Catchers, Catchers, Anywhere?
After numerous demotions of Quero to the minors to "get some at-bats and work on things," I now wonder whether there was/is more to it. Consider that the Sox are in the final weeks of a pennant race during which time Getz acquired two veteran catchers and kept Romo as the back-up. Anyway, I am just hoping to see Teel back before the end of the season.

Playoff Odds: 92.3% to make postseason, 10.4% to win World Series (that last part can't be right)

They went like 7-3 a little over a week ago and look where that got them. The Sox play basically the same schedule in terms of “ease”

“The 78” is alive and well for the Sox, Bears are 'advancing' Hammond development
Mouthsider once again, the aerial photos are awesome. As a former skeptic of not enough land for a ballpark, I now see how a park can fit in the rail yard footprint. I was listening to the radio yesterday on Ishbia's 14th street project and road access was brought up. They also mentioned the 78 stadium and vehicle access. I don't know how the present roads could handle vehicle traffic. Have you heard of any way to tie in I-90 ? Remote parking lots with shuttles could be a solution.

…and? That’s one hot week away from contention in this division.

It’s mid August and they are 4 games under 500.

Tigers seem very complimentary of him, especially his leadership qualities.

Catchers, Catchers, Anywhere?
Q has been on this roster to get everyday AB’s. He was slated for Charlotte for everyday AB’s until Teel went down in the WBC. Then, everyday AB opportunities came up, so he got called up. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that he is back in Charlotte again. His development needs to happen in AAA, especially on the bat side.

Still concerned. They have the easiest schedule remaining. They can catch fire at any time IMO. They’re just that annoying.

Catchers, Catchers, Anywhere?
The Sox have Bart, Q, Romo, and Teel under control. The only catcher I don't see wearing a Sox uniform is Lee. With Q he still is a young guy that can be developed so I wouldn't get rid of him yet. Bart & Romo are backups. Is Teel the guy? I always assumed so, but he can't stay on the field. Sox have the off season to figure who stays and who goes.

Catchers, Catchers, Anywhere?
My guess the Sox keep him but in Charlotte as an insurance policy with Teel being injury prone. I’m actually hoping Teel isn’t injury prone but extremely unlucky.

They have no offense and got swept by the Mets.

Castillo to Sox for Dominguez, Boston Smith, Nolan Jones per Passan
Nobody would have predicted that adding Mahle and deGrom turning down now the Braves' potential trade would work out so well... "Meanwhile, Mahle has been dealing since joining Atlanta, pitching well in his first two starts with the Braves. There is no telling what deGrom would have done in those two starts, especially now that he is dealing with triceps fatigue."

White Sox acquired RHPs Jordan Hicks and David Sandlin from BOS
Hicks is signed for 2027, but Newcomb will be a FA. Resigning Newcomb would be a nice move I hope the Sox get it done in the off season.

Crazy how much pitching talent Boston has given up recently...Rutschman deal for minor league right-handers Anthony Eyanson and Kyson Witherspoon, Mead deal for Tolle, Kyle Harrison/Shane Drohan to Brewers, Sandlin and Hicks, etc. Bello has collapsed, too.

I love it when you analyze….I think you are so right. It set the tone for Melton to throw a lot of pitches in the first.

Yes, I want Cleveland dead and buried. Next 2 weeks will tell us a lot as Cleveland has a chance to make up ground with a really weak schedule: Giants, Rockies, Angels, Royals.

Hicks and Newcomb have definitely been key bullpen cogs recently...along with Taylor and Hudson, ofc.

We did the same with Sale Crochet Cease Rodon Giolito Lopez...very little to still show for all those pitching departures except for the Crochet trade.

The last 2-3 seasons GRF has played slightly offense negative...which includes all hitters, Sox and opponents. Rated 98-99 with 100 neutral Seattle by comparison at 91-92 and the worst park for offense in the majors. And Vaughn has done much better with Milwaukee than the Sox btw.
