    Rest in Peace, DaveRoberts'Shoes

    I only knew him from here and what a great guy. This is just awful, terrible news. My sad condolences to all, especially those who knew him well.

    Tim Wakefield has passed away from brain cancer at 57 (10/1 update)

    I'm still processing this terrible news but I'm here with the rest of you to pay tribute to a guy who loomed large in many of my moments of joy and pain. More than that, he left a long trail of people who loved and admired him for the person that he was, for how he showed up, over and over. Sad...

    Lou Brock passes at 81

    He made baseball so exciting! Big reason I enjoyed watching with my folks. RIP. Posnanski's piece on Brock's life is in The Athletic and is free. Looking forward to reading it. https://theathletic.com/2048837/?source=twitterhq

    Rick Porcello, Mr. Met

    I voted for Rick in the Tommy John contest whenever I got the chance. I'm happy I never won it. One of my fond memories of him was (as a Tiger) how he acquitted himself when Youks charged the mound after a HBP. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvHF8KSkw5g

    MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred: ‘We Need To Make A Change To The Baseball’

    This. But how do you begin to find "the happy medium? Who doesn't remember a young pitcher bleeding all over his white pants from blisters? A young Justin Verlander comes to mind, for me. He made changes to compensate. Health issues in the population of pitchers must be really hard to track...

    I remember it too, Rip. After that he was always surrounded and handled his celebrity with aplomb. Cathy handled it all with extreme grace. The tributes and memories posted here along with thoughts of Stiffy have consumed my afternoon. Time well spent. Cathy, you are in my heart! It was Bob's...

    Rocco Baldelli: new Twins manager.

    Please explain, don't be coy! Good for Baldelli! He went through some tough times (healthwise) while he was in Boston and handled it with such grace.

    Are you worried about the Red Sox?

    Of course I am worried! I voted 6. The Sox won their last 4 out of 10, mfys won their last 8 out of 10. DUH.

    Let's Talk About MLBTV

    I asked for and got a refund. NESN is available in my area but NESN+ is not. I called and spoke to an actual person (so points to them); I pointed out that I was out-of-market for the Red Sox when they are broadcast on NESN+ and therefore ought to be able to watch on MLBTV. The guy was nice but...

    David Price 2017

    If I may refer to the Price-Eckersly thing... there was just a quick remark in the game commentary by Eck that Rodriguez was kinda his protoge (meaning Price). Sorry - I just thought it worth a mention.

    Jerry Remy: Players should 'learn baseball language'

    Is MLB still trying to expand the game to the rest of the world? Just wondering.

    Jerry Remy: Players should 'learn baseball language'

    I was truly shocked to hear him express this sentiment. My husband, who is not a native English speaker (but speaks it well) was downright offended. I watch a lot with the tv muted, so I have to ask - has Remy has been more off-the-cuff this year than previous years?
