Seeing Casas getting made fun of for this. I’ll be the first to say yoga isn’t my thing. I’m a typical meat head that likes throwing weights around. However, I also believe you should do whatever helps you feel ready to train or play. Do your thing Triston
I’m really not understanding why Devers was almost halfway out into left field on this play. The more I watch him play 3B, the more I just want him at DH.
So many emotions here. At first, I legit thought Castellanos hit a homer to give the Phillies the lead. Then Michael Harris II with the catch of his life, AND THEN HARPER GOT DOUBLED OFF TO END THE GAME. Might be one of the best playoff games I’ve seen.
I know it’s only Game 1, but man that was a solid win for the Red Sox.

My 4 year old nephew didn’t open any gifts this morning. I asked him why. He said he didn’t want to feel happiness unless the Red Sox signed Jordan Montgomery or John Henry sold the team, and walked quietly back to his room with his tea. Absolutely devastating. I’m shaking.
I’m just gonna say it. The only team that hasn’t leaked out (Dave Roberts), been leaked out (Blue Jays & Giants), or suggested anything (Ron Washington cat out the bag comment) with Shohei Ohtani are the Cubs.
Late night Yoshinobu Yamamoto thoughts:
Dodgers- Add Glasnow. Stars everywhere. Payroll already at $257M with only $40M scheduled to come off the books after 2025. Ohtani is Japanese star. Will Yamamoto see market suitable for him with Ohtani dominating headlines?
Yankees-
Bob Nightengale is reporting that MLB team executives widely believe Jordan Montgomery will end up with the Red Sox, while Blake Snell will end up with the Angels, or maybe the Giants.
Craig. Please. The kids are starving.

Moving Xander Bogaerts to 2B and Ha-Seong Kim to SS is the right move. Kim has a much better arm and range for SS. Bogaerts has good range, but it profiles more for 2B, and his arm is by far better suited for 2B.
Good move by the Padres. Moves like this can go a long way.
The Orioles now have 3 SP in their rotation that ranked in the top 15 in Stuff+ last season among pitchers with at least 100 IP. No other rotation in MLB has that.
Corbin Burnes- 127 (2nd)
Kyle Bradish- 126 (3rd)
Grayson Rodriguez- 117 (12th)
I received one of the best emails I’ve ever gotten last night. I reached out to The Donots, the band that created the theme song for MVP Baseball 2005 “We Got the Noise”, to ask permission to use that song for my intro for streams this coming season. I think I might cry tears of
My GUESS is Trevor Story just dislocated his shoulder, which can also come with a torn labrum. I really hope it’s not serious, but man, that’s not good.
According to Chris Cotillo, he has been told by people that have an understanding of the Theo Epstein/Fenway Sports Group arrangement that part of the reason he was brought back was because ownership has acknowledged they haven’t give the Red Sox the attention they deserve in
Marino Pepen reports Yoshinobu Yamamoto has accepted an invite to Fenway Park from the Red Sox. Listen, I’m keeping everything in check here, but there’s something that just hits different when you step foot in Fenway. Hard to explain. Let’s hope Yamamoto gets that same feeling.
Buenos días, mi Gente!
Feliz domingo!
La competencia por Yamamoto se intensifica.

Also opened up playing time for Wilyer Abreu.
Abreu- 1.6 fWAR
Hate to see it.
Saw this in the Red Sox Reddit. “Red Sox will sign Blake Snell”.
Just a reminder to please take everything you see with a grain of salt, and don’t trust anything until King Passan says it.
