Youk seems like a nice guy to have a beer with, but I expect more from my color commentator. He brings out the worst in O'Brien (smarmy idle chitchat).

This is the fourth game of the season. Can the announcers please talk about baseball and not paint and sips with (with all due respect) some blogger?

Crawford just doesn't have a good enough fastball. Meh velo + bad movement + meh command up in the zone = rockets all over the park.

I just don't think Kutter Crawford is that good.

Saves are a dumb stat. Three runs: arguably your best reliever. Four runs: arguably your worst.

I’ll take as many of these dinks and dunks and they’ve got in them.

That’s what you do to soft-tossing lefties in Fenway.

At its best, this team is better than any other in the league. Very few teams can combine their offensive ceiling (shot making, multiple ball handlers, crisp ball movement) with their defensive ceiling (length, versatility, switchability).

Really was not expecting this to be a 30-point lead at halftime…

Cut out the bickering.

Let's move on from the Brasier/BLM discussion. Thanks.

Eight walks in less than five innings. Puke.

That's one where the Green Monster turned a HR in most parks into a single.

Devers is one helluva bad ball hitter.

Alright, five innings to get four runs, very doable still.

Nothing more frustrating than walking in a run.

I do wish there was some geographic cost of living adjustment. But a very good step.

He hit that to the deepest part of the field—not a cheap one by any means.

Here’s the thing. Even if he weren’t taken in the Rule 5 draft, given that he missed 3+ years of development, the odds of Song being a multi-year major league player weren’t very high even if he had all the time in the world to ramp up. Tough to see him ramping his innings up fast enough to be a starting pitcher and the bar is high for a reliever. What really screwed him wasn’t the Phillies, it was the Navy.

I’m a big Lamar fan. I think he’s a top 5 NFL QB who was underutilized in Baltimore. Off the top of my head, I’d trade Mac Jones for Lamar (and Lamar’s expected $200M+ guaranteed contract) straight up. Maybe throw in another midround pick or two. No idea if that’s enough, though. Why do you think he was underutilized in Baltimore? They’ve had one of the worst wide receiver rooms in the league in recent years and Greg Roman’s offense has been heavily tilted towards the run game and away from what good modern passing offenses need to do (route combinations, coverage beaters). I’m very curious what he looks like in another offensive system.

Dalbec looks surprisingly playable at SS. If he can actually back that position up, he could earn himself a roster spot.
