  1. Im still disappointed with how infrequently this Sox team tries to steal. They have the wheels; why aren’t they rolling?
  2. Miguel Cabrera, Christian Yelich, Josh Beckett…
  3. Bad news sells. Even in sports…
  4. I like sac bunting if runners are on 1st and 2nd with no one out and the 8 or 9 spot hitter up. Unless the pitcher walked both runners on. Then take a few pitches in case he still hasn’t found the zone…
  5. How many ways do we need to skin a cat? And why is anyone doing this at all?
  6. Miami doesn’t seem to let performance dictate trades like they do contracts. They traded a reigning MVP once…
  7. You know Story, assuming (and safely so) he is still here, is getting the job once he returns. I’ll take Cheng with his .600 OPS and defense over Story and his .542 OPS with limited defense…
  8. Hopefully. But Wacha will be popular among teams that miss out on Skubal and maybe Peralta. Breslow isn’t much for outbidding…
  9. You might not even be downgrading expected runs if you get the infield to come in…
  10. Or the deeply insightful complaints from Michael Holley..,
  11. They say he isn’t giving himself up for an out, which is why the statement is limited to sacrifice bunting…
  12. Especially if you only saw those two bad throws against the Reds and Brewers…
  13. There’s a big difference between “this guy is terrible “ and “this guy is terrible this year.”
  14. The Sox really need to stop trying to change everyone’s swing…
  15. I liked Cheng. I demote Seigler there. Hes largely redundant with Mead. i think it’s 12-1 in Cheng starts. But yes, I’m on board…
  16. No idea why, but didn’t they try to change too much about Campbell’s approach and swing? And maybe get rid of that toe tap? He still has elite batspeed and only struggled for one month in MLB. If he is learning to hit with a drastically different swing, of course he is going to struggle. Although frankly, I thought they tried to fix something that might not have been broken…
  17. It is surprising how many have written of Mayer, Campbell and Anthony after the three have a combined total of about 1,000 plate appearances…
  18. For the sake of having a metric, BTV gives Mayer $29mill in surplus value. I don’t think many teams want him at that price point, but I think every team does have an acceptable one for him. That no team would take him period is ridiculous….
  19. Most GMs do. But Edward Cabrera still finds work every year. If the Sox DFAd Mayer, do you think there are GMs that don’t try to claim him?
  20. I can promise you zero GMs would not want Mayer. Now, the number willing to give up something good to acquire him is up for debate…
  21. I think it’s more of a statement about Kade Anderson than Anthony…
  22. 30 hours from where I live where we do get those 95-100 degree hot stretches, but luckily the tornados come trough and cool us off…
