  1. I’m just saying that Team Italy roster looks more American than apple pie and obesity. Clearly being from Italy or ever visiting Italy or even visiting New York’s Little Italy was not a requirement. Now I don’t care about player origins, but I do think to represent the country of Italy, you clearly only had to meet one of the following: 1. Familial history tracing back to Italy in a minimum of the last 500 years. Or more. 2. Last name ending in a vowel. 3. The ability to find Italy on a map. Or, just find a map. 4. Ever eaten spaghetti or similar. And yes, they are willing to accept the space age polymers from Chef Boy-Ar-Dee. Reluctantly. 5. Sign up to play for Italy.
  2. So are your pulse snd blood pressure. But if they get to 0, it will be a whole new level of unexpected peace…
  3. We’re not out. Team Italy is basically the JV Team USA…
  4. Maybe. But… Danny Coulombe? How is he still unsigned? Does he want 8 years or something?
  5. The clock doesn’t start, but they can be added to free up the roster spot. Braiden award might be worth adding just so he can be a 27th man for double headers…,
  6. A lot of folks did and insisted he had already proven he was back, better than ever , and still 27 years old…
  7. They would have to DFA someone. Cheng is very redundant at this point, and Gasper is an older, lesser, switch-hitting Siegler. The Sox probably need to add bullpen deoth (Coulombe?), so maybe DFA them both?
  8. And this year’s winner of The Pedro Ciriaco Award, formerly known as The Jeff Bailey Award..
  9. Honestly, I pass. Although that could change depending on the deal. His contract is certainly cheap, but for multiple years, Greene is beyond unreliable. He might be the most talented pitcher in MLB, but I doubt he is ever on the field enough to prove it…
  10. It’s so much more. It’s now a racist truck stop where Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield both flopped before becoming stars. Your day is coming, Young Bryce Young…
  11. They did need pitching. And all of those deals were just one year. Would you prefer another David Price contract? Or Chris Sale contract? Even Eovaldi was kind of iffy on his 4 year deal. Given how these longer contracts for SP were all mediocre to awful, is it really surprising they tried another strategy?
  12. So explain why Buehler was clearly a horrible risk after 3 injury-plagued years but Chris Sale wasn’t after 3 injury-plagued years. Even Garrett Richards was successful until that mid-season ban on whatever sticky stuff he was using to achieve the elite spin rate he was signed for. And Kluber was a 3 WAR pitcher the year before. If only the Sox FO would use hindsight more often…
  13. If only the Sox FO would use a Time Machine to judge how these players are going to do before signing them to short term deals. So stubborn, huh?
  14. You don’t think Buehler was a high upside guy?
  15. Not even opening day and doubling back already?
  16. Actually that’s Carolina’s claim to fame now…
  17. I always assumed it was because you couldn’t handle the fast-paced action in the hardcore world of notary publicking…
  18. That works. And the English won’t be necesssary for my hacke…. Err.. software personnel.. How is her Russian?
  19. Clearly not into good ones, since I thought I was making one with my post…
  20. You also don’t have an interpreter. By the way, where did you say these accounts were again? 😉
  21. The best part of that scandal was Michael Che’s joke on SNL “Shohei Ohtani’s translator was arrested in connection with sports betting. When reached for comment, Ohtani said …. something in Japanese.”
  22. Having seen Zack Wilson play QB, I can tell you that you’re not the first to attach a question mark to his name…
  23. Ok. We get your point that the competition in the WBC isnt the same as MLB, but Yoshida is outhitting most of Team USA in the tournament so far and those guys are facing that same inferior pitching…
