    5/8/2024 - Home & Away in Triple-A

    How the heck can they play B2B Worcester/Buffalo on the same day, with the first game starting at 5? Google says it's 6 hrs+ by car, and as someone who's driven that a lot (including just a few weeks ago), I'd say it's full value for that.

    2024 Worcester Red Sox (AAA)

    I'm probably getting boring on this, but I'm a huge Meidroth stan. All he does is hit (well, and the other baseball stuff that infielders do). Can we please bring him to Boston, and ditch some of the flotsam we've been signing? And yeah, Youk or (ducking and squinting hard) Pedey? Kind of the...

    2024 FCL Red Sox (FCL...duh)

    Hard to believe he's an 18 yo SS - in the pic, he looks more like a tight end. 'Course, in the picture, you can't tell he's 5'8", either.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Maritimers are great people. So this makes sense!

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Ontario seems to be on a different track. I just got back from a long walk, and saw not one Leafs jersey, t-shirt, hat or flag in 2.5 hrs.

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    As I heard Grapes say once on TV, "they should never put a team any place where they call hockey "'ice hockey.'" "Ice" hockey in May, in Florida? GTFO. Time to toss these cats off whatever high points actually exist in a state that's only about 6' over sea level.

    Wave of mutilation: The latest injuries

    Pivetta talked about how difficult he found the robo-ump. Maybe Dalbec's issues are with humans calling balls & strikes?

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    In normal circumstances, all the pressure would be on the Bs. But this isn't normal, it's Toronto. With the "weight of the country" on them. Despite the fact that the country has a division's worth of other NHL teams, and most Canadians aren't fans of Toronto/Torontonians in general. I won't be...

    Red Sox hire outside consulting firm to audit organization

    Completely off topic, but there are real drawbacks to promoting security from within. Sake of argument, let's say that a blended bag of behind-the-scenes office workers makes ~$150K, benes/etc. in. Average MLB salary is $4.5M So, if a bunch is 30 - one MLB salary? Of course, the back office...

    2024 MiLB Injuries & Other Affronts

    Here's hoping. That's a way better explanation than "doesn't get people out."

    2024 UDFA

    Kicker from Laval, eh? That would be kind of cool. Also, right up there with 'the position where growing up not speaking English wouldn't matter much.'

    Turning the page: the 2024 draft contest!

    @Eck'sSneakyCheese - thanks for the UDFA list! https://www.profootballnetwork.com/nfl-udfa-tracker-2024/ Unless I'm missing something - and I might be! - nobody successfully picked a UDFA. We have five folks who listed 3/8 draft picks, which is darned good IMO! Please take a bow, @Cellar-Door...

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    If by "good" you mean "someplace where Leafs fans will be numerous and sad if/when the Bs usher them out of the playoffs," pretty well anywhere in Ontario with a bar and a TV should do.

    R4/110 Javon Baker WR UCF

    Looks like a pretty good pick to me. Of course, I'm not one of the 9 folks who had him in the draft pool...
