Man it feels so good to see a hitter who works the count, doesn't expand his zone and wait for his pitch and put a good swing on it.

Really tired of Hill. Same with Brasier, Familia, , all the lefty relievers.

Casas's career .333 Iso is unsustainable.

That's some easy power there for Casas. Catching up to high heat is not easy but it looks effortless

if we can resign Devers and have 2 lefty mashers, we can count on many runs and we will effin' own the Toilet for the next 5 years

I always think it's lame how they try to con fans out of potentially valuable souvenirs. That's the first career HR by Casas; for all anyone knows he might end up in the Hall of Fame some day. And there's no intrinsic reason to think that ball is worth more to Casas than it is to whatever fan caught it. Like, Casas is around major league baseball stuff all the time; there's no reason to think he does or should make that ball into a fetish-object or whatever. Whereas for the typical fan that's as close as they'll probably get to that aura. (Which is exactly why catching even foul balls is a fun little part of the ballpark experience for fans.)
Anyway, more power to whatever fans choose not to play along with it. That's your little piece of history, guy who caught the ball - enjoy it! Or sell it to someone else who will!

HE IS THE MOTHERFUCKING TRUTH! I suppose I am the only one on this site who finds gratuitous profanity crass and unpleasant. Several times I've mentioned my opinion to moderators without effect, so I will reply this time to your post. Now I'll move along as a message board is about the sensibilities of the majority not the (apparently) too easily offended few. Or maybe just me. I'll likely check in again in the offseason threads. Later all. Go Sox!

I don't know brother. I can see for like a Bonds 757 HR ball or something. However, this ball has more importance to the player, assuming he cares about it. Casas been playing ball from what 5 years old, makes the bigs, hits first homerun. I would hope that fans would feel it is more important to the guy who has done the labor and deserves his trophy.

Been a while since I looked at our lineup and felt like it wasnt horrendously weak in 2 or 3 spots. Not saying they win this game but at least I feel like they can compete.

I wonder if Hill gets another contract offer from Bloom ?
