Bumgarner and Greinke have produced more offense tonight than the team with the reigning MVP.

Well, the 2018 Red Sox went all season without a 4 game losing streak. Right off the bat, the 2019 Red Sox are threatening to lose 4 (at least) straight games.
I can't take the beginning of the season THAT seriously. I mean teams go 1-5 throughout the season all of the time, even 95 win teams.
And no they won't get loudly booed at the home opener if they come limping home. Whatever they do in 2019 does absolutely nothing to dampen how amazing 2018 was and if they're getting loudly booed at a ring ceremony then the Red Sox fans are morons - and I really don't think they're that stupid.
The one thing that is worrisome is that it's almost like the baseball gods are trying to scream loudly, "Everything that went your way in 2018 will not go your way in 2019!" The talent is too good for the Sox not to get straightened out, but they're sending early signals that they can be extremely vulnerable this year. Despite that, it's still not the end of the world. If you're gonna suck, might as well get it out of the way and do it early. Better than being crappy late. Hopefully they get their act together soon.

We had righties on the bench. Yet 3 LHB went to the plate resulting in 3 K's. The one RHB got a double. It was the 7th at this rate they (Moreland and Holt) probably wouldn't have got up again this game. I don't get it...

So...what is it about Oakland? I think we are something like 15-35 here in their last 50 games.

Seeing 4FB: 87 mph. Why is Sale still pitching? I seriously think it's mechanical, not medical. God, I hope you’re right. It’s certainly possible with the abbreviated ST (the starters are all prob in that late-ST dead-arm stage given the reduced innings) and the shoulder issue last year, which could’ve messed with his mechanics and delayed smoothing things out over the winter. 5 mph is just a LOT of velo drop, but certainly early plant, dragging arm, etc could do it. My fingers and toes are crossed.

And tbh, I’m feeling a little better given what jimed said, because like chrisfromNC, I can’t imagine he’d stay in for 6 with an injury. LOL though, because other than JDM, the only part of the team playing well is the ‘pen.

One foot higher: homer. One foot to the left: homer. One tenth of a second quicker: safe at third.
Edit: If he had bothered to run hard out of the box: safe at third. That last one ain't luck.
