March 30, Year of our Pedro 2023, OPENING DAY
- Thread starter LogansDad
- Start date
It's very cozy here in my recliner. Players should wear warm undies, fans should wear parkas and hats. And sunglasses.
15MPH wind at Fenway currently, 26F wind chill.
I have no clue how college players handle it in March with metal bats. I hope the batting glove technology has improved since I played little league.
The giveway today should have been this, (with Red Sox logo on the chest) instead of a magnet schedule.

NordVPN is essential for those of us in-market this time of year…
I'm extremely excited this year, though if you ask me on opening day most years, I would have probably said the same, even when we come in last. But this year, for the first time in ages, I don’t have meeting scheduled during the game. This day can’t go by fast enough, though with a pitch clock and Kluber on the mound, the game just might.
Win today! My daughter has never been alive for a Red Sox victory.

They are no longer made with fixin’s from the Wegman’s Hot Bar.
BTW, the Natick one is pitiful. Why haven’t you mentioned this?
And we're back! I truly have no expectations for what will happen this year... so long as we take some strides over last season, it should be worth staying tuned in. But for now, hope springs eternal. Go Sox!
Always love to see the Opening Day lineups across the majors, just to remind myself where some random players wound up in the offseason.
Adam Frazier with the Orioles, for instance
1. Cedric Mullins (L) CF
2. Adley Rutschman (S) C
3. Anthony Santander (S) LF
4. Ryan Mountcastle (R) 1B
5. Gunnar Henderson (L) DH
6. Ramon Urias (R) 3B
7. Austin Hays (R) RF
8. Adam Frazier (L) 2B
9. Jorge Mateo (R) SS

Spring training was fun and no stakes, and the WBC was a great taster, but real Base Ball is finally backed and I'm beyond ready. Let's goooooooo
I like seasons like this. A fun team that I don't have incredible hopes for. If they win anything it's gravy.
If I was a kid I'm sure a cartoon about the Red Sox would be awesome. It seems incredibly poorly made but also had a pretty impressive voice cast.
I’m with Nip. I have zero expectations and assume this team misses the playoffs, yet the team has some intriguing and fun parts to watch this year. Here’s to surprises!
Hope has sprung, eternally.
Spring and summer are sooooo much better when the Sox are interesting. Make Wednesday night games in July worth watching. Keep playoff dreams afloat until Labor Day.
Just don't suck from the jump. Please.

BOOOOOO. I was hoping it would be his walkup song

Being able to choose the SF feed on MLBTV makes it that much better.
Also, bobble head Papi watching over me today.
Yup. And they have some pretty notable pitching in the high minors and a wide open budget. This division is clearly the toughest in the league, and both the NL East and West are also stacked, so that's saying something.
Ehh, I prefer it this way: start a new fun relationship with the fans on a new team.
That lineup is . . . interesting. Yoshida 4th? Kike 9th?
