iWiN4PreP Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Remember to get your Pick 2 Click in: Who's going to the game tonight? Who's going tomorrow to See Kopech? Rick Porcello comes in with an impressive 15-7 record and a 4.19 ERA. We all know about Giolito's recent success... he comes in with a 10-9 record and a 5.85 ERA.

Sure, their fans were annoying when they won 3 WS in 8 seasons, but whatever they had waited a while. Anything that pisses off the spoiled, entitled jankee fans is ok with me. BTW, I call the Yankees the jankees because that is how Ozzie used to say Yankees. Edited August 30, 2018 by Jack Parkman 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both fanbases are insufferable but Red Sox fans are the AL version of Cubs fans which is about as bad as it gets for me lol Edited August 30, 2018 by TheTruth05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge difference. You don't have to talk to Sawx fans about why players such as Micah Hoffpauir and David Bote suck. Cub fans, OTOH....... Sawx fans have quieted down significantly over the last 5 years. Fanbases have a right to talk some trash after they win a championship. To me, jankee fans and Cub fans are the most insufferable fans in all of baseball. If you include all sports, you can put Leafs and Cowboys fans right up there with them.

Also why i mention Red Sox fans, those 2 fanbases overlap heavily. Anyway, hope Gio continues his second half revival today. Really would be nice he developed into a mid rotation starter with TOR glimpses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really would be nice he developed into a mid rotation starter with TOR glimpses. Because of the quality of the offense he's facing, If they got 5-6 IP 3-4ER and 5 K out of him today I'd call that a win. Anything better is gravy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCCWS Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Good news is no Sale or Price. Yoan must be jumping for joy. Bad news is next year's draft pick may suffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tray Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 It will be interesting to see Benintendi and Moncada tonight. I wonder how many Sox fans would rather have had Benintendi than Moncada in that trade. I wanted both of them. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 I think tonight the focus will squarely be on Gio. Gio looks like a changed (or older version?) pitcher. This is clearly his toughest challenge to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWiN4PreP Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Don't like having Smith in there. I'd like to see more AB's by Omar. However, if it's for defensive reasons.. I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 No reason to put the Sawx Yanx or Cub on a pedestal. We have a team that can pitch and likes to battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
