Another frustrating game last night and the Rays are a pain in the fucking ass. At least we're not at the shitty Trop.
Gotta get back on track here.
Haven't looked at the forecast - seemed like there was going to be some rain in the area. Not sure if we'll be delayed, but I'm guessing we get this in one way or another.
Agreed. Seven innings and no runs. We couldn't ask for better than that.
What the fuck is wrong with this bullpen.
I'm so tired of getting hurt by such garbage players.
Insurance, please!

This asshole. Steve Pearce. And...fuck, there’s a bunch of others I can’t think of but, seriously, fuck Steve Pearce.
Too bad Didi GIDP, otherwise that's another run on the board.
Looks like Cashman Jr. is in to pinch run now.
They’re a great team, no arguing that. They’ve also been pretty healthy. Not an excuse for the Yankees by any means. Only mention it b/c the Cora ball washing is nauseating.
Let's start a new streak!
He won the Cy Young like three years ago, it’s really not that surprising. And did you see what he did to the Yankees? Ugh
It's all coming all aces for them.
Tonight 1-1 top 8, one out, they send up Holt to pinch hit and he jacks the first pitch off the facing of the 2nd deck in right for the eventual game winner at Philly.
I think they said during the broadcast tonight that the last time a team was on pace to win over 100 games at this point in the year, yet were 10 games out of first place was like... the early 1900's?
Fucking insanity.
I am going to love it so much if this Red Sox team falls short and wastes this regular season.

What's up with Boston, are their players on roids? They are all playing out of their minds?! 10 k from Porcello? Get outta here!

Take a look at his career stats. His nickname should be ‘Anomaly’.
Also, Porcello was mediocre his entire career before the out of nowhere Cy season and has been up and down ever since. As much as some people here like to bitch about Tanaka, his stats this year are about the same as Porcello's.

He pitched fantastic tonight. Only one Philly touched 2nd base all night against him and that was on the solo HR he gave up.

I hope they go all out to get the single season wins record, similar to how Cleveland went all out last year for the winning streak record. They set their sights on the wrong goal and hopefully the Sux suffer a similar fate.
As far as your other point, I think this is what you might be referring to?
30+ Games Over .500 at 118-Game Mark AND
10+ Games Out of First Place:
2018 Yankees 74-44, 10 GB of Red Sox
1906 Pirates 76-42, 13 GB of Cubs
1906 Giants 74-43-1, 15 GB of Cubs
Crazy stuff there but Yanks just have to keep focused on their business and playing well. They can't get down about how good the Sux are going.

Yup - that was it.
112 years... insane.
Hoping for the same thing, though. That the Sox just burn themselves out trying to set records or whatever. They can have the division at this point. I want nothing more than an ALDS against them.
Hopefully it'll all come crashing down in the postseason, but this team had a horseshoe enema before the season.
If the Red Sox win 100+ this year - which it appears they will - it will be the first time since 1946.
This team isn't that. It's a really good team, but it shouldn't be THIS good with such a top-heavy lineup, and Betts is a really good player but he's having a Barry Bonds season, which is ridiculous.
That can't be right. Judge hasn't been out that long. You sure you didn't mean 11-9?
No problem.
It wouldn't surprise me if they did go 21-19 if he was out that long. They miss him big time,IMO. Stanton is doing his part and Didi is pitching in lately too but Judge is so important to the whole lineup and him being out affects more than just his one spot.
