  1. In what, the AL East? (LOL)
  2. I hear their looking for a Brazier burger chef at the Dairy Queen. Can someone get Ryan an application? Don't wait for the deadline. It's fire sale time. Get what you can and let's move on. I'm ready to start the "A Realistic Look at 2021: Part I."
  3. I'm coming up on 50 years being an avid Sox fan. Betts is the best I've seen. It's a shame he's not still here, but it is what it is. I'd have paid him what the Dodgers did, but it wasn't a slam dunk choice to do so. I hope bloom uses "that money" wisely. I think he will.
  4. I'm never for having the players tank, but we should trade everyone not part of the plans beyond 2020 or 2021.
  5. Has anyone seen a worse bottom of the 40 man roster on a Sox team? Half the roster is rotten or close to it. Pedey's on the 60 Day. Josh Taylor out on COVID Arauz (Rule 5) Chatham Barnes Walden Hembree Osich Weber Brewer Lin Wilson Aybar Godley Stock Brasier Shawaryn Mazza Brice Hall Valdez Covey Hart Springs
  6. It was always about 2021 and beyond (or it should have been).
  7. I'm building your funeral pyre.
  8. I'm not trading Devers, unless the return blows me away.
  9. You have to get lucky or give up a ton to get an AS pitcher or one that becomes one, later. The Pedro, Schilling and Beckett deals all brought us a ring, but counting on those type of trades, these days, is not easy. We will likely have to buy a pitcher via free agency in the next winter or two. Maybe, we can find a decent one via trade, and maybe Bloom can find a hidden gem.
  10. He's a plus defender, too, so that doesn't hurt.
  11. I had Chavis in nearly every trade values deal I submitted. I also had Walden and Duran in many as I felt their stock was too high.
  12. I see Chavis as a platoon player (1B-2B-DH and 3rd string 3B) I see Downs as out hope at 2B.
  13. Time to trade Mitch. Sell high!
  14. Here's my core to build around: Devers, Bogey & Verdugo Casas, Downs, Mata, Jimenez & Ward I'd keep Sale, because I think his upside is worth more than his trade value, right now. Everyone else is on the table. All 1-2 year control players could or should be traded for the best we can get, regardless of what it is. 2+ year controlled players should only be traded, if it makes us better with the "better" being more about 1-2 years from now and beyond and not good now.
  15. I agree. We need to save pennies for when we are close enough to top contention and then pounce on a good free agent or two (or three).
  16. I'd tack on some cash and trade JBJ & JD to maximize the return. Get what we can for Workman, Barnes & Hembree. Anything is better than nothing.
  17. The longer he stays, the less he is owed- the less risk another team takes on.
  18. Thanks, John. I hope you are our owner for the rest of my living days. Your brought victory and honor to our team!
  19. JD and JBJ are more tradeable, with some cash throw in. Hembree is cheaper and is certainly tradeable, right now. Pillar, Perez and Moreland have very little trade value. Barnes may have some value, but he may need to prove something, first.
  20. I'd move them all for the best we can get, even if it doesn't seem like enough. I'd even pay part of JD's salary to improve the return. I'd add Barnes to the list, but we'd probably have to pay someone to take him, at this point.
  21. Half game ahead of Pitt, who is 2-7. Trade JD. Trade Hembree. Trade JBJ. Trade Pillar. Bring up some kids. Go Sox in 2021!
  22. I wasn't expecting much, this season, but this is awful.
  23. Yes, too late. Hope he bounces back to being worth something before the deadline, but don'y hold your breath. I'd trade Hembree & JD before something bad happens.
