2025 Red Sox and MLB Thread

Bunch of Lamars ...


Those yellow jerseys are terrible, yet a fair number of people seem to like them. Of course, an increasing number of Americans also claim to be bisexual or homosexual, too....
 
Sox win in the tenth 4-3. Love them yellow unis!!!

Roman Anthony is absolutely destroying minor league pitching right now. It's time to call him up to the show.
The average barrel rate in the majors is 8%.

On this date, April 20th, 1995, the Pittsburgh Pirates released Tim Wakefield. On behalf of Red Sox fans everywhere, we owe the Pirates a lifetime worth of debt to be able to witness first hand not only the knuckleballer he was, but even a better human. His presence in the Red Sox organization off the field and everything he did in the Boston Community is vastly more important than any of his significant impact on the field. Thank you Wake for being an exceptional role model and a person we all wish we can be!
