  1. Bloom would always have a weird hole or two in the roster. At least I don't see that this year? I know the rotation could be better, but that's been the case for a while. This year there isn't a gaping hole at SS or CF or 1B or wherever that we've seen recently.
  2. They'd have to acquire good starting pitchers first. I haven't seen them attempt to do that. Seems like they are just thinking of clearing out two guys that won't be here next season and one guy who was overrated in '22. Sox have a ton of bullpen depth because that is all they are able to develop.
  3. As his performance only gets worse?
  4. Yeah, Sox spending more on the 2023 team than the 2004 proves they care more than they ever did before!!!!!! Seriously, the Sox being the 2nd highest payroll in '04 was MEANINGLESS. It was more important that they were the 13th highest payroll in '23!!!!!!!!!!! You can't complain they aren't spending!!!!!!!!
  5. Yes. He became a top prospect. He struggled with a few injuries. He's as much of a hit as Houck IMO. https://www.southsidesox.com/2023/11/6/23941670/chicago-white-sox-what-went-wrong-2023-michael-kopech
  6. People on here complain about ticket prices all the time. Fisher did a BOGO for Opening Day!!!!!
  7. Moving Schrieber certainly wouldn’t be about finances. Considering offers on him (or Martin, to a lesser extent) seems more of a broad openness by chief baseball officer Craig Breslow and the front office to consider opportunities that could balance the roster. Boston is still looking for right-handed hitting outfield help and could use additional certainty out of the rotation. I guess just fix the roster later then?
  8. Do you have to be paid like a franchise player to be the most important part of the franchise? All of the Sox' plans are on hold until Mayer et al show up. Seems like he's more important than the big dog.
  9. @IanMBrowne Jarren Duran has gone blonde. That is the big news so far this morning. Always getting to the important news. Asking follow up questions like "why did Mookie say no 300M offer was made" aren't allowed.
  10. Marcelo Mayer?
  11. Wouldn't you listen to offers on EVERYONE if you're not competing this year? Is Schreiber untouchable for some reason?
  12. Should have sold Schreiber at the obvious height of his value in '22.
  13. Less than last year.
  14. vasectomy vivisection vegetative
  15. Adjusting to playing slow pitch is brutal. Some dudes have a natural loftier swing for that, not me.
  16. Inshallah. Then the A's can move to Fenway.
  17. I don't know how effective a boycott would be. I think Henry is so checked out and the Sox will still make enough to get by. They probably trimmed payroll because they anticipated a drop in revenue this year no matter what.
  18. Yeah, you don't hit on every pick. He was also drafted for his athleticism, not his pitching which was dumb.
  19. Sign stealers have actually caused death on the field. That has never happened with a spitball.
  20. Would have to take out Whitey Ford, Don Sutton and Don Drysdale too.
  21. "Look, Cora is leaving. Payroll is going down. The guys we have now are basically what will be the Opening Day squad unless I can trade some away. We're in a holding pattern until the young guys get promoted in the next 2-3 years. I hope to hell that Bailey can fix these pitchers or it's going to be ugly."
  22. I need to keep everyone else laughing too.
  23. Should have foreclosed on the whole operation and given the stadium directly to the public.
  24. Our sweet This Week In Baseball prince!
  25. I hope we will have a bountiful harvest next fall just like in North Korea.
