Did I just listen to Sean McDonough read a promo from a plumbing service whose tag line was "they give a poop about your pipes"???

Yes you did.

Some of these ads they have to have McDonough and Castiglione read copy on are ridiculous

I got friends there I’ll see tomorrow at Bruins event to ask if boos

I would have cheered - I watched Heidi interview him - he is very happy in LA

I don’t think he and wife were comfortable here

Yes - I’ve heard it a lot

Kinda dumb but probably sells

Fenway you there

Felger said today multiple times he thinks Mookie wanted to leave

 

[Fenway]

The ATV streams are top notch in terms of quality. Commentators also seem fine to me (can't get the Boston local announcers). If only DAZN could even be half that good.

Verdugo beautiful swing

Hope he gets it together and stays

I like him

No reason he can’t hit 20 homers with that swing

I'm gonna give Apple this. I don't know if other streaming apps have incorporated this for sports but this is the best thing I have seen in the sports media world in some time. If I could sync up a Pats game on TV with Zo losing his mind on the call I would love it.

Lance Lynn serving up BP tonight so far

Who's ready for Story Time at Fenway Park, bay bay!!!

 

[Johnnyduke]

I had no idea Mookie plays 2B sometimes...why would you not him playing RF at Fenway?

Jason Heyward has like five or six Gold Gloves.

Pedro in the radio booth

Jason Heyward has like five or six Gold Gloves.

He doesn't appear to be having much of a defensive impact this year. I didn't even know he was still around, figured the hole in his bat finally did him in.

 

[CDJ]

Love Pedro so much

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Yup. That is how I see you looking st a spreadsheet instead of players

 

[EvilDead]

OK, he's a lousy owner........what makes him 'scum'?

Moreno's problems are many. He stopped caring about the city he was in after purchasing the team in 2002 and doing the whole "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" shtick, he consistently meddles in the affairs of his team's front office and has been doing so since 2006, and he never wants to spend over luxury tax which hamstrings his front office even further. That's not all though, as Moreno has no qualms with cheating either when he hired Bubba Harkins to give spider tack to players so they could doctor game balls only to fire him when the heat was turned on and made Brad Ausmus the scapegoat as well despite being out of the loop on the matter.

What makes Moreno scum is the fact that he ignores the off field well being of his players and staff, an attitude that makes him very much liable for the overdose death of Tyler Skaggs. Especially when it was a member of the training staff that got Skaggs hooked on fentanyl, but Skaggs couldn't go public with his demons. As far as I'm concerned, the blood is on Moreno's hands, especially given the fact that he damn near blackballed Josh Hamilton when the former slugger admitted to relapsing into alcoholism. Moreno's lack of care for his players is downright despicable. The Angels' minor league system under Moreno also has the worst reputation in the league, with many players not being able to pay rent or eat properly. They ALSO unceremoniously fired scouting director Eddie Bane (as well as his loyalists in the scouting department) over a power struggle, despite Bane being the reason for them getting Mike Trout in the first place. Since then, he's continuously furloughed staff while Arte is still taking a paycheck.

The man's a garbage person who allows his organization to be beset with systemic problems at every level to the point it got someone killed. And yet he won't be punished for it. Moreno's managing style is being given the two thumbs up by MLB because he turned an in debt franchise into being worth $3 billion and making money hand over fist on Ohtani and Trout merch. Meanwhile he gets a sweetheart deal to redevelop the land around Angels Stadium and make even more bank.

Nice copy and paste.

Who was it?

I typed that out all by hand, because I really don't like this person. Arte Moreno is a vile person.

Thx for the help, but it's technically not available here in Germany, I already tried last week.

 

[quietbruinfan]

Pivetta is unreliable. The Dodgers should thank him profusely.

 

[CDJ]

Pivetta was unfortunately trash

 

[Mione134]

Gotta find a way to win this game

That you qualified it by stating you typed it by hand makes me doubt that

Oh wow. Another baserunning mistake costs us another promising inning

THe amount of little league bullshit this team has pulled over the past 3-4 years is truly insane.
