    I'd rather watch a prospect pitch than watch some of those lineups they put out against the Angels last weekend, honestly.

    Pitcher that is too good for AAA. 23 years old. 4 pitch mix. Maybe a back end starter? At worst, he's going to have a career in the bullpen somewhere. He's definitely an MLB talent.
    4 pitches, but only the slider is consistent effective--not so the fastball (very hittable), splitter (not controlled), or the changeup. Nevertheless, he is the right guy to get another shot.

    Shit, I'm at the age where if I'm not in the big leagues by now, I'm washed up. Better start looking for a day job.

    At my age, Julio Franco was still a positive bWAR player, so I got that going for me.

    I'm still in the public accounting trade at age 66. I have Fridays off now and my legit working hours per week are down to 20-25.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    I mentioned this home stand being huge for the red sox considering who they’re chasing. A nice 9 game winning streak would be nice.

    I hope the trainer slips Winchy a Xanax between innings to calm him down. He did reduce his ERA by 3.00 in one inning

    A starter coming up from the SOX farm is always a cause for anxiety, but Winck wasn't drafted by the SOX, so he has that in his favor.
