  1. Considering there are three different underage girls tied to this mess, it's obviously a criminal situation either way. He didn't get 18 months of preventive prison due to it being a complex case 'cause he's rich, and an athlete. He's a flight risk and should be in prison with the rest of the preventive population. You should reap what you sow.
  2. For context, a 7 IP/ 4 ER start is a 5.14 ERA.
  3. 184.1 IP/204 K/ 5.27 FIP At his worst, he's a reliable 5 on a good rotation, at his best, he's a CY candidate.
  4. I made a thread about the Sale extension dum dums.
  5. The Braves and left-hander Chris Sale have agreed to a new deal, which will pay him $38MM over the next two years. There’s also an $18MM club option for 2026. Sale was already under contract via an extension he previously signed with the Red Sox but this will overwrite that. prt mlbtr
  6. No thanks on Snell though.
  7. I'll form an opinion one way or the other once the roster is finished. Too much making stuff up for my taste, specially from you MVP, since you're an expert in calling people out for teaching at "Make s*** up university". You're the reason I distrust red hair whenever I see it
  8. I came here to post exactly this. I stated pretty clearly that Wacha's performance is very fielding dependent, no matter the sample. This is, at best, an average defensive team that needs IP more than anything else. Also, and I've said this before, 200 K starters don't grow on trees. If there's an anomaly to Giolito's performance, it's giving up 40 bombs. Any type of regression model you use has Giolito being better this year than he was last year, and almost certainly more valuable than Michael "Owie, missed another month" Wacha.
  9. Two of the girls were around 14 when this happened, and Franco is a married man, so yes, it is very freaky.
  10. Shifting across the diamond is not as easy as y'all are making it out to be, in general, and it's even harder for a player that's not particularly tall.
  11. A very sensible take. Color me inpressed
  12. For a team that needs IP more than anything else, that's a delusional take.
  13. I'd feel for him if two other underage girls hadn't come forward against him. He likes 'em young
  14. She clearly sold the girl to Franco for gains. They lied about he age and then extorted him until he told then to f*** off, that's when she exposed him.
  15. I can't get excited about Michael f***ing Wacha. He's not durable, and he's very fielding dependent on a year-to-year basis. He's also a whitebeard now, and he's not on the Red Sox. Why would I care?
  16. Jesus Christ, why'd I reopen that can of worms
  17. DA is asking for 5 million dop guarantee, a travel alert (can't leave the country through any means with that), and periodic visits. Treated with kid gloves 'cause he's rich. Girl's mom is also detained, and all signs point to her ending up in the slammer.
  18. I don't understand the fascination with Wacha
  19. I liked Yamamoto and Gray. I liked Giolito as a bounce-back candidate but I'm iffy on the Sox' pitching program.
  20. That's like 5 out of the hundreds of contested free agent negotiations
  21. He's consistently s*** on the Sox for years whether they are good or bad. I don't give a rat's ass what the reports are saying now, he's a hack.
  22. One important thing to note, which I believe notin mentioned, is that players can pretty much say whatever the hell they want about negotiations past, current, or present, but teams are generally constrained by the MLBPA and future negotiating positions to not talk about this type of stuff. If you look at it from a league-wide perspective, teams basically never directly touch on these subjects.
  23. Masarotti is the Old Red of baseball journalists.
