Anderson steals 2B. Then gets a great jump to steal 3B, but it's washed away when the pitch nails Yolmer.

TA7 is a line drive machine. Another bullet in to LF, scores Garcia.

Bad baserunning by Luery there, but he gets away with it on an Eloy grounder to 3B.

Moncada turns around a FB as a RHH and splits the gap for a 2B.

Next batter, Jones serves up a belt-high FB to Saladino who crushes it to CF for the HR.

Nate Jones has NO idea where the ball is going. He just took a line drive off the heel of his foot, and the ball lined straight to Moncada who caught it for the out. Made the throw to 1st base just in case, but that ball was caught cleanly off of Jones' heel.

Rodon has looked very good. His slider is biting and he's locating it well enough to get swings. Eloy smashes a chopper up the middle that Davies was able to stab and turn in to a double play. 0-2, 2 double plays for Eloy.

TA7 slashes a line drive to RF on a 3-2 pitch. Nice job going with the pitch.

Eloy strikes out and then gets called for interference, so Jay is out trying to steal 2B as well. Odd looking play.

I guess we will just have to disagree what the phrase "having 9 lives" means.

Disagree. There are 0 people better in this org right now.

Very nice inning for Rodon. A few ugly swings and jam shots. Inning ends with a slick over-the-shoulder pop-up caught by Alonso. Great play, Yonder, now kindly get the fuck off this team.

Adam Engel has played exactly 1 full season in the major leagues. He only has 1 more month worth of games than Moncada right now. Hell, even Leury Garcia has played almost 100 more games for the Sox than Engel has. Weird to say that he's been given 9 lives. Now AVI was given 9 lives. He played over 600 games for the Sox over 5 seasons and was bad in all of them expect 1.

I am off work today, so I look forward to watching this entire game before I have to go play volleyball tonight.

I would have to say Cole, Rendon, and Grandal probably fit best. But if Tim Anderson just continues to be an ok, 2-WAR player, then I'm great with them signing Bogaerts and either trading Tim away, or finding a new position for him in CF.

They didn't "eventually respond only when she escalated it". She never sent them an email. When she said she "asked for credit", she is referring to when she quote-tweeted their tweet and said that the video was actually hers. They have 1.5M followers on twitter. They can't possibly expect to see 1 person interacting with their tweet, especially by quote-tweeting it, because now it requires them to actually go to her page to see the tweet, instead of them reading the comments under their own tweet. She made no real effort to try to get their attention, and then made no real effort to respond to their attempts to reach out to her.

I think Robert starts in A+, but I could see Madrigal starting in AA, or if not, only spending a couple of weeks in W-S before getting promoted. I think ending the season in Charlotte is a real possibility. He's very advanced.

If Vaughn can play 3B or LF, I am all-in on him. Really not hoping a 1B-only guy is the 3rd best player available come June.

I feel like at some point he should be "allowed" to sign with a team, but I have no idea when that is.

You can't possibly expect them to vet every video that gets sent their way to figure out where the original source is from, right? Look how many versions of the same videos you can find on Youtube and Facebook uploaded across dozens of accounts. How do you expect them to know who the original is, especially when it's snapchat videos. I would argue they DID respond to someone who wanted credit. They reached out to her dozens of times across a variety of platforms to get her attention. She has every right to just say "No, fuck off" even one damn time and then she's totally got all the sympathy. But acting childish and ignoring them to.....try to prove a point I guess, makes her look bad too.

Costco has a Boston Go card for $94, and it includes access to pretty much every museum, tour, activity in Boston, including bike rentals and trolley rides. So I think we are going to get that card. It lasts for 3 days, and includes one "Premium" ticket. We are going to select Whale Watching ($55 value) as our premium ticket, since we already have Red Sox tickets. https://www.smartdestinations.com/boston-attractions-and-tours/_d_Bos-p1.html?pass=Bos_Prod_Go&allInc=true

This doesn't enrage me as much as the Padres late interest, because we already know by this point that Harper's reps and the Phillies had been meeting, and their interest was well established from the beginning. This isn't the Phillies suddenly getting the bright idea to go after Harper in mid-to-late February. This more likely points to them being more in on Machado, and then once Machado signed with the Padres (February 19th, qualifies as mid-late February), then the Phillies shifted all their attention to Harper while Jerry farted on his hands.

I mean.... she could have just replied, even once, and said no. Meh.

Burdi pitched in the AFL this fall and was hitting 97. Not near his 101-102 from college, but he was eventually shut down from the AFL as a precaution due to arm fatigue. He's good to go now. I expect he would start in AAA Charlotte and make the major league club sometime in the late spring or early summer if he responds well. He was pretty close to being called up in 2017 before he got hit with TJS.
