Only 3.0 back of the Blue Jays and the first Wild Card team after the Yankees FAFO against the Marlins.

Fuck the Yankees. Lets take the division.

I know there's a lot of new Sox fans over the last 20 years who may not feel the true depth of hatred for them, but I went to my 1st game in 1982 and had to live through a LOT of Yankee winning before 2004.  Every day we're above them in the standings is a good one.

It would be very nice to get back to the days of high-stakes postseason clashes, a la 2003 & 2004. You know, just with outcomes like '04 and not '03.

Bunch of the adult Tshirts are already sold out.  My nephews are getting tees for their birthdays - they'll actually be sitting on the Monstah on the older one's birthday.  Brother splurged on tickets - $1600 for the family.

Fuck yeah - nephew got a BP homer already. (someone gave it to him, he didn’t catch it on the fly)

Glad he got to see a Win! That got a bit nerve racking. Anyways, six in a row. 

Incredible 1st game for them! They got on the Jumbotron and the KC homer in the 8th hit right in front of them and bounced back over into the field.

6 straight, 8 of 10 and 3 series W in a row.  Crazy that this team looks like one that can actually play baseball, especially compared to the same squad that was 30-34 60 days ago.

31-16 since Roman Anthony was called up.

What got into Bello!?!?  As my brother was sending pics of the tour and Fenway during the day yesterday, I sent him "Bello is pitching, so good chance you get some balls up there!" but dude has really stepped up lately - ERA has been steadily dropping from 4.08 to 3.03 over the last 2 months.  

I don't know how to look up team game logs, but I'd be real curious to know what the errors per game was on June 1 vs today. Feels like the Keystone Cops act has really faded away as well.

This team is on an absolute tear right now. 

And I am here for it! 

Went to my local tavern tonight. Bartender is a die hard Houston fan. Said I am on probation.... I laughed and said we got this. See you in the Post Season. I love how the team is playing

Getting past the first few series after the All Star break without flopping will likely be the key point in the season.  They went 4-5 in those series against the NL Division leaders.  That's a huge confidence boost for a young team and has likely been a big part of them going on a tear after that.

Beat me to it. Fuck yeah. He could be the next Judge. Who I love, and still hate the Yankees.

We finally signed a player that makes sense to keep for the long term to a long-term deal! However, just tell me now… are we going to ask him to play first base? Kidding.

Another Series win.

Last night Sox just looked flat. 

Yep. Maybe due to the massive ass kicking the day before and the series win. Either way, one big issue with the team this year has been inconsistent offense. But that's baseball, to a degree.

That's typical for a very young team.

Agreed.  Looking forward to the next couple of years.  Hoping they can hold on to Chapman and Bregman.  

If it can't be the Sox this year I'm going to pull hard for the Blue Jays.  They are a fun team to watch, and I'd love to see the Canadian team win it all.

Red Sox 2026 schedule. Some interesting match ups. Second Series, end of March, @ Houston. Road trip?

I think a lot of that also has to do with the improved culture since the Devers trade.

Yeah, for sure, both.

Either way, it was hard for me to imagine they'd be 73-60 and highly likely playoff bound (93.8% according to ESPN) when this team was sitting at 30-34.

Son is a diehard sox fan. All his friends are planning on going down. Best friend of mine is an Astros fan. He will fly up from Ecuador. Nose bleed is the idea. they are young kids and such. I would prefer 3rd base line or the outfield.

My BIL is a huge Astros fan. Watches every game and lives in North Houston. I’m in Austin, so not a hard drive. I’d be good with either of those seating areas.

Dismiss Roman Anthony at your peril, sir.

Make the youngin sit up high. 

Chapman strikes out the side in the 9th. 99mph. Sox take the win.

Sweep GIFs | Tenor

Huge sweep and 7-1 on the road trip. Peaking at the absolute best time (for the regular season, at least).

Gritty win. yeah, it is the orioles but they tend to trip us up a lot. 

Here is to Toronto losing tonight. I want the East. Oh, and the Yankees as well. Went off for 1 inning last night so that could be their runs for the week.

Yeah, It'd be really nice to start to close the gap on the Blue Jays.

Boston has these 3-game series upcoming:

  • Pittsburgh (59-75)
  • Cleveland (66-66)
  • @Arizona (65-69)
  • @A's (63-72)

Over the same stretch, Toronto has:

  • Milwaukee (83-51)
  • @Cincinnati (68-66)
  • @Yankees (73-60)
  • Houston (73-60)

If the Sox aren't closer to the division title after that stretch, it's either: their own fault, or they just aren't likely to catch them.

This season is fucked.  Need to go young and let all those prospects get as many at bats and innings as possible.

Sweep the Yankees and trade Devers in the same day.  Fuck this fucking team.

What a season this has turned out to be.  Can't believe we're in this position.  Sorry I ever doubted you, Alex!

Fucking allergies. 

Cross post it. 

Pretty damn good MLB debut.  5 1/3inn, 8K, 3H, 2 W, 2ER.  Be nice if the bullpen could have picked him up.

Fuck a duck. 

This sucks. But we have seen what he can do. He is not coming back this year. And that sucks.
