2024 Season | Series #8 | Red Sox @ Guardians | April 23-25, 2024

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
God I am so proud of this team how they responded again in the late innings after being down against a quality pitcher Haulk. What about Lively too hitting his spots and Freeman at cf. I am in love. I expect us to regress but that doesnt take away from the magic(no pun intended) that is happening with a rook coach
A plus to me is that lively gave us 7 plus a day after a off day
Good rest for most of the pen
 
Yeah best record in the MLB.. I'd say they are cooking.. and usually our bullpen improves in the second half.. Clase showing out with 3 k's to close..
 
I’m surprised you guys aren’t more excited about the Tribe having the best record in the majors. I, for one, am totally jacked

We aren't excited because the Tribe doesn't have the best record. The Guardians do. And for that, yes, we are excited and just enjoying this stretch of victoriousness.
 
Bullpen day for the Sox; they're going with Cooper Criswell, a 27-year-old right-hander, to start. Criswell has appeared in 14 major league games with a "career" 5.73 ERA. He pitched 2.1 innings against the G's in Boston, allowing four runs but only one was earned. He wasn't bad; Guardian hitters went 3-for-11 with two singles and a double.

I assume they'll try to get three innings out of him and then move on to their lefties. Brennan Bernardino, their best lefty out of the pen, has pitched in four of the five games against the Guardians. In 8.1 innings he's allowed 2 hits and one run. He pitched yesterday but only threw 14 pitches so I expect he'll get another inning today.

Their other three lefties in the bullpen have combined to pitch 4.2 innings against the Guardians and allowed 5 runs.

This will be their second look at Cookie in five days so we'll see if they have more success this time around.
 
This team is really cooking. Since the Gs have the worst television deal in sports and I can't stream their games, can those who watched say if this Ben Lively looks for real?
 
We have played 23 games. Over half of them have been against expected contenders/winning records.

We are 9-4 in those games. Thats a .694 percentage. Even if you don't count the two games vs Manny, off to a horrendous start, we are 7-4....636 winning percentage. Thats a 103 win pace.

We ain't just beating the bums.

This weekend we will travel to Atlanta, and everybody (me included) is saying, 'Wait til we have to face the Braves.' But two weeks ago everybody (me included) was saying, 'Wait til we face the Yankees.'

Well, we are 5-3 vs them. Thats a .625 winning percentage and a 101 win pace.

Its an unimaginable beginning to the season.
