fathom Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Can’t link it but found it funny that Ozzie Jr tweeted if Sox fans would change their mind about Javy if he signed with the Sox. Didn’t seem like any inside info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more blogging for you! That would be hilarious if that happened. Perhaps they sense it too and that's why they don't want to pull the trigger on the trade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 4 minutes ago, Bob Sacamano said: Oh, that was in reply to the comment about Yankees fans being upset they didn't sign a SS (there's still 3 out there). While I still think Cashman is good, I think yankee fans should be upset. Since that group left for Miami it hasn't felt like yankees are bringing the same overwhelming talent engine LAD brings. If you are a yankee fan, you should judge them by the other key franchises. And LAD is running circles around NYY in their process. If you are Steinbrenner, wouldn't you want to get David Stearns for you and bring his Ace factory to the bronx rather than signing pitchers for 13 years and having to figure out how to cycle them through? Anyway, yes this is my poor yankees fans speech. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be incredible defensively and more importantly, piss off every Cubs fan I know. People don’t realize how much every young kid in Chicago loves Javy. Even kids that are Sox fans love him (besides mine) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either one wouldn’t be totally that bad. Soler knows the AL Central and has two WS rings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he swings and misses at precisely the right frequency for the waves to move around the ballpark, they will interfere constructively and turn into a version of Nikola Tesla’s earthquake machine.

ShandyMan Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I'm still optimistic, but if thing's dont improve it will be such a shame. This team has the potential to be dominant for the next 5-10 years with a couple aggressive additions. Otherwise, I have a feeling it will be a lot of first round playoff exits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they sense it too and that's why they don't want to pull the trigger on the trade. It would be a pretty epic fuck-up on their end. Like up there with trading Ray Durham to the A’s for Jon Adkins and not realizing you would have got a comp pick, acquiring Machado’s buddies for him not to sign with us, and trading James Baldwin to the Dodgers for the wrong player.

Unlikely for them to miss all 4 wild cards though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
