Go Broncos and Go Bo! Feels great to have a legit QB again.

Andrew Benintendi on the trade market (duh)
It's not that people don't believe it, it's that it's irrational and stupid and so people don't want to believe it. The payroll is already very low, the priority should be on adding young prospect talent not watering down packages for salary relief.

Please don't include him in Crochet or Robert deals. Payroll is already going to be south of 100m.

Why? We settle for uninspiring returns all the time.

Awful result but predictable.

Anthony from BOS would be awesome.

PHI would be a great match. LAD would be horrible.

Yoan Moncada bought out
Tremendous potential largely unfulfilled.

Fall/Winter Ball 2024
Yeah that's what I don't get....everyone else was saying his swing looks good now and Law was saying the opposite.

Fall/Winter Ball 2024
Law basically trashed Montgomerys swing in the AFL and said he isn't moving well. I was less than thrilled to read that after all the good stuff I've been reading here.

Fall/Winter Ball 2024
That's really encouraging about Montgomery....he also finished the AAA year playing well at the end too so maybe his back is feeling better or he made some adjustments. Any reports of how he's looking at SS in the AFL?

Wildcard Round
Looks like being cheap doesn't pay Elias. BAL swept two years in a row. Lulz

Crochet open to extension...
We need legit positional talent.

Dear Sox fans
f*** you, Jerry

I'd rather have 2 Top 100 positional prospects

Sox trying to fix Vargas
So we basically gave Fedde away for free. Thanks, Chris
-
9/8 Games
Yeah I wonder if we can get some data on his performance vs velocity in the last couple weeks. I'm very encouraged by his play as of late.
-
9/6 Games
Yep I've noticed recently he has been hitting well...dunno about his defense.
-
8/24 Games
Colson 3-4 is great. Need to keep seeing contact improve.
-
08.16 games
Montgomery 2 hit game!
-
8/3 Games
Very nice. Montgomery, Quero and Ramos all having good games in Charlotte also so far.

Clinic No-Shows
That's pretty pathetic to do that to kids who were probably really excited about the event.

Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox
IMO depends on what other pieces were involved. Remember even though what we got was light, there were still two other guys in there which according to some in the scouting community have decent upside. I agree that Keaschall is prolly more valuable than Vargas as a headliner, but MIN would need to still add pieces. Keep in mind also Getz was prolly freaking out trying to add MLB ready bats for the 2025 team because they sure as hell aren't gonna sign like 4-5 FA bats with money so they needed to get someone ready to hit for 2025 on the cheap. They'll prolly hope that by next spring Montgomery has figured things out (or his back issue is better), start him at SS, Ramos at 3B, Quero at C along with Lee, Vaughn at 1B, Vargas in LF, and maybe get some real good prospects for CF/RF/2B in the offseason trades and/or sign a short term major leaguer as a bridge for those roles. If Robert hasn't established more value, he will start at CF again obviously.

Crochet Trade Updates (Nightengale)
Hopefully Chicago. We need at least a pair of Top 100 bats plus another decent prospect.
