I’m pulling for the Mets. Great fans, and other than the Red Sox, no other team winning pisses off Yankee fans more than the Mets.

But also, I don’t really care as long as the Yankees lose. Fuck the Yankees.

Edit I take it back. I do care. Fuck the Yankees but also fuck the Dodgers (bought it), fuck the Phillies (arguably worst sports fans in America), and fuck the Padres (Machado)

Everyone else is fine

I feel like people who didn't live through what we did in '04... just don't have the faith that things actually CAN turn around when it looks like it's all over. I think about this often with my spouse who is a fan of a different team... it'll be the 8th or 9th and the other team is up by a few runs and he has just decided the game is over so he stops watching/ listening. It's not even my team and I'm always the one going "wait!! You're going to want to watch!!!"

Some people have never seen their team turn it around in the ALCS to win the whole damn thing and it shows. Have a little faith!! I believe in believe!!!

Thinking of starting a pod. Need name ideas. What do you think of these, or comment another one!

This season we have seen several color commentators in the broadcast booth. Who had been your favorite? Who would you like see that currently isn't in the booth?

Kevin Youklis was my favorite followed closely by Lou Merloni.

I'd love to see Will Middlebrooks and his wife Jenny Dell. I think they could make a fun broadcast duo.

Red Sox will offer Corbin Burnes $19.78 an hour plus half off apps (Monday through Thursday) in the Bleacher Bar to anchor our rotation, then Sam Kennedy will act like we were in the running the entire time when he says no

Look - not buying at the deadline ended up being the correct move. But it always bothered me that people argued that the Red Sox shouldn't try to make the playoffs because they'd just get smoked when they get there - as if they're an 8 seed in the NBA or something.

& now the last team in and a team that closed the season on a 4-9 stretch are moving on. This is baseball man - you just gotta get to the dance. Here's to hoping that the Sox do next season.

As sad as it is that the season is over, if you were curious how we fared this year wearing each uniform set and any other stats like that, please check out this spreadsheet.

What do you think the opening day lineup and pitching staff looks like?

Bring whoever up, make any trades.

Are Anthony, Campbell, Teel finally in the lineup full time?

Mayer still here or did we trade him away for a pitcher?

Hey guys, White Sox fan here. Wondering what u guys would think a realistic package is for Crochet? Thanks and good luck this offseason!

We complain about NESN 360's price (absolutely ridiculous, still..), but at least we HAVE a local TV/streaming deal, as opposed to 11 of the 12 teams that had Diamond/Bally as a provider before today. (Only the Braves are being kept).

Definitely will affect teams aggressiveness in free agency. In short, the rich will get richer while the poor(er) get less. Or more accurately, probably want the rich just to give them more money in revenue sharing.

I have this awesome Red Sox wallclock, but the time piece itself no longer works. I saw this just set it for the exact time. We won the World Series and leave it on the wall. The problem is, I can’t find an accurate timestamp of the exact time. I just thought it would be cool if anyone knew I remember everything about that night, but I had no sense of time.

Now that we’re in the Dark Times, I’m assessing my options. One possibility is to watch a season on YouTube—apparently most of 2009-2018 is available. Are either of 2013 and 2018 worth watching in their entirety? Any other seasons that might be worth a look?

I listen to around half of the games on the radio and have come to really like Will Flemming so I hope that EEI keep him. What do you think?

If you like Will, why do you like him? If you want someone else, is there another announcer you have in mind?

Please vote who you would like in the booth below!
