    4.1 - Easter Funday

    They showed a stat on the post game show that said, so far, the Sox are throwing 4 seam fastballs at the lowest percentage in the majors. We will see if this is a trend that holds over the long-term, but it may be a change in strategic direction brought about by Bailey.

    4.1 - Easter Funday

    Did SoSH ever settle on a nickname for him? I like Spanky, or Greasy Reese.

    MALCOLM GO...to jail

    I thought when you went to jail you couldn't pass Go. Or collect $200.

    Revised contract predictions for Snell and Montgomery

    This is where we will have to disagree. The list of highest contracts ever given out to pitchers is littered with albatrosses. There are probably more horrible contracts on this list than players who lived up to them. And of the top 3 on the list, none will be able to start the season. Only 2...

    If You Want Big Air, Pull My Finger - Ski and Ride 23-24

    It's cheaper, drier snow, and lots of fun in the Okanagan. Apex, Big White, Silver Star, or Sun Peaks up in Kamloops are all great BC options. Or Red, Whitewater, or Revelstoke if you can drive a few hours more. I've lived in B.C for going on 15 years, and I've skied one day at Whistler. I...

    Lucas Giolito has an elbow issue.

    Didn't you hear they're bringing Heinz Ketchup back? This just shows how far this ownership group is wiling to go put the best product on the tube steak.

    If You Want Big Air, Pull My Finger - Ski and Ride 23-24

    I would love to be able to tell you! However, neither my wallet, nor my trashed 56 year old hip are up to it. I'll see if they can also replace my wallet when they do my hip! What's on the menu in the Selkirks and up near Smithers? I know both areas well. I was never able to realize my dreams...

    If You Want Big Air, Pull My Finger - Ski and Ride 23-24

    Have you checked these guys out before? A friend of mine in Kelowna and his family run it. You have to heli in from Valemount (not exactly near much), but you could drive there in ~ 6 hours from Calgary or Edmonton. Basically it is located on the top of the Continental Divide above Jasper...

    Stacy Wakefield has passed away from cancer

    Blessings and peace to the Wakefield family. As someone who lost his Dad to pancreatic cancer in my teens, in a span of 6 months, it hurts to hear this and think of how those kids have had their world shattered and turned inside out in the last year.

    What if you could change one thing - Red Sox edition

    It's the Lynn/Fisk late contract debacle for me. A completely unforced error, which led to a New England icon leaving, one who wanted to stay. https://www.boston.com/sports/boston-red-sox/2021/02/12/carlton-fisk-fred-lynn-mailed-contracts-red-sox-1980/ This was before a salary cap. There was...

    MLB suspends Trevor Bauer for 2 years with no pay

    I saw this link on my FB feed yesterday that really pissed me off, both about Bauer, but mostly about FB. The link was actually quoting Jonathan Papelbon (I wonder if this got algorhythmed to me as a Sox fan), with Pap saying it's ridiculous that no one will give him a chance. And I think I saw...

    Jerry Reinsdorf had a meeting with Nashville mayor Freddie O’Connell

    It's not lakefront, but riverfront. It's about half a mile from the lake.
