Mostly on the phone, so don't get that on the phone

Yeah they playing this one tonight

Rain seems to be wrapping up for the day

I live in Hoboken.

Any chance you could swing by this gay bar in the Bronx and kick Dirt's ass for me when he gets too lippy?

Pains me to say I don't see the Sox losing this October

They are like 80-5 at Fenway, don't see anyone winning a series going through there

I'm assuming they all cycled their steroids where they will not be weaker in October

Stranger things have happened. Yanks were supposed to get swept by Cleveland last year. Didn't work out that way.

'01 Mariners were supposed to steamroll everyone, Yanks (who would have finished 20 games behind them) took them out in 5 games.

Hopefully, Yanks have Judge and Sanchez entrenched in that postseason lineup to combat the lefties the Sox will be throwing.

They'll find a way to avoid DeGrom. They always dodge the aces.

Yes please! And as a catcher would be even better.

Scariest thing about the Sox, to Coras' credit, this lead has allowed them to make sure Sale will be fresh in October, and he's pitching on an unbeatable, superhuman level right now

Any good Romine has done behind the plate is offset by the fact that Cecil Fielder can steal a base on him today

Still can't think of one they haven't faced

Yup, they can put Sale in bubble wrap for the last 3 weeks of the season.....

Let's ask David Price his opinion...

 

[cerealboi]

David Wright playing rehab games.

Thoughts, in this order:

1) Remind me, who is David Wright.

2) Oh, yeah, I thought he retired years ago.

They always have Hiroshima to fall back on.....He's been serviceable.....

Only 33 million left on his deal

For a .190 hitter in the minors, he's doing ok

That was a pretty incredible performance by Sale yesterday. And the fact that the Sox pulled him after 68 pitches speaks to exactly what you are talking about. He has a .20 ERA and a .636 WHIP in his last 8 starts.
