  1. Aside from Roman and Crochet, I'm prepared for anyone to be traded.
  2. Lita Ford was a babe back in the 80's, but I'm more of a Black Sabbath fan than an Ozzy solo album guy. Ranking Ozzy Sabbath Albums: Vol 4 Sabbath Bloody Sabbath Master of Reality Paranoid Black Sabbath Sabotage Technical Ecstasy Never Say Die! 13
  3. "Tonight, 3 hours of the Moody Blues, performed by the Moody Dudes."
  4. Jarren, Romy, Wong, Eaton and Kutter turn 30 this year. 💀 Pack it up everyone, season is ovah. Funeral starts early.
  5. Glad they got an extension on him then. Nice they gave him a vacation in '24 and eased him into the year.
  6. "They've had one yes. What about second Tommy John?" "I don't think he knows about second Tommy John, Pip."
  7. The average age of MLB pitchers is 29. I looked at TJS in 2025 and only 24% were for guys 30+ last year. Maybe older guys are more durable?
  8. I'd be worried if they signed him to 3-4 years. It's 1 year.
  9. Bello will be 27 this year and we thought we'd see improvement from him by now. Unfortunately, most of us see him not as a top of the rotation guy, but falling towards a #4. He fell apart in September (5.40 ERA, 1 W, 3 L), still walks too many guys (16th percentile k, 41st percentile bb) and is still hovering around 165 IP. If he just stopped nibbling and was better at just pitching to contact, maybe he'd be more useful. He throws too many waste pitches that nobody chases (37th percentile). He came in with a lot of hype. Sox made him the Opening Day Starter one year. People just need to reset their expectations for him IMO.
  10. Postseason in NYY Pitcher A 5 IP, 1 ER, 4 K, 2 BB, 1 H Pitcher B 2.1 IP, 2 ER, 0 K, 1 BB, 4 H, 1 HR Which would you trust?
  11. 23-25 Pitcher A 531 IP, 587 K, 132 BB, 3.63 ERA, 3.11 FIP, 1.158 WHIP Pitcher B 486 IP, 409 K, 168 BB, 4.02 ERA, 4.30 FIP, 1.311 WHIP
  12. Yeah, the broken player argument just doesn't make sense. Not every prospect is meant to work out. I can't imagine it's the pressure at that point. It's most likely the increase in skills that is harder to overcome.
  13. Second Basemen Ozzie Albies (30) – $7MM club option Bo Bichette (29) – can opt out of remaining two years, $84MM, resulting in a $5MM buyout Jazz Chisholm Jr. (29) Mauricio Dubon (32) Luis Garcia Jr. (27) Nico Hoerner (30) Jonathan India (30) Brandon Lowe (32) Gavin Lux (29) Nick Madrigal (30) Amed Rosario (31) Gleyber Torres (30) Ildemaro Vargas (35)
  14. Weird nickname for sure. Not as good as "The Wizard of Oz."
  15. Duran/Anthony could work fine. Anthony had a 770 OPS vs LHP last year, which is better than Devers's in '24 or '25.
  16. They have a 2b right now. Nobody wants to hear it though.
  17. If his confidence was ruined because of May 2025, it was never going to work out. The Sox showed their confidence in him and supported him all along the way. 🫠
  18. He can only trade jokes with one other poster from the midwest. Nobody else will trade with him anymore.
