All they had to do was outbid a Padres’ offer that turned out to be even weaker…
-
Story clearly wanted to play. You’re thinking of Rendon…
-
Damnit. I was hoping someone would say "about a week back." Where are my fellow Stooges' fans?!? 5Gold? I'm looking at you here!
-
True. That's why Dennis Miller didn't last on Monday Night Football...
-
Yoshida's bat was ok. His big issues were in the field...
-
Lots of prospects make their debuts when an injury opens the door. The important part at that time was Grissom was the prospect they promoted over any of the other middle infielders in their system...
-
Looked through the Sale trade thread and never saw anything about you predicting Sale being healthy. However, you did say you were not sad to see him go and griped a lot about paying $17mill. Save a few n's for yourself...
-
I never said you couldn’t do that. I probably doubted the prediction, but telling people what they can and can’t post is your thing, not mine…
-
After 167 innings? You’re desperately trying to sell hindsight here…
-
So you’re saying they played the long con with they lie, rushing Grissom through their minor leagues to debut in 2022? Or are you saying it started in the 11th round of the 2019 draft, when Anthopolous said “this guy should be picked this early, but if we overhype him, five years from now we can trade him for an ace caliber pitcher?”
-
Those same Braves who you credit for seeing something in Sale?
-
He’s absolutely dealt with this year. The only ones who doubt that are the ones who don’t understand. Will you continue misquoting and failing to understand like you did with that whole “Notin said guarding the lines is the shift” thing? It gets really sad when I use your trash talk as actual trash talk against you…
-
When did he get that?
-
Well, sac bunts it does. But not bunting…
-
What if he does that thing where he calls it an “opinion”? That’s the word people who can’t stand being told they’re wrong like to hide behind…
-
When I read this, my first thought was “Bernardino probably has more IP than those guys.” Wins Above Replacement trends towards being a cumulative stat. Nope. Fewer IP than all of them…
-
I've been among the pro-Crawford crowd since last year, but I think the dumbest comment about Bello was when I read the Sox should have given his extension to Crawford instead. Early results aside, Bello is just a much better pitcher than Crawford...
-
When I see something like that, my first thought is "do they know something about this guy and sinkers outside? Was that their strategy?" Maybe it was, but a lot of times when they're that simple I can't help but think it's not a good strategy...
-
Lou Gorman turned Jeff Bagwell into 22IP and 1 save…
-
Thinking Breslow knows something we don’t. Kavadas has been an option all along but keeps getting passed on. It’s not like Breslow never heard of the guy…
-
So did Steve Matz. Should the Sox have gotten excited their ace was pitching like the guy at the back end of the last place Cardinals’ rotation? And the Sox gambled on Sale four times and lost each time. Why is it so difficult to understand they weren’t so willing to gamble a fifth time?
-
Fine, but still better than taking back a 32yo minor league backup catcher and saving (most of?) the $17mill that Henry likely wouldn’t re-invest anyway…
-
Oh they got a great deal on a rejuvenated pitcher. No one is questioning that. Breslow probably could have made them pay more money, but at least tried to get back actual baseball talent as opposed to a straight salary dump. Right now, that’s the only consolation Sox fans have with this deal..
-
That’s very possible. Supposedly a team inquired about Sale and was willing to take his entire contract in 2022, but Bloom declined because the return was negligible. Then Sale went for a bike ride and ended that. That unnamed team could have certainly been the Braves…
-
There is a long history of these immediate extensions becoming contingenies for players approving trades. It’s ignorant to simply says it’s incorrect when it’s a very distinct and likely possibility…
