Well, I obviously read something different. What I read was, from his wife’s tweet, was “your son is disappointed in you.”
As far as family, I definitely remember the Memorial Stadium crowd taunt Wade Boggs with a “Margo” (his mistress) chant.
Fans can be ugly. But what he and his wife are complaining about is super soft. And from what I saw on Twitter, the offending fan was wearing a Sox hat.
It’s going to be a long 13 years if he can’t get his team to the playoffs.
Only one of nine teams in baseball history to make the playoffs after being 12 games below .500.
Scherzer wore googles with one blue eye and one brown eye.
Seems like that will be tough to prove. He had five appearances between the Colorado series and the trade and he put up zeros in each.
Sucks for Minnesota, but don’t see how they can and should be remedied.
Three teams still involved with two weeks left. The Cardinals are losing their grip on the lead. One WC team will likely come from the division with an outside possibility that two make it.
Elias is the unnamed ex-Astro in the first article, right?
If I was an owner, I would invest in a complex for my minor leaguers. Set up a dorm-like environment with a cafeteria and let them live there year round. If they aren’t going to get paid, provide their food and shelter so they can develop without the stress of trying to figure out how to live or eat.
Max was really good in Atlanta this weekend. If he does similar tomorrow and his next turn, he should be the guy.
But you’re right that they’ll likely clinch a WC spot without a chance to catch Atlanta with about a week to go.
I’d actually pair Corbin with Scherzer to have a lefty/righty effect. As unreliable as their bullpen has been, I wonder if Martinez will lean on his starters in a one-game playoff. I see that they didn’t use Doolittle to close last night.
Their first home game since his passing will give you goosebumps. Mom throws out the first pitch, Trout leads a seven run first, and they pitch a combined no-hitter.
