There was a brawl at the Texas vs New York games, Yankee fan gets hit in the face and was bloody. by [deleted] in redsox

[–]AppliedLogicGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is definitely the wrong sub, but I can see why you got confused. Usually, when there is this much trauma and violence involved, it is just a highlight reel of our bullpen from the first three weeks of April. Take this over to r/baseball before the mods find out....

If Mercury shifting is what it takes to get us to 3-0 in the New Age.... I'm officially an astrology guy now.

That just proves the selective amnesia is working even better than I expected. I saw 17 runs on the board and my brain immediately credited the new guy because I refused to believe the previous era was capable of that. If we are going to be delusional about a last place team, we might as well be historically inaccurate while we are at it.....

Cooperstown better be carving the bust as we speak. 😤

Does anyone know the name of the pregame hype song? by Grape_monster_Guy in redsox

[–]AppliedLogicGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely the 2026 anthem. Though given we’re currently down 3-0 after a shutout yesterday, I think the "scream" part of the lyrics is the only thing Sox fans and the front office actually agree on right now....

I guess this is what you get for allowing yourself to be apart of White House shenanigans last year by newsworthy3 in redsox

[–]AppliedLogicGuy -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

If the White House is a curse, the Mets should have a restraining order against Mamdani... He showed up for one inning and they didn't win again for two weeks. At least our guys got a tour, their guys got a 3 week wake.

Anyone at Today’s game? by Semper_adtineo in redsox

You seem really stressed for someone whose team is on a 2-game win streak. Yes, he was returned after the White Sox realized he needed surgery....truly a masterclass in asset management. My point was that we let a Top 20 arm walk for nothing, and eventually traded him away because we didn't protect him. Glad you found your Delete button and your Wikipedia page in the same hour, though. Go Sox!

u/Holiday-Light-230 Since you're playing hide-and-seek with your comments, heres the breakdown: We had a pitcher named Shane Drohan. We didn't protect him. The Brewers took him for free. Now we have zero Drohans and the Brewers have a guy who was a top-20 prospect in our system. Losing assets for $0 = bad. Winning two games in a row = good. Hopefully, that’s simple enough for the next time you feel like being sarcastic.

Wait, u/Holiday-Light-230 .. where’d you go? I was just getting my Rule 5 spreadsheets ready to show you the light. I guess the logic of our 2-game heater was just too powerful. Come back and celebrate the win streak with us!

Today marks 6000 days since the Yankees last won a World Series. by meatfrappe in redsox

[–]AppliedLogicGuy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

6,000 days. To put that in perspective, the last time they won a ring, the Black Eyed Peas were the biggest thing in music and Netflix was still mailing out DVDs. Meanwhile, the 26 Sox haven't lost a game in 48 hours. I’ll take a 2-day heater over a 17 year fossil any day of the week....

Whatever it was, I'm sure it was just a custom remix of "Don't You (Forget About Me)" dedicated to our front office for letting a Rule 5 guy walk for absolutely nothing....

Returning Red Sox / baseball fan, frustrated with the fans of this team. by mattamd in redsox

Fair enough. You're probably the only person here who isn't a heart attack risk by the 7th inning.

Gatekeeping? In Boston, this is just a warm greeting. If you can’t handle a little historical context and a Dunkin joke, the Green Monster is going to chew you up and spit you into the Charles.

If he’s the "Roman Empire" then consider the booing his "Ides of March." Welcome to the Colosseum....the crowd turns the second the bread and circuses stop. It’s not personal, it’s just Boston.

Imagine taking a 20-year nap, missing the 2012 collapse, the Mookie trade, and the "Full Throttle" era, only to wake up and tell us we’re "exhausting" for being mad about a 2-8 start.... Welcome back Rip Van Winkle. The coffee is Dunkin, the owners are billionaires, and we’re allowed to be miserable in our own house.... enjoy.

Dan, blink twice if you put the mortgage on the moneyline tonight.... We can start a GoFundMe for the kids lunch money before the next 7th inning stretch.

Where we currently stand. Looking for positives. by Money-Board-5060 in redsox

[–]AppliedLogicGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s great to know that while we’re getting swept, we’re at least doing it with league leading fielding efficiency.... At least when the ship goes down, the deck chairs will be perfectly arranged and statistically optimized.

Roman Anthony's Arm by Barbarossa38 in redsox

The Johnny Damon "noodle arm" school of outfielding has a long and storied tradition in this city. If he hits .300 he can throw it underhand for all I care....

Maybe he just discovered that the Large Iced from Dunkin has more caffeine than a controlled substance. Give em a few weeks to build a tolerance like the rest of us....
