They're meant to be a lot less formal than other threads on the forum, so to moderate them the same way would be silly. However, we do ask posters to maintain a certain level of decorum in these threads, and we plan on moderating the Gameday threads a little more actively this season. In particular, we ask that posters refrain from being overly repetitive with their posts (if you've made your point, let it go), refrain from monopolizing the discussion (if you are making more than a couple posts in a row, you probably need to slow down a little bit), and of course, follow the Ground Rules ( link). The point is to make these threads worth participating in and fun for all posters, from our long-time fixtures to people just signing up today. -The Management

Guess I’m not loving the pitching matchups.
But, the offense is beginning to cook, and I’m optimistic about the series. Fenway should be rocking.

I read a stat yesterday that is almost hard to believe. If the Red Sox are 3-20 in games they have given up an unearned run, then that makes them 32-14 in games they have not give up an unearned run. Wow, if they could clean up the defense, the Red Sox could be one of the best teams in the league. Big if, but they seem to be getting a little closer to playing better defense overall.

Looked at the Yankees stats. Too depressing, don't want to dwell on it. Suffice it to say that almost every goddamn thing has gone right for them this season.
The best news I can report is that after a slow start Michael King has a 2.49 ERA and 2.53 FIP in his last 8 starts for the Padres.

Tanner Houck is on pace for 7.4 WAR, which only Pedro, Sale, Clemens and Cy Young have topped for the Red Sox.

Tanner Houck is on pace for 7.4 WAR, which only Pedro, Sale, Clemens and Cy Young have topped for the Red Sox. At this point I am willing to say Houck is and should be for the next few years one of the top 30 pitchers in the league health permitting. I won't say he's going to pitch this well every year but there seems enough on the board who say well I'm not sold on Houck being a front of the rotation guy yet which to each their own but I'm ready to say that he is.

MLB shows 6:30 for the first game start time. Sox moved the game up so more Sox fans can concentrate on enjoying a Celtics championship clinching.

I would very much enjoy it if Bello puts together another gem against the Yankees. There's no team he's faced more than once that he's pitched better against, so let's keep that up.

Duran is 13th in MLB in fWAR (2.7). Unlike last year, the quibbles regarding him over-performing his batted ball data aren’t really there (his wOBA and xwOBA are basically identical). He’s a great hitter, elite defender, and an ungodly baserunner.
Weren’t there rumblings he was on his way to San Diego in February? Imagine what a catastrophe that would have been

Regarding the MFY’S. Built for the season is much different than built for the postseason.
Ok so this Gil guy is there Severino from seasons past?

A good day - perfect weather, the first Music on Main St tonight - then home for the Sox and the Cs. Hoping for a happiness perfecta! I have a sneaking suspicion based on the weather forecast in Boston we're only going to see the C's finish the job and then still have to suffer through all the critics who will say Doncic wasn't healthy, refs, bla bla bla. I'm willing to bet Tatum has been banged up a good portion of the year, the only difference is he posts while others take maintenance days.

People will always find a way to complain about winners. Yankees fans are, by definition, categorically immoral, but the one positive quality I will grant them is that they don't feel the need to qualify their success or pay heed to those who would.

blogs.fangraphs.com/zstats-for-pitchers-june-update/I don't think I really understand exactly is going on here with this one, but Dan Szymborski gives Bello the 19th best zFIP in baseball this year, kind of an xwOBA type stat, and thinks he's been super unlucky.
