  1. And bring the Brewers back to the AL where they belong…
  2. So the Salt Lake City Choir owner is a cheap SOB, too?
  3. Ohhhhhh. See I thought he wanted to add one, but apparently we need to pare down to one…
  4. And either one team gets a day off every day. Or every day some team has to play two different teams…
  5. Let’s have five!! Reportedly Manfred is trying to work out some sort of revenue-sharing deal where all teams pool their TV money and it gets divided up among the league. I assume putting out proposals the wealthier owners will absolutely hate is an indication he plans to retire soon anyway…
  6. Four 8-teams divisions AL East - Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, Baltimore Orioles, Tampa Rays, Cleveland Guardians, Milwaukee Brewers, Detroit Tigers, Toronto Blue Jays AL West - Chicago White Sox, Kansas City Royals, Las Vegas Athletics, Seattle Mariners, Anaheim Dog s***, Texas Rangers, Minnnesota Twins, Salt Lake City Choir NL East - New York Mets, Philadelphia Phillies, Atlanta Braves, Miami Marlins, Pittsburgh Pirates, Washington Nationals, Cincinnati Reds, Charlotte Overdraft Fees. Electric Blueberry - Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres, San Francisco Giants, Chicago Cubs, St. Louis Cardinals, Arizona Diamondbacks, Colorado Rockies, Houston Astros…
  7. AL East should be Red Sox, Yankees, Orioles, Blue Jays, Guardians, Tigers, Brewers, and Rays. Like pre-Selig, but with Tampa!
  8. Maybe two years ago, when Hoerner was not in his option year…
  9. So why do folks think Boston has less of a postseason chance than KC or Texas? If the Sox weakness is offense, we think KC has a better solution? That team literally has one hitter…
  10. 14 teams? I love baseball but we cannot have the postseason running into Advent!
  11. 4 eight team divisions. (AL East, AL West, NL East, & Electric Blueberry) Each league sends two division winners plus 4 wild card teams to the postseason. Division winners get a first round bye. Done.
  12. MLB needs fewer divisions, not more. Do we really need more 82-80 teams making the postseason simply because the rest of the teams in their geographic area are even worse? Does MLB really want their version of the NFC South?
  13. Plus they would go well past Thanksgiving. How many of you Boston denizens really want to attend World Series games in at Fenway Park in December?
  14. Especially since the minors are bereft of power and loaded with pitching. 10 of the top 15 prospects on soxprospects are pitchers and the best power hitter above A-ball might be Mikey Romero…
  15. But MLB only expands when they lose a collusion lawsuit and need quick cash for the payment…
  16. His .986 OPS vs LHP was impressive but in only 93 PA, it could be tainted by facing a good amount of bad LHP. His .803 career vs LHP isn’t really “mashing” IMO. I take IKF and the versatility. Hes a good fielder no matter who is pitching…
  17. It’s not hard to compare them. I did it, and you read it. Andujar has one skill. And it’s not like he even excels at it..
  18. Is pitching in AAA really a necessary step anymore? It seems like AAA is more a place for minor league contracts and players 27-40…
  19. IKF is more versatile, can field multiple positions (Andujar can’t field anywhere), has a Gold Glove, and can be used as a pinch runner. IKF over Andujar all day…
  20. He had one good year in CF, but he’s shown us plenty of times he doesn’t belong there. I don’t think Ive ever seen an outfielder more out of place than he was on Raimel Tapia’s inside-the-park grand slam. I know that’s just one play, but it was about as extreme as it gets…
  21. Aka he who shall not be named…
  22. Schanuel was in the majors 2 months after being drafted. For a position player, thats almost unheard of. The only other player I can think of to reach MLB within 2 months of being drafted was Ryan Zimmerman. Relief pitchers do it all the time. But position players? Even the ones like Incaviglia that skip the minors entirely usually debut in April. (Ok Dave Winfield did debut in MLB within days of being drafted. But that was over 50 years ago.)
  23. Neto was a 13th overall pick. The only players the Sox drafted in that neighborhood since Mayer, they packaged up and shipped out for Garrett Crochet…
