By June people are going to be fighting to get that seat!

See Rick. See Rick try to run a baseball team. Rick likes to sit at the kiddie table. Rick sucks at his job. The end.

Somehow, this is all the fault of the Village of Bedford Park. I’m certain of it.

Any chance there are “Sell the team, Jerry!” banners at ST?

Can you imagine if a car company said “we’ll make good cars once people start buying them”?

There is no spoon

Three out of the last five years, the largest contract they dished out was for a guy that plays less than half of the games in any given season. That is f’d up on so many levels …… still trying to process this.

More than zero = “bigger role” Thanks for clarifying that Rick.

All this talk about getting the Royals scraps - are we sure KC didn’t try to hire him and HE chose the Sox? I know most us here would say “sucker…” but, objectively, Sox are probably more attractive than the Royals.

Near as I can tell, it has something to do with Mike Ditka and dorks

But repeatedly criticizing a bunch of strangers on a baseball forum is … what?

I think the number is something like a sales cap of 200,000 vehicles sold. Vehicles (individual models, not brands) over that do not qualify (which include teslas and some GMs I believe). I’m not sure if there’s a hard cutoff or a typical convoluted phase out. Also, the $7500 is not for every EV - I think the actual number is tied to battery capacity and other things. But, like I said, your point in general still stands.

For the record, Teslas don’t qualify because they exceed the production volume quota. That said, I get your point 100%

Same here. I didn’t watch this year (got my updates here) because after supporting the rebuild I was so fed up with their incompetence last winter, but it looks like they may double down and take it to a new level. Sheesh. Actually, with as secretive as they try to be, I’ve become convinced JR deliberately changes course if news gets out because he always wants to be the smartest person in the room. I think it’s entirely possible that, at least in principle, they had decided Espada was their guy and even JR was on board. News leaked and JR says “they think they’re smarter than me? I’ll show them! Rick we’re going a different way.” That would fit being such an arrogant ass.

Look on the bright side; for the next two years you’re guaranteed Leury isn’t going anywhere and we get to watch Moncada struggle as he makes $42M!

This idea that either the Sox had more injuries than other teams or they lost more important players or that they had worse luck has to stop because it’s not true. They’re a crappy organization in a crappy division. Bubble size below is lost WAR Plenty of teams suffered way worse and either made the playoffs, or are still competing, and not in a crappy division. Twins got hit harder than the Sox. Look at the Rays and realize they’re still in it - that’s what good organizations can overcome.

“Ding Dong, the witch is … “ Wait, is that too soon..?

At this point I don’t think we want Eloy training anyone how to run into hard objects

and TWTW. This organization loves their senile old fools …. sheesh

Until proven otherwise, I’m thinking flavum called it two days ago

They’re going to pull some stupidly aggressive Kenny shit and lose in the wildcard, aren’t they? Just so they can say “everyone in this front office wants to win”.

Sleeping like a baby. If you’re not then your AA was not in line with your risk tolerance.

Glad you’re having a good time Tex!

Option C : Not the bullpen. Don’t spend a crap ton of money there.

OK, now I think he’s just making lineups to intentionally piss us off
