  1. I’m not expecting much offense from JBJ. But, hey, someone has to bat ninth…
  2. When the Sox signed Renfroe, I assumed he was going to platoon with Benintendi…
  3. I do think defense was a huge need for last year’s team. Not so sure a right handed bat in a lineup that already has at least 5 RHH as full time starters (E Hernandez, Bogaerts, Martinez, Vasquez, and Dalbec) is that big of a need.
  4. Sure, the Sox can sign Schwarber, assuming the off-season ever resumes…
  5. It might as it creates another place for Dalbec and/or Casas to play…
  6. You’re assuming Bloom doesn’t trade away JD Martinez once the lockout ends…
  7. Do they retire numbers based on talk show appearances and Miller Lite commercials over actual baseball?
  8. How did people forget Dave Henderson? It was his home run in the top of the inning that made Buckner’s error so meaningful…
  9. Well think of how much Yankee fans hated watching Boston trade away Tony Armas Jr…
  10. So instead they retired it for a lesser player that the owner fired multiple times?
  11. He also rounded third …. And ran all the way to New York!!
  12. The real curiosity is how O’Neill got his number retired and Hall of Famers Herb Pennock, Earle Combs and Joe Gordon don’t. Only Gordon spent less time on the Yankees than O’Neill, but that was because he missed two seasons to serve in Workd War II…
  13. Is there any reason to do this?
  14. Exactly. If Damon stayed, where was he going to play?
  15. Not to mention his pit stop in Toronto in between Boston and New York…
  16. True, but nothing was worse than seeing Dwight Evans in an Oriole uniform…
  17. Team hovered around .500 and kept finishing near (but never at) the bottom of the AL East, but we did see a brighter future coming up with young players like Hurst, Clemens and Boggs…
  18. By that logic, the Yankees will be retiring Luis Sojo’s number next. Make that numbers. He wore a few in the Bronx…
  19. Per BTV, that would cost the Sox Verdugo and Yorke, with enough room for Boston to still sweeten the pot a little. I like Verdugo, but I make that trade. It might be tough on the Guardians’ front office PR wise…
  20. And once both sides agree, it will be business as usual…
  21. The draft history on soxprospects.com is probably the best method, but it doesn’t cover any international free agent signings…
  22. The really dumb part of all this is almost immediately after spending weeks trying to limit spending and controlling player salaries and team payroll, and both sides finally agree, some team owner is going to approve a 10 year $350mill deal for Carlos Correa…
  23. Wasn’t that already shot down?
  24. You do seem to be spending more time targeting the players. I have no sympathy for either side, but comparing the MLB players’ jobs to that of Joe Lunch Pail is never going to lead to resolution, and probably not even to relevant commentary…
