Im not sure what to think of the Red Sox this season. It seems like year to year they go back and forth as one of the best teams in the AL East or literally the worst. They finished in last place last year and then followed it with a bad offseason. I want to be optimistic but I cant shake the feeling that they're in for another last place season.

Oh so well said . I’m ok with most of the rule changes except for watering down division rivalries with change in scheduling. I just don’t get how this is appealing to any fan . Dan

Oh man, Nick. I was actually able to go watch Roger Clemmons pitch against the Braves in '85 I think? ****, what a treat! Man, that was at the old Fulton County Stadium when Dale Murphy and Captain Bob Horner played for the ATL
LOL, I'll never forget it, I bought a Red Sox cap!
Back then, the Rockett was my favorite player

I hear ya Dan. If it's about playing different Leagues then I understand. Although, I do like it but, not a lot of it. I feel that a couple series should suffice
I mean, I was greatfull to be able to go see the New York Yankees play ATL in 2012 ( Chippers last year ) there were A LOT of future Hall of Famers on Turner Field that night.

Yes that would be a chance of a lifetime , I may spoiled with the Midwest rivalries :smlling-eyes. I just don’t see the point of playing every team in. The American League or vise versa . Sure it affects the win / loss columns but miss the emotional impact especially among friends . Dan

Here we go again. The Bravos are leading the NL East and I'm happy, but how long will it take for them to mess that up?

Well, if the commercials on the pitchers mound weren't bad enough, now they are on the jerseys
Just saw a **** Kroger patch on a Cincinnati Reds player. On his sleeve
This pisses me off to no end!!!!!
Like we don't get enough commercials already and ads to buy everything in the world already!

The bigger these contracts are going the more of this crap we will endure . Price to go to a pro game is ridiculous for average guy wanting to take his family . I’m glad I have a Class A Cardinal a half hour away. . Nice to see future prospects too .
