2017 Red Sox Regular Season Thread

Encouraging start:

Brady retrieves stolen jersey from Gronk, both get back up OK

Sox out to 5-0 lead

No Price tweets so far

Life After Papi

*****ing about the Saux is a New Englander's birth right....so let the *****ing begin...
Four games into the season (two mired by rampant Saux projectile vomiting) ....
The Saux have managed to score runs in 4 of their 38 innings. More specifically, the Saux have scored runs in only one inning of each game.

Cold weather, missing starters, small sample size....yada yada.....a development to be watched.

This lineup, as currently constructed and performing, is hacking away with ferocity. Moreland, The latin Mr. Lean, and Benintendi are swinging at most every pitch that approaches the plate (Benintendi does put the ball in play)....plate discipline has yet to take hold. Reign 'em in Chili

Have the Saux heard of flu shots?
Or sanitizing?

Why does Farrell have faith Joe "trouble with the strike zone" Kelly can perform effectively in high leverage situations (bases loaded)?

Bring on the warm weather....fast.

*****ing over...until next time.

OK, what's the MLB record for that in a season? Fewest innings actually scoring at least one run, by a postseason-qualifying team? Or if you wish, most innings shut out?

We're off to a great start on this one, for sure!

Can't change the past. What - or who - can spark the Sox offense?

It was (pleasantly) surprising to see all of the shrewd, outstanding moves the Sox made in the '12-'13 offseason; credit Cherington? Anyway, I wasn't suprised they went all the way then.

But then they started behaving like morons, starting with their (mis)treatment of Lester. It's like winning the WS made them totally stupid.

Facts that may only interest me:
Last night (5/3/17) vs. Baltimore, 5 of the starting 9 Saux position players had yet to hit a home run in 2017.
Speaking of home runs, the Saux continue to lag the AL in home runs ....15th out of 15....trailing the 14th place White Saux by 7 HRs and the 1st place NYY by 27 HRs. Relying on bombs to win games typically produces hot & cold results.......but relying on a surplus of singles strung together to produce runs is a formula that fails in the ML

CSN on (my bad) /Felger and Mazz hate baseball. That's perfectly okay, but that does not mean morons like them get to ruin the game by destroying the rules.

I grew up watching baseball, with endless fond memories, including many a late night going into extra innings. I like baseball, apple pie, Chevys and the American flag.

The fact is that today's culture of impatience and a five-second attention span is destructive, wrong and not healthy.

All those in the NFL and national and local media who have despised the Patriots for generations now are perfectly entitled to; but their actions to destroy its logo and uniforms and discredit its accomplishments are not acceptable, regardless of the present owner's complicity.

I didnt think there was anyway Judge was going to beat him.

Judge is admittedly impressive to watch.

At least until the PED bust.

Brock Holt actually went to an all star game as a participant. Dude is not a major leaguer

We're in and we have a chance.

Wondering what role Price will play in the postseason.
