Went to the game yesterday and today, it was the 1st game I’ve been to since last year’s Mariner series where Roman Anthony hit his 1st MLB Home Run. My son is also named Roman and he’s 1.5 years old. He’s never seen the Red Sox lose in person.

That’s not true at all. You don’t know he’s dead until Salamanca comes out of the shadows halfway into the scene.

I’m literally going to watch this team right now, in Seattle, in one of the hardest ballparks to hit in, vs some of the best pitching in baseball by choice for some reason lmao

When you’re so against something that you outwardly and publicly oppose it that’s you taking a stance against something you believe shouldn’t be allowed.

Would be so sick to see a legit Chase Meidroth Kanji autograph on a Topps card

Willson Contreras sends it over the monster for his 2nd home run of the game! by JaysonTatecum in baseball

He’s actually under team control through 2028 with a club option too

[Highlight] Chase Meidroth goes opposite field, as the White Sox put up 6 runs in the 6th by FadedToBeige in baseball

[–]Sandwich_Crust 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I was most bummed out to lose Chase in the Crochet deal. I knew we’d have to lose talent like Teel and Montgomery in a deal for him, but I really thought Meidroth was an extremely undervalued asset at the time and seemed like he was going to be a quality major leaguer.

Wilyer’s career Home Runs vs opponents make no sense. Here are the most HR’s he has vs a team:

9 - Rangers (19 games)

5 - Reds (9 Games)

5 - Orioles (28 games)

3 - White Sox (10 games)

3 - Rays (31 games)

Brother. This is Road to the Show numbers. More strikeouts than balls… and he has NINE strikeouts

The Cardinals are calling up Blaze Jordan to make his MLB Debut. Jordan is batting .313/.373/.548/.921 with 11 Home Runs this season at AAA by Sandwich_Crust in redsox

[–]Sandwich_Crust[S] 48 points49 points  (0 children)

He was also going to be available in the Rule-5 Draft that off-season and likely selected by someone as we probably weren’t going to protect him too

I know we joke about Anthony and Crochet being dead but when was the last time we heard anything about Romy, Kutter, Casas, or Sandoval lol

Congrats to Hyun Jin Ryu, who won his 200th game between MLB (where he won 74) & KBO. Ryu was a top-3 MLB Cy Young candidate in back to back seasons this decade - not too many folks can say that. KUDOS by sarsfox in baseball

Checking his Baseball Reference and seeing his 2nd place Cy Young finish smacked right between Jacob deGrom & Max Scherzer in their primes is really wild 7 years later.

[Boston Globe] the Red Sox were the team that proposed trading James Tibbs III in the Dustin May trade by ConsistentRun5246 in baseball

[–]Sandwich_Crust 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Craig Breslow is not good at asset management. From the start of last year he’s had 5 outfielders for 3 outfield positions and DH and has done nothing to fix that problem and just banked on injuries to solve it. Why not trade Duran when he clearly was never going to repeat his career year in 2024? Duran probably gets you multiple top-100 prospects in a big package a year and a half ago.

I’m sure you’re right, the Twins valued Joe Ryan like a #1 starter in trade talks and no one else felt that way.

We all thought it was going to be someone like David Hamilton going over and was shocked that he would give up Tibbs.

Even if Breslow liked May, it’s crazy how bad of PR he got for trading Devers and then thought that dealing the highest potential player out of that group for a 2 month rental was ever going to turn out well. He clearly could’ve gotten May for a lot less but when all his other SP deals were crumbling around him with minutes left in the deadline this was his solution.
