    How interested are you in the Red Sox at this point?

    It's a marriage for me. I committed and I'm not going to cheat or leave. That said, it's depressing how far and how fast they've fallen. Every time I ponder X wearing Padres' brown I wince. It's sad. I've defended Bloom's approach for the entire time he's been here but the evidence is piling...

    Choose your Red Sox house

    Um...yes, that is exactly what I was referring to. I got the timeline wrong though that has little bearing on my opinion on the matter. And I'm struggling to understand why an ambush needs more than one event to be described as an ambush?

    Red Sox penalties for "Spygate"

    Red Sox penalties for "Spygate"

    I'm concluding that the players who benefitted from Watkins illegal sleuthing would not necessarily have known that the benefit came as a result of its illegal nature? His role allowed him to help break down the opposing team's signs so getting info from him was a normal thing to do? Or am I...

    1975 World Series re-watch

    1975 World Series re-watch

    I have listened to this WS several times (on cassette tapes which indicates my vintage) It is ALWAYS striking how quickly the game gets played, and how clean the audio is. No adverts inserted. No plugs. No bullshit. Just the game, the crowd, and some occasional insight. It is a pleasure to dip...

    Chris Sale 2020 - TJ Bound and Down

    Apparently non-essential/Covid19 surgeries are still available at least in some parts of the country. This from today's ESPN (3/23) SAN DIEGO -- Hard-throwing Padres reliever Andres Munoz and minor leaguer Reggie Lawson underwent Tommy John surgery Friday. Both right-handers were injured...

    Chris Sale 2020 - TJ Bound and Down

    I would like to see someone from the Sox step up to the mic and tell the Nation what Chris's plan is for the timing of the surgery. Even if the date itself is unknown, it would be good for us fans to at least understand their thinking (team's and Sale's). Where have you gone Dr. Andrews....the...

    MLB 2020: We're Playing, but We Can't Agree on Anything

    MLB 2020: We're Playing, but We Can't Agree on Anything

    Sigh..my FBB draft is tonight. Ironic, no?

    Chris Sale 2020 - TJ Bound and Down

    I dunno. Isn't it just as likely that both parties felt that surgery was an option but not necessarily a clear cut one? They might both have laid out similar fork in the road scenarios and left the team and Sale to choose which road to take.

    Chris Sale 2020 - TJ Bound and Down

    My guess is that it's just not a clear decision. The team docs and Andrews saw partial tears or some level of inflammation that is typical wear-and-tear on a 30 year old MLB pitcher's elbow. He could pitch at X% effectiveness for Y period of time, ...perhaps. Surgery means no effectiveness for...

    Chris Sale 2020 - TJ Bound and Down

    That's the bummer in it for me. IF he had gone back to the mound last September and this had happened then, we'd be six months into his recovering in time to lead the rotation in '21.

    Reserving Judgment... But What Did the Sox Do and How Bad Will They Get Hit?

    Makes me think there is a lack of consensus among the powers that be with regard to the potential consequences of the report. They are asking multiple spin doctors to predict the backlashes that will come from dozens of organizational and individual parties. Lenience will yield wails of a fix...
