  1. Henry has established he's not a big believer in 5 year plans for GMs.
  2. Grissom would be part of that equation.
  3. B and B must see something in him. Their judgment and methods are really gonna be put to the test over the next 6 months.
  4. Rodon, who got lit up today, is a huge factor for the Yanks, as is Nestor.
  5. Red Sox sign RHP Chase Anderson to major league deal. Cue the "We're saved!" posts.
  6. I do have some optimism that Breslow and Bailey are going to get good results out of Houck and Whitlock. Hopefully we find out once and for all what their best roles are.
  7. The jury is out on everything.
  8. That would be an awful way for a GM to think, wouldn't it?
  9. Sure, it's a no brainer once we know they're not really in on 2024. Like I say they've done a great job reducing our expectations. Now we'll be thrilled if they win 85 and finish 4th.
  10. They could have made it into a two-year deal just as the Braves did. When you have control over the player there are all kinds of things you can do besides let the contract expire...
  11. The Red Sox also had an option on Sale for 2025, so the comparison is really 2 years to 5 years.
  12. OK George Carlin.
  13. In terms of actual IQ, I'd say no. But the athletic life tends to keep a lot of them from advancing intellectually, let's say.
  14. I think if Jansen is traded it should be at the deadline. Sometimes a closer can be traded for a good haul at the deadline.
  15. English is a hilariously effed up language, it's not you.
  16. It's all our money, at source. Sam Kennedy says they're just "stewards". So it has to be true.
  17. Cooper Freakin' Criswell.
  18. "Pocketing" does have ambiguity because it refers to both putting it in and keeping it in. I'm trying for a clean semantic solution here. In vain, I realize, but such is life.
  19. Fans suck, basically, I agree. And if/when Sale gets injured, there will be plenty of knowing/gloating remarks about that too.
  20. Because of course he does.
  21. Fans sure don't have much patience for injured players.
  22. OK let's just amend to "keeping it".
  23. They have to keep starter lanes open for all of Houck, Whitlock and Criswell. No room for Montgomery, and Henry gets to pocket a bunch of money under the tax threshold.
  24. If it was Ohtani doing the gambling, how dumb would he have to be to keep making bank transfers to a bookie that as we can see, were easily identified as such.
  25. Frankly, the only thing that makes sense is that Ohtani was absolutely in the know about the money going to the bookie. And as seems to be the consensus, the best story for Ohtani was actually the first one, that he did it to bail out a friend, even if that story has some nasty legal consequences of its own. Between this and Yamamoto giving up 5 runs in an inning, that was one heck of a bad day for the Dodgers.
