  1. I rate this: 3 Pinocchio noses!
  2. I don't want to have to remember how to spell that.
  3. Yeah, they'd have to do that since THEY HAVE NO LEVERAGE IN TRADE NEGOTIATIONS BECAUSE THEY WANT TO CUT SALARY TO GET UNDER THE LUX TAX. Why even wait for a good trade?!?!?!?!?!?
  4. The people who still watch will always watch since there is nothing on tv in the summer anyway.
  5. I think SD is under much more of a payroll constraint than we understand.
  6. Note to self: remember to never listen to Bob Nightengale. You already learned this a long time ago, idiot. @Chandler_Rome Two sources with knowledge of the situation say there's no confirmation that the Astros will hire Dusty Baker as their manager. @BNightengale reports Houston will choose Baker, the three-time Manager of the Year winner who has won more than 1,800 games
  7. Immaterial timing difference.
  8. When Youk is pitching?
  9. Liu is ranked 24 at SoxProspects: https://soxprospects.com/players/liu-chih-jung.htm Perales is ranked 42 at SoxProspects: https://soxprospects.com/players/perales-luis.htm
  10. @BenBadler Our top 100 international prospect signings of 2019. Includes up to date scouting reports on every player heading into 2020. It’s our deepest dive ever on an international signing class. @SPChrisHatfield Sox on list: 26. RHP Chih-Jung Liu 27. RHP Luis Perales 49. OF Juan Chacon 97. OF Jhostynxon Garcia
  11. Those have fallen for years anyway.
  12. It's not over until mid March at the earliest IMO.
  13. Bob probably just has used Dusty as an unnamed source for years and years.
  14. Astros owner Jim Crane, realizing what lies ahead, had to find the man that would best insulate the clubhouse from the outside noise, and threats, keeping them together. He chose Baker. Baker is a cult of personality apparently?
  15. Yeah dude. They didn't really want to pay Lester. It was the org philosophy back then.
  16. His gravity would've just sucked those balls up like a vacuum.
  17. I don't believe you.
  18. No, it was that they had a budget for starters over 30 and didn't want to exceed it. They were never going to re-sign him back then.
  19. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2020/01/28/dusty-baker-houston-astros-manager/4559024002/
  20. IDK. Just relaying what Bob Nightengale said.
  21. They should then trade Myers in for Price, an asset they could use. A veteran presence on that pitching staff would be helpful.
  22. So then they have to sell the salary dump to a fanbase that pays through the nose for tickets. Yikes. I think that's why it's still 50/50 they just ride with Mookie for one more year.
  23. A little louder for the people in the back.
