  1. You seem really hung up On how Casas hurt himself. You hated us trading Sale who hurt himself riding a bike. Am I missing something?
  2. 1. I wasn’t saying I wanted to trade DHam, but why would trading DHam plus Meidroth bring back a worse SS?
  3. Of course. We may still see Grissom, instead.
  4. At some point??? Criswell> Horn Grissom> Romy G Casas> Smith Hendriks > Anderson Mata is out of options> DFA or trade or replace a new IL pitcher?
  5. No pitcher can return to the mound once removed or moved to another position.
  6. Bad teams beat good teams often enough, but there are some teams that are loaded with Bobby Dalbec and Chase Anderson types. I think the AAAA term fits, sometimes but may be overused/misuded, at times. Every season has examples of series lost that should have been won and surprise sweeps or series wins, by teams that suck. We are playing well, and the sample size is growing to a point where we might be able to begin to think this is not a fluke. Of course, a lot can happen. While I was worried about having to face the Astros after tge opened h the he season sucking, we now APPEAR to be facing the Yanks while they look to be struggling. Usually, these things tend to even out, but sometimes it seems they don’t.
  7. No pitchers have broken out?
  8. The Bailey hire, alone, cannot make Brez “awful.” Then, there is Slateb, O’Niell, Weissert w Fitts, Criswell, Romy and others. I will say, like Bloom, his bigger deals look the worst, so far: Gio and Sale>Grissom.
  9. The Sale trade looking bad after a half season should not make any GM bad. Was he supposed to know Sale was going to be great at age 35 and Grissom would be out most of the time and suck the rest of the time? Was he supposed to know Gio would get hurt?
  10. Bloom selected him in minor league rule 5 in’23.
  11. Could very well be, but I’m enjoying this season, regardless! I was liking a lot of what I was seeing while we were fluttering around .500 for weeks and weeks. We have several exciting players and some surprises. We’ve had some let downs and key injuries, but to me, the good has outweighed the bad, especially the last few weeks.
  12. For an off season with budget cutting and just one major trade, here is a look at Brez’s additions to the team and farm: (Note, nota complete list) O’Neill Slaten Criswell Weissert Romy G Anderson & Keller I Campbell Booser, Horn & Uwasawa Smith & Cooper (gone) Westbrook Grissom Hendriks Giolito & Fulmer 7. Fitts 9. Sandlin Judi r
  13. Two teams are needed for every trade, and one team might want to wait it out for a desperate team to offer more.
  14. Lugo and Arias might earn honourable mention, for position player break out half seasons. Who ate your pitcher break outs? Perales, Penrose and Early?
  15. The “other prospect” with DHam in the JBJ for Renfroe trade. With the one year additions of Duvall then O’Neill, losing Renfroe seems diminished over time. Of course the JBJ addition, errr I mean subtraction hurt that season and the budget, but DHam is helping right a trade that looked god-awful just months ago. The Beni for Wink trade looks better, now, too.
  16. Sox are 4 down in the loss column to the Yanks, now. Thanks, Cincy! With some games still pending, the Sox are currently 9th in win% in all of MLB. Is it okay to have fun watching these Sox, now?
  17. A strong Pivetta would make a huge difference for the Sox going forward. The Sox record when he pitches, career: 48-46
  18. Sweet win, although made harder than it should have been. In recent years, we lost most games like these. Keep it rolling!
  19. Valdez has played much better after the call up. It’s a tough call. BTW, happy 4th to all!
  20. I have noticed that, along with more runners going for it.
  21. In theory, Hamilton plus Meidroth would bring back a better SS than what each of those two alone are worth.
  22. We’ve seen enough high picks fail for me to disagree, some. Good points, though.
  23. That was understood. Perhaps, even if he looks healthy, the injury risk is prohibative. I’m not seeing many great options for pitchers that can help but not cost a too 8-9 prospect.
  24. Dean threw no hit ball in his 5 IP, 2 BB and 1 ER.
  25. Alvarez went 5-5 and Kavadas 3-4 in the Woo loss. Booster got shelled. KCampell went 3-4 and Binelas hit a granny in the POR win.
