  1. We sure are practicing pickoffs right. We've had 3 already this year? Put that guy in charge of the entire org.
  2. Astros playing shockingly bad. Just narrowly avoided being swept by Seattle.
  3. Uh, Boston was literally on the team for a decade. We've had plenty of scum bags come and go.
  4. Playing in that dump at any time is mildly annoying. Maybe Shields will park a catwalk ball.
  5. That was my guess as well but couldn't find confirmation. I suspect you are correct.
  6. He def seems like a guy that likes to have a "good time". I famously dinged him for looking out of shape and drinking beer at English soccer games during his comeback. I think he's a guy that loves baseball but also loves other things, which is great. You got too many guys on our squad like Vaughn that it just looks like their entire brain is devoted to baseball and when they are scuffling it is not easy to get those types turned around.
  7. He's hurt. Shocking I know.
  8. Of anything and everything to complain about Getz the Cease trade is pretty far down the list. There was severe downside risk holding him (arm blows up) and it was asymmetrical to the upside of holding him and hoping he pitched like a true ace for three months. Getz will get a year or two. We're just going to have to suck it up.
  9. 6:50pm local starts been a thing for a couple years now. Helps gets the parents and kids home before 11 on schoolnights.
  10. TBD against TBD at the moment although as pointed out below, it appears Clevinger is in line to make his debut. I'll update when the Sox post the lineups.
  11. It was Jim telling the NCAA to eat a dick. Sign stealing isn't illegal. The NCAA changed the rule on advanced scouting in the mid aughts after the smaller schools complained they couldn't afford it. Any advantage UM had from advanced scouting was minimal at best given teams self scout and change signs constantly. There was never any "player safety" issue that was just jealous rivals piling on out of...jealousy. The NCAA and CFB commishes both said UM won fair and square and was the best team. Jalen Milroe said it as well. When ND wins a title I'll come congratulate you guys, I won't b**** and moan about the advantages ND has in every catholic prep school in the country or make fun of you guys for dodging UM and ending the series. I'll just say "nice natty, how long has it been?".
  12. Nice to see some bats get going and Garrett perform. At this point I'd settle for just being a 110 loss team with some promising young guys.
  13. lol right down the middle 3-1 popped up weakly. he'll k now.
  14. Gavin and Eloy have earned playing time. Vaughn has earned a trip to Charlotte.
