Vaughn has played first and did not ace the audition. However Gavin's dad will be hitting him grounders this winter so his ceiling is significant. His streaky hitting is also somewhat of an issue as well as second-half fatigue. People have pondered his conditioning. Yet he is one of the Sox go-to guys it seems. I like Vaughn but let's not talk him into being an MVP.

I like paying millions for the veteran relievers who cannot stay healthy for very long.

It was those 25 cent beer nights that ruined Tony.

Congrats to Tony LaRussa = Manager Of The Year.

Jose Josh Vince Elvis Cueto are now free agents. I would keep Elvis and Cueto.

Vaughn is the only one I recall with four-hit games, however I think he has reached his potential and he is fairly one-dimensional.

Replacing Jose with Vaughn is a bit of a downgrade but I can see clearing the old vet with the young cost-controlled guy. Grifol talking to Grandal leaves me wondering. It seems clear Grandal does not have much left in the tank.

The hilarity is having a weak offense with all the DH's and little LH pop. They get an F in roster construction.

In three months or so we will be talking spring training after Feb 12 Super Bowl. Go Bills.

Another asterisk on the board.

We have a comfort level with Elvis that does not involve Josh plus there are a number of other infield candidates not named Leury. Spots taken by Engel and Josh need to be upgraded by legit MLB talent esp if two spots are going to Leury and Sheets not to mention old grandad. They might have room for three new faces and they better be good.

Oscar is one the few things we have to look forward to along with the new field general. God forbid if Colas and Luis play like stars next year.

Everybody follows the Royals. Better than the Sox.

Ironic with all the DHs they are short on lefty offensive beef along with the concrete gloves. Kind of amazing. That should be on Hahn Solo's resume.

I think the wild card in this will be Pedro mentoring Yo and Looie.

We kept hearing but not seeing good things about Haseley. They might take him back.

Mike Tosar come on down!

NIU football did this with Dave Doeren from UW now at NC State, sniffing around after Nebraska. These types always preach teamwork but their God is spelled USD.

As Royals coach Senor Pedro boned up on analytics and won over Ned Yost on the need for shifting. So he should be a bridge for the old guard in Sox.org to join the new century. Good luck.

It is I just meant that he might be crippled. He gets paid regardless.

My guess is that Grandal is a PUP candidate. They might need a veteran catcher at this point. I don't think Joe and DBo got an invite for next year.

Spoke to his homeroom teacher from Cienfuegos. He was the best speller in class and always cleaned the blackboard. Would often steal signs.

I thought I heard his family is Cuban so maybe he will be a good mentor to the Cuban corps. I am psyched for Colas to break out.

It was an awesome rebuild. Stupendous. I do like managers named Pedro though.

Not to be rad but maybe start a search party for a new 1B coach.
