Sign JBJ and Kevin Millar. They should be cheap.
-
Looks like Robert Stock won't be back next season: @RobertStock6 Thinkin about signing up for the Space Force
-
You can rent it with Prime for $1.99. -
No nerve was touched. The Mariners were 6 games below .500. In a normal year, they would have been out of in by Sept 1. This Sox team is closer to the playoffs than your Mariners team.
-
Ticket sales have NOT been an issue in over 20 years though?
-
Born into it, but one of my first Sox related memories was Yaz's last game.
-
They have had sustained success for the past 20 years and have spent a s*** ton. It's not like they've all of a sudden become a team that has no shot to make the playoffs like the Mariners. If Sale and ERod come back healthy and they sign Bauer, this team is competing with the Yanks and Rays for the division.

What situation? They could have kept Betts and reset the cap later on. They just didn't deem Betts worthy of his payday. They said they were willing to pay him 300M. If he said yes, would they just have said "whoops, sorry, we didn't really mean it?"
-
That will go on my Xmas list.
-
They could lead the league in spending every year and still make money. They don't. They have the capacity, they don't have the will. It's fine. I don't think they should automatically spend as much as possible. It was a CHOICE to not re-sign HOF bound Mookie Betts. They could have kept them if they wanted to. They didn't want to.
-
And I highly recommend the "Bill Lee: Baseball Odyssey" documentary about him barnstorming in Cuba.
-
They have the capacity. They don't have the will.
-
Well, it pushes the pick further down the road when you need a talent infusion now. Also, maybe the QO changes with the CBA?
-
Agreed.
-
The idea that is due to the time constraints of travel and having to practice (while not getting paid for it) prohibits players from even having a second job. Frankly, paying every MiLBer even $30k should be doable for these teams. They are planning on reducing the amount of leagues and teams anyway.
-
A high second rounder has a little value, probably more than just one year of Bauer.
-
Well, I just read an article about how the Sox ratings declined more than any other team in MLB. Maybe they would want to dump money on him for one year? IDK. I'm not sure I'd want him for 8 years either. I'd rather pay him more over a shorter term like 5 years.
-
No idea.
-
If someone says "I'll give you 1/35" maybe he takes it? Shouldn't be the Sox though.
-
That writer seems like a dope. Not for the rumor, but for some of the stuff he wrote in there.
-
Gammons believes the next contract will be for 1 year. I don't buy it though.
-
@ZekeJMiller WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is allowing a class-action lawsuit to proceed from minor league baseball players who allege they are being paid less than minimum wage.
-
Would Cora even want to go to the Tigers? That doesn't seem to be an org that is set up to win anytime soon.
-
Didn't want to keep their interim manager?
-
Lee derived considerable pleasure from the Red Sox victory in the 2004 World Series, and even more residual pleasure from the ALCS comeback over the team he hated most, the New York Yankees, the team he once termed “brownshirts” and “Nazis” and “thugs.” Lee watched the games with his wife from a bar in Hawaii. Also present were a collection of Yankees fans that he said shriveled up with each successive New York loss, “like testicles in a cold Nova Scotia spring.” He couldn’t resist adding the spurious news that George Steinbrenner planned to move the Yankees to the Philippines where they would play under the new name “The Manila Folders.” It's a shame we won't get him in the booth for a few series. Lee is a national treasure.
