Preparing for a Jiu Jitsu tournament in July means tough training days with amazing professors and training partners, and mental relaxation and rest days. It also means my diet is more important than ever. So tonight we’ve got 2 Cod filets, a baked potato, 10 shrimp, and some steamed asparagus.

With Blake Snell signed, if the Dodgers sign Sasaki, I legit don’t know how the league is gonna handle this. The Dodgers aren’t technically doing anything wrong, but it reminds me of when the NBA vetoed a trade to send Chris Paul to the Lakers, because it would create a major competitive advantage.

Thinking about the Red Sox upping their initial offer, I wonder if they were Juan Soto’s choice, but the numbers weren’t quite right, so Soto asked them to meet his request. Or, the Sox felt they needed to really blow the doors off to show Soto they’re serious about him. Or it’s FOMO LMAO

If the Red Sox sign Juan Soto, I will personally buy John Henry a wheelbarrow to carry around his giant balls.

6 guys scored in double digits and Tatum and Pritchard had 20 a piece. Porzingis had a fantastic first game back scoring 16 in just 23 minutes, and the C’s racked up a 32 point win! The Super Team is back! #DifferentHere  #Celtics #Boston

I’d love to have Juan Soto. But, I’d love to see the days of Red Sox past where we went into the season with 2 well established aces in the rotation. Pedro/Schilling, Beckett/Schilling and budding Jon Lester, Lester/Buchholz, and then Price/Sale. We get Fried/Snell or Crochet, we’re back in business
000
Alex aka Soldier_1stClass @soldier1stclass.bsky.social · 25/11/2024
Exactly. I can understand wanting to improve your defense if you get a starting pitcher who’s similar to Houck in ground ball specialty, but the 2024 Red Sox offense was streaky at best. We need consistency.
010
Alex aka Soldier_1stClass @soldier1stclass.bsky.social · 25/11/2024
I feel ya. I’m tired of the excuses. Not getting Soto isn’t a deal breaker for me because that’s being left up to chance at this point. But getting Crochet is possible in a trade, and Fried/Snell seem like legitimate possibilities for us to get. Roki Sasaki is out there too. Here’s hoping!

Alex aka Soldier_1stClass @soldier1stclass.bsky.social · 25/11/2024
Hon’t know what people are on with the Duran/Casas trade talks. Duran was by far our best player this season and we need to make him a lifer. To me he’s the current leader. Casas is a guy with 40+ HR Potential, though I agree he needs to stay healthy. People wrote off Duran before this year too.

Offer sheets for Juan Soto go out this week, which means we’re in the home stretch Red Sox fans! Is Sox management actually serious, or is this another “full throttle” offseason? I need to see either a deal for Soto, Snell, Fried, or Crochet happening soon before I get truly hyped.

If the Red Sox actually pull off getting Soto, Max Fried, AND Garrett Crochet, than I’ll truly believe they finally give a shit again. They don’t have to get all of them, but at least one or two of them would show they are finally ready to spend again and turn the corner.

David Ortiz being so high on Juan Soto has me excited for the future. If we actually sign him, I think Papi deserves a statue at Fenway Park. Just sayin #BigPapi #Boston #JuanSoto #RedSox

Alex aka Soldier_1stClass @soldier1stclass.bsky.social · 21/11/2024
If anyone is convincing Soto that Boston should be his new home, it's David Ortiz. They're too closely linked for this to not have substance. That and I honestly don't think he ever becomes "the Guy" on either the Yankees or Mets. Yankees have Judge already, and the Mets seem to be Lindor's team

Alex aka Soldier_1stClass @soldier1stclass.bsky.social · 21/11/2024
What do you think of the David Ortiz phone call incident at the Sam Kennedy interview? I see no other reason why Kennedy would be happy with the call unless there was some substance behind Papi calling him.

Red Sox signed Seby Zavala for catching depth. Dude can block and frame pitches really well, but he's only play 91 games over the last two years. I think we're seeing a couple gap players in Wong and Zavala til Kyle Teel is ready for the Show.

Incredible article about Sam Kennedy and the Red Sox willing to go over the luxury tax to win next season. This section about Ortiz calling Kennedy during a press conference was interesting. Is Big Papi courting Juan Soto right now? Is he a Red Sox soon? www.bostonglobe.com/2024/11/20/s...
bostonglobe.com
Sam Kennedy opens up about Red Sox’ plans to spend this offseason, including for a big-ticket free agent like Juan Soto - The Boston Globe
When it comes to payroll, Kennedy noted the Red Sox are prepared to expand the budget. “Even if it takes us over the CBT,” he said.

No one in baseball deserved the Cy Young award more than Chris Sale. He had one of the greatest comebacks of all time, and despite how some Red Sox fans under appreciate him, he was one of my favorite players while he was here. Congrats Chris Sale, you definitely deserve it. HOF in his future.

Alex aka Soldier_1stClass @soldier1stclass.bsky.social · 20/11/2024
I’m torn. On one hand, the Red Sox signing Soto would be an insane get and a generational talent. BUT, with how much the Sox are under the luxury tax right now, they could legitimately sign Fried, Burnes, or Snell, AND Trade for Garrett Crochet. Our rotation would be terrifying.

That game was way more stressful than it needed to be. Between Tony Brothers being the worst ref in the NBA, Queta's terrible play, and some of the lazy defense by in the third quarter, we almost didn't deserve that win. But, the Cavs get their first loss and Celtics take the W!

I'm online shopping for Magic the Gathering cards, and as my friend @raycoffman.bsky.social says, "they call it Magic because it makes your money disappear" I'm trying to decide whether I want to grab a Foundations Starter box and a bunch of singles for my vampire deck, or grab the booster boxes.

Nick Pivetta didn’t accept the qualifying offer, so the Red Sox will receive a compensation pick, something we’ve done well with in recent years. I was originally upset by the offer, but Breslow ended up reading the free agent market well, and looked like a genius doing it. Now sign Juan Soto LMAO

If Jon Jones has nothing to prove to Tom Aspinall, he needs to give up the belt and let Tom be the full time champ. If all Jon cares about now is legacy fights, stop holding the division up. Aspinall is a fighting champion and is willing to fight. Either stop ducking Tom, give up the belt, or retire

Nice!! We went to 4 games there while we were on vacation. Green Monster, Front row next to the visiting bullpen, front row at Pesky’s Pole, and then just behind home plate. No other stadium like it!

I’m just glad someone’s willing to have a rational discussion about it lmao Twitter is a cesspool about stuff like this. But yeah, I love Mookie, can’t hate the guy, he kind got screwed in Boston tbh. He’s a likable guy, so I have nothing against him, he just didn’t deserve the award.

Yeah no shit LMAO like yeah, let’s not get the biggest available generational talent and wait on Jimmy McJimmerson to come out of Appalachian State and take 4 years in the minors and show up at 28 lmao

Yeah I finally played again last weekend, and before that it had been like 3-5 years.

Alex aka Soldier_1stClass @soldier1stclass.bsky.social · 16/11/2024
Like if Mookie had played more than 50 games in the outfield and more total games overall, there’d definitely be a case for Mookie, but as it stands, there’s no reason other than bias/World Series for him making first team outfield.

Saw the dumbest take yet on this whole Juan Soto situation. The Yankees gave him a Qualifying Offer, to get a 2nd Round pick in case he signs anywhere else. I’m legit seeing people say, “well teams aren’t gonna want to give up a 2nd Rounder just to sign him.” ITS JUAN FUCKIN SOTO
