  1. I would guess that Monty gave up on the 7 years a while ago...
  2. Most players are flawed, for the ones that aren't the flaw is the price tag. And how do we know exactly what they were expecting?
  3. We should all doubt that with every fiber of our beings...
  4. Crag has been assured he has a longer leash than his predecessors, no doubt...
  5. Would anyone really be shocked if there's some collusion going on? If owners have collectively decided to put the brakes on?
  6. What the Sox are doing seems more like the Dead Man's Float...
  7. Personally I'm hating all these contracts with one year opt-outs. The opt-outs are becoming the story.
  8. It's one offseason.
  9. Yeah, but all 4 of his big clients getting stiffed like this has to make you wonder. I'm no Boras fan but it wouldn't surprise me if there was a back room agreement among the owners. I suspect the same about Bauer, Urias and Clevinger not getting signed.
  10. Something was up with the Boras client freeze-out.
  11. Our big upgrade is Andrew Bailey.
  12. Income taxes, that is. There are plenty of other taxes, though.
  13. Vegas has them at 77.5, so that 78th win would definitely be a biggie for a lot of people.
  14. It's a trend now though. AL East is historically strong, or something like that.
  15. It sort of feels like this team is set up to replicate 2023. Get off to a good start and ultimately collapse as the rotation breaks down.
  16. Because I have a numbers fetish I have an awful hunch they're going to pull off a three-peat of 78's.
  17. Those are pretty solid.
  18. You have said that repeatedly, but I don't think anyone has ever agreed with you.
  19. And they did sign an innings eater, but he won't throw a pitch for us this year, so they might want to think about signing another innings eater to take his place...
  20. The team that's most desirable is usually the one that offers the most money.
  21. And in spite of this a lot of people seem to be buying into the idea that you have to be "ready" to take a run at a championship, and totally overlooking the massive crapshoot factor of the last few seasons. Teams winning less than 90 in the WS while the Dodgers win 100+ and watch the Series on TV.
  22. Here is a crazy but true statement: The teams that met in the 2023 World Series are both under .500 over the last two regular seasons combined...
  23. To me that's self-fulfilling prophecy stuff. "There's no point trying to get better because we still won't be good enough." Projections still have us around 80 wins, I think.
