100% Boston sucks. Always. No matter the sport. Sucks.

He is making 28 mil, a lot, but underpaid. Keith can play 1B. We just don't know what Jobe can be. It's a risk. Clark will be good, but his aaa ops is now sub .800 and it's unknown if he'll be a star. Yordan has an injury history, as does Carp. This isn't something Harris would ever consider, but that's what it would take for the Astros to consider it. If Yordan stays healthy I would probably do it. The guy has raked from day 1 in his career.

Carp, Clark, Jobe and another (Tork, Lee, Anderson....) for Yordan Alvarez. What say ye? Alvarez is under contract until 2029

What a bizarre 1st round. 3 game 7s. Orlando had 19 points in a half? Just nuts. Still alive

Jansen has given up 3 walk-off dingers now. I don't recall that happening in such a short span in my lifetime. I remember when a Diamondback reliever (Kim?) gave up 2 in the world series in 2001. Glad I worked late and missed it

I probably watched 77 regular season games this year. Can't tell you how disappointed I am. And I don't see any adjustments being made.

I would like to see Ron because he is a disruptor. He gets the rhythm into a transition game. Detroit isn't going to win in a half court game. In half court the lane is clogged with a bigger Orlando team which blocks Cade and Duren.

I don't understand keeping Holland on the bench 2 full games.

Cinncy is hot and they are talented. Det is 10-4 since their rough start. Last night stung, but Tork is going now. They're fine. Barring catastrophic injury I see them winning the Central. And with Skubal and Valdez, they're contenders.

Since Duren is a restricted FA, I have a hunch Trajan will offer him less than a max, and then likely match any offer another team puts on the table. He is not a max player. He is still developing and could become that. But that's doubtful in today's nba game

That's the biggest head scratcher for me. His 3% has been improving, and his spark on D gets them into more of a transition game. Orlando is bigger and much better in a half court game. Regardless this exposes what analysts have been saying all season - they play with grit but are not as talented. I actually still think Det takes this series in 7. But they are not a true contender

When healthy Orlando is the better team.

I'll have to miss tomorrow. That darn work thing. Keep it rolling!

B ball Paul should have been given some time. Their D seemed to take JD out of his game. If they lose this series JD isn't getting a max. I do think the time off wasn't ideal. I'm still 80% confident they will take this series. Orlando is a tougher match-up for Detroit than Charlotte. Bane is going to have a huge game at some point.

Hard to believe the Tigers are just 1.5 games back from the best record in the AL. And I hate the Dodgers
