This is so far off-base it's like a thread made by Ron

Kind of embarrassing that Roch’s second professional game will be at a stadium celebrating tighty whitey underwear

Alex Call getting lots of trade interest apparently...

Panican 😜

Rough season for the Ms

Bingo. The sky is not falling.

I don’t know about his pitch selection as a catcher but at the plate, Smith is an incredibly smart hitter with a good plan up there. A 200 WRC+ doesn’t happen by accident.

By that logic, every team is thinking that because nothing has happened.

Stop that. I want to be pissed with all the other humbugs still.

Where do you live, brah?

Hicks throws 12 innings TODAY and we lose.

It’s too early. We won’t see the flood trickle until tomorrow and the gates burst open until Monday. The Sox will be getting pitching, a catcher, and maybe more.

Why do you think this?

MLB Trade RumorsSeveral Teams Showing Interest In Casey MizeAll the focus is on Tarik Skubal, but the Tigers have more than one big starter to shop. MLB Trade Rumors breaks down Casey Mize's market.

I think Getz might be thinking the prices are way too high for even rentals, if that's the case I'm good with saving the farm

Unless he is writing a check for half a billion to him, that would be a genuinely terrible idea.

A couple more today would be nice to add to the list.

Fun fact: Hicks had a 2.33 ERA through his first 11 starts with the Giants in 2024. I remember the discourse about how smart SF was to take the chance at converting him to starter.

2 for his last 14. wrc+ of 58 in Pit.

If someone has to be sacrificed, it may as well be Ron. Then we can officially retire that awful Chairman of the Board nickname.

I vote in favor of your proposal!

I may have already written this in this thread, but he didn't even call pitchers in that one year of primary catching in college. So he's having to learn that on the fly. When he was talking about pitch calling/sequencing in an interview I heard, he really gave the impression that he knew next to nothing about it. Almost gives an insight into his hitting that he's up there with an empty head just hacking at whatever looks right (might be more gift than curse, TBH)

yup
