Red Sox announcers inform us that ketchup won today's Hot Dog Derby.
Jerry Remy ponders if the Red Sox could do the same with baked beans, clam chowder and lobster running around Fenway.
This team is kind of ****ing amazing. And it's not like their record is fluky. It is exactly in line with their expected win/loss based on their run differential. Incredible.
And yet the Astros are even better. Good god, their Pythagorean record has them at 68 and 24! 68 AND 24!
Man this league is top heavy.
The only year the Red Sox have won 100 games was in 1946.
Right now they only have to play .535 ball to do it and they still could be in a one game playoff
There are a lot of bad teams in the AL this year.
Love optimism and pessimism in the same postThe lack of a 100 win season for that long has been a quiet obsession of mine for 20 years now. I really really want to see it just so I can stop thinking about it.
If they don't get it now that means the last three months of the season will be an epic, all-time disaster.

No spot for a carpal tunnel, allergy induced Fortenite expert?
Well nice half glass empty for the guy attitude.No offence to Moreland...he has been good this year and I’m happy for him...but how bad are AL 1B this year if he is an all-star?

Meanwhile how about backing up this general opinionated post with some facts, stats and examples of who is better.
We shall wait while you Google. No rush

Do people still care about the All Star Game and who makes it? Serious question...
I mean it's fun to talk about snubs, and who shouldn't be there and all, but caring? Nope.
Ever since they changed it that every team needs a representitive, it's really messed some things up. AKA Salvador Perez of the Royals getting in with his .211 BA and sub .300 OBP.
Changing the HR derby to the way they do it now has sucked too.
where is the game, Krejci, DCBryce Harper batting .218 and making it is laughable. Last time I checked that's not all star worthy

no it's not, would you rather have no Nationals including Scherzer not goingthe spot should go to somebody having an all star season. Kind of the point of the whole thing. .218 (.211 a few days ago) shouldn't be rewarded

Boston's record may be impressive but Shaughnessy is not impressed with the state of MLB.
The Red Sox may be red-hot, but baseball is striking out in every way - The Boston Globe
