A couple of teams going nowhere on a beautiful day. Go outside and enjoy the weather. Or take advantage of the date like Gronk would. Pregame for the Celtics, or postgame from the Bananas action last night.
Attending in person is always a good reason to watch a game. Fenway has a good Cubano, too, at El Tiante’sFor some unknown reason, they have a terrific Cuban sandwich at Guaranteed Rate. I'm going to get one for lunch and maybe stay and watch a few innings of AAA ball.
Cooper has a HR against Flexen, so I bet we see him at 1B or DH.2:10 ET
Kelly v. Flexen
Who's on First?
I assume Dalbec is on third. Naturally, Devers is the only one on the roster who's hit Flexen well. Get well soon, Big Raffy!
Geaux, Sox, Whoever You Are!
Today is the 37th game since Cooper and Smith were acquired. Smith has started 24 times at first (today is #25), Cooper has 9 starts, Dalbec has 2 and Romy has 1. Was it ever really Cooper's job?It appears Smitty has usurped the 1B job from Coop.
Good thing this is in Chicago, because Red Sox fans shouldn’t have to play MLB prices for a WooSox lineup.
- Jarren Duran (L) LF
- Enmanuel Valdez (L) 2B

As it turned out the White Sox series was "tough".Zack Kelly’s first major league start today. Looks like something of a bullpen game today, as the Red Sox gear up to head back to Boston for a stretch against the Phillies and Yankees. Bullpen game maybe makes sense here - I’d expect Kelly, Bernardino, and Slaten to see some action, while giving the starters an extra day heading into this tough stretch of games.
I suspect that many of the off-days he gives to other regulars are with their consent and perhaps at their request. Meanwhile, Duran and Rafaela don't seem to want days off.For a manager who has always rested players on a regular basis Cora rides Duran like a horse.
More like WoofSox, if you ask me.Good thing this is in Chicago, because Red Sox fans shouldn’t have to play MLB prices for a WooSox lineup.
I thought the same thing. Due to injuries and lack of talent this is a AAA lineup.Good thing this is in Chicago, because Red Sox fans shouldn’t have to play MLB prices for a WooSox lineup.
At least he's still throwing a no-hitterKelly is perfect through 1.
Fantastic report.The Cuban sandwich was fantastic
You can't go wrong with a Cuban for lunch.For some unknown reason, they have a terrific Cuban sandwich at Guaranteed Rate. I'm going to get one for lunch and maybe stay and watch a few innings of AAA ball.
Where do Hawaiins vacation? New Jersey?Back home from vacation and obviously I didn't miss anything. Two shitty teams trying to see who is the shittiest.
Oceanside California this trip. But anywhere is cool...maybe not New Jersey though! Just fun to get off the Island.Where do Hawaiins vacation? New Jersey?
A vacation is often best when there's some change involved. For example, as a denizen of So.FL, I'm generally excited to find a city with a bookstore, a fine-arts museum, public transportation that isn't a bus, and more than two types of weather. And those things that go up and down. . .hills! That's what they're called. Those things are amazing.Where do Hawaiins vacation? New Jersey?
