Milkman delivers

Seems the “1/0 Runs Allowed” stat is unnecessary. He would obviously have to give up at least 1 run to get the loss.

Happy one-week belated birthday. Now I have two reasons.

I just checked the score, then opened and logged into Soxtalk to ask this. Who the f*** is Vinny Capra?

I understand where you’re coming from, but if we’re seriously rebuilding towards contention, you absolutely should care what they get back for one of maybe three guys on this roster with any value to other teams. We need to hit on small moves like this.

I can’t imagine how anyone would take the side of the Bears in this situation 😆

Four straight game threads. Definitely in uncharted territory now, gentlemen.

Pope Leo didn’t go to St. Rita. The most famous alum might be Ray Manzarek.

I mean, I feel like the “highest scrutiny” is covered by making sure you’re six feet under the dirt before they let you in. I’d say that’s enough of a deterrent for current players that are HOF-level.

And I don’t gamble, so I should be Soxtalk HOF eligible.

What an odd start time. Anyway, has anyone started three game threads in a row since the start of 2024? This feels like a record.

This one seems in hand. Gonna check the final from bed because I’m exhausted. Good to see Vargas looking like a major leaguer this season.

LOL I unmuted the game for the bottom of the 9th because I figured it’d get interesting. And it did.

Fulfilling my duty to create this. Have at it.

Like the title said, happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there.

With Elko coming up, Leo can scratch off one miracle. Must be nice to knock the first one off so early in his tenure, really takes the pressure off for sainthood.

I’m sure all popes get asked similar things from their countrymen. I believe he went to Mendel, so not sure if the Leo thing has anything to do with the high school. It’s a very traditional papal name. But I wouldn’t doubt that the connection occurred to him, and maybe it made it that much easier of a choice?

To be fair, I’m sure he’s the type of person that bears no ill will towards the Cubs and is likely to say that he likes all Chicago teams. I doubt he was able to catch many MLB games over the last 30 years.

This is surreal for me, and I’ve never exchanged words with the man. I can’t even imagine.

His brother was my grade school principal for a long time. He’s said mass at my church. Very surreal.

There’s a Mr. Perfect, Curt Hennig, story in which a softball (or baseball) bounced off his head, but still landed in his mitt because, well, perfect. So there’s that, Greg.

Condolences to his family. He was a large part of this site, and therefore a part of the lives of everyone who spent any significant amount of time here. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. Rest in peace, Alex.

It’s a character’s name from Seinfeld. Good chance the posters aren’t related at all.

Things are looking grim, JR. Probably easier to just sell the team.

There’s a Norm Macdonald meme that would fit perfectly here, but I’m not exactly sure it wouldn’t result in a suspension.
