more weather BS.

This will be a tough match up for Mize, although Boston has lost 6 out of 8.  Hopefully he can change speeds effectively.

I hear he was working on his slider during his rehab and increased the swing and miss ratio. I hope so...

Congratulations to @Jim Cowan on Woodsie’s definitive victory in stage 13 of La Vuelta a Espana.

Mize is not yet listed on the MLB website as the pitcher for tonight’s game. I don’t know if there’s a certain time of the day when he can be officially activated or not. Or if this is one of those little tricks to mess with the opposing team and keep them guessing. I find it hard to believe that the Red Sox would be tripping over their own own feet about who they’re going to face though.

Thanks!  He's 36 now, still got a bit of juice left in the tank for a hilly course.

He’s basically half our age so he’s got a leg up on us.

Wout Van Aert is cleaning up.

Wout’s won three stages so far but these intense climbs are difficult because Woodsie weighs 30 pounds (American money) less than him. (13.608 kilograms Canadian)

[IdahoBert]

It’s official.

at least it isn't Faedo's hip again. One more round with that and you'd have to think it was something chronic. Still, between shoulder, hip, TJ he's turning into a guy you never get much out of.

Are we taking bets on when the tarp is rolled out?

bottom of the 8th, with the bases loaded and the Tigers down by 1

[IdahoBert]

Well, that started out nice. 

[IdahoBert]

Well, we’re gonna have to score at least two runs tonight.

I do not like seeing political ads on mlb.tv. I watch baseball to get away from that not to be subjected to it.

I kind of expected this.   I don't think it's an instant return to form.   Before  his injury, his last 3 or 4 starts were his best of the year, but that season after Tommy John is almost always a rough one.      I knew that coming into the season.   I think if he hadn't had the injury he would have settled into a groove - but it all got disrupted.       Patience, man, patience.
