  1. Gomber Pyle has come back to earth.
  2. Westbrook! I didn't see that coming.
  3. Just checked. Devers is batting .218 against LH's. When I said the SOX best hitter, perhaps you were thinking of someone else.
  4. Denver has the highest altitude of any city in MLB. Atlanta is second.
  5. The SOX are getting Gombered.
  6. The defense hasn't been the problem of late. Never thought I'd say that.
  7. Hey, Vegas, if the SOX FO and ownership don't give a rat's behind, why should we?
  8. Or maybe the thin air is effecting Houck's stuff.
  9. Neither Houck or Kutter have pitched the number of innings they've pitched so far this season. I think we're starting to see the effects of that.
  10. The SOX have 4 prospects in the top 100, and the FO has made it pretty clear they're not trading any of them.
  11. That would give the SOX 2 Ohtani's.
  12. Right now there are 24 teams in MLB still in contention for a PO spot.
  13. It was mentioned that it would be nice to get a starter, but not the priority. As for the BP, they mentioned the SOX BP was no better or worse than any other team's BP. That every contender was looking for BP help.
  14. Getting the Rockies' feed and was just informed that the SOX best hitter is batting .218 against LH's. That adds to why the SOX have a poor record against LH's.
  15. Heard some SOX talking heads mention today the SOX priority s/b a RH bat. As for another starter and BP help, most stated that Cora could make what they already have work.
  16. I highly doubt the SOX will pick up Paxton having recently gotten rid of him. But if he hadn't already been a member of the SOX, they would grab him in a NY minute. Because that's how the recent version of the SOX operate. When I say recent. I mean the last few years. In fact DFA should be changed to DFB-Destined For Boston.
  17. They must have DFA'd Paxton for giving up 2 runs against the SOX as a left hander.
  18. Horn and Anderson being members of the SOX reflect just how barren the SOX farm is in pitching.
  19. Nah, that series would have had to been played in Florida.
  20. Ruth wasn't actually a trade. He was sold for $150,000, although the amount seems to be in question. Btw, speaking of trades, for a NY minute the SOX and Yankems were discussing trading Williams for DiMaggio. Rumor has it that the SOX also wanted Berra and that pretty much ended the discussion.
  21. If the SOX FO was serious about a PO bid, they would have done something significant by now. I'm guessing they're betting the farm, no pun intended, that their precious prospects will turn this franchise around. Maybe by next year or the year after. Looks like they're following the O's plan. Only problem is there's no future pitching prospects on the farm, so they're gonna have to buy some during the offseason.
  22. Are you disputing the words of Big Papi? Blasphemy!
  23. I've got a better suggestion, but it would cause me to get banned.
  24. Recently Kenley's trade value, if they go that way, has taken a significant dive.
  25. Big Papi predicted a few days ago that this SOX team will win the WS. And Papi don't lie. So, after the SOX do win the 2024 WS we will have to disclaim any knowledge of today's posts. I will probably change my moniker.
