MASN showed a replay that clearly showed the ball barely missing the pole to the foul side. 

It wasn't above the pole, it was next to it.  The angle didn't change anything.

Apologies I was watching NESN on mlb tv. I think stands means inconclusive so if the call was the other way it would be 3-2.

Bostons starters are absolutely obliterating us with cutters and off speed stuff. 

Only 12% FB so far this season by their pitching staff. Crazy.

Actually now that I think about it that’s 6 runs in 2 days.

This play illustrates my ire with the camera work.

The batter hits a solid line drive, and by the time the cameras switches to the action, Mount Castle has already caught the ball and stepped on first and the play is over. All we see is the umpire give out sign.

But if you camera were in a logical place, which it is not, everybody would’ve seen the entirety of the play.

From the replay I saw it was 100% foul and would have been overturned if called a HR.

When Ripken and Griffey are in the same room,  which gets to be called "Junior"?

Cal would be "Jr " and Griffey would be "the kid"

    • Am I crazy for thinking Burnes isn't going to sniff Cole's deal?  I'm thinking like 7/260-280.  I don't think he's going to sniff Cole's deal.  For starters i dont think hes as good a pitcher as Cole was at the time of his signing.  Also, the Yankees aren't going to be in the bidding so that leaves the Mets, Giants, Nats, Orioles as teams that can afford him.  The Sox could too, but they're on the fringe of contention and might opt to develop more with the Yankees and Orioles solidly ahead of them in division.  Only the Mets from that list really seem like teams that would go over 300m for a pitcher, but they will be pressed for money because of the luxury tax.
    • Agree a strong RHP bullpen arm that misses bats would be good to add. Looking at Spotrac I don’t see who it would be. Dominguez could certainly be someone that could fill this role. 
    • Definitely leave the flag up. 
    • It looks like I misread your post as being about last offseason instead of the 2017-2018 offseason.  My mistake, but does that in any way affect my overall point - you know the part that I made explicit and you left out of your response - that all the old, reflexive Angelosian nonsense no longer automatically applies? I'm unclear on what you're driving at, especially if I have to go back to the 2017-2018 offseason when Peter Angelos might still have been giving input on running the team.  I think it's a stretch to try to draw parallels to those days, or even the John Angelos years, to David Rubenstein potential as an owner.
    • Irsay stealing the Colts in a midnight sneak away is in my top five depressing B-More moments, as well as the dreaded We Are Family Pirates in the ‘79 series. Otherwise, it’s a good bad list.
    • I forgot the name of the movie, but Jimmy Fallon was playing a BoSox superfan (tough role for an NY kid) and it was during the era of the ‘curse’ (right at the end of it actually) — a kid he was coaching asked, “What have the Red Sox ever done for you?” His character didn’t have an answer. But it made me think. The movie was out during the 14-years of losing seasons. I asked myself the same question about whether a lifetime of fandom was worth it. For me, outside of my family - 15 generations or more on the Eastern Shore - the O’s are also part of my DNA.  Win, lose, lose horribly, lose ugly, bad ownership, they just can’t shake me. All that said, I totally understand the frustration. It will take me a little longer to heal from this ugly exit to 2024.
