  1. Wouldn't be a bad idea to have someone warming in the pen.
  2. Might be cutting it close.
  3. The more MC plays the more his value plummets in a trade.
  4. It's a snail pace, but with the snail caught in an oil slick.
  5. No worries, the SOX will put up a crooked number in the 8th. Er, what's that? Nevermind.
  6. How about "Have Gun, Will Travel?"
  7. Good news: The Rays lost. Bad news: The Yankems won.
  8. When I think of the 'long term', I think of the 86 years between championships. The SOX have a good shot to win it all this year, but not w/o adding a very good starter. In addition to Sale. Let the future take care of itself.
  9. Scherzer has the power of approving what team the Nats attempt to trade him to. Like I posted earlier, he's definitely hinted he wants to play for a west coast team that's contending. Dodgers or Padres might be more appealing to him than Tampa. But, who knows.
  10. If the Rays acquire Scherzer, along with Glasnow coming back, that team will be a bear in the PO's.
  11. If the whole purpose of playing 162 games is to win the WS, how is it a terrible strategy to get players at the trade deadline that helps this to happen? Btw, do you know the definition of prospect? It's a player who has proven nothing.
  12. The Astros improved their team after just acquiring Seattle's very good closer Graveman. Reports are that the Mariners' clubhouse is not very happy with the trade.
  13. I could agree having it kick in after the 12th. Very good idea, Illinois.
  14. It's like paying to see a full movie and you're not allowed to watch the last half-hour. F you, MLB.
  15. Hell, the SOX lately don't even get going until the 8th inning.
  16. Two 7 inning games; just another wonderful new rule. Hopefully the fans will get a 23% discount on the price of their tickets.
  17. I wonder how important it was to Sale to have a teammate who has had TJ surgery and is better than ever.
  18. Throw in EO and that's a damn good 1-2-3.
  19. Just throwing this out there. If Bloom picks up Scherzer and with Sale coming back, would that make the SOX the favorites to win the WS? Imho, it would. So, would it be worth giving up some prospects and going over the luxury tax to go for it all this year? From listening to some SOX talking heads today, Scherzer is already all paid up for this season. However, from what I heard, Scherzer would have to approve going to certain teams, and he's hinted that he wants to play on the west coast, and, of course, the team would have to be a contender.
  20. Does this mean we can refer to Garrett as THE LITTLE TRAIN? Apology to Walter 'The Big Train' Johnson.
  21. Thank you for translating, Moon. You definitely can multi-task.
  22. Yup. An asterisk should be put on that save.
  23. I posted a few days ago that I would trade JD before I would trade Dugo. I'm proud of that post.
