    The rotation has given up at least one run in the first inning in 5 of the last 6 games. Maybe it's time to embrace the "opener" strategy...

    They can’t keep trotting Price out there, can they? He’s looking like the more expensive pitching version of Carl Crawford...

    Oscar Tavares (#3) Tyler Skaggs (#7) Jose Fernandez (#8)

    Having Betts means having how much to spend on pitching?
  6. notin
    No. He doesn’t. He might get one by default because the Sox have 5 other pitchers who also don’t deserve to start...

    So I’m looking back at some old prospects lists. First one I looks st is the 2013 Fangraphs list, because I don’t have/want a Baseball America subscription. Creepy list. Only 6 years old and three of the top eight prospects are dead!!

    It’s not easy to walk Chavis

    Tying run at the plate?

    Bye bye JA

    That’s what I was thinking. Now if Benintendi homers...

    My hopes for the 2020 Sox: Hembree - non-tender Bradley - non-tender Wright - non-tender Granted Free Agency Porcello Moreland Pearce Sandoval (in absentia) Cashner Weber Smith Curletta Trades Betts (no other way to rebuild the staff quickly) Price Dalbec

    Keep Weber. Cut Price

    I’m f***ing appalled. I am very much hoping Dombrowski gets fired...

    And Sox fans actually don’t. The Sox weren’t expected by many to make the postseason last year. 2013 came out of nowhere. And really, 2007 felt awesome because many of us thought 2004 would be the only one would ever see...

    Not his defense? His offense will only be missed for a few weeks a year...

    Hitting against Sox pitching is never an accomplishment...

    Gonna miss Bradley’s defense...

    Pffffft I think that’s about what John Wall makes for every game he misses with a gimpy knee...

    Eovaldi?

    I don’t think Dombrowski is at fault for the poor performances of the players. But I do think he is absolutely culpable for his complete inactivity this offseason and especially during this season. He has been and still is the proverbial Nero fiddling as Rome burns...

    Sure in your Wet Pinstripe Dreams. But it’s possible the spending and deals bring the cliff in. Remember the Yankee farm was pretty bland before dealing two relief pitchers. The Sox can do better by dealing one MVP...

    I give more credence to second wild card teams than some of these division winners. The 2006 Cardinals went 83-78, but made the postseason solely because the rest of the NL Central couldn’t even win 83 games. The Cardinals won on the basis of having similar geography to a bunch of shittier teams. They also got lucky in October and won the WS. But because they were the least incompetent team out of 6 (yes, 6 back then) in the NL Central, they were a legitimate postseason team? The Phillies, White Sox, Angels, Blue Jays and Red Sox all won more games than the Cardinals (while playing in divisions with better teams) and missed the playoffs...

    Well, this team has been built on starting pitching. And the Sox paid premium prices to add Price and retain Sale. But the Manfred Missile has helped weaken a dependency on starting pitching. Most teams, through economics largely, gravitated towards bullpen games. This did somewhat combat the effects of the ball, since starters rarely saw hitters a third time on other teams...

    What about Johnson and Hembree?
