    If Sale had gotten hammered again, I’d be more concerned. Even without the velocity, this was an encouraging game for Sale. Some nights, for whatever reason, pitchers just don’t have it. But Sale showed is he can be effective even without his best weapon. Not every pitcher can do that...

    They re-signed Gardner to take his at bats. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Yankee fascination with Harper died the day they acquired Stanton. How many $300mill corner outfielders can any team handle?

    That he also sucks at hockey and probably can’t even skate might also be factors here...

    Is AAA even a necessary developmental step anymore? The International League is filled with players signed on minor league deals and 40 man roster overspill. The average age is like 28. It’s ok for a player to go there, but I don’t think it’s necessary...

    I don’t even see signatures on these posts. Where are they? Or did I make some setting that blocks them?

    How did you expect the Tigers and Orioles to be? The Mariners and A’s were the two teams that started the season early in Japan. As Cora made very little effort to get the Sox regulars going in ST, we might be looking at preparedness issues with the Sox. None of the Sox SP threw even 10 IP in ST. I think the price is being paid a little for that. There were positives to that approach. For example none of the Sox starters got injured in those games. But I can see it contributing to a slow start...

    Despite the Sox slow start against two teams that ramped up to start the season early, they’re still only one game behind the other AL East playoff “given”, who have been struggling against two of the consensus worst teams in the American League...

    Unless it was a risk aversion strategy. Maybe DD thought Betts would be too difficult, so the idea of saving budget for him by letting Sale and Bogaerts walk was a bad idea that might have left him with nothing. Two birds in the hand...

    Well let’s start with my hypothetical. It might be a bit much for them to give up, but would you trade Betts for Corey Seager, Julio Urias, and Alex Verdugo? Now typically these superstar trades involve prospects, but that’s because teams trading them are budget—conscious. Boston isn’t...

    The good news for Betts is very few teams have a history of giving out huge contracts like the Red Sox, and even fewer GMs have a history of giving out mega contracts that rivals Dombrowski’s...

    So do people choose to believe the Yale graduate or the two drug-addled ex-cons?

    Hall’s case was insane. The Red Sox used to have an infielder named Julio Valdez who was arrested for statutory rape in the middle of a game, but evidently the grand jury found insufficient evidence to proceed and Valdez continued his career for a coupe more seasons. It was possibly all made up. But Hall was a serial predator...

    Higher than what Mallex Smith’s will be this year once my waiver claim goes through. You have no idea the devastating effects of being on my fantasy team. Now behave. Or Marco Gonzalez is next...

    It was a complaint of mine for most of the off-season. That and prioritizing Pearce over the bullpen. The list has expanded a little, but I’ve been beating this drum for weeks...

    At the very least, are you in agreement it seemed silly that pitchers like Bud Norris, Alex Wilson, Nick Vincent, Tyler Clippard, and Matt Bush went for minor league deals, while the Sox passed on all in favor of Brian Ellington and Dan Runzler?
