  1. No Yoshida? Dude has a .915 OPS during the streak…
  2. If there’s a chance to insult people and put them down, you won’t shut the f*** up. Hell even if it involves making up the chance, because why wait for people to be wrong when blatantly lie? But any time someone asks you to follow up with useful information, and suddenly you go silent or say something stupid like “we’ve gone over this already.” So f***ing useless. Some of us don’t live in New England and were more swamped with stories about why a team loaded with pitching injuries would acquire Braxton Garrett and that Cookie Monster was the guest singer during the 7th inning stretch…
  3. So White was acquired because he’s a good speller? What’s next? We learn Erik Miller was acquired not because of his relief pitching but because of his mad algebra skills?
  4. White has a career OPS+ of 72. Eaton has a career OPS+ of 70. As offensive upgrades go, this is redefining minimal…
  5. White confuses me, too, but I don’t think he was acquired to start in LF. White can run and throw. He’s redundant with Eaton. But a worse hitter and I don’t think he has any options left considering he’s like 32…
  6. The fellows who went 1, 2, and 3 really haven’t been much better…
  7. So Mayer got Willoughby’d?
  8. The biggest tragedy in all this is we get robbed of pre-season superstar Braiden Ward….
  9. Assuming LA makes it. I mean, they just got swept at home by a team that was 32-46 not too long ago…
  10. I could cling to the “but not a rental” to validate my stance, but I am taking the L there…
  11. And Duran two years ago. But with Mayer, Arias wasn’t looking like the same prospect a year ago..
  12. Skubal might re-sign with the Dodgers. If they’re not the favorites, they’re certainly high on the list. But that has nothing to do with this trade, even if he extends tomorrow. And he very well might, with LA trying to get his deal in just in case the new CBA inhibits it somehow. But regardless, the trade was for 2 months of Skubal…
  13. White’s speed is 99th percentile per StatCast, and his arm strength is 78th percentile. Both are impressive. But if I’m Nate Eaton down in Worcester - basically the same speed with a stronger arm - my first thought “Hey! What the f***!?! Still here!”
  14. Well, technically I said not a rental reliever. Also, yes, you’re crazy 🤪 But at least it’s one of the happy kinds…
  15. Very likely. Although it’s interesting all this talk about adding a shortstop, and when the dust settled we had fewer of them when we started…
  16. Deeply mixed emotions. I think Rutschman and Miller cost a big chunk of this organization. But more important, the Sox should be better tomorrow than they were yesterday, and got that way while keeping Arias, who needs to be promoted ASAP.
  17. Not sure, but it doesn’t matter. Walk issues are the only thing that keeps Miller from being among the best LHRP in MLB. Actually they keep him from ranking higher; he is among the best LHRP. I don’t like giving up Mayer there, but Miller is no slouch. His option status is irrelevant. I think he either pushes Weissert to Worcester or spells Bennett with Bello moving back to the rotation or going long after an opener…
  18. The Sox didn’t trade Narvaez to get Connor Wong into the lineup more often. Once he is healthy, expect Rutschman to get behind the plate…
