Jo Adell had a game earlier this year where he robbed 3 Home Runs

Tonight he became Jose Canseco

That’s Baseball

What new Patriots WR A.J. Brown has to look forward to working with New England offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels:

There is an almost unlimited pool of wildly overqualified people available to run a baseball team and these idiots picked a guy who is such a bad communicator he needs an English-to-English translator.

2-2 game in the top of the 6th. Bunt single, walk, walk, walk, Grand Slam. 7-2 Braves. Still nobody out in top 6th. Sick team. #162er

Back when it was just good, clean baseball. Varitek is a fucking beast.

[Gordo @BOSSportsGordo]

32-14 would be the best record in baseball btw. If they had an average offense…

[Justin @JustinMLB]

Liverpool fans got a 3 minute in person apology video (below)

Red Sox fans get an email that was reported via Sports Business Journal (that was most likely written by someone on behalf of John Henry)

Red Sox team defense rankings:

DRS: 1st
OAA: 1st
FRV: 1st

Best defensive team in baseball so far, hands down. Yet they’re 13-21. Says something about the merits of building a team around defense.

A plane just flew over Fenway with a banner that says, “Fire Craig! Sell the team!” Welp.

NEW details on Alex Cora's firing include a Friday postgame team meeting meant to right the ship while the team booked the private jet that would take the coaches home the next day, plus Cora sending a 4 am email to the entire Red Sox org last night:

Whitlock doesn’t have it. He’s pitched a billion innings in the WBC. Red Sox letting him just go unlimited innings this tourney. Probably be dead by the time we get him back. Meanwhile Skubal wears the hockey jersey to the game while opting out. Make it make sense

[Jordan Moore @iJordanMoore]

We almost witnessed another Dustin Pedroia catastrophe in the WBC.

Thank God Brice Turang fumbled this ball. Manny Machado almost took out another player on a spikes up hard slide past second base. Can’t say I’m shocked.

Drake Maye called his own number on the game-sealing naked. It wasn't called a naked and nobody in the huddle knew. Madness.

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

As I lay my head on the pillow tonight I’d like to congratulate all Patriots fans across the country. It was a tough 6 year rebuild. But we never gave up. Never wavered. We knew it was only a matter of time till we would rise again. Enjoy tonight. But remember the job is not done. We didn’t get here to just get here. Lombardi #7 is within our grasp. So get a good night sleep with visions of Duckboats dancing in your head. And wake up ready to work tomorrow. 2 weeks to prepare. We’re all we got. We’re all we need. #nepats

An Open Letter to John Henry

Dear John,

I am 52 years old, the same age you were when you bought the Boston Red Sox. That parallel has been on my mind lately, because at 52, you changed the trajectory of a franchise and, in a very real way, the emotional lives of millions of fans like me.

My father passed away in 2021. Because of the choices you, Larry Lucchino, and Tom Werner made, he and I were able to share something we never thought we would see together: a winning Red Sox team.

For most of my dad’s adult life, and for the first 30 years of mine, we lived with the assumption that the Red Sox simply did not win titles. We hoped, we joked, we endured heartbreak, but deep down we accepted that it might never happen — and if it did, it would be in an alternate dimension or something.

Then it happened. It really happened. Not once, but four times.

Those championships were not abstract achievements. They were nights on the couch, phone calls, laughter, disbelief, and relief. They were memories I still carry now that my father is gone. That is something no owner can ever fully measure, and something no fan should forget.

For that, you deserve real thanks.

When you bought the Boston Red Sox, you were a disruptor with conviction, appetite for risk, and a clear belief that bold decisions could rewrite history. You proved it.

You are 76 now. Time changes all of us. I don’t mean to get overly clinical — I’m a copywriter who does a lot of work in the healthcare space — but research is clear that as we age, dopamine levels naturally decline, and with that comes a shift in how we assess risk. Fewer decisions are driven by the upside of reward. More are shaped by the fear of loss. That is human. It is understandable. But it is also visible.

It is also fair to say that some of your ownership group’s old fire may be gone in the wake of Larry Lucchino’s passing. He left a real void in that department. You, Larry, and Tom Werner were a formidable force. Together, you changed baseball in Boston forever.

Sadly, your recent Red Sox teams have instead felt managed to avoid mistakes, not built to chase greatness.

In light of Alex Bregman’s regrettable departure for Chicago, I would like to propose that you sign Bo Bichette. Give him an eight-year, $320 million contract. Maybe that’ll do it. If he wants 10 years, give him 10 years. Give him what it takes. If the deal turns out to be an overpay, consider it a self-imposed tax for failing, in recent years, to be aggressive enough to win the way you once were.

What is the real risk in a deal like that? How involved do you realistically expect to be with this team at the end of that deal, when you are 84 years old?

If Bo Bichette can’t be acquired, please pursue any and all other similarly aggressive avenues to improve this baseball team. Championships are not won by protecting balance sheets. They are won by conviction. And by good baseball players.

Baseball is a game of failure. Not every deal will work out. Even some of the best teams fail to win it all. But if you are concerned with your legacy, which is worse: Trying to win, but failing? Or losing interest in even trying?

This is not a criticism as much as it’s a plea for clarity.

Red Sox fans love the Red Sox. We always have. We always will.

Do you still?

Regards,
Bill Colrus

No other player in @NFL history has been as efficient while throwing for as many yards per attempt over a single season.
