Curious if Red Sox Stats on twitter and Red Sox Stats on Bluesky are the same account? Weird that they post different content.

I figured it was legit since they promoted their Bluesky profile on a pinned post on twitter. I don't use twitter enough to notice the content was different though, which seems weird.

In my experience, Bluesky doesn't have critical mass yet on a lot of sports content, so I'm sorta not surprised some of the RS Stats content is different. Chad, SoxProspects, Jen McCaffery, PeteAbe, Rob Bradford and a few others in the media have a presence there, but the team itself doesn't yet have an account. I find the same goes for the B's, C's, and Pats. I have my theories on it (more V&Nish), but for better or worse X still remains the primary social media output for quantity.*

*Ironically and apropos of nothing (#RIPCafardo), yesterday's California tsunami warning broke on Bluesky about 15 minutes before X. Go figure.

teams are starting to show up on Bluesky, the Lions are there for instance. maybe more importantly though, the news outlets are there. ESPN just launched their account and The Athletic's had one for a while now. The guys who exist only to drop scoops like Schefter and Shams might not migrate, but given how Twitter actively supresess linking to outside work any self-promoting journalist is better off abandoning the hellsite.
