Hopefully the weather will actually be clear after.  Nothing more irritating than a second multi-hour rain delay in the second inning, burning the starters. 

EDIT: Seeing hourly weather forecasts indicating storms in Boston region until 7, then greatly reduced rain chances.  So kind of odd that they are saying quarter to 6 start time on this one.   🤷‍♂️

I really like your profile pic. Did you make it yourself?

The Mariners are a fun team. And unlike TB they play in a real place, not some cul-de-sac of Del Boca Vista phase XI.

I imagine that we'll hear something about the Rays' plan regarding a new stadium or a relocation soon.  The lease on the Trop only goes through 2027, and new stadium construction is often a 2 to 4 year time frame.  They're kind of running low on time to make that decision, and I highly doubt they want to keep playing in their current horrendous stadium.

We will see but I see them moving in 2028.

    • Well said! Like you, I go back to about 1970 and the # of posts someone has is irrelevant to me. The fact that so many on here think there you know what don't stink keeps me, and I'm sure others from joining in more. I know what I know about this team and I don't feel the need to prove myself. And btw the closest that I've ever lived to Baltimore is the very most western part of Illinois.
    • To me none of that matters. Baker was throwing the ball well.  Had spin and velocity.  Go with that. Again, goes to show how many managers don't go by feel anymore and instead just go by what the book says.
    • You will get used to that around here.  The people saying you can't say anything about the Os unless you have played baseball for 20 years or been an Os fan for 50 years.   Bottom line is Baker, as mediocre as he is, was actually throwing the ball pretty well.  His pitches has spin and velocity and he had just struck out his last batter. To take him out for a complete and utter scrub?  And I say scrub in the best way possible?  Was ridiculous. Hyde was playing text book/by the book baseball instead of actually MANAGING BASEBALL by instinct and feels. And he got burned for it.  And it has not been the first time. 
    • Brecht has TOR upside.  We’re good at finding #3-#5 types just in developing them, but we need that TOR arm upside and develop. 
    • I thought Baker had a better chance of getting a strikeout. Even though he created that mess it looked like he could have worked out of it.  Generally not in favor of bringing in guys for bases loaded situations unless they’re absolute nails and have an extremely high K rate.  Akin’s K rate is higher this year but I still don’t believe he was the better option than Baker. 
    • We’ve been picking really athletic types when not picking high in rd 1. Position player wise.   2023 - EBJ, Horvath, Josenberger, Cunningham, Etzel Not that are prior picks haven’t been athletic, if you know what I’m trying to say. We don’t take plodders as position players.
