Just tuning in but holy moly the slider looks on

Well you hope Cease + an acquisition or two allows you to slot him 4/5

It has less to do with the recovery than it has to do with still Kopech ultimately being an unknown, PLUS coming off surgery. Let's say Kopech came into 2019 healthy. If the Sox had designs of competing, penciling Kopech in at the number two or three spot still could be a recipe for disaster. Now add in, say, a 10% chance he doesn't come back right from surgery on top of all that and now competing and going into the season with Kopech as your #2 or #3 starter are likely mutually exclusive ideas. Maybe he comes back and is immediately a horse. Well, then great. Now you have extra depth. But you absolutely cannot count on that. From a roster construction standpoint he’s a backend starter until he shows you he’s not.

Are you making this up? BP has him at -3.7 Framing runs

Oh joy

Elite is a strong word

Hell of an AB so far

He quit because they told him his kid couldn’t hang in the clubhouse every day lol

Kelly’s missing by alot

Nah nobody thought this team could win. Laroche was infinitely more frustrating.

Gimme Collins for Yolmer after they walk Anderson here

Oh okay

That was the one

Please Eloy

The rangers refusal to bring a lefty for moncada in big spots this series is strange

There’s a reliever in there somewhere

I said he gets a feed that isn’t delayed...

Because his feed isn’t delayed.

Why does anyone throw anything other than curveballs at Leary’s ankles

He was hosed if they went home

Their payroll is 80 million. It’s like 20 million next year. Whooooooooooo cares

Every single one of those guys suck too

One of those games

What more do you expect out of the Rule 5 draft? They have gone that way. It doesn’t work. They need guys to be bodies that won’t get in the way of actual talent when it’s ready to contribute.

He wasn’t a very good hitter in his prime and age he caught up
