  1. If they manage to play .500 ball the rest of the way they still wind up losing 90. 😬
  2. Even swapping the Sounds for the Sox might be a downgrade in talent at this point.
  3. We could hope against hope it will incentivize the ownership to make comprehensive and structural changes rather than rely on a quick shiny object or two.
  4. So we’re only three or four players away!!! /sarc
  5. So, Detroit lost 119 in 2003. What were they able to do to get to the WS three years later (aside from #1 picks which don't happen anymore)?
  6. If my paycheck went up at the same rate...I'd be driving a nicer car.
  7. Me feeling is like just kind of floating in limbo. I know this team roster has to completely turn over at least twice before it has a chance to be playoff viable. That known, it’s impossible to even hang hopes on what I will see on the field thinking it might be a step in building a path towards any future contention window. This now just is what is and will be.
  8. Agreed. Corner OF doesn’t demand much defensively so that’s where teams put the mashers who can’t field (unless they DH). Therefore, to be really worthwhile he needs to be *at least* as good offensively as the typical corner outfielder who already hits well.
  9. Knowing this org, Titanic Inc. would soon buy the naming rights to the stadium.
  10. Funny, I could have sworn I put Soxtalk in my browser address and not Bearstalk.
  11. I don’t think we (the taxpayers) should just give JR a stadium, but should we expect him to just give one to us? Where’s equilibrium? Maybe we should pony up escalated ticket prices?
  12. I'm a simpleton but I don't know why I should have to pay for the venue to be built and then pay again to get into it. If the thing makes money, shouldn't it pay for itself?
