  1. They also had plenty of time to rectify that, but chose not to for some reason...
  2. It’s out there. Therefore, it’s technically a rumor…
  3. 1. I do the rumored Paxton/Paez trade. 2. If the White Sox do a suggested Abreu/Fedde swap, even better. 3. Apparently Rengifo (and not DeJong) is the top infield target. BTV gives Rengifo a surplus value of 10.9, which suggests Bleis (13.1) as a fair comp…
  4. Oh it definitely is…
  5. Yahoo recently listed 3 players the Sox have been linked to and, spoiler alert, nothing new. The players are Paxton, Taillon and Rengifo. The inclusion of Taillon is confusing since Hoyer was recently quoted as saying the Cubs goal is “2025 and beyond”, and with Taillon under team control through 2026, he should be part of that, especially considering pitching is the top 9 items and Hoyer’s top ten needs list. And item 10 is only slightly different, reading “and more pitching”. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/three-players-linked-red-sox-134055210.html
  6. Isn’t Fansided just a fan blogging site? Not that the Yahoo grades have proven any better…
  7. Exactly, which to me defeats the purpose of the initial grade…
  8. Stories of disgruntlement from remaining players on selling teams are ubiquitous throughout MLB history. Do you know how pissed the remaining Red Sox were all through the 1920s as they literally watched teammate after teammate reconvene in New York and proceed to dominate the sport?
  9. That is his real name, isn’t it?
  10. So they declared Houston the winner of the trade?
  11. This year Bloom has a couple small wins on trades that were panned previously. That grades change over time defeats the purpose of grading them, especially when it’s known that they will change…
  12. I’m not so sure. I think a lot of fans made a bigger deal than Vazquez did…
  13. Exactly. It’s 4 games. Why those 4 are more relevant sample size than the previous 95 is a mystery to me…
  14. But why not use some of the arms you have? Horn and Anderson each day unused for more than 10 days. Alex Speas hasn’t been touched since he was claimed. What’s the deal with Keller and Walter still taking up 40 man roster spots? And then there’s Mata…
  15. I like that sentiment. But they do need help…
  16. We did get rid of the guy who refused to put his finger anywhere near the trigger and who oversold Eric Hosmer to us. ( I suppose any selling of Hosmer was overselling.) I’m giving Breslow a chance and not holding Bloom against him…
  17. What was your grade for Vazquez for Abreu/Valdez at the time? I recall that trade drawing more ire than praise. But how about now?
  18. It’s not time just yet to run up the white flag…
  19. So still pretty beefy…
  20. They still project his ceiling as potential backend starter. I think he has a great shot at being the best MLB pitcher ever named Jedixson…
  21. I don’t get this obsession fans have with grading trades and declaring a winner for each trade, a subject that covers 90% of the comments on any MLBTR article about a trade. But it’s especially confusing when they clearly know that it could change depending on the younger players/prospects…
  22. Was it Pablo himself?
  23. That makes sense. Soxprospects definitely likes him, but doesn’t hide that he is a wild card and a long way off…
  24. Hey, if the Dodgers are handing out free gifts, I have no problem standing in line. Of course, Breslow seems to ignore these free gifts when others hand them out. Maybe for good reason?
  25. No, that was the Pablo Sandoval. Or maybe it was Grimace with a baseball glove. (I went there, and I will again. I’m not above body-shaming Pablo Sandoval and never will be.)
