  1. Devers is kicking it right now. He can hit anywhere for me.
  2. “Experts.” But if there’s a degree on their wall, I haven’t seen one.
  3. Everybody needs to rest once in a while.
  4. Weren't you just talking about salary cap hell? Sometimes you make no sense.
  5. Nope. It'll take less to get Machado as a rental. Devers straight up for Machado is an overpay.
  6. You can write about whoever, I just think you need to be reasonable in your expectations. Not everyone is going to be an All Star. Pom is on the DL and may not see the rotation in a Sox uni again. Nunez is clearly injured. Devers is a 20 year old 3b who'd be the oldest POSITION player in Salem. No POSITION player in Salem is under 22 right now.
  7. Good news is that he'll be on payroll through 2021 thanks to his below market deal.
  8. Ingredients 1/4 cup mayonnaise. 2 tablespoons honey. 1 tablespoon yellow mustard. 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard. 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice. 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce. I'm gonna have to try a home made version.
  9. There are enough other people contributing to it tho.
  10. I think they do their homework every year. They don't often fail to sign someone who they expected to sign. The problem is that the MLB is the biggest crap shoot of all the drafts. I like their plan of adding some power bats (something the org really lacked) and some high end relievers that could rocket through the system.
  11. I'm too set in my political sphere to eat there.
  12. 1/3 of all starting 3b's are worse defensively than Devers. Let's complain about it endlessly since every starter needs to be an All Star in 2018. We can't wait a year or two for him to get HOF numbers.
  13. 847 OPS the past 10 days. Send him down tho!
  14. Rick is going to throw that D around like a fish at Pike Place.
  15. .289 BABIP. I think he has had a fair share of bad luck. He's swinging at more pitches in the zone this year. He's making hard contact. I'd love to see him k less, but everyone is Rob Deer now.
  16. Deadline deals are overrated IMO. Maybe get a reliever or two on the cheap, but not a high profile guy.
  17. On fries that have zero flavor, ketchup works best. If anything other than Heinz: GTFO. Don't bring that Frenchs/Hunts/store brand in my house... You'll be thrown down the trap door. On properly flavored fries, a garlic mayo is my favorite. There needs to be a heavy volume of garlic in it though.
  18. Calling up Beni was a panic move. Betts rapid ascension in 2014 was a panic move. You know what would also be a panic move? Sending Devers down right now.
  19. We already saw his season bottom out though. I'm sure every other GM has looked at his May numbers and his past history and are just realizing there isn't much meat left on that bone.
  20. Why trade for him in July when you can just sign him in November if you really want to?
  21. This team has 3 more wins than any other team in baseball. Worrying about a 20 year old 3b who has shown flashes of being the future of your team is wasted energy IMO.
  22. Not a chance. Sox probably don't have a package that would make sense for the O's, but def not one centering around a 29 year old with a 1.4 WHIP.
  23. Ideally, a closer needs to have 2 good pitches (unless you are Mariano Rivera). Kelly has a straight 100 mph FB and not much else. Kimbrel works so well because he can throw nasty offspeed stuff. Kelly doesn't have that.
