Rich got richer, all the fringe contenders and non-contenders lost big.

Would you consider the Red Sox the "fringe contenders?"

Who needs David Price when you have Doug Fister!

ERA dropped 1.2 points last night and honestly, when it was 5-0, I was thinking "well, just need 4 more runs and I'll feel comfortable"

5/13 with RISP last night with 3 of the hits coming with 2 outs (scoring 4 of the 6 runs). Nice to see. Sale tonight.

fister back to 2014 form last night.

No. But on second thought maybe I should consider them that way.

 

[Rock Strongo]

fucking devers...

 

[soxfan1468927]

Red Sox have scored 6 or more runs in a game without hitting a HR for the 11th time. No other team has more than 8. 11-0 in those games.

rosario called up

 

[Rock Strongo]

Rosario will be called up to the big leagues ahead of Tuesday's game against the Rockies, Tyler Kepner of The New York Times reports.
Spin:
The Mets' front office has been peppered with questions as to when their highly-touted prospect would finally get brought up to the majors, and as was speculated last week, Rosario will emerge with the Mets on Tuesday. He'll presumably become the everyday shortstop for New York immediately, although no official word on that front has come forth. No corresponding roster move has been made yet to allow him to be promoted, either, but those things should occur sometime prior to Tuesday's game time.

 

[Rock Strongo]

never thought id have 2 mets prospects on my bench in anticipation of call ups lol

 

[redseat]

No. But on second thought maybe I should consider them that way.

Yeah the way they have been playing as of late
