  1. I don't believe Cooper is better option than Abreu at DH at this point. Ugh..
  2. Do we extend Houck now? His Arb1-Arb3 starts next year. He has had 9 quality starts. His 3 pitch mix is working.
  3. If I'm JH i'd be wondering 1) why the guy we signed for 5 yrs @$90M was not in the lineup everyday before he got hurt 2) the guy that was signed for $23M per year as an insurance for Xander has been out of the line and NOT hitting ever since he was signed 3) the young pitcher that was extended early jas had trouble mot being on the IL 4) why we gave a win win contract to Giolito....and the list goes on.
  4. Nah, had he stayed with the Sox, he'd be hurt.
  5. Slaten looks like a closer to me for 2025. Abreu has better rookie numbers than everyone's favorite Cowser.
  6. Zach Penrod promoted to Worcester. A lefty, 53 K's in 35+ innings. Expect him to get to the majors by year end.
  7. We the fans are focused Who is going to join the futures team with Devers, Wong, Casas, Duran, Rafaela and Abreu?
  8. Everything I read from Atlanta papers was how bad he was at shortstop. Look I am NOT married to anyone. I don't care who takes control of 2B. At some point he has to produce or he should be sent down to work on his game. You have to give him a path to succeed.
  9. We are the only team with a winning record not to be in the playoffs if the season ended last night. Really a good job by Cora and his staff directing this group. We can compete as long as our starting pitching stays effective. The biggest 'acquisition' would be the return of Casas.
  10. Yes! Instead of focusing on the past (Betts, Xander, Sale) we should focus on the player we have in our organization. They ain't coming back.
  11. Sale trade was made to get rid of the stench he was leaving in the dougout. It was the death stench. He can throw perfect games for Atlanta for all I care. He didn't earn his extension $$$$. Quit defending him. His stench was so bad we paid him $17M to leave the park.
  12. I'm happy watching our athletic trio in OF. We are building a contender the right way. Sale wouldn't be in my future plans.
  13. He is a 4 year arbitration guy. So the Sox has another 4 years of team control. He has improved his defense immensely. I believe the management loves his athleticism. He has shown he can play everyday. He may not be 'young' but having control of his 29-32 years mean he should be at the top of his game. I would not trade him.
  14. Sales' trade with White Sox was Freakin' good. His extension SUCKED.
  15. Yes they have always thought of him as a starter
  16. Cooper and Smith are hired guns. They won't be back next year. Like you said this is the year of discovery. Finding the core for next few years. I think Duran has punched the ticket. Grissom should get a long look.
  17. Someone suggested we offer him QO. Unreal.
  18. We are 1-6 vs AL East. That is my best measuring stick. I just don't see things getting better when our starters have pitched above expectations and still has a losing record. Only open question for me right now is viability of Grissom.
  19. Latest Whitlock setback has me in the category of "Whatever I don't give a damn".
  20. I was saying 2 lefties and one righty works for me. Do you think I didn't know that Ref and Rafaela bats right?
  21. I get the L-R balancing act. But I was thinking we could live with Duran/Rafaela/Abreu in the OF. My problem is can we find a ss better than Rafaela? Just not coumting on Story. He looks like Chris Sale injury wise. Not sure how dependable he will be going forward.
  22. I would extend Duran and Abreu.
  23. I agree. The season is not half over. He definitely has couple of holes in his swing. What idiot would give him a qualifying offer? Geez....let's get real.
  24. I don't know about anyone else but our 1B tandem sucks. It's really bad when they both play. 0-8 coming up.
