4/17 City of Dreams
- Thread starter Remagellan
- Start date
I think Bobby D has better range and reaction time than Kike at SS and I don't want him playing that position.
was .404 last year. Going up today. Feel like he'd be a sub-3.00 ERA guy with Tampa's defense.
Don't understand at all, given the weather, why they're playing this game. It looks like it's pouring again.
It’s insane the degree to which the results of so many of his starts do not match up with what actually happened.
This one not quite as drastic as he has given up some rockets too.

You gotta wonder if he's going to overthink at some point - go for strikeouts above all.
So they wore the Marathon-themed City Connect jerseys for the first three games of this series and then are wearing home whites with Boston today? Interesting.
Wore CC jerseys Friday and yesterday, regular home whites with #42 for Jackie Robinson day on Sat and the now traditional Patriot's Day uni today.
They let it get to a 2-2 count with two outs in a monsoon and then they decide to call for the tarp.
With the super early start I'd think they'd have a whole day to try and finish this one. Is there some kind of limit on how long they wait out a rain delay on a non-official game?
What's the weather look like? (for out of town-ers) Is this gonna inevitably get done at some point or can we keep our fingers crossed it gets called?

They should be able to get the game in later this afternoon. The Angels don’t want to travel here on an off day later this season.
That seems to be about the best we can hope for. Our bullpen seems pretty taxed although anything from the Angels BP seems better than facing Ohtani.
Winckowski or Kutter available for a couple innings today or is it going to be piecing it together one-by-one (with Jansen at least avail today if it miraculously gets there!)

Because of the new balanced schedule, I think it will for the Sox. Probably not the Angels.
I think all three wildcard teams come from the East because they play each other so much less.
Of course they can be. I just think the Yankees, Jays and *fingers crossed* the Sox will be.
I don't believe in the Rangers, really. Not yet anyway. Astros will win that division despite the slow start. Mariners are certainly a threat.
If this was later in the season with limited days to try to squeeze it in and both teams out of contention it doesn't get rescheduled, but that's not the case ATM. If postponed it will be reschedule when the travel schedules best allow for it.
I'm guessing the makeup will probably be August 31, which might be about one or two weeks too early for both of these teams to have given up. Though I could be wrong...
O's pitching will let them down all year.
I'm giving the Rays the division now though hopefully they come back to earth in a painful way.
Had a second so answering my own question...
Looks like Crawford went 3 on Thurs so should be good for a couple? Winck 3 on Sat so doesn't seem likely.
Schreiber/Jansen back-to-back Fri/Sat but off yesterday of course. Bleier probably available (eh). Ort/Brasier back-to-back past two days.
Maybe a throw day by another starter if they get desperate?
But seems like at least Kutter going to have to throw. Hate to waste Schreiber or Jansen if they're still behind.

Red Sox have the worst first inning ERA in MLB, at 11.64. Yowza.

It's still raining here in the Pioneer Valley, about 2 hrs. W of Fenway. Don't know what that means for the game, but ....
