I love this team but holy shit do I hate this team

This sucks.

Biggest matchup in the game so far seems to be Stoney vs the word "Velasquez"

I get what you’re saying but if you look at the other teams that were in the playoffs, they aren’t banking on experience gained in last years playoffs to get them over the hump. They’re signing and trading for top end talent and addressing team needs. If they stand pat, we’re possibly looking at another first round exit because JR wouldn’t open his wallet and actually make this team better.

The complacency from this organization is mind-boggling. Last seasons best teams in both the AL and NL are pushing their chips in, the rest of the division are in position to start competing for the ALC title as soon as next year with some moderate aggression and the White Sox have a $60M bullpen, 3.5 starting pitchers, and a first baseman in right field. What the fuck are we even doing?

You don't want a platoon of 1Bs out there in right?

Signing. They can try to make a deal at the trade deadline if they spend now. But the farm is too weak to trade now and then try to make another deal later this summer.

If Jerry isn’t going to change his negotiation style to fit with the times, he needs to sell this team to someone interested in actually running it. He’s gonna piss away his best core in 2 decades because he’s stubborn and cheap. The Rockies just gave out a $162M deal, the Blue Jays are trading for stars to add to a championship core, the Dodgers spend money like there’s no tomorrow and Jerry buys another reliever and trots a couple 1B out to RF because the actual difference makers wanna be paid as such. What a pathetic excuse for an owner.* *This rant will be partially rescinded pending a Conforto/Castellanos signing and a trade for a good SP.

Find a cornerstone and build around him. Sorta reminds me of what the Nats did with Werth

Placed a bet on him for 2022 AL MVP at +3000 odds. LOVE my chances.

Maybe the Sox could sell the Cubs on reversing the Kimbrel deal since Heuer is hurt now. Lol

With the Kelly “news” coming out, would that be in lieu of a Tepera signing or possibly in addition to?

Sign: Tepera, Bryant, Rodon Trade Away: Kimbrel Trade For: Manaea, Pinder/Kemp

I'm not sold on Conforto. I'd prefer if they went after Marte.

Syndergaard, Bryant at 3B (move Yoan back to 2B), and Conforto or Marte in RF.
