    The Rays uniforms look like a minor league batting practice jersey. I don't think the Rays have ever had good uniforms.

    Pete ties David Wright! He's on fire.

    I was kinda thinking they'd come out guns blazing tonight. Not happening so far.

    I'm sure there will be a sketchy proposal for a largely public funded domed South Side Stadium at some point https://www.mlb.com/news/white-sox-proposed-ballpark-updatehttps://www.mlb.com/news/white-sox-proposed-ballpark-update Not a dome, but a new park. They are the Action Park of baseball franchises. This is brilliant.

Instead, the White Sox poached Tom Seaver I do appreciate that they, to this day, pay appropriate honors at the stadium. A mural of that era has Tom jumping into Carlton Fisk's arms after the 300th win.

    He crushed that one!

    Soto turning the corner!

    =Centerfield post_id=194404 time=1749003740 user_id=65] Tylor Megill coming up. Capable of seven scoreless or giving up 6 in the bottom of the first. Both equally as likely.

    I miss Roger That. I didn't always agree with his points, but I liked the discussions. It's a shame he feels he was chased out.
  11. Bob Alpacadaca
    Insurance please.
  12. Bob Alpacadaca
    About two batters too late.
  13. Bob Alpacadaca
    I kinda like Canning.
  14. Bob Alpacadaca
    Megill has some moments, but I think he's the odd man out when Montas, Manaea and Blackburn return.
  15. Bob Alpacadaca
    Huge!!! Bring in the White Sox and Rockies!!
  16. Bob Alpacadaca
    Incredible.
  17. Bob Alpacadaca
    Scuba plus top of the order has to work this time!
  18. Bob Alpacadaca
    Minnesota Twins winning streak up to 13!

    The best part of Yankee fans turning their back on Juan Soto is seeing how many of them bought jerseys with names on the back. Do they not know? Best one is the guy in the top left with RUTH 3 on his! https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GrG6Kz1XIAANv0K?format=jpg&name=small>
  20. Bob Alpacadaca
    I have more faith in Canning than I do in Megill.
  21. Bob Alpacadaca
    Megill is the starter I feel is most likely to disappoint.
  22. Bob Alpacadaca
    Some of this seems to be media driven.
  23. Bob Alpacadaca
    Maybe deGrom would be comparable. I'd cheer for him.
  24. Bob Alpacadaca
    Seeing all these stories about how the mouth breathing Yankee fans are gearing up to boo Soto, and I don't get it. Trying to think of a Mets comparison. If Pete had signed with the rival Braves or Phillies and was making his return to Citi Field, would Mets fans boo him upon his return? https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/46aee79/2147483647/strip/true/crop/2582x1964+0+0/resize/320x243!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fea%2F78%2Fb6889d8f4bf5bea996309322c525%2F1481345-la-sp-world-series-dodgers-yankees-game4-ws1922a.jpg> I realize people who do stupid stuff like this are pretty much capable of anything. But I don't get the booing.

    Ugh. Not good. We've certainly had chances.
