[LogansDad]

Wow, that was a rocket. Tough luck for Duran.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

111 EV, ugh

 

[Ale Xander]

Did Cambridge Pavers get a Buy 1 Get 99 Free deal with NESN?

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Wong swung at three balls. Jesus he needs to get his head straight

he guessed Wong

 

[Fishy1]

Three balls that inning with EVs of 100 or higher, only one of them for a hit

 

[InsideTheParker]

Hope Wong gets some contact.

nope. WTF no pinch hitter for Wong?

We only have the other Hamilton to play C and he's bad.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Grossman = annoying

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Bello's last batter now.

 

[LogansDad]

Oh, this is terrifying.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Phew. Bello is a KEEPER.

 

[LogansDad]

Excellent. Great fucking start, kid.

 

[JCizzle]

Extend this man!!!

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

What a stud. Best thing to come out of 2023.

 

[dhappy42]

Him and Duran.

 

[LogansDad]

Professional hitter.

 

[pk1627]

Bello and Duran (and Yoshida) going to take this team places.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Him and Duran.

And Yoshida

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Him and Duran.

Not even in the same time zone

EDIT--and I'm happy about what I'm seeing from Duran. But a 24 year old legit ace is a different level.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Bello should have made the AS team

 

[strek1]

Bello should have made the AS team

I think so too, even at the expense of Jansen

 

[InsideTheParker]

Oakland is defeating Detroit 12-2 in the ninth. So annoying of them starting to win games again before arriving in Boston.

I hear you, but I read it as best pleasant surprise of 2023. I expected Bello (and Yoshida) to be good. Duran has been a pleasant surprise.

 

[Minneapolis Millers]

What a stud. Best thing to come out of 2023.

Greg Maddox without the glasses or two foot wide strike zone.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

I love me some Justin Turner.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Needed to get that one

 

[strek1]

Nice to get that pest Seager out.

 

[LogansDad]

Nice play!!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The Blizzard!

 

[pk1627]

Hamilton is now my fave player of all time

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Hamilton and Turner are defensive stalwarts!

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Starting to hate Garcia.

 

[LogansDad]

I am excited about not having the Sox face this offense anymore after tomorrow.

 

[LogansDad]

Sick.

 

[dhappy42]

I want to hear Wakes story about dugouts before they added fences.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Martin has been pretty great

 

[pk1627]

you are going to be a bit disappointed in Sept

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The slumping Alex Verdugo with yet more weak contact.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Martin has been pretty great

He's been terrific.
I'm very torn on him. In general, I don't want to sell, because I like this team. But Martin would likely bring back a pretty nice package.

I’m inclined to keep him; it’s not like they don’t need him next year.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

you are going to be a bit disappointed in Sept

and October!

 

[LogansDad]

I know it looked routine, but that was a nice play by Wong.

 

[staz]

LOL Wong dekes everyone

 

[Al Zarilla]

Two down!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Brayan at the moon water!

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Hey now, you're an all-star, get your save on, water

 

[pk1627]

and October!

That’s the spirit. A Bello gem is what we all needed

 

[LogansDad]

GOOD DEFENSE WATER

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Agua

 

[patinorange]

Nice win! Water.

 

[Ale Xander]

Watah!
