Kalapse

This thread calls for a classic Skanberg, just imagine Thome is Yermin and Danks is Giolito or some shit.

One more time because I would never forgive this with any manager, the video is timestamped. ANY manager who says this should be fired on the spot, I don't give a fuck who you are, it's truly embarrassing.

Let's hope Abreu is on track, excited to have him back. Not much history against Jordan Montgomery, TA and Jose have a couple hits.

3 game suspension for a slider that got away.

Love the enthusiasm for early game threads, keep it up gang!

Damn. That's insanely good.

This is what I was thinking

Why are you so concerned with stupid shit?

How does that not get your blood boiling? He's trapped in a world that no longer exists.

Seriously, what are new fans supposed to do with this? The whole notion of unwritten rules is beyond fucking stupid and no new fans are going to buy into it, they're going to be turned off immediately. Just watch the Jomboy video, that's what new fans are doing, speaking of something that's the opposite and great for baseball, that guy.

It's an insular sport with limitless unwritten rules and they wonder why it's dying.

That's the thing, TLR is under the impression that he and all his other old school, retired jags own the game of baseball and are the arbiters of its rules when in reality the game belongs to the fucking players, they're the ones putting in the work, it's their game and they're going to play it the way they choose. The old fuck needs to get over it.

???

fucking chills down my spine reading that, far and away my least favorite turn of phrase in sports

It's remarkable to me that if Yermin had gone up there and just stood there like a pitcher in 2021 and struck out on 3 pitches down the heart of the plate he'd be respecting the game far more than hitting that homerun according to TLR.

I just need a few minutes free, later this morning.

HOLY SHIT FUCK OFF FOREVER YOU USELESS PILE OF SHIT

Really wish this wasn't happening at the beginning of a road trip, next Monday is the next home game.

So how's Tim doing right about now?

He just keeps fucking talking, all he had to do was not say stupid shit but Sox media keeps tweeting quotes

This is the one right here, this wooo boy.

I'm pretty sure he bats shitty players like Lamb at the top of the lineup to get them as many ABs as possible to knock off that rust, which is doubly funny.

cool

He tends to make weak contact early in the count, therefore he does not go deep into counts which is what one poster implied, I corrected him. I never said he sucked, those are your words.
