Re: Sox Scoops 45.036: Sox Lose Bates For Season, Call Up Top Prospect Stuart To Take His Place

It's likely pure coincidence, but the Sox developed a few of these guys after a systemwide coaching upgrade (through PPt expenditures and just sifting through coaches looking for the right attributes). Jeremy Smith, who I traded to Phoenix in the Pu...

Doubt you could have waited much longer on Stuart anyway.

Make a helluva story if he pitched you to a title.
I’ll be happy if he just keeps us on track for the playoffs!

Re: Who do you follow?

I’m a Cubs fan, my parents were Cubs fans, my grandparents were Cubs fans ... greatest moment was interviewing Ernie Banks in college at Wrigley Field. After the interview, he took me out on the field ... to the pitcher’s mound, and into the outfield, where I touched the ivy. Second greatest moment:...

Re: 7 Days Lineup Questions

My only thought would be to change the pitching instruction to start the highest rested when you use 7-day lineups. I always have mine set to that, anyway, so I haven’t had any issues with 7-day lineups and pitchers.

Re: 7 Days Lineup Questions

Hey Ted - did you click “yes” to sitting your starting pitcher if he was tired? If so and he still started both games, something is jacked up.
