  1. At a bare minimum, it should be universally agreed upon that after 2025, Story at least deserved to not be DFAd…
  2. Gotta hand something to Tracy. He used a starting lineup featuring Romy Gonzalez, Andruw Monasterio, Nate Eaton, Connor Wong, Brett Harris and Patrick Sandoval, who was starting his first game in nearly two years. All that against a team leading their division. And got a win…
  3. He’s the backup catcher. Hitting from him is a bonus. But, hey, Duran got the chance to extend his K streak to 10 games and he took full advantage right away…
  4. I had no faith. I not only admit it, but I also refuse to deny I said it. But I’ve never had a garage sale…
  5. His durability is a major question mark. Just because Boston has no use for him after this year doesnt mean he’s tradable. Sometimes you just can’t sell your garbage, and it’s people like you that think you can that went out and created the garage sale…
  6. They figured it was much easier to just take credit as opposed to giving helpful advice…
  7. He might have figured out how to get your SLG below your BA…
  8. I don’t think trading Sandoval is even possible and it’s probably not worth it. What team is leaping at the 20IP (at most) he’ll have at the deadline? I have no idea if the Sox deal Bello, but I’d be surprised if it wasn’t even considered…
  9. Absolutely not. The Sox are going to need Sandoval. If the Sox do go into sell mode, they likely dump Gray, and potentially Bello. And at some point will probably shut down Tolle and Bennett (and Early if he ever gets activated). The Sox are going to need an arm (or more?) to handle the IP at that point. And helping preserve the arms of Tolle, Early and Bennett is far more useful than anything Sandoval will brings back in a trade…
  10. I do agree that Mayer could have gone back to AAA. It’s not like he got promoted for dominating there (although he wasn’t exactly a bust either). But if the Sox were to fill that middle infield spot, it s any going to be with a Schwarber or Alonso. In fact, pribably not a free agent at all…
  11. By reindeer people, I was referring to the makers of the movie, since the animated Return of the King was made by the same people who made Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and several other stop motion holiday specials
  12. I am familiar with the older original works of Weird Al Yankovic. Points to the reindeer people for adding a musical number to a non-musical movie. You’re trying to compete with singing orcs here…
  13. Better than the Rankin/Bass animated version of The Return of The King that featured a troop of orcs singing “Where There’s A Whip, There’s A Way”?
  14. It’s not a mockumentary. It’s an actual documentary about how the movie got made, and it is wild…
  15. Yes. Cite your issues. Explain why the Marlins are not an example for stars maintaining drawing power…
  16. Then why did the Marlins average about 5,000-10,000 per game when they had Stanton, Yelich, Ozuna and Realmuto all in the same lineup ten years ago?
  17. Horrifically comical. Such a sad mistake that it makes Troll 2 look like Godfather 2 You know a movie is bad when they make a movie about making it, which happened for both The Room (The Disaster Artist) and Troll 2 (Best Worst Movie)…
  18. Whether buying or selling, sell on Gray and include enough cash to make the return worthwhile…
  19. No one expected this awful season from Duran, including teams that didn’t trade for him…
  20. Hitting on all three was probably unlikely. But hitting on 2 of 3 might have made a noticeable difference. Especially Duran, since he might have lead the team in PA…
  21. True, but he’s a lesser bat even in that specialized but limited role. But if players like Duran, Story, Narvaez were even close to last year, this team has a much better W-L record…
  22. Regardless, Duran has never been this useless. Trade him to Atlanta for Sean Murphy. How was Roman mismanaged? Please don’t say “he should have had surgery.” Not everyone with his injury has had surgery, and surgery itself is ALWAYS a big deal despite the fan attitude that it’s a quick fix treatment. I do think Marcelo should return to AAA. He wasn’t called up because he was ready; he was called up because he wasn’t injured. Time to get the old schedule back in place. As much as I like Cheng, Story does represent an improvement…
  23. Or to have the bats they already had actually show up. In the case of Romy, it was more literal…
  24. We’re also 3rd out of 30 in runs allowed, which does cut it…
