  1. It makes me think that Sox ownership really didn't have an interest in signing a contract that large. I get the argument, I just disagree with it. Oh well. I wish he signed the extension months ago so that the bandaid could be pulled off all at once. At least we'll have actual baseball to talk about real soon. Hasn't been much good stuff to talk about with this team for a long while.
  2. I want Mookie for that deal. I understand that my viewpoint is in the minority. I think Mookie is the type of player that will make that contract worthwhile.
  3. Rumor is that the Dodgers are working on a 10 year 350/400 extension.
  4. One guy said that the two easiest teams on their schedule this year are the Marlins and Red Sox. Whoops. I hope that's not the case.
  5. DHern, but not this year probably.
  6. I'm not super high on him or Barnes either, but I think they are far better options than Brasier.
  7. I lucked out and only have the Marlins blacked out. My cable package includes the Rays/Lightning channel though.
  8. Reading this O's thread on win projections made me sad.
  9. They are going to get bought and moved to Nashville, right?
  10. I missed it, sadly. We'll see how many BOSOX broadcasts I get through MLB.TV. Do they offer both home and away broadcasts, or is it random?
  11. If Brasier is the closer, they are tanking.
  12. I wouldn't expect Weber to pitch into the 6th inning ever. I always figured he'd be the piggyback 4 inning (at most) guy.
  13. Alex Cobb Wade LeBlanc Glad they are going with the "remember that guy" formula.
  14. Every starter for the O's after Means is anticipated to have an ERA above 5. WTF...
  15. That's the worst opening day starter I can think of. Wow...
  16. Gotta keep that narrative going somehow!
  17. Even money on Moreland since he keeps turning up like a bad penny.
  18. Supposedly at a discount even though when it was signed it was the largest 2b contract in the game.
  19. But, if the Sox can somehow go 6-4 against one and 7-3 against the other (doable in a short season), it really gives them an inside track into getting into the playoffs.
  20. Uh, how many LAST DAMN PLACE seasons did Ben have again?
  21. And the problem with trades is that you can only trade for guys in another team's 60 player pool. It really limits the type of prospects you can get when you move your established players. I don't believe Pillar/Moreland/JBJ would bring much back in return. I think dealing Workman makes sense. I'm not sure what kind of return you could get for JD since he has a weird contract and the other team doesn't really know JD's long term expectations. I bet JD rides out his whole contract because I don't think he could get more on the open market, especially in light of the potential impact COVID may have on FA next year.
  22. Verdugo, Chavis and Dalbec need AB's too. I think Roenicke just goes with a normal/boring starting lineup for the most part. I doubt Arauz gets more than 10-15 starts unless there is an injury. If there were more high end young pitchers, we'd probably see more interesting choices there. I bet Wong and Downs hang out in PAW for the whole year.
