My ideal off-season for the rotation would be E-Rod declining his QO, signing elsewhere, and then us bringing in one of Stroman or Gausman. He got hammered last night but I like Stroman. He’s a smart guy. Knows how to pitch and he should be able to play for as long as his arm holds up.
Pick up a pick while possibly upgrading (or at the very least cancelling out the E-Rod loss)
Stroman is friends with Price though so I wonder if he’d want to play here.

I know this is heresy given the win streak, but I absolutely f'n hate the Yellow uniforms with the fire and fury of a dying sun. I acknowledge this statement makes me an old traditionalist fart, but I can't reconcile a team called the G## D#### MotherF####KING RED SOX wearing Yellow and Sky Blue.
Rant over..

The Mets left Stroman in about 30 pitches too long last night. Don't they know that they have 28 guys on the roster?

I personally like the Neon Piss uni’s, whatever makes the baseball gods deliver a victory
Also Sale’s stuff looks pretty crisp rn so that’s neat

All of this said, I don't care what they wear if they win out the rest of the season. They could do a Nuke Laloosh all garter belt uni and I'd begrudgingly watch as long as they ruin the Yankees season.

Obviously, Kiké was looking for something other than a middle fastball.

Hop in a time machine with me for a second. We are going back to 2012 when the Red Sox have two outstanding SS prospects named Xander and Jose. Is there a single person from this board that would ever say that nine years later Iggy is the one pushed to 2B by X on a 2021 team?
Separate from the time machine, having the entire infield (Devers, Dalbec and Vazquez plus those two) be completely home grown is immensely gratifying. Don’t bother me with the detail that Schwarber is actually starting at 1B tonight. You get the drift.

Anything going that far in the air should require a boarding pass.

JD has really patented the weak swing on the first pitch to ensure he goes down 0-1 with a swing that couldn't possibly produce anything even if he made contact. Almost always on balls out of the zone. No one does it like he does. Still working tonight!
