  1. Boggs beat several HBP’s with the power of chicken and Nyquil. Suck it up Trevor.
  2. 20 (story) + 7 (wacha) + 5 (hill) + strahm (3) + pax (6) = 41. Straight cash homey.
  3. I agree that Rafaela and Valdez are ahead of Ward. Walter will probably be protected? IDK. He's another weird profile guy. He'll be 27 next September. He's only thrown 7.2 innings above AA. Command heavy and not overpowering. What's the medical situation look like?
  4. Story's base salary according to Sportrac in 2022 was $20M bucko. If you're going the lux tax route or whatever the Hell you were using, Paxton becomes $10M.
  5. At least we won't feel the need to watch it if we don't have apple TV?
  6. Paulino is way too far away to be protected. Wikelman is probably too far away to be protected this time. Would a team be likely to select Wikelman after 17 innings in High A? His Low A numbers weren't popping off the stat sheet. Murphy doesn't have a long track record of success and struggled in AAA this season. He may not be protected either. Personally, I think it's more likely that Ward is protected than any of the guys you mentioned. He's much closer in proximity to the bigs so he's easier to stash and he's performed well since coming back from TJS.
  7. There's enough other fans that still fill the void for now.
  8. Schwarber signed for $41M AAV? Holy s***! Good for him...
  9. After having Pedroia's contract for all those years, dead money is just part of the budget now.
  10. They did talk to John Henry once, which is just about as good as SoxfanForsyth did!
  11. To get 2 starting pitchers? Ok, but Garcia is going to be getting a lot of playing time.
  12. C'mon now.
  13. We'll have to ask him about Robert Johnson the next time he comes in. https://www.talksox.com/forum/members/5604-SoxFanForsyth I'm more of a Blind Willie Johnson man myself.
  14. It was a chilly night which is how our hero wound up in this predicament to begin with!
  15. It wasn't the AAA version of Larry either. It was the real deal.
  16. As the TalkSox historian, I believe it was Larry's.
  17. But you still need to factor in Garcia's $36M and I don't think a team like the Marlins would be willing to eat much salary to begin with.
  18. We did have a poster here that once gave Larry Lucchino a ride home once!
  19. Ok, so we are so very concerned about re-signing guys like Bogey and Devers and we don't want to go over the luxury tax buuuuuuuuuut... let's just dump a ton of cash on a player like Avisail Garcia for 3 more years. What? How does that make any sense? Why are we clogging our payroll at all if you guys are concerned about payroll flexibility and staying under the cap?
  20. I understand the complaint.
  21. We're much closer than you think. I do have a gorilla costume at home just like Theo!
  22. How much of that salary will they eat?
  23. Filthy pigs.
  24. Dalbec had a 765 OPS vs LHP. Maybe he's good enough to be a platoon bat at 1b? Give him other AB's in the OF/3B here and there as needed?
  25. You might need to tune that drum a little because it sounds off to me.
