Anyone go down on their way to the team bus?

Not on the way to the bus, no...but I heard Reyes strained his ribs climbing the steps. He should have used the granny rail.

Screw baseball

Was Manny Ramirez a rookie with Boston?

 

[Rock Strongo]

the red sox have had MVP winners at ever position but 2

name the 2 positions

also, name the position that has the most MVP's for the team

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Ill take it, i wont complain, I just think Cleveland right now is better than Houston

Yep.

Houston was overrated. 19-22 in the second half.

If they face the Indians, they better pack two lunches, because Chief Wahoo will eat one.

No.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

No.

Then screw baseball

I don't care for that WHIP...that will be their undoing.

Wait, you said last TWENTY-FOUR games??? Holy schneicke...

Yep. Dating back to 8/3.

They're averaging 6.44 IP/GS too.

Granted, they've faced some weak offenses (TBR & KCR) during that span, but 11 of the 24 games have been against three of the top four run scoring teams in the majors (BOS, COL, NYY).

the sox are 6th in runs

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

I'm not scared

That's because you're already dilated.

Indians starters K'ed 36 Yankees over 28.2 IP when they faced off earlier this month.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

the sox are 6th in runs

11th, actually, but you're right - I botched that.

Mea culpa. Not sure why I thought they were top four.

I didn't drink last night, so my mind's a little fuzzy this morning.

 

[Rock Strongo]

sale and pomeranz are a combined 24-10

the rest of the starting staff is 25-33

of that 2nd group, porcello and fister are a combined 11-22

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Yeah, I'm guessing people are forgetting that Cleveland actually played in the World Series last year? And that was with no pitching staff?
