  1. Considering how much the Padres gave up, I don't believe they were thinking rental.
  2. DEVERS DEliVERS! Not only does he give the SOX the lead, he also gives them some credibility.
  3. With Tatis due back fairly soon do the Padres now have the future Ortiz/Manny back to back bats?
  4. Altuve is a little taller than Eddie Gaedel, but a much better hitter.
  5. Probably one of Cora's scheduled rest days.
  6. I agree 100% and said as much in my OP.
  7. The thin air may effect their baseball operations' brain cells. Nerds think better in regular air.
  8. Maybe the SOX would have gotten something if Bloom had agreed to also pay the remainder of JD's contract. But it still wouldn't have amounted to much.
  9. In 2006 the Cards finished the regular season at 83-78 and ended up winning the WS. The more shocking part is that their 83-78 record was good enough for 1st place in the very weak NL Central.
  10. The other 3 major sports are even worse. I agree to what you've posted, but the importance of each game will always take a back seat to money. It makes the world go 'round. Shite, Pink Floyd wrote a whole song about it.
  11. Just learned that the Rockies were the only team in MLB that didn't make a trade.
  12. Looks like the Padres pulled a complete DD.
  13. Why isn't Clemens back in Texas where he really belongs? I remember a PO game, the SOX against the A's, and Roger the Dodger didn't have his best stuff. So what does Roger do? He intentionally gets himself thrown out of the game. Learned a lot about that 'never to be in the HOF' player that day. Also, met him in person while at the YAZ induction. A complete asswipe.
  14. Can't really blame Bloom for not trading JD. Other than the Mets no one was really interested and I can't blame them for their disinterest one bit.
  15. Was Sanchez asking Altuve for his autograph? or making plans for after game dinner?
  16. If Devers can't hit this guy, the SOX are in big trouble. Make that bigger trouble.
  17. It seems like Bloom was convinced the Mets would take JD, but the Mets went elsewhere and no other team was willing to offer much. As for EO, I have no clue.
  18. You've misread most of my post, but that's OK. I should have made it more clear.
  19. Btw, Illinois, I highly recommend a youtube video titled MR BASEBALL BOB UECKER. It's extremely funny and gives another perspective on this game we all love.
