  1. The SOX are the AVIS of blown leads.
  2. Just heard on the KC feed that the SOX have 25 blown leads this season, which is only 2nd to Texas with 28.
  3. I remember Price's contract with the SOX that would pay him 1 mil for every game he started. Looks like peanuts compared to Sale's 1.5 mil per inning.
  4. Well it actually maths out to 14mil/yr. Giving JBJ 12mil/yr really messes up the value chart.
  5. I'm also thinking that if he was offered an extension for a certain number of years, would he accept less than 16 mil/yr? Maybe 3 yrs at 42 mil?
  6. If that's the case, SOX fans will have to pin their hopes on Casas.
  7. Sanchez is like the 2nd base version of JBJ.
  8. Winck's good job against the weak Royals tonight makes what Pivetta did last night look even worse.
  9. Not a first vote selection, but down the road I think he has a great chance. Unfortunately for him his last 3 seasons have been pretty average or less.
  10. Haven't seen this amount of offense in a while. Btw, when you see so many players who shouldn't be in MLB and the powers that be want more expansion, it's utterly ridiculous.
  11. Just checked Greinke's lifetime pitching stats. 222 wins 138 losses ERA of 3.44 WHIP 1.16 Those are way above average lifetime stats. He had 3 great years with the Dodgers from 2013-2015, where he was one of the elite pitchers in MLB. In 2015 he was 19-3, an amazing ERA of 1.66 and an equally amazing WHIP of 0.84.
  12. Well that's a whole different concept. I was going in the winning more games direction.
  13. The only thing that would have made that funnier is if Sanchez was wearing a Groucho Marx disguise.
  14. Too bad chUMPS can't be DFA'd for ineptness. However, if that did happen, there would only be enough chUMPS left to maybe have two at each game.
  15. Unless Hosmer goes on a hell of a tear these next two months, I think the SOX could keep him at his current salary.
  16. Then that makes him twice as bad as JBJ. Duran would make a hell of a pinch runner though.
  17. He just hit a hanging curve; don't get your hopes up.
  18. Are you being sarcastic? Maybe because JD has been, shall we say, a little disappointing.
  19. Dugo gets unfairly criticized on this board mainly because he was a return for the trade of god-like Betts, who, in reality, didn't even want to play anymore in Boston.
  20. But, as someone else posted, the SOX will still need a DH next season. They actually need one now.
  21. I'm guessing Casas' progress or lack of will be a determining factor concerning Hosmer's time with the SOX.
  22. I believe Arroyo is in the organization, but before I criticize Cora I'm never sure Arroyo is healthy enough to play.
