    Yes, and this is why we may be able to sneak in to the playoffs, without looking great.
  2. moonslav59
    The context of "okay" was that we'd be in the playoff hunt, but not a cinch.

    I don't disagree, and I'm as frustrated, pissed and perplexed as everyone else. Maybe some sort of shock to the system is needed. It is well documented how nearly all of us wished we had done more over the winter. Most of us spoke to the lack of offense added. That being said, I thought we got slightly better on paper, but that has not shown itself to be true, so far. My hopes are not as high as they were before game 1 (or 2,) but I am not ready to call this team out of it or hopeless.

    Name one time in human history, any 2-8 team looked like they had "life" in them. Of course they look terrible, lifeless and worse. They are 2 and 8. I'm not trying to predict some great surge, but the fact is we are 3.5 games behind looking okay. Cue: "But if we keep playing like this, we have no hope." Well, duh.

    So, does this mean you have thrown in the towel? Cause it ain't over till you say it is.

    Not writing them off, not the Sox. Thanks for letting me know they are not Sox players.

    10 games into the season and 3 games behind the last playoff slot. 152 to go!

    It ain't over till Ole Red sings it.
  9. moonslav59
    What a horrible display of I don't even know what to call it.
  10. moonslav59
    Tell me which ones are wrong...
  11. moonslav59
    How long does Story stay 5th? Then again, who deserves to move up? (Maybe Mayer, but Abreu is a LHB.)
  12. moonslav59
    I disagree. I see half or more trades as plus, many as "meh" and a quite a few bad ones, too... some more in hindsight.
  13. moonslav59
    Story batting 5th, tonight. (Masa 2nd, Willson 3rd & Abreu 4th)
  14. moonslav59
    1. Anthony LF 2. Yoshida DH (NO STORY #2!!!!) 3. Contreras 1B (Moved from 4 to 3) 4. Abreu RF (Moved up to 4th) 5. Story SS 6. Mayer 2B 7. Durbin 3B 8. Narvaez C 9. Rafaela CF
  15. moonslav59
    Devers was a salary/malcontent dump. The return was similar to the Carl Crawford dump. Tibbs was not the "prize," IMO. It was Harrison, who was flipped for Durbin. (Not that that is anything wonderful.)

    He did have a pretty long stretch of consistency in 2025. We need one, now. In 2025, he had a 641 FIP after 2 games, then he went 3.89 over 23 starts before ending with 5.07 over his last 3 starts, followed by an awful playoff game.
  17. moonslav59
    I'm not saying it will happen. I wouldn't bet on it, but I think both are liked. They can move people round and make room for Cora. Maybe the can one guy, somewhere.
  18. moonslav59
    Another "top prospect" traded... LOL.
  19. moonslav59
    I can see a set up where both Brez and Cora are part of the upper management team.
  20. moonslav59
    He "handles" them with kid gloves.
  21. moonslav59
    They might keep Breslow and just promote Cora to GM.

    It looks like soxprospects.com bounced #58 Patton from the top 60 to slot Paez #22. Adding Bastardo #21 and Paez #22 further unbalances the pitcher vs everyday player make up of the rankings. Pitcher rankings: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10 (7 of top 10) 13, 14, 19, 20, 21, 22 (13 of top 22) 24, 25, 26, 29, 31 (18 of top 31) 33, 36, 38, 42, 45, 46, 47, 49 (26 of 49) 55, 57, 58, 59, 60 (31 out of 60 looks balanced, but...)

    You mean promote him, not fire him?

    You were spot on. soxprospects.com slotted Paez right behind Bastardo at #22.
