Just now, fathom said:

They have a shot at Castellanos (even though they seem locked in on a lefty hitter).  They never had a prayer to get Cole.

I don’t think they have a shot at Castellanos due to his agent and second half hot streak.

It‘s a no-brainer move.

 

I will believe Yolmer is gone when I see it.  

[Moan4Yoan 1,824]

Steve Stone is embarrassing himself saying that Covey can still pitch in the league.

Sure Steve, he can pitch to the tune of a 7 ERA.

Mariners tank is in full effect now. Covey will start to look competent now. 

[CaliSoxFanViaSWside 3,916]

Nice 6 pitch inning for Covey

I think you are dead wrong here.  Why would the Sox pay Yolmer $5 to $6 million to do something that Mendick can do for $500K?  What’s the advantage to retaining him for one more year at that arbitration price when he won’t even be a starter for the majority of the season unless Madrigal gets injured?

With Stone talking up Yolmer as the best defensive 2nd baseman in either league...probably thinking of trade to get something for him.

Tough crowd here. Engel gets an LOL for a home run and a "does it really matter" and Jose gets total crickets for homer 33 and RBI 113. U guys baffle me.

[pcq 1,198]

Collins and Narvaez in the same game. Catchers who can't catch. 

[SoxAce 3,199]

Keep hitting Timmy!

[greg775 1,784]

Tim is an all star. Another nice double by him.

Fine, trade him for whatever you can get in the offseason.  It won’t be much if anything due to his arbitration cost and horrible year.

RBI 116 Greg

[poppysox 2,196]

Timmy can smell that batting title.

Probably because you are the only poster who truly cares about wins when the Sox are already eliminated.  Abreu doing well is nice because he will likely be around next year.  Engel is just a weak fourth outfielder.  It’s nice if he hits but you could improve on him as your fourth outfielder.

Bases loaded for Eloy. 

[poppysox 2,196]

Eloy licking his chops.

[SoxAce 3,199]

This PBP guy is outstanding. Can we get this guy instead of Benetti please?

[SoxAce 3,199]

That wasn't a strike blue. 

[fathom 12,331]

This umpire is freaking horrible 

[CaliSoxFanViaSWside 3,916]

BS strike 3 call on Eloy

[harkness99 904]

Yes, I was thinking the same thing.  He is mostly all business and informative without the awful corny jokes.
