Some of the talk was about coming out of this "around .500". It's exemplary what they've done.

and all of those games against the Phils were winnable.

Until he found another restaurant.

That call works.

Where do you stay? Are any of American or LaFayette Coney Island still there? Greektown was a fun block. Hamtramck has a bunch of fun bars. God, I love Detroit. Have fun!

I'm thinking emergency HOF election.

Waste time on that one, you Gay Caballero!

At least Yankee fans can clean up after themselves with those brooms they brought.

I can't wait until they DFA Benintendi, because I hate go ahead grand slams!!!!

C'mon Hill, f*** up like you did all 2024.

Because they grabbed him off waivers.

Colson should now give Ozzie some much needed advice on enunciation.

The Sox have played 72 games. They're 38-34 with 90 games left. If they play .500 ball the rest of the way (with the hardest stretch of the season out of the way), that's 83 wins. 86 wins has made the post-season from the AL 3 of the last 4 seasons.

I agree with this, but if they're still handling mid teams, winning at home, and getting blown out by the Yankees in NYC, that could still very well be a playoff team this season. I don't think they'll load up with Skubal, Rosario and Alcantara late July. Pick up Robbie Ray, catch lightning with Mason Adams, and we get to buy some first round playoff gear this winter.

I'd imagine there's a couple of guys other orgs could find interesting who might be topping out in ours. Bergolla, if he ever gets back on the field. Whatever noise last offseason that made Getz put Duncan Davitt on the 40-man might still be there. Tony DiPino and Colby Shelton are dudes. We're not going after Tarik Skubal, so guys from #8-15 could be enough to get that type that looks like a tweak away from being something, or whatnot. Tomoyuki Sugano or Robbie Ray shouldn't really cost anything. Detmers or Jose Soriano should be the tier right behind Skubal, but Artie Moreno may think they're another Anthony Rendon away from glory, so they might be asking the Sun, the Moon and the Stars for them.

Of course they did. It was a great effort, but this guy has to log a couple of innings in a Sox uniform, even if it kills him.

Play reviews involving NY teams should be done in Chicago.

I've never heard a version where they said they had to "convince" Reinsdorf. It always sounded like Murakami took them over their initial budget, they did JR the courtesy of letting him know, along with doing a bunch of homework to answer any questions he might have. One of Getz's first interviews on it, he said that Reinsdorf was on board before they got very far into their meeting.

They chose Zack Collins, swing hitch, and all, and they were never able to work with him to correct his mechanics. Getz was probably looking at Jacob Gonzalez not upgrading his own mechanics and decided the infrastructure in place wasn't equipped to do the same work with Konnor Griffin.

Cool story, bro, but the guy found his folded up sweater on top of Resurrection Mary's head stone the next day in the version I heard.

I read this article twice, through. It seems to talk about flying space ships around the moon about as many times as they mention "persuading" Reinsdorf, which is zero. Is there another article that covers how Getz and Boyer approached Reinsdorf on their knees, beseeching him to allow them to sign a baseball player, or is that somehow inferred between the lines?

I guess we can blame his recent, bad outing on this.
