    You guys are no fun sometimes.

    What were the Sox doing in 2013 tho?????

    The last bet I made was with Kimmi and she disappeared soon after. I don't want to do that to the #3 ranked TalkSox member.

    That's why it's exciting.
  5. mvp 78
    I had this problem in HS too.

    *cough cough*
  7. mvp 78
    Nope.

    The Yanks didn't win s*** last year so nobody cares about them.
  9. mvp 78
    He only plays Golden Eye now.
  10. mvp 78
    I bet he doesn't and pitches a QS.

    It's only a cliff if Henry takes his checkbook home with him.

    It's more likely that he starts about 30. He's missed about that much in seasons where he hasn't started off on the injury list wondering about TJS.

    Interesting that you skipped 2016 where he was 35 for 35. He's missed 36 out of 134 starts, or 10%. Not that big of a deal to me. Basically he's due to miss about 5 games this year. Cool. Skewing your argument by starting your timeline at the point where we all thought he needed TJS is kinda funny.

    Waiting on SP in FA is a fool's errand more often than not.

    So the Braves 3 top prospects plus some relievers? I'd think about it. Top prospects don't always pan out. Devers is marching towards HOF.

    Speier stated that DD trusted his personal instincts over everything else. It did lead him to being a very successful GM, but it seems like he should have probably dialed it down at least a little bit. Apparently, it wasn't a very great place to work. Side note: Speier's book was written well before DD was let go so it's not just sour grapes. https://www.amazon.com/Homegrown-How-Built-Champion-Ground/dp/0062943553

    The worst.
  19. mvp 78
    It gave us something to talk about I guess?
  20. mvp 78
    That's what has been stated over and over. DD disregarded his scouts based on his own personal feelings for guys. Scouts wanted to keep Allen, DD didn't care about the guy and his need to fill the MLB roster just caused him to put Allen into the trade. Speier stated in his new book that at the end of the negotiations, the Padres asked if they could have Allen too and DD just said fine. Most remaining Sox people believe the deal would have been 100% done without Allen involved.
  21. mvp 78
    Nah.
  22. mvp 78
    I thought it was a virtual lock that he won't be available at all?
  23. mvp 78
    Bloom's big plan is to leave via gorilla suit at some point?
  24. mvp 78
    1. Probably believe they can stand pat and compete, but will wait and see if a good offer comes up. 2. They think they can go to ST without naming manager because they are only looking internally and maybe want to see how the internal guys stack up day to day.
  25. mvp 78
    How do you think it differs?
