    Just typing those phrases made the hair I don't have on my neck stand up.
    Carlos Baerga has never done any of those things either. Carol Burnett? Jury is still out…

    That’d be the only way to get him. Assuming no kidnapping…

    Carol Burnett took down Saul Goodman. She's a badass.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    Charlie Brown was a pitcher, too. And he dogged up to sign Snoopy to a lifetime contract to stay with the Peanuts gang, when Disney targeted him as a Pluto upgrade.

    Maybe the Beagle didn't play shortstop his entire career... but he could still retrieve longballs in the gap, after moving to centerfield (like a bird who also made the bigs in his teens, Robin Yount).

    So, reports out that we offered Yamo $300M.

    I think that makes us a top 3 choice.

    I hope Yamamoto did not want the secrecy Ohtani demanded, and some fool on the Sox leaked the offer amount.

    As far as I know, no other team released an offer amount.

    I hope the Sox didn't leak that info for us, so they could emoji shrugged shoulders when he goes to NY

    Glasnow’s LAD extension - 5 years $136.5mill.

    That’s a lot of years for a pitcher with 330 IP since 2018…

    I was thinking the same thing. One more "We came so close!"

    I'm not falling for it, again. We better get some real quality talent, somehow, of I'll be riding the Sham Wagon for another year, at least.

    They must like him more than Imanaga, although they may sign him, too.

    Is Cohen waiting in the wings to offer $5M more than the top offer between SFG & BOS?

    Does this mean NYY are out?
