  1. He'll just find a different dumpster.
  2. 'Gut-punched' Boone proves that if a team has good starters, a good BP, and a good defense, the manager doesn't have to be anything but average.
  3. With this season's history of DFA'ing relievers it may be tougher for Bloom to sign new relief arms for next season.
  4. When I see the word 'overboard,' I think of the Titanic, and when I think of the Titanic, I think of this year's SOX.
  5. I guess that's about the nicest things you can say about a guy who was banned from his own team's forum.
  6. Note to SOX FO: If you have an ounce of decency, please don't draft pitchers. Give those kids a chance to develop in other organizations.
  7. SOX finally score off of Jose Jimenez, the pitcher.
  8. This how you get your jollies off, jerk off?
  9. The month of June disguised how truly bad this team is.
  10. Stanton, much like JD, should be indicted for stealing over 20 million dollars. Of course, Stanton will be stealing millions for a longer time.
  11. Bello has some fine natural stuff. My question is do SOX pitching prospects get any valuable instruction in the SOX farm system? Their history of developing pitching says NO!
  12. Looks like at least 4 innings from the SOX pen.
  13. Haven't seen a batter who's more in a hurry to draw a walk than the powerless JD.
  14. The rare SOX lead-off double that doesn't score. For the SOX RISP=Runners In Stationary Position.
  15. Ohtani is a unicorn in the true meaning of the word.
  16. Watching the Angels/Guardians game and got to thinking about the value of Ohtani. He's two players in one. As a pitcher he's probably at least a 25mil/yr guy. As a hitter he's probably at least a 25mil/yr guy. I'm sure his agent has this same thought. My question then is will he get 50/mil/yr from any organization? If not, what do you think his annual salary should be?
  17. Pham Dugo Bogey Devers JD REF(CF) Arroyo(1B) Kike(2B) Wong
  18. N. Cortes vs B. Bello Worth watching just to see if Bello continues to pitch well. To me he looks like the real deal and exhibits much confidence on the mound. Cortes has probably been the Yankems' best starter this season, so runs will be at a premium. But, again, the only real importance of this game, IMHO, is to see, hopefully, the continued improvement of Mr Bello. Go SOX!
  19. Familia will be DFA'd; perhaps breaking a record for most DFA'd relievers in a season. I say if a team can break a record, they should go for it.
  20. Who's worse? I'm curious. But it was either Familia or Ort as RH relievers. Personally, I would have had more trust in the LH Strahm.
  21. I'm already ducking.
  22. Hard to win with 3 reliable relievers and the team's best hitter completely lost at HP. But other than that.
  23. Familia has done nothing to earn anyone's trust so I agree.
  24. Many long range contracts accept the fact there's gonna be 'breakdown years.' The thing that makes the Judge acquisition even more attractive is that the SOX could obtain a pretty good haul for Devers in a trade. But this is fantasy land. I doubt Judge will leave the Yankems.
  25. Dumpster diving results.
