This is like the Paxton signing, now- just double the money.
-
No. Suddenly we take the best offers, even if we don't like them. If we think waiting until the deadline will bring more, fine. Jansen has to prove he's healthy, first. I think there is a waiting period on FA signings like O'Neill.
-
I still think there will be enough interesting things to watch with the Sox, even if a lot of losing makes it difficult to enjoy. We have a lot of young players looking to prove they deserve to stay or if they can get even better than they have shown, before. We have some tweener guys being given a shot at the rotation, and maybe we find out, once and for all, where they belong. Our offense should be fun to watch. Our defense should not be as frightful as 2023. Our chances at making the playoffs went from slim to miniscule.
-
No, but when you are clinging to slight hopes, to begin with, something like this dashes those.
-
Agreed. He'd also had a very nice stretch beforehand. This really sucks. We needed Gio to be the first half Gio or the one from a couple years ago. We needed more to go right, as well, but Gio was a major "IF."
-
My spring optimism has gone in the gutter.
-
It should have tipped off the medical staff to do an in depth study of his arm and shoulder.
-
Pivetta Jansen Martin O'Neill (deadline) McGuire (if Teel is ready) Anyone else not part of the 2025 or 2026 plans. We can get something for thse guys.
-
Not my cup of tea.
-
This thread will be the top thread of the 2024 season.
-
At his point, just total punt. Fire sale ASAP.
-
and even Brasier.
-
I'm not sure how easy it would be to dig up the numbers- like what are the numbers of the top 30 fWAR pitchers vs the Sox, then 31-60, 61-90, 91-120, 121-150.
-
Why do we keep adding people that are clearly high?
-
He said depth, not our #1/2 slot SP'er. Last season, we started the year with Whitlock, Paxton, Bello, Joely & MIlls on the IL. Kelly joined them. Let's say this was our all healthy 13 in 2023, on opening day, and the depth: 13: Kluber, Sale, Paxton, Bello, Pivetta Jansen, Martin, Whitlock, Houck, Crawford, Schreiber, Bleier, Brasier Depth (as seen on opening day): Winckowski, Joely, Ort, Murphy, Walter, Jacques, Llovera, Garza, Sherriff (Bernardino, Weiss, Dermody, Bearclaw, Robertson & otherswere added mid season) That is awful pitching depth. This year's "all healthy" 13: Giolito, Bello, Pivetta, Crawford, Houck Jansen, Martin, Whitlock, Winckowski, Bernardino, Hendriks, Slaten (Rule 5 limited), Mata (out of options) Depth: Murphy, Criswell, Fitts, Walter, Gambrell (Wikelman?) Campbell, Weissert, Joely, Kelly, Luetge, Guerrero, Hagenman, Politi, German, Song, Jacques, Booser This may not look grat, but it looks like a significant improvement over last year.
-
Hendriks will surely be added to the 60 day IL, at some point, so one slot will open there. Hopefully for Monty, Clevinger or at least Lauer, but even if not, it won't be for Sogard. Also, by the end of ST'ing Sogard might be at a .650 OPS and forgotten.
-
With no evidence to back this up, it seemed like we also held our own vs the best SP'ers and did poorer than expected v unknown or 4/5 slot pitchers.
-
I hope so. We should be able to beat OAK and LAA, anywhere. If we are going to do anything, this year, winning games like these should be expected. We have had a good west coast trip, in the last few years, and several so-so ones. 2023 4-5 v SDP, LAA & AZ (0-3 v LAA) 1-2 v OAK after playing at CWS 3-3 v SEA & SFG (I can't remember west coast trips ever being divided into 3, before, but playing SFG, SDP & AZ is not common.) 2022 8-2 v OAK (3-0), LAA (won first 3 then lost 4th), 2-1 v SEA (including a heartbreaking 7-6 loss as Robles blew the 9th inning save.) 2021 3-3 v OAK & LAA 2-1 v SEA after playing at CWS We opened the 2019 season on an 11 game western trip: 3-8 1-3 @ SEA 1-3 @ OAK 1-2 @ AZ And the rest was history.
-
There are others in the system and in MLB that need less "fixing."
-
He should be #1 on the DFA list, but we often get this wrong. I'd add 5-10 others before I add Sogard, and that's not even including picking up someone cut from another team or signing a FA.
-
Just cut the cord.
-
Rafaela with a dinger in the 2-1 loss, today. Wink with the start: 2.2 IP 2 H 1 ER 0 BB 2 K Jacques let up the winning run. Hopefully we never see him, this season. Campbell 1.1 IP, 0H, 0ER, 0BB, 1K Hagenman 1.1, 0, 0, 1, 1 Joely 1.0, 1, 0, 0, 1 Politi 1.0, 0, 0, 2, 1

RIP U.L. Washington.

Yes, one is the Carolina Confederates & the other is the California Homeless Hobos.
-
Sonny Gray to get an MRI. BorA$$ says new teams have reached out on Snell & Monty, since ST'ing began.
