    April 24. 2024 Beat the Heat

    I feel like the first sentence of this post was probably written last year too. We kept thinking these guys would pull their heads out of their asses long enough to beat a clearly inferior team that was lucky to even make the playoffs and then they didn't.

    Crawford and Houck and pray for... What rhymes with Houck?

    Cleveland 4/23, Houck Yeah, It's Tanner Time

    Not sure that it mattered, but that looked like a really terrible throw by Refsnyder.

    Which Current MLBers Will Be In the Hall of Fame?

    I don't know how anybody who saw Nomar's career arch can think that Soto is a no doubt Hall of Famer at this point. Yeah, he'll probably make it, but all it takes is one fluke injury. Regarding pitchers - It seems like the standards for starters has been ridiculously high. Jim Kaat should...

    Feats of Mookie - 2024 Angst & Awe

    I thought the whole premise was that he moved the best player in baseball history in order to finance No No Nanette.

    Wave of mutilation: The latest injuries

    Which is better to have in this new era of pitcher injuries, the guys you crossed out who suffer catastrophic Tommy John injuries and miss an entire season once every 3-4 years or a guy like Whitlock who, through various smaller injuries, misses 10 starts every season? Not saying this to be...

    4/17 vs Guardians

    Under 2 hours? That's incredible.

    4/17 vs Guardians

    How the hell do you miss the bag? It's just amazing the dunderheaded plays this team makes night after night.

    Feats of Mookie - 2024 Angst & Awe

    Hah, people love to say "Flags fly forever" but I guess in Frazee's case, that's not true. I wonder how many fans realize the Sox won a World Series while he owned the team?

    4/16 - vs Cleveland - in which Dalbec finally gets a hit

    Casas challenging Steve "Psycho" Lyons, circa 1985. Edit - Doh, beaten to the punch by @Hyde Park Factor!

    The Fenway Park Experience

    I went to a White Sox game in Chicago on the night of OJ's white Bronco chase in 1994. The guy I went with, a White Sox season ticket holder, had never caught a foul ball in his life until, the night before, he caught two fouls balls in the same Robin Ventura at bat.

    4/14 Galileo's Well-Handled Balls. . .

    Neither does our middle infield.

    Wave of mutilation: The latest injuries

    At least this maybe explains his bad start at the plate.

    The Juice Expires (OJ Dead at 76)

    Growing up as a Dolphins fan in upstate NY, I was constantly taunted by my elementary school classmates with "Miami's got the oranges but Buffalo's got the juice!" I remember the Dolphins generally winning those games though.

    23-24 UConn Basketball: Stephon's Castle

    You sure got that right.

    NCAA Men's Final Four Thread

    And it's totally apples and cucumbers. If this was 20-30 years ago, wouldn't a lot of last year's NBA crop still be in Storrs? Wouldn't some of the era's kids stay around for 4 years and really develop?

    Red Sox, Ceddanne Rafaela agree to contract extension

    Good move by Ceddane signing a long term extension before Tommy John surgery!

    What to do with Yoshida?

    Name recognition? Who outside of Boston has paid any attention to him, other than to say, "Yoshida? That guy who nobody else valued that highly but the Bosox gave a gigantic contract to?" It's not like he's some former All Star or once hyped prospect.
