  1. Everything is bigger in Texas even the feeling of being letdown by your favorite baseball club.
  2. Grissom? I don't know why everyone is talking about Grissom when Meidroth is right there...
  3. He had a magical self repairing arm that mystified doctors. He should have bet on himself IMO.
  4. He has too much Clay Buchholz energy IMO. I think that analogy may resonate with a lot of Sox fans here.
  5. It could be a form of self care as long as you aren't going to fall off hard later on.
  6. The interest kings are back, baby!
  7. I'm NOT a Blake Snell guy.
  8. Sox reportedly met with Blake Snell. I don't know what emoji to use for that one. 🛀📻
  9. I agree, I'm just saying there's no excuse not to get that high. The penalties are meaningless. They'll be close enough to the CBT that they could reset next season.
  10. Fanbases should be able to opt out from an ownership group, but still retain the team.
  11. They're at the point where they need to prove it to the fans.
  12. They have $50M coming off the books after this season. There is no reason to not exceed the CBT by 40M.
  13. True, I misworded that sentiment using "only."
  14. No excuses for the Sox and the CBT. They were under last year. They can go over this year. The tax penalties are less than what they paid Sale to play elsewhere.
  15. Oh, I don't think the majority of us want player opt outs in a Soto contract. Player opt outs only serve players that are underperforming the contract. I'd rather they just pay him until he's 40 with no opt outs. If there's a way to defer money and reduce the AAV, tremendous.
  16. I was agreeing with your points against our resident goober.
  17. Yup, I should just read further before replying. 🙃
  18. 8-12 years with how many opt outs? That's the only way a shorter deal gets done. Higher AAV, more opt outs.
  19. He believes so. I say no.
  20. What else do we have to go on? We can try to project Soto's "PRIME YEARS" but we know things don't always line up that way.
  21. https://www.fangraphs.com/players/seby-zavala/18887/stats?position=C Decent defensive profile. Most likely a AAA/emergency callup guy. I don't know if they have a backup catcher yet.
  22. Brandon Workman only pitched 21 MLB innings after leaving the Sox. He came back to pitch 20 more and then retire after '21. Hembree pitched until '23, but amassed -0.9 bWAR and was shuttled to 6 different locations.
  23. I saw that earlier. Hilarious. Sox would've lit that up like a Christmas tree last year.
  24. Per SoxProspects: Summation: Potential fringe back-end starter or multi-inning reliever. Ceiling of a fourth starter.
