  1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father_Christmas_Is_Back I can't believe there's a Christmas movie with John Cleese, Kelsey Grammer and Elizabeth Hurley. How'd I miss that one last holiday season?
  2. It would be hilarious whenever the Yahoo autodraft managerless team won. How bad would the league be if a computer that autodrafted a team and made no moves during the year won the championship?
  3. Yahoo autodrafts a 12th team with no manager.
  4. When you can't even get the guy's name right...
  5. @alexspeier Both Xander Bogaerts and Rafael Devers said they had extension talks with the Red Sox in recent days, but barring a very unexpected development, neither expects an extension prior to Opening Day, and neither wants to discuss contracts in-season
  6. @NBCSEdgeBB Red Sox talked extensions with Devers, Bogaerts
  7. That's an A700 question. He said there are only 10 teams now. Maybe one needs to be taken off the league? Anyway, here's the thread for all the fantasy discussion: https://www.talksox.com/forum/threads/20002-2021-TalkSox-Fantasy-Baseball-League-Mike-Grace-Memorial-League?p=1455323#post1455323
  8. Unfortunately, notin won't be able to beat up on Thunder's team this year.
  9. Per the other thread, he hasn't seen the email confirmation.
  10. I don't think Hill is going to be a stopper, but I think he'll be better than 2021 Richards or Perez.
  11. Number of times in 2021 he gave up more than 4 runs in a start: 0.
  12. Rich Hill starts: 3/22 2IP, 2H, BB, 2K, 0R - ok start 3/27 3IP, 1H, 0BB, 3K, 0R - pretty good start 4/1 3.2IP, 11H, 0BB, 1K, 9R - horrible start where the Sox took him out of the game and then brought him back the following inning Which is the outlier?
  13. If you prorate 2020 to a whole season, Hill has only had one season below 1 fWAR since before he was with the Sox last go around in 2015.
  14. I agree on putting $$$ towards the rotation. I'm not sold on Paxton/Hill/Wacha is better than just signing Syndergaard or someone else.
  15. If they are playing like last year, you take a chance on the playoffs. If it's closer to 2019, you sell IMO.
  16. I believe that Bloom has a long term vision. A lot of people shouted that we'd just be Tampa Bay North. I think the Story signing disproves that. I think Bloom wants a strong farm system that can add a few guys to the MLB club every offseason. With a large payroll, you'd start to look more like the Dodgers juggernaut. I think that's the end goal, not the Rays.
  17. I'd sell even if they are "in contention." If they don't have a decent shot at winning it all, just move on.
  18. It very well could be the plan. Xander, JD, Eovaldi, Kiké and Vaz could be all out the door this offseason. I guess there's a outside chance Sale opts out, but I'm not sold on his health this year. If you are in 4th place, may as well trade the guys you don't plan on re-signing.
  19. @IanMBrowne Penultimate game of Spring Training. Hernández CF, Devers 3B, Bogaerts SS, Martinez LF, Story 2B, Dalbec 1B, Bradley DH, Arroyo RF, Plawecki C, Houck P Seems like the normal batting order will be: Kiké Devers Bogey JD Verdugo Story Dalbec Vaz JBJ
  20. NEWS FLASH @NBCSEdgeBB Rich Hill named Red Sox' fifth starter to open '22
  21. @PavlovicNBCS MLB announced previously reported rule changes (28-man roster in April, ghost runners, etc.). Any options used while rosters are expanded won't count toward limit of five. @nightengalejr MLB announced rule changes for the 2022 season: -28-man rosters through May 1. Maximum of 13 pitchers on 26-man roster afterward. -10-day IL for pitchers until May 2. -Players can be optioned a max. of 5 times, but any options before May 2 don't count toward that number.
  22. I would say that it does burn an option year whenever a guy is called up to be the 27th man in a doubleheader.
  23. Agree.
  24. Hard to say. The new agreement hasn't been posted online yet.
  25. I think Bloom believes Crawford will make an impact this year. Whichever pitcher gets demoted to the pen from the rotation should be decent there. He is also probably projecting a jump for Wickowski, Zack Kelly and maybe Bello this season. I think they have some arms, just that the Opening Day lineup is a little too hodgepodge. This team should be better on July 1 than April 1.
