  1. The next negotiation meeting between MLB and MLBPA has yet to be scheduled.
  2. In June 2020, Rosenthal’s analysis of Manfred for The Athletic featured some light criticism, but it didn’t appear to delve into anything personal. In one piece, Rosenthal wrote, “As if the perception that Manfred is beholden to owners and out of touch with players was not bad enough, he was trending on Twitter on Monday after performing a massive flip-flop.” Since then, Rosenthal’s role was slightly diminished at the network. Now, he’s out entirely.
  3. Nope. -0.5 dWAR. -8 runs above average.
  4. And wouldn't the "big market" teams be ok with it?
  5. With Speier, just think "is it i before e or e before i" and it's both. SpEIEr.
  6. We are told that they are in on Seiya Suzuki for RF. We'll see if it happens.
  7. Per most advanced defensive stats, he was the worst RFer for the Sox since Wily Mo. His arm was lipstick on a pig.
  8. I originally read this as "So Manfred lacks humanity?" and agreed 100%.
  9. @nypost Ken Rosenthal out at MLB Network due to previous criticism of Rob Manfred
  10. Downs started the fall league off white hot and then just collapsed. He may be a JBJ type hitter without the great defense.
  11. I don't think he's batting 1.000, that's for sure.
  12. I sleep very soundly at night because I put TalkSox head scratching posts behind me and move on with my life.
  13. Definition of head-scratcher informal. : something that is confusing, mysterious, or hard to understand We understand the trade. We know why he did it. It's not mysterious or unknowable. If you disagree with something, it doesn't make it a head scratcher.
  14. Especially since that investment was out the door before the trade was even a twinkle in his eye.
  15. I'm fine with you agreeing. I just don't understand your head scratching. You can disagree with the reasoning behind the trade and state that it's wrong. That's a fair assessment. You continuing to say it's a head scratcher just makes YOU look bad.
  16. It just shouldn't be a "head scratcher." We've all made the case for why the trade was done. You just don't want to listen.
  17. Capital offense? Now who's doing the strawman?
  18. If you thought they could go over the lux tax cap, it wouldn't be a head scratcher. Also, that wasn't a strawman.
  19. Sign Suzuki. Trade some prospects for A's pitchers. Call it a day.
  20. The offseason isn't half over. Maybe they use their prospects to trade for starting pitching? Maybe they think replacing Richards and Perez is easy to do? Maybe they think a full season of a healthy Sale will make up for losing ERod?
  21. "It's a head scratcher because they definitely won't go over the budgetary estimate that I came up with all on my own." Wild.
  22. Why are you more concerned about Bloom's budget than he is? If he's not concerned about it, maybe your budget estimate is wrong?
