Red Sox/MLB 2023 Regular Season - 154-8 still possible - Adam Duvall suffered fractured wrist, no timetable set for his return

I will cross that bridge if we get to it, but we will not be getting there on Opening Day.

Fair enough, but that's what I see coming. They suck, he stays and keeps doing what he's doing because they not only approve of it, but they directed him to do it.

Aaron Judge 2nd pitch and homerun.

It's fun to keep star homegrown players

Whoever decided to schedule the Giants to get Arson Judge'd on Opening Day was a genius

 

[Mione134]

They’re gonna throw $500 mill his way, cornering the Japanese market is getting Henry/Werner turned on

They should genuinely go all in after him. And then get that pitcher Sasaki whenever he gets posted.

Ohtani wants to play in meaningful games. Big crowd's. If the Sox play decent and get a WC spot (which is my prediction) have Yoshida (which he is already good friends with) push for it. He'll probably be interested in us. I don't care how much it would cost

HAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Right up there when they kept saying Bogaerts was their number one priority!

What kind of spell do these owners have over certain people?

I'm on the side of not having much buzz for the team. I think they could be good if everything goes right but they have 3 healthy hitters who have plus power and the rest of the lineup are contact hitters who don't run the bases well. I think the pitching will be fine if they can stay healthy.

 

[CDJ]

Contact oriented lineups are gonna be more valuable now that there’s no shift. Our lineup should put a lot of balls in play

 

[McGarnagle]

I love the organist playing peppy music while the crowd doesn't care at all

I agree that the defensive rules make it easier for contact lineups but i think you still need to run the bases well to get the most out of that kind of lineup. Right now i think they are in the 4 games under or over .500 range but if Yoshida and Turner can be double machines and Casas becomes the 30 home run with good plate discipline hitter that it looks like he could be they might be a playoff team.

So glad I passed up free tickets to today. It is cold and aside from the starters, this team is full of unknowns

That's how you know it's definitely not October.

[McGarnagle]

No juice from the crowd during introductions. Only Raffy and Kike got much of a pop.

 

[McGarnagle]

I guess they couldn't even get James Taylor to care enough to sing the anthem anymore.

 

[FrankerC]

Yoshidas teeth are going to blind me if sun catches them just right.

Can't blame them

 

[FrankerC]

THORTY!

 

[Alicat]

Thorty with the first pitch w/ DMac, Dana Barros and Papi

 

[McGarnagle]

THORTY

 

[FrankerC]

Red Sox should hire Thornton. Threw that right down there. And he can spark something up.

I think he's happy in Florida but so glad he still comes back to Boston to do things

 

[FrankerC]

Did they just show Eovaldi on that season hype video?

 

[Walkenthewalk]

Hoping for the best (whatever that is) but bracing for some tough sledding. Go Sox!!
