  1. Let’s discuss what we have to offer! First: The easiest pieces for bres-slow to move are players on expiring contracts! We have five players (Chapman, Wilson, giolita, buehler and refsynder) that fit that criteria and should be easy to move! &nbsp Second: Quality relatively cheap players with years of control! Duran, abreau, cassas, Wong, rafeala, Whitlock, and Hamilton! Third: quality prospects. We got tons of them!!! let’s discuss what we want: 1.) quality starting pitching with years of control! A few names come to mind, skenes, alcantarra, and woo, but there are several others as well!!!!! 2.) quality reliever that can handle high leverage situations! To acquire a quality starter and reliever, bres-slow will have to overpay! The more years of control, the more the overpay will be!!! I would love to trade for alcanterra at the trade deadline, if Bailey can fix him! this offseason, we should go all in on skenes, only Mayer, narveaz and Anthony are off limits
  2. I think Devers will be visiting the DL when abreau comes back!!!!
  3. Uberstine threw some filthy pitches today!!! I know the command is still not where we need it to be, but the stuff was impressive today
  4. We have a ton of trade capital to make this happen! I know bres-slow had bad luck with trading for relievers last trade deadline!!! Let’s hope he gets it right this time. I do not know what morvani or possibly Sandoval adds but trading for a quality reliever seems the better path! we got abreau, Bregman and Houck potentially back in the next 30 days or so!!! add another quality starter via trade in addition to the quality reliever and we got a chance to make the playoffs
  5. Some of Cora’s decisions are baffling. Bringing in Kelly or guerrero or stock when the game is not out of reach???? we really need two more quality relievers for our bullpen!!!
  6. I like your thinking! But Pittsburgh needs at least 2 quality starting bats and the three pitching prospects: fitts, tolle, early, Duran, arias, abreau, Hamilton and Jordan for skenes!
  7. Van belle traded to cincy for cash. does this open a spot in Worcester for early???
  8. There is a huge negative impact on teams that routinely allow opponents extra outs!! I know our defense has cost us a few games! but leading baseball in blown saves, that’s especially painful!!!!
  9. Like you said. One game at a time and hope the starting pitching holds up
  10. Complete power outage across the major affiliates and Boston today
  11. Regarding Pittsburgh, please refer to point number 2!!!
  12. The Red Sox signed Duran to a weird contract this preseason. I cannot imagine the Red Sox did not know Anthony was coming quickly when they did that deal???
  13. Houck to start rehab assignment next Wednesday!!!!
  14. We need to be strategic sellers!! 1.) We have Wilson, Chapman, giolita, refsynder and buehler on expiring contracts. 2.) we have young players with years of control! 3.) we have two lame contracts, story and yoshida! we need starting pitching!! there is a deal to be made!! The dodgers have 5 starters on the DL! Beuhler is a fit! San Diego, Philly and the royals need outfield help! Pittsburgh needs offense! we get a quality starting pitcher at the trade deadline and maybe we make a push for the playoffs
  15. After we went up 6 to 1, the Portland manager stopped us from running anymore
  16. Last year, we went heavy college in the draft! I think bres-slow goes best player on their board onndsy 1, then back to the college arms
  17. Freille strikes out on 3 pitches outside the strike zone with the bases loaded
  18. Portland with 11 stolen bases through 4 innings???
  19. Garcia with his 6th Worcester tater tonight. A two run tater.
  20. And there is no evidence at this point that painter regains his amazing stuff!!!
