10,000 Wins

The Red Sox beat the Nationals 10-3 on Saturday afternoon, evening their record at 45-45. It was the franchise's 10,000th regular season victory. Boston is the second American League team and the tenth major league team to reach 10,000 wins. The franchise has 108 postseason wins. Here are the franchises with more than 5,000 wins, as of a few days ago. Also: The second-longest World Series championship drought is 56 years, held by the Brewers and Padres .  . . . Weird.

Schadenfreude 362 (A Continuing Series)

Since May 29, the MFY have the worst record in the AL East: 13-19. Blue Jays   21  10 Rays    19 12 Orioles  18  13 Red Sox  16 14 Yankees  13  19 They were just swept by the now-in-first-place Blue Jays, who scored 36 runs in the four games. Toronto has not been in first place this "late" in a season since 2016 . OH SHIT . . .  BUFFY GOT THE BROOM OUT ! And he waved it  in the eminently punchable face of the pompously annoying Michael Kay...

went on vacation

Like the Nats in general    They are now nearly what I feared they'd be last post.  Worst of the rest. Only the Athletics are standing in their way.  They are clearly behind the Marlins now. Hell so are the Braves.  Things have gotten so bad the team is trying to get you excited for the idea of Paul DeJong coming back and DHing even though he can't hit.  What the hell are we doing here people?    Kick anyone over 27 to the curb.  Just play kids...

Preds sign D Nick Perbix in free agency

The Nashville Predators have signed the former Tampa Bay Lightning defender for two years at an AAV of $2.75M. This brings the number of similarly-named players acquired for the blueline this week to two, after yesterday’s signing of Nicolas Hague . Perbix, who just turned 27, scored 19 points (6G/13A) in a third-pair role for the Bolts last season. The team struggled with puck control while he was paired with his usual defense partner, Emil Lilleberg. However, he played better with other...

Wilyer Abreu Cracks Inside-The-Park HR And A Grand Slam (Only 6th Time In MLB History)

Wilyer Abreu led off the bottom of the fifth with an inside-the-park home run . Three innings later, he donged the first grand slam of his career. The Red Sox rode a seven-run first inning to a 13-6 victory. Abreu became only the sixth player to hit an inside-the-park home run and a grand slam in a game -- and the first player to do it in 67 years. The others : June 5, 1890 - Jocko Fields, Pittsburgh Burghers (Players League) July 4, 1923 (G1) - Everett Scott, Yankees August 4, 1930 - Charlie ...

Free Agency Day Open Thread

Last year I made a joke about how we’d all sit around and wait for the inevitable Steven Stamkos re-signing in Tampa to be massively overshadowed by some other trade, and, uh, as you all know, that didn’t happen. This year I got nothin’. Pull up a chair and let’s see what happens.

Preds trade Sissons, Lauzon for D Nicolas Hague

The Nashville Predators made one move today before free agency began, trading Colton Sissons and Jeremy Lauzon to the Vegas Golden Knights for defender Nicolas Hague and a conditional 2027 draft pick. The Preds also agreed to retain salary on Sissons. Under those circumstances, it’s disappointing but not surprising to see that Hague’s on-ice impact for Vegas last season wasn’t the best. The 26-year-old is a low-scoring defender who struggled to move the puck out of the zone, though the Pr...
