  1. Imanaga was cheap enough to be a midrotation guy too. His contract didn't break the bank.
  2. I wonder why people are gushing over Chris Sale, a guy who has 7 AS appearances and closed out a WS for the hometown team?
  3. And then you have Kavadas AND another Smith clogging up the 40 man? If Kavadas is added to the 40 man, he's the backup going forward no matter how bad he plays (a la Dalbec).
  4. Mata has given up 3 runs in 4 innings in the FCL and Salem. Callup Valdez and Kavadas both LHB platoon DHs?
  5. Nobody laughed at signing Lugo. Most people just look at his history and don't know if he'll hold up over the long haul with a starter's workload. Plus, 1.79 ERA and 3.56 xFIP. Expect some regression. He's 34 and signed a 3 year deal with no track record of starting.
  6. When did he function as the closer in 21?
  7. There is no true north with this guy. He's the reason the Sox have been scattershot ever since 2004 (post WS selloff of players, build up of homegrown players, feeding the monster, dumping players, threading the needle for 2013, building up homegrown players again, buying and trading to get 2018 team, overextending after 2018, dumping of all veteran players, build up of homegrown players yet again).
  8. I don't have a problem with the flatness or heat. The love the ecology of FL. The state government and most of the people that live here or come down in the winter suck balls.
  9. SoFL has had record heat the past few days. Dewpoint has been in the 80's as well. And it's only Summer Jr. The real s*** hasn't even started yet.
  10. Sale has a whopping 3M CBT hit for the Braves this year.
  11. Bello, Whitlock and Pivetta all missed time. Having a guy like Montgomery who takes the ball everyday is a great value to a team.
  12. The Whitlock extension was before they broke him in the rotation.
  13. We only extend players that are getting ready to s*** the bed like Whitlock, Rafaela and Bello.
  14. @tylermilliken_ Zach Penrod continues to SHOVE in Portland. 6 Starts - 30 IP 2.10 ERA/2.95 FIP 13.2 K/9 (44 K) 3.6 BB/9 (12 BB) 0.9 HR/9 (3 HR) .171 BAA 1.00 WHIP 10 Ks in back to back starts. Even if he isn’t a starter, his stuff from the left side will play in relief. I had mentioned a comp to Andrew Miller previously. I don't think he has the ceiling of Andrew Miller at his height, but the profile is similar. Should get called up to WOO IMO.
  15. Betts and Sale trades are more similar than the careers of Williams and O'Leary.
  16. People just don't post like they used to anymore.
  17. Henry is at fault for who he hires and how much he allots to payroll. They cheapened out this winter and picked Giolito over Montgomery. Montgomery can provide innings and has been decent except for one start against the Dodgers this season. Seems like they could have signed him to a fairly decent medium length deal. Would be helpful since the rest of the rotation is the walking wounded.
  18. So about as close as Teddy Ballgame and Troy O'Leary, right?
  19. I'm great at arguing on here, but even better at walking away.
  20. @brendan_camp Zach Penrod was named Eastern League Pitcher of the Week for the week of May 13-19.
  21. A big difference which moon and notin are confusing IMO.
  22. I said the deal was Betts-lite. That doesn't mean it's a one for one correlation. Sale was on a HOF track before the injuries. He was Chris Freakin' Sale! I know you just want to argue about everything, but c'mon.........
