I imagine Hancock would cost a lot more than that.

Yeah, this rotation has a 2, two 4’s and two 5’s. Please upgrade (responsibly).

Goodman would cost a ton.

I’m sure there’s some truth to that, but I don’t think it’s some common thing.

Is this Benintendi’s best season with the Sox?

Jesus dude. It’s baseball, injuries happen. It sucks big time, but you really need to find someone to blame?

Because the price will be extreme

What no

Sure. Or not. I have no idea. I already said I thought Vargas would’ve been a better pick because the all star game is about fun and a homer is more fun than a single. But I also just really don’t care.

The classic 101 mph slapped single. Enjoy your hill death I guess.

Not a hill I’m willing to die on by any means, BUT…they clearly made this all star game even more of a wacky spectacle than years past. And in the spirit of that, a bomb of a home run is way more fun than a two run first inning single.

I think the “oh gosh” part was PCA. They were doing an in-game interview with him while he was in centerfield.

I don’t disagree with any of this. I guess the point I was making is that I don’t think they’re one SP away from being serious contenders, so I’m good with standing pat instead of making shortsighted moves. You’re playing with house money this year. With that said, I definitely don’t mind the Detmers move since he wouldn’t be just a two month rental.

Good breakdown. If they’re committing to being buyers, I really think they need to add more than one SP, which seems very unlikely. I just don’t see this current SP group holding it together down the stretch.

Talking in memes vs talking like a normal person still matters to a lot of people.
