  1. These sort of signing have been such a blight. In theory, signing one guy for $100M x 5 should work better than... $39M/2 Giolito $19M/2 Sandoval $10M/1 Richards $10M/1 Kluber $10M/1 Paxton $10M/2 Hendriks
  2. As bad as the AL looked before the year even started, if you felt the Sox improved, 90 wins did not seem so absurd. Oh what 6-7 weeks can do!
  3. Pre 2024, I used to say I'll take 9 last place finishes for just one ring.
  4. Today: MIN at BOS (Tolle v Prielipp) TBR @ NYY Saturday: MIN (??? Bello, Bennett, Pen Game???) Sunday: MIN (Gray) OFF Monday Tuesday: ATL@ BOS (Suarez) Wednesday: ATL@ BOS (Early) Thursday: ATL@ BOS (Tolle) Friday>> BOS @ CLE (Gray, ____, Suarez...)
  5. With Bello, we only added 1 year of control. With Anthony, KC & Rafaela I think it was 3 more with options.
  6. The mighty Jays won, again. They have one batter over .749. We thought our offense needed a big bat.
  7. I think Cole starts for the Yanks, tomorrow.
  8. I always loved the smell of primo weed. I don't crave or miss the buzz. The weed these days is so potent, it sometimes makes me feel jittery. Going so long between toking makes the effects more intense, so I try to not overdo it.
  9. I think Paredes, without giving up any useful MLB talent would be enough to get us to the dance, but not as a top favorite. This could be the year, anything goes once the dance begins.
  10. Has he really been worse than our 13th pitcher over the last 2 years?
  11. Could be right. He's done okay in this small sample size this year. Our next option is Bennett, unless Crochet comes back sooner than we think. With our pen so precarious, we can't afford too many more "pen games." I've given up on Crawford & Sandoval.
  12. The team ERA- is 97 for SP'ing only. That ranks 6th. Imagine with no Bello. (Imagine no Bello & Crochet numbers)
  13. While Kelly's ERA has been 1.64 in his last 10 IP, he has allowed 10 hits & 6 BBs (3.02 FIP.) I thought he was doing okay. He will likely be back.
  14. If our top 4 remain near this, anything Crochet gives us near average will keep us way above everyone else. Move Bello to the pen, and pray for no more SP'er injuries.
  15. None. I had quit for a week or month a few times over the years. I had scaled back for a while, so it wasn't cold turkey. I never felt any physical symptoms every time I quit. It was more mental and yearning. It had become a daily routine, and routines are usually tough to break free from. I don't really miss it, but when I spell someone smoking some primo, I do feel like a wanna toke. When I go back to Maine every summer, I usually partake a night here or there. Once or twice a year is it, now.
  16. POR won 1-0, and the big news was they K'd the opps 20 times! Wehunt went 5 IP, 4H with 11 Ks and 1 BB. Halligan fanned 6 in 2IP and Adams 3 in 2IP. This after Bennett K'd 11 in 5 IP. yesterday for a record. Alcantara went 3 for 4. The team had just 4 hits. Woo scored 4 in the first and lost 9-4, despite walking 7 times. Other games were rained out or in a rain delay.
  17. This is why the theory of building up your farm and trying to keep the better looking ones under team control into prime makes sense.
  18. Here is my ETAs: This weekend: Coulombe July 1st: Crochet July 15: Anthony, Romy & Oviedo August 1st: Crawford 2027: Story & Houck Will never play a game for the Sox: Sandoval
  19. We have no idea if the Brewers won the Priester trade. Quinn has been on the IL all year. The return: YRod .897 OPS (10 Hrs in 33 games) Holobetz 4.83 ERA, but a bad 2 game stretch of 10 IP and 11 ERs killed his stats. Phillips not off to a great start Harrison is off to a good start, but he's only gone 46 IP. The return has not looked good, so far: Durbin doing horrifically Monasterio .682 w BOS Seigler: .820 in AAA
  20. I'm surprised the record is just 11 Ks. I'm more surprised Bennett did it in just 5 IP.
  21. American League Only SP'er ERA- Rankings 69 Qualified 5. Tolle 48 6. Suarez 56 14. Gray 68 21. Early 77 63. Crochet 146 69. Bello 225
