  1. Yeah, they are worse than the Sox. He will be moved just like Colome.
  2. May be a bad thing if you want the Sox to sign a big free agent starter in the offseason. If Covey pitches well, Hahn will use it as an excuse not to sign one. Giolito Kopech Cease Lopez Covey
  3. Is he going to deserve it first? Dude needs to show something other than getting a promotion because he was a high first round pick.
  4. Eh, probably. But I like the idea of nabbing one of some other team’s top positional prospects. Let a better organization develop the player we want since the Sox aren’t exactly known for developing hitters.
  5. Which they may or may not do because he has one more year of arbitration right?
  6. Forgot about that injury. I also think some people expect too much for Colome. But a young lefty CF/RF or 2B would be a nice get for him.
  7. I guess it doesn’t really matter. It’s worked out for them. And yes, they will be printing even more money when they get that new TV station revenue.
  8. I agree that Theo has failed to develop pitching. But all of their moves year after year prove that it doesn’t matter. They are printing money. They need a closer? Boom, here’s $45 million. Hahn barely gets to spend that in one offseason. He must be jealous. No expensive toys for Rick. Rick would never get this kind of love from his ownership. Gotta be nice.
  9. True, but it’s also more like 2.5-years, $36 million to the Cubs due to the freed up Zobrist money (around $9 million). I’m sure the Cubs already know that Zobrist is done for the year and possibly going to retire.
  10. Chump change for the Cubs. Pretty good deal. I don’t see them regretting that contract. Plus, the Cubs basically got back $9 million of Zobrist’s $12 million dollar salary for this season to give to Kimbrel when he essentially retired. They also get insurance money back at the end of the season for Morrow being a bum and never pitching.
  11. His numbers in September of last year were fine. Not sure what you saw. Definitely worth a shot for this reason alone... https://mobile.twitter.com/KyleAGlaser/status/1136432272868093952?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet
  12. Why? We don’t even know the terms yet. They didn’t have to give up a a draft pick and they haven’t paid Zobrist his salary since he was placed on the Restricted List on May 8th due to his divorce. Zobrist exiting will pay for Kimbrel this year. Also, it’s only money and the Cubs are swimming in it.
  13. https://mobile.twitter.com/Ken_Rosenthal/status/1136434593366777859 Multi-year deal.
  14. https://mobile.twitter.com/ken_rosenthal/status/1136431087104798720 No Colome for Nico Hoerner. 😰
  15. I can’t stand when Steve Stone says that a closer’s ERA doesn’t matter.
  16. I already don’t see it happening but I think the blame will ultimately fall on Jerry for not letting Hahn spend the money for a top free agent.
  17. If you literally question if your manager is bad after almost every game, your manager is bad.
  18. And what if he signs no big name free agents in years that actually matter? Because that could be as soon as next year. So if the Sox don’t make any big free agent signings within the next two offseasons or so, will you blame Hahn?
  19. I don’t like Yolmer at all but .272 / .346 / .723 at A+ is hardly doing very well for a first round pick. Seems like they are jumping the gun on his promotion just to see if he can be penciled in the lineup for next year.
  20. Obviously another bad decision in a bad offseason, made worse by the fact that Jay cost $4 million and hasn’t played for the Sox and Avisail was signed for a base salary of $3.5 million and is OPS’ing .892.
  21. Grades don’t matter as much as production. Madrigal is not exactly close to the majors right now, at least he shouldn’t be based on his production. The Sox may decide to rush him anyways.
