  1. Last year the first 3 games out of the break were in LA. One game the Sox blew an 8th inning lead, one game they blew a 2 run lead in extra innings. (One of those 2 games ended on a Freeman walk off grand slam. I forget which one.) And then in the last game of that series, Kutter Crawford started his collapse, surrendering home runs to everyone in LA except Selma Hayek. Lets not repeat that…
  2. Well, what you are talking about with this “anemic offense” seems pretty unsupported beyond my comment. Were you referring to “only” scoring 14 runs in the 4 game Tampa series? Or the 29 runs in 3 games against Colorado? The 27 runs in 3 games against Washington? Or the mere 22 runs in 3 games against Cincinnati? Or were you using the phrase “of late” to mean something entirely different than is generally accepted?
  3. So 2 months of Josh Naylor would cost Campbell, Casas and another? But 5+ years of minimum wage Nick Kurtz can be had for Abreu, Jordan and an A ball shortstop?
  4. Unlike A-Rod, who can literally pull a kid out of the path of a speeding bus, and then instead of accolades is the subject of stories about how he set it up
  5. Trout wasn’t dipping into his personal collection for some kid…
  6. No Romy? Before the season you said you wouldn’t be surprised if he was DFAd..
  7. 3. Justin Wilson. I figured he’d be released by July and not be a key member of the bullpen. 2. Narvaez. From minor league scrap heap to legitimate All Star snub. 1. Devers trade. Never saw it coming and once it did, I figured it to derail the season.
  8. At the time of the trade, Campbell had played 14 games at Greenville (A+)…
  9. I wonder what the actual heights are. Yoshida is listed at 5’8”. But when you see him in person, even that looks like a stretch…
  10. They might non-tender him simply because he would be a cheaper free agent than arbitration candidate. They do risk losing him that way. Not sure how much of a concern that is…
  11. I agree Santana will cost less than Naylor. I disagree that two months of Naylor will require Campbell, Casas, and then some…
  12. Burger is a waste. Texas is reportedly looking to add a 1b at the deadline. If Burger was a good solution, that wouldn’t be necessary. Very, very doubtful the Angels trade 23yo Nolan Schanuel, a player they like so much he went right from signing his contract out of college to starting at 1b in MLB the same year. Hes 23 and IMO. a future star, better than his more hyped fellow draftee Wyatt Langford…
  13. Casas is a non- tender candidate. If the Sox do drop him, hopefully that action doesn’t injure him further…
  14. This accomplishes the same thing. Odd choice because maybe outside of Rafaela, Yoshida is probably the shortest player in the Sox system above A ball…
  15. “Nothing really rocks and nothing really rolls and nothing’s ever worth the cost”?
  16. Because he owned the Twins by the third movie. And then he went on to take over his son’s psychic detective agency….
  17. Instead of upgrading Wong, maybe the Sox need a catcher with an option left. They have only Wong and Narvaez on the 40 man roster and only Seby Zavala with any MLB experience in the minors, where he’s not exactly dazzling. With no more August trades, the Sox might want to add depth just in case of injury at catcher. Unless they’re fine with Zavala, who is there for them without taking up a 40 man spot…
  18. Scott Kingery? there was a Mike Kingery, but he was a nondescript outfielder for Seattle in the 1980s. Scott signed the big MLB deal out of college before playing a single professional game..
  19. I actually didn’t like it much for Boston from a talent perspective, but the deal made sense all around…
