    Abreu has been possessed by Dewey Evans. Can one be possessed by a living person?

    It's not so relevant to Red Sox fans , but are the Angels the most snake bit and self destructing franchise in Baseball ?

    Arte Moreno, owner, turns down a $2.5B-$3B offer for a team in a nowhere market ( sub LA) with no real estate to expand upon.

    They let Shohei Ohtani go away with NO compensation because they thought a Japanese player would appreciate the loyalty factor over the new contract value.

    They keep Trout, who now needs knee surgery , so he will once again miss the majority of this season as he has for multiple prior years. They owe Trout 6 more years at a total of $200MM+, for a guy who will be a DH at best. Untradable now.

    The team is already sub .500 and sinking (11-20)

    I'll never complain about our owner/FO as long as clowns like this are still operating MLB franchises.

    Obviously, clowns are not limited to circuses. Moreno probably also thought that Ohtani would commit seppuka if he had a bad season.

    Is Connor Wong the unsung star of this season, to date?

    If I told you in March that Wong and Abreu would be top 3 on the team in OPS, would you have said, "You are crazy!"

    We might be able to sign Ford and make it 3.

    Wong better be good. The SOX traded Betts for him.

    No matter what you would have said in March I'd still say "you are crazy." Just like the rest of us.

    "Who's on 1st?"
    "Who's the 1st baseman along with what, where and when."
