She seems very well qualified. Congrats to her - that's a fantastic accomplishment.

I'm embarrassed and disheartened. What a disaster of a hire.

That's fantastic. Congrats to Luis.

Now that's an unexpected reference

Sorry to be that guy, but can't watch at work. What did he say? Appreciate it.

christ, guys. try using your heads.

lol

God. Now I have my hopes up for a Harper addition. Thanks, guys

I thought he said he hurt it rounding third, not on the slide?

Collins up means EE won't be DHing, right?

Yep, this is exactly correct.

Fucking embarrassing. And is that the Cubs bench hollering after damn near every pitch?

I've been pretty pro-Ricky overall but this decision was such horseshit that it's unbelievable. What in the hell could he have been thinking?

Jesus. take a deep breath and get a grip, man.

Would guess there's going to be significantly more than 25% capacity, but it's too early to really say.

Nonsense. Every word of it.

gross

Greg's reputation goes as Abreu goes

Not to derail the thread with positivity, but could the Sox win all of the following: Manager of the year Executive of the year ROTY MVP

Red Line Series FTW

Probably a stupid question here - if something like a grip could potentially dramatically improve his spin and make him a much more effective pitcher, why hasn't the organization done that at some point in the minors or last offseason? Do organizations track this kind of spin rate etc for high end pitching prospects? I don't mean that as a critique of the organization or of Cease, just curious.

If the Sox don't have $6 million to spend in a year where $45 million is coming off the books and they're legit contenders, then they might as well just fold it up. I get what you're saying - covid, etc. But man, I can't describe how infuriating that would be.

I'm a tad bit drunk (oops) but if the sox find a way to land Ninmo without giving up Dunning/Kopech, and sign Bauer - they're the 21 WS favorites in my mind. That's an automatic grand slam offseason, and there's really no reason it shouldn't be possible.

Rough first inning - looked like jitters leading to loss of command. The game thread was absolutely ridiculous. He looked really solid other than that, though I do think it's fair to wonder why his velocity wasn't quite as high as advertised.

Tuned in to the 9th for the potential no-no. Cubs announcers are awful. Wow.
