  1. And my argument is that Mona should keep starting at SS until his bat goes away. Therefore, Arias would get more playing time in WOO over the next 10 games or more! 😎
  2. Since July 1, they are 5th in runs scored. Seems like they needed to score runs to win. If they kept scoring runs at the previous pace, they'd still be below .500 regardless of pythagorus.
  3. We gave up what for an injured guy coming off two weak seasons??? Damn. You guys weren't talking about him like this when they traded for him. You only talk about him like this when it comes to JH's money? 🤔
  4. I believe there are many other options for your entertainment now than back then. If you get out of the habit of going to games or watching on tv, you'll get into the habit of doing something else. It won't affect diehards, but most fans aren't diehards.
  5. If the Sox are serious about winning, once Mona's bat goes away, they should call up Arias. Have him hit 9th. Tell him to just put the ball in play and provide good defense. He's better than Cheng and is the long term replacement at SS. Why wait if you truly believe all players at AAA are ready to be called up? He's not seen as a franchise savior. He doesn't have that burden. It'd be showing up at the right time TBH.
  6. He went undrafted after breaking a bone in his hand at the end of his senior season. While rehabbing, he hurt his knee and had his third surgery on his right knee and realized it was the end of the line. He announced his retirement from baseball in May 2025.
  7. Like I said last season, his career is most likely over. It was fun for a little while anyway.
  8. They took an attendance hit after the last work stoppage in '94. Attendance didn't fully recover for about a decade. If they missed an ENTIRE season rather than just the last third??? YUCK! I really don't see them missing a full season. I think the Opening Day will be before the middle of May at the latest.
  9. If his injuries are that bad currently, aren't you worried about the here and now? 🤔
  10. Maybe, but that's gotta be less than 10% likelihood IMO. Right now, there's just a lot of bluster from ownership. Losing baseball for a full year would irreparably harm the brand.
  11. He's not making that much in his arb years. Sox could go 6/180 to buy off the last arb year. It's up to the Sox. Adley's agent has extended his clients before.
  12. Well, I've felt the same way about Story going back to the end of last season.
  13. It's simply to give Abreu a break. Nobody else on this ballclub can give him a day off.
  14. If they don't extend him, then they better get to the WS either this year or next.
  15. Work stoppage is December 1. Not a lot of time to get a deal done if they have a decent playoff run.
  16. Story: 2025 -7 DRS, -9 OAA 2026 -2 DRS, -3 OAA I don't want either as my long term solution, but I think I'd prefer Mona until a better option is called up.
  17. The SeaDogs broadcast is pretty good. If they ever did a broadcast that was Emma and Lou, it would be enjoyable. I didn't watch the broadcast last night, but a lot of the complaints I heard were more towards Alanna Rizzo who isn't a broadcaster. She does Unobsrtucted Views and that has a much different vibe to it. That may be why some of the presentation could have been clunky TBH.
  18. I don't think Monasterio's defense is that much worse than Story's at this point and he has a better k rate and whiff rate. I think that works more for what this team is trying to do.
  19. I want to be over the moon with the Adley trade, but a part of me is worried that the other shoe will fall. JH won't up the money to keep him around (we've seen that play out before) and the prospects given up come back around to bite us. If I had faith that JH would always do the right thing, I wouldn't put much care towards "but what about the prospects" TBH.
  20. I think the whole org was down on Mayer (health and effort).
  21. I'm not necessarily worried about a Rule 5 crunch (since a Rule 5 draft is not likely to happen this year due to a lockout), but any moves would mean another person needs to be taken off the 40 man. It's not a big deal. There are a ton of guys that could go at this point. I just think it'd be smart to be a little more proactive this time around and get rid of some of the trainer's room fixtures. This is probably a better discussion for later in the year anyway.
