  1. @DodgersBeat I asked Stan Kasten last week about Drive-in Baseball. He said they were in discussions on a number of projects just like that but nothing to announce yet What is more comfortable: couch/bathroom/fridge combo or a car?
  2. I watched it for half an inning on Twitter. It was cool.
  3. This is Jon Lester all over again. He's not coming back.
  4. @TomCaron Hot summer day at Fenway. Red-hot intrasquad scrimmage action starts at 2 pm. Sox vs Sox.
  5. In like a Spring Traning complex that has 4 fields already? Or in an MLB stadium?
  6. So don't schedule the late games on get away days? A lot of teams avoid that problem. Red Sox ownership doesn't care at all about the issue. I was one of the talking points back in 2012.
  7. They haven’t finalized the 60 man yet. May only finalize 58. Duran will most likely be on it.
  8. Julian McWilliams: Sox intrasquad game set for 2PM tomorrow. Don’t be surprised if you see Jason Varitek calling some of the games behind home plate.
  9. In a weird season when everyone is already miserable, pushing start times back is not the olive branch that fans want.
  10. Bobby Dalbec and Eduardo Rodriguez have tested positive, Ron Roenicke said. Dalbec is asymptomatic. Rodriguez is feeling better. Obviously both have to test negative before returning.
  11. But what if a team wants to go over the draft bonus pool amount? If a team goes over its threshold by 5 percent or less, it must pay a "luxury tax" of 75% on the amount over the threshold. Teams that go 5 to 10 percent over must pay a 100% tax on the excess, and will lose their next first-round pick. A team that goes 15 percent over can lose its next two first-round picks, in addition to the "luxury tax".
  12. Red Sox ($5,129,900 draft pool) Nick Yorke, 1st round, 17th overall. Slot value: $3,609,700 (Expected to sign) Blaze Jordan, 3-89. Slot value: $667.9K (Signed for $1.75MM) Jeremy Wu-Yelland, 4-118. Slot value: $487.9K Shane Drohan, 5-148. Slot value: $364.4K $679k left to sign the 4th and 5th rounders. Both should sign for under slot.
  13. @jimcallisMLB 1st-rder Nick Yorke signs with @RedSox for $2.7 mil (slot 17 value = $3,609,700). California HS 2B, surprise 1st-rder but also one of best prep bats on West Coast, Boston loves offensive upside & didn't think he get to its next pick in 3rd rd. Arizona recruit @MLBDraft
  14. Reportedly, Manfred jumped all over Mike Rizzo for his statement about testing yesterday. Manfred is losing it. Interested to see how he'll bungle next year's negotiations.
  15. That's how much it would cost for me to watch baseball on ESPN+ plus. It's not deceiving or inaccurate.
  16. @mlbtraderumors Juan Soto Isolating Under Coronavirus Protocol
  17. This is about the cost to watch baseball, nothing else. I don't care about anything else on ESPN+ because I rarely watch it.
  18. Just trying to provide information on here and get away from the other less savory parts of the forum, wise guy
  19. Price of each MLB service for the 60-game Season: •MLB TV: $59.99 •MLB Extra Innings: $89.99 • *ESPN+: $5.99 *ESPN+ only broadcasts one or two random games per day*
  20. @lindseyadler MLB considers Joe West a high-risk individual. He plans to return for this season despite that. "I don’t believe in my heart that all these deaths have been from the coronavirus."
  21. God, no. This is the worst decision. MLB should be staggering games 1pm, 4pm, 7pm, 10pm (PST games) for the whole season. Pushing everything to 730 is so dumb. So most games won't end until after 1030? Dumb. Dumb. Dumb.
  22. 7 on the road against the Yankees, 3 at home. WTF?
  23. @ChrisCotillo Re: testing difficulties... One baseball source called me late last week and described entire testing process as a gigantic mess. Said players were concerned over large amount of false positives and that some were starting to seek independent tests away from team facilities. I am completely shocked by this!
