MLB Daily Thread: 07-19-17: top 3 in the AL East win as Yanks make big trade

[black francis]

hes at 117 for the last 3...but plays GG defense. no one expected anything over .250 from him. the offense is an absolute bonus to every sox fan.

can you play gold glove defense without actually having one?

 

[soxfan1468927]

so, similar to jackie bradley?

"learning curves suck"

Update on JBJ since this thread was made:
Remember when.............

.296/.374/.518

Ranking among qualified AL CFers in that span: 1st in BA, 1st in OBP, 1st in SLG, 1st in HRs, 4th in runs, 1st in RBI

Damn sounds like CF is a shitshow in the AL

Watched him in Kong Skull Island last night\

Is there something contractually that puts Samuel L. Jackson in every movie ever made?

Springer is better but he's spending a lot of time in right

lol why did you watch that?

btw, if you ever get chance to watch "masterminds"...hilarious true bank robbery story. zach galifinakis, kiristen wiig, owen wilson, jason sudekis, etc. total redneck idiots.

My girls wanted to watch Kong

Actually a fantastic cast, but the movie was awful

Just a big Zero

I wouldn't call it a bonus. He's hitting right about where I want and expected him to hit.

I don't know if you remember a guy who played for the Red Sox a long time ago named Brian Daubach. But he had a penchant for sneaking in those occasional four to six-week insane hot streaks where he looked like an MVP candidate as well.

I remember Daubach

I'm sure you do. He was a face of the Red Sox during the pre-Henry/Lucchino/Werner Red Sox punching bags that the Yankees loved to torture.

its one of those movies that got bad reviews, but you watch it and go "that was a lot better than i thought".

its all SNL as far as the cast goes, but it works....and its a true story.

guy has the hots for a girl he works with at loomis fargo (armored car drivers). she talks him (galifinakis) into robbing it for her and a gang of redneck friends.
worth a watch.

Todd Frazier calls playing for the Yankees a "dream come true"

I remember Bruce Hurst being a pain in the balls against some bad 80's Yankee teams

 

[AlpacaWine]

That's one thing that I do love about the Yankees. It's similar to the Celtics in basketball and the Canadiens in hockey. No matter who you are, if you grew up a fan of the sport, you have to get the goosebumps just a little bit at the thought of playing for that team.

You put on that uniform and it means something just a little extra special when you go to work.

lol
He is a local kid so he's maybe one of the hundreds I actually believe

Still the piece of that trade that least excites me

Gets completely overshadowed because he played next to Clemens.
