At what point do teams say nobody is worth $40M per year esp. a pitcher. I generally do not care about money issues but every year we go thru all of this money stuff. There must be other things to dwell on.

Twins do not spend that kind of money. Not their m/o. More like Billy Beane shoppers.

Not recalling a final game blowout like the Braves endured. I think game one in 59 was maybe 11-3 Sox.

Certainly Boras welcomes the Sox as bidders. They had the top offer for MM for a good while

Betts has told everyone listening they he would not sign an extension except with JR. ?

He will recover in time for FA meanwhile he is ours with all the aches and pains.

Schwarbs is ok but more or less another Abreu type. I don't care if he is a Cub.

I doubt he would leave unless having health issues.

It seems repetitive but I thought Rick H said they are looking at DH. Might as well let Collins swing the bat, but that would not be 'all in'. Watching the playoff teams they do not resemble what I usually watch on local TV.

Previous spec was that JDM would not opt out. Lots of good hitter stats out there. The one-tool hitters are not as valuable as they used to be.

I wanna talk about Betts coming here and that second place owner stuff some more.

Jerry is a cost-control guy who wants to win. If you look at Theo and Dombrowski you know that spending is a double-edged sword. Just my take.

Twin pitching not quite up to playoff par. Dobnak leaves game two with loaded bases and no outs down 1-0 3rd inning.

When they blast the fans it is the loyal ones who hear about it.

Which usually points to overthrowing. Coop needs to find some magic for Carson. He is still a bullpen piece due to our lack of depth.

Nova is much needed for his innings. Every year we run out of arms. I think the Sox could get Abreu for 12-13 per but will pay him closer to 15.

Meanwhile the Sox produced three of the 2019 game's best shortstops and racked up 90 losses.

What if Charlie becomes the next JDM.

The guys we gave up for Shark was not a strong move. He was very ordinary and trading for Peavy was as bad or worse. Not as bad as what Dombro signed Sale for. Sale will have medical issues for however long he lasts.

I think 3/45 max.

Cubs heading into the we spent too much money mold. I give Theo one more year before he invades a new city or heads back home.

Joe is going to live in Arte Moreno's penthouse and make a lotta dough. My personal belief is that a lot of people and media have laid off the whole Cub thing since whatever happened in 2016. Now they are a Marquee team ? Good luck and same to NBCSCN.

Jason has a good voice and that is about all. His sense of humor has cured me of comedy forever. I grew a little weary of the home-town bragger Hawk who was a thousand times more interesting, personable and engaging than Jason. Not that I even dislike Jason. I was raised on Ernie Harwell so I find BS offensive. Ernie's only BS: And that foul ball by the dugout was caught by a young man from Gary.

Rendon's sister and adopted Shnitzu live in Hodgkins so this is pretty much a done deal after the World Series.

There are guys who hang on just getting a month or so in the bigs and I suppose we need them. Seeing Leury lead off every day gets a little old.
