Arod explained, "you need to play errorless free baseball."

That has not been how the Red Sox have been playing.

I think I'd rather have the Sox play error-less baseball or error-free baseball, than errorless free baseball.

ARod's phrase sounds like a double negative.

I would also like to see the Sox stop playing offense-free baseball.

And I am hoping that Robles pitches better than our last new acquisition did last night.

What is Arod talking about, Cora "turning him loose" about Kiki.

The man has 1 stolen base in 1 attempt this year.

Along with Cole whose positive test was announced yesterday, Jordan Montgomery is now positive.  Not to put to too fine a point on it, I believe that the Yankees' claim that 85% of their team has been vaccinated is a lie.

Given close quarters and what happened in Nantucket, I have no trouble believing that 85% of them are vaccinated, Yank.

I wonder how many more will test positive.

And the as yet undiscussed thing is that while almost nobody is dying from the breakthrough Delta variant, about 20% of those who do catch it seem to be having the Long Haul version.

p.s Lindsay Graham tested positive, too. He's not pitching for the rest of the season...

The Yankees history of covering up and lying about injuries (Don Gullet will be back next week!!), albeit for other reasons, makes me very cynical about anything they say.

Until these widespread outbreaks occur in teams other than the Yankees and Nationals claiming 85%, I'll consider their claims very suspicious.

I am sure there is a reason we are playing with the goal of losing, but I do not know what that reason would be.

OVERTESTING

Vaccinated + no symptoms = no need to test

Cole likely has so little in his nostril, simple trace - that it becomes ridiculous to sit him down

Where do you get this stuff, Kid?

Quote
Earlier this week, the CDC director, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, also said that new data had revealed that people who are vaccinated and test positive for the virus can carry the same viral load as people who are unvaccinated and test positive for the virus. This research found that cycle threshold (Ct) values in samples from 127 fully vaccinated people and 84 unvaccinated people were similar.

In MARCH, they believed the vaccines would reduce the viral load. They have since then discovered that this is not the case.

Same thing for you as for Ward. Stop spreading bullshit about the vaccine. Next time is 5 days.

Do your research and provide your sources.

While this paper is in pre-print, its finding on viral load align with other findings in the last 30 days.

You should take a science class. Even a 5th grade class would do you some good.
