    It is very obvious that Caleb Ort's velocity is what makes him intriguing and why they are reluctant to dump him. Why do people keep expressing amazement when they get rid of other jabronis and keep Ort ?

    You know how many jabronis throw fire and suck?

    How many jabroni's have a .492 OPS Against in 50 IP and get DFA'd?

    Baby, I'm amazed.

    1. German’s velocity (97.9 mph) was greater than Ort’s (96.3).

    2. Are you saying German (age 25), Thad Ward (age 26), Darwinzon Hernandez (age 26) and Jacob Wallace (age 24) are a bunch of jabronis, but Kaleb Ort (age 31) isn’t?

    Don't blame me. Bloom is calling the shots here. I am just trying to explain it. And Ort does hit triple digits with his heater.

    His heater averaged less than German’s.

    I’m not blaming you, but I am questioning your assessment of Ort and several of the Sox former younger pitchers…

    All this angst about Ort.

    Ort is an odd word.

    "Ort" as defined by the Free Dictionary by Farlex (over 13 billion served): 1. A small scrap or leaving of food after a meal is completed. 2. A scrap; a bit. (Cookery) a leftover fragment of food.

    How can any of this pertain to the recipes on Bloom's Menu for force-feeding the masses? Tried fitting into a seat at Fenway Park lately? Small portions...

    Kaleb Ort also sounds exactly like Kale Abort.
    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.

    You Ort and Brasier Crybabies never let up with the questioning of Chaim's assessments of these guys.

    More sound advice, for another overrated leafy green.

    I prefer Swiss chard, which also grows in any condition and regenerates through the postseason... anything is better than basic lettuce, always out of contention by mid-July.

    Nope.

    And yet we get accused of supporting Bloom’s every move by people who find even the notion of saying “Dombrowski had far more opportunities to extend Betts” as sacrilegious and worthy of excommunication…

    Surprisingly, according to B-R, there has never been a major leaguer named “Kale.” Nor one named “Romaine” nor any other green leafy. Closest I could find was former Twins 3b Mike Cubbage…

    Bloom waited to add Bleier until Eck retired; now there's no NESN announcers that make fun of guys who toss salad.

    Kaleb was the name of the best dog to ever roam this earth. He was a yellow lab-shepherd mix and lived to be 20 years old.

    R.I.P. my old friend.
