  1. I have been considering taking a break from this site, as well. I'm sure that would please a few.
  2. Not a single soul in Sox Nation uttered those words.
  3. Arias found his power: 2 dingers and 3 hits. He's at 1.066. Holobetz found his groove, again, too. 6IP 5 Hits, 0 ER, 0BB, 6K
  4. Yes, Gio was healthy when we signed him, as was Kluber and Richards. I could have mentioned Wacha and Hill, but they did okay. My point was not just about signing injured or injury prone pitchers, of which Gio was neither, but also the shorter term, bargain basement types, instead of just investing in a 5 year deal.
  5. I thought Harrison was the highest value player in return for Devers, but they never really let him get a chance. My guess is we look back at this trade in 3-4 years and say, "Meh."
  6. 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
  7. 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!
  8. Pre 2024, I used to say I'll take 9 last place finishes for just one ring.
  9. 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...)
  10. With Bello, we only added 1 year of control. With Anthony, KC & Rafaela I think it was 3 more with options.
  11. The mighty Jays won, again. They have one batter over .749. We thought our offense needed a big bat.
  12. I think Cole starts for the Yanks, tomorrow.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. Has he really been worse than our 13th pitcher over the last 2 years?
  16. 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.
  17. The team ERA- is 97 for SP'ing only. That ranks 6th. Imagine with no Bello. (Imagine no Bello & Crochet numbers)
  18. 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.
