  1. This is a team of guys that rise to the occasion...of avoiding a 3-23 start.
  2. To be fair, the iceberg was mostly hidden. We've been staring 40-50 wins down all offseason.
  3. When I do an OOTP fantasy draft I do a complete tank. At best I'll grab like two or three MLB starting caliber player in the first 10 rounds. The rest will all be top 50 type prospects until I let the CPU take over around round 40 or AAAA guys that will be on a league min deal. Those teams usually win around 40-60 games still. Congrats Sox, you have replicated my OOTP strategy IRL on accident, in a year you can't get the #1 pick, and unlike me you're not gonna spend 20 million in the international period either cause you're too stupid to put the payroll savings into future cheap teams.
  4. Pretty sure I read it's 21. So we're going to break it by August.
  5. I think I first heard about the site referred to as "the other site" (or similar) on WSI, where I was a lurker but didn't really feel in tune with the place (I was 20-21 at the time and WSI was mostly middle aged and older types) so did some googling and registered here. It's cool that I got on right at the start of the title year. Not so cool I'm now an old middle aged type.
  6. I think the dial only goes to 11. We're at 11. Can't go any higher.
  7. Optimistic. At this point I think they are literally trying to do one thing: not set the all time loss record. That is their only goal.
  8. JFC! The stupidity never FUCKING ENDS. YOU COMMITTED TO FLETCHER, THE SEASON IS OVER, PLAY THE FUCKING DUDE AND SEE IF HE CAN IMPROVE.
  9. Was willing to give Fletcher a shot but other than being lefty he has no tools. Statcast data is middling at best, production worse.
  10. You're spot on, couldn't agree more. The last thing a team full of try hard dopes like Vaughn needs is some tightass manager.
  11. Well no s%*#. Someone alert the GM and owner.
  12. f*** this guy. What exactly did he think was going to happen? Nobody forced him to sign with Chicago. He'll be lucky to get 50 PA the rest of his career in the MLB. f*** off, only Sox fans can trash the franchise, this guy is just another bum we wasted time, money and a 40 man spot on.
  13. Honestly who cares. He's lucky he got a few more weeks of big league p****.
  14. Kenny did a good job overall. He was also allowed to spend on contract in a way his followers have and will not be. It was a fun time to be a Sox fan growing up. Ever since I turned 30 it's been putrid and that was a decade ago now.
