    The Boston Red Sox-How far will they go?

    How does this team matchup vs the Tampa Bay Rays?

    This city has a history of winning championships

    They are one and done.


    Rays are well rounded.

    Tampa Bay has the better bullpen, that should be the difference.

    The sky is the limit with Redsox. Don't underestimate the heart of a champion.

    I always thought they overachieved this year.

    There isn't enough in that line up that scares me and I'm not sold on that pen.

    I think if given the shot, you take +$$ against them

    Kike Hernandez is the most clutch player in MLB.

    if I was starting a team I would start with him.

    Meaning he's not even in the top 80 players you would consider first when building a team.
    Think about what you're saying man.
    Not saying he doesn't deliver when it counts.

    Depending on what a front office wants to start with you start with albeit a postition player like an Acuna, Mike Trout, Ohtani, Tatids, Vlad Jr. type.
    Or you start with a light's out SP like deGrom for instance first.

    You DO NOT start with a Kike type first.

    Sorry to come across harsh man, but think man, think.

    Big Bear?
    Is this your new ghost account?

    Clutch Player is all I meant. A good clubhouse guy team player.

    it takes a team to win.

    look at the Giants and Rays, no super stars and fantastic records

    Obviously I am not saying Kike Hernandez is as talented as Trout or Tatis.

    But he is a guy you want in the trenches with you. He plays his best ball when it matters most.

    Boston?

    As a KC fan I'm OK with the Red Sox.
    Astros, now that's a team I can't stomach.

    LaRussa hates dusty. I can't wait, going to be great when the White Sox end their season.
    I have the White Sox +$110 for their Alds series, also took them +$275 for the AL pennant and +$715 for the World Series

    Shut up bitch. Boston and New York were doing this before it ever came here. The Yankees had to pull some strings to get their letter closed for now. You guys worship your steroid era cheaters. Keep defending Gruden since it's in your Boston nature. Marky Mark sucks but I'll admit Jay and Silent Bob are cool.

    At most Boston has a shot with Eovaldi and maybe Sale
    it should not be enough to win the pennant.
