Still garbage defensively but i'll take it.

He's worthless

He brings excitement...no lead is safe.

I'd rather they put the ball on a tee

Drafted Panda in all my fantasy leagues after he tore it up in spring

Needs more theatrics than a tee can deliver. Tee also has too good control

Legit laugh

Matt Cain gives up a BOMB to the first batter he faces. I'm in a weird spot - Want to win games, but him getting yanked from the rotation is a positive.

 

[Easy The Great]

Another Odor bomb! Hes gonna have an All-Star season

 

[Easy The Great]

Grand Slam Mazara!

Tampa's stadium is so laughably ghetto.

Another HR taken away by the catwalk tonight. Jesus Christ, burn that shit hole to the ground already.

Love that they have an all-world defensive outfielder yet a park that mangles deep hits. It's like a cruel prank

Not that the Sox need another Outfielder but Margot should have netted them more then Kimbrel, who i think is a train wreck waiting to happen.

What happened to Kimbrel? He was dope as fuck in Atlanta

Control issues. He walked far too many guys last year and it seemed like ever AB was a 6-7 pitch battle. Plus the fact that he cannot give you more then 3 outs and literally was terrible every time there wasn't a save on the line.

He was pretty good for a long stretch there but you might remember him more for 2 of his worst outings against the Yankees. The AL East Walk off loss clincher and then another game in August where he walked like 4 guys and threw about 40 pitches before Farrell pulled him.

 

[Easy The Great]

Mazara has 6 RBIs tonight

 

[Sauce Castillo]

Liriano with early contender for worst performance of the year

Are there any other stadiums/fields that have similar things happen? (Hitting something to stop a HR or stop someone from catching a fly ball) doesn't the league have to approve fields?

Do you think it might be the added pressure of playing in Boston? I mean no offense Atlanta I just feel there'd be even more pressure in Boston. (And NYY, LAD, etc) could he benefit from a sports psychologist?

Nothing that comes to mind. Most stadiums with a roof are engineered to avoid such things.

Only in Florida...
