  1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Seattle_Mariners_seasons Since 67, the Sox have only been as bad as the 2020 Mariners three times (that includes this year).
  2. @redsoxstats The Pirates seem to be running away with the #1 pick after their doubleheader sweep yesterday. Did some draft reading last night, while #2 would be nice, it’s not the end of the world. I don’t think Leiter is a lock to go there at all, for the Sox or any other team. Top 5 is key. I know some people on here believe MLB will combine '19 and '20 records for the draft, but that hasn't been confirmed at all.
  3. @houck_tanner Reaching the big leagues has always been my dream. Today, as I make my MLB debut with the @RedSox I’ll be donating $100 per K toward my Pitch For Adoption campaign. As I reach my dreams, I hope to make more dreams possible for these deserving kids.
  4. @SoxNotes Rafael Devers has a .500 OBP during his current 14-game on-base streak, reaching base in 30 of his 60 plate appearances. During that time (since 8/30), he leads the majors in AVG (.455) and leads the AL in hits (25) and XBH (10).
  5. In fact, if the money is "not" there this offseason, it's 100% due to collusion.
  6. We heard that in relation to Mookie's FA market too. The money is there. The money will always be there.
  7. The good version of Edwin Jackson? https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/leaders_most_franchises.shtml
  8. Just as likely as him signing with his hometown Dodgers after that team again falls up short in the postseason.
  9. Maybe his new splitter will be more effective against LHH than his change was?
  10. He was "fine" in Spring Training. Sox are unsure if he's a starter or bullpen guy going forward. Good chance to figure it out.
  11. Wasn't the whole point of going year to year to gear up for a big career defining contract?
  12. IMO, it'll be business as usual.
  13. I don't see them going over the cap next year. They may in 2022. Too much uncertainty in 2021 with Sale and ERod. Hard to blow your wad with all these ongoing question marks.
  14. Teams will be spending, just not the Sox.
  15. If they sign one big name player, it's not a big splash IMO. If they sign a ton of lesser known guys, it's not a big splash. I don't see them doing a Theo 2010-2011 offseason a Ben 2014-2015 offseason, or a Dombrowski 2015-2016 offseason.
  16. A 4th OFer on a large contract that is not great in a luxury cap era.
  17. Nobody cares about the Marlins down here.
  18. They aren't going to go for a big splash this offseason. No way.
  19. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports that MLB and the MLBPA reached agreement late Monday night on a plan regarding the 2020 postseason. An official announcement is expected on Tuesday. The Wild Card rounds of the playoffs are expected to take place at home ballparks, but there will be a bubble structure for the Division Series, League Championship Series and World Series. Per multiple previous reports, the ALDS will reportedly take place at Dodger Stadium (Los Angeles) and PETCO Park (San Diego) with the ALCS also taking place at PETCO. The NLDS will reportedly be played at Minute Maid Park (Houston) and Globe Life Field (Arlington) with the NLCS also taking place at Globe Life. The entire World Series is slated to occur at Globe Life Field, as well. Details were still being worked out as of a few days ago, but the goal of a bubble structure is to utilize stringent safety protocols to prevent a COVID-19 outbreak and ensure the completion of the 2020 season. Stay tuned.
  20. People down here already hate M*******s. The only people they hate more are all the NYers.
  21. I like most of your ideas, but I don't see how JD could be traded unless you're eating a ton of salary.
  22. Even with a massive overhaul, I doubt he's the type to go with 4 "established" starters.
  23. That post smells like mothballs, but I'm fine with it.
  24. Like Davey Jones, I'm a believer.
