Why are we so quick to sell the farm this season? Why give up a potential 20 HR, perennial gold glove shortstop (#60 prospect in baseball) for a guy with a career 4.7 ERA and 2 years left of control? It's just not good value by any standard. Now this is wild. Two top 100 prospects for a 5th starter/swingman. Why are we so keen on jettisoning talent from the system? The Sox are not one 'meh' pitcher away from being a WS contender. Is Detmers even better, today, than Hagen Smith? It's not like I hate the idea of trading for Detmers, but it takes guys like Jeral Perez and Mathias LaCombe to get it done not our previous two first round picks.

In Charlotte, it looks like Cannon was okay. 5 innings, 2 runs, 2bb, 4K. McDougal threw a clean inning with a K and Davitt struck out 5 in 3 scoreless innings. So, maybe some reinforcements there.

In game news, Bonemer is 2-3 with a HR. He seems to be adjusting to AA, which doesn’t surprise me. I had him as their top prospect coming into the year and with all the graduations he certainly is. I may have him ahead of Roch/Grady/Lackey when all is said and done.

Out of whose price range?

The Sox would have to go 23-47 to finish the season with 70 wins. That's a 51-win/162 pace. If enough key players got injured and they did about that, how in the world would that be an "embarrassment"?

Same here. Really wish I was in town or otherwise I’d be there.

Getting his teeth kicked in again tonight by the Rangers. But hey strikeouts amirite! I wouldn’t give up anything of substance for him.

It would help if the line up today did not include Junior Pérez hitting fifth, and Acuna and Romo anchoring the bottom of the lineup.

Bad Ideas 101

Qa I have to imagine that gets outbid, big time.

Honesty and realism.

Listen, up until the last 3 months has there been much of any argument about who is the top pick. Then after Roch and UCLA lost in the NCAA Tourney and he didn't have a very good showing at the plate during it everyone got on this Emerson kick. If they are now considered 1 and 1A give me the College kid over the High Schooler most every time.

Nothing. We need someone who can hit LHP as well as RHP.

Nothing is official until it opens, just ask the Spire.

How much would you pay for Moniak?

Fill in with Gonzalez, Iriarte, Pallette, whoever is throwing the ball well at the time.

Get a legit DH.

I see Elko is at 1B for the Dash.

Maybe the worst series AT HOME this year, but that Brewers series to start the season was as bad as it gets.

The guys really seem to feed off the crowd and Mexican Heritage Night is one of most raucous (if not the most) games of the year. That + Mune's return has me super pumped for tomorrow. Wish I could go

Random musings: #1 Totally agree with it. #2 Just last year we thought catching was going to be a strength, turns out it hasn't worked out that way. I know some don't care for Lee but he's got to be better than Romo and maybe deserves a shot. #3 Wouldn't count on Pereira, he hasn't even started baseball activities. That concussion must be really bad. Hays is a wild card, guy can't stay healthy so who knows even if he does return, how long he'll be able to play. #4 I get they hype with McDougal but the guy is coming off an arm issue. Everyone seems to be assuming he'll be fine. I'm not. Need to see the rest and rehab actually worked. #5 The rotation absolutely needs help. Two starters with Schultz possibly being sent back down.
