In a strange, polar-vortex-related topic, “vortex” should be the next abstract team name. How terrifying would it be to face, say, the London Vortex?
- Hall of Fame voting has essentially become a farce. You need to be cleaner than an operating room and media-friendly to get in. (Ken Gurnick is only the latest example why the Hall of Fame process stinks)
- Nothing more than a shoulder shrug from Curt Schilling. Even he seems to know that it’s all bad in the end. That’s pretty sad. (Hall Of Fame ‘Completely Out Of My Control’)
- Who could be the next Hall of Famer for Boston? If everything breaks right, we’d better expect one hell of a speech from Pedro Martinez. (Who’s the Red Sox’ next Hall of Famer?)
- The Sox have starting pitching depth to trade, but won’t do anything with it until Masahiro Tanaka‘s signing establishes a market. (Tanaka’s decision could have domino effect for Red Sox)
- He was lethal against left-handers until he got hurt, and now Andrew Miller aims to regain a spot in the Sox bullpen in 2014. (Andrew Miller puts best foot forward)
- Sure, Fenway’s got The Triangle, but with fewer balls being put in play, a triple could become quite a rarity in the future. (The Dwindling Chances of Seeing a Triple)
- More beards, more success. The Patriots get it. (Mankins compares beards with those of the Red Sox)
Good thing DC has enough ice for this burn.
