  1. That’s not so bad for now, Grandal, barring injuries will catch I predict 110 games. Sevy does have surprising power.
  2. We finally have pretty good defensive outfield. Sheets and Jimenez, just DH and hit the ball out of the park. I can live with Colas possibly hitting .200/.220 while he learns the pitchers. Solid outfield play can take this team to the next level. Starters seem ok, Vaughn looks good at the plate. Timmy will be Timmy, no worries there. Can and Will Moncada and Grandal be what we’ve seen so far?? Elvus needs to step up offensively. Sevy looks like an ok backup Bullpen will be the deference.
  3. The biggest little word the English Language is IF. IF this is the real Moncada of 2 or 3 years ago offensively and the same goes for Yaz, we could be in for a very good season. The least would be is a Wild Card team. BUT once again, health will real be the answer.
  4. We’ll see but I’m sticking with him for now. I have no choice, I was asking for the Soxsign him.
  5. Only 4 games in, nobody gets fired 4 games in. He’s a pro and he’ll get better. Abreu bats sub .200 in April/ May, would you bench him? 150;
  6. Disagree so far. You may be right down the road, but right now it looks ok.
  7. PS, and this is tongue and cheek and just kidding around. Everyone laughed at me when I said and can look it up I said “ why not sign Andrus to play second “ when all other options were gone.
  8. Our starters all look like studs at this point. The bullpen scares me at this point. Even with Hendriks, because we don’t know when he returns how effective he can be because of his treatment, I’m worried. Also, some of Pedro’s lineup’s and batting orders worry me at this point, but I’ll give him a chance. Ozzie wasn’t a genius his 1st few game’s either.
  9. Fix Yasmani’s defense? That’s what I was talking about.
  10. He may be having a turn around year at the plate, but defensively we will suffer.
  11. Why do we always give up hits to .190 hitters with 2 outs
  12. 13 million for a wife beater?? Gives up 4 runs before i can sit down
  13. I just have one thing to say, maybe 2. There is no way the Sox will just Luery loose a seat the rest of the contract. If they can find a trading partner willing to take some or all of his contract, then there’s a possibility of moving him and opening up a spot for someone younger
  14. In various postings I said why not sign Andrus? I’d rather have him out there every day than Garcia, who would be out there 80% of the time if the rookies failed. It’s a one year deal and if he sucks, he could be cut by the all star break and the cost would only be 1.5million. Now if Sosa or Gonzalez get a chance in Spring training to shine and one of them does, than you can trade Garcia for pitching machine or an extra massage table. Is here a better fit than Harrison? Maybe, although Harrison had a semi decent 2nd half and is a real 2nd Baseman. It’s easier to go from SS to 2nd then the reverse. We’re not going anywhere this year anyway so WTF, Lets see what happens. I’m more pissed about the Clevinger than this signing. Sosa and Gonzalez could be better off with 500 at bats in triple A/double A for a September call up. I’m 70% in favor of the move. Garcia has to go if we find a team stupid enough to take his contract.
  15. One maniac on a website said in the power rankings the Sox should be ranked #1. I belive our bench and 2nd base is why the predictions are so low. I believe though if by some miracle we stay healthy, and that’s a long shot we can win 87 to 90 games and sneak into the playoffs. But the odds of staying healthy are incredibly low with the porcelain dolls on this team. These idiots get hurt running to 1st base.
  16. Here’s the number of wins predicted by Vegas. If these numbers are correct we’re not in the playoffs let alone win a division. The Clevinger debacle, no real 2nd baseman, Hendriks unfortunate medical situation I’m sure are factors and in my opinion a very weak bench FanDuel Sportsbook: 83.5 wins DraftKings Sportsbook: 83.5 wins BetMGM Sportsbook: 84.5 wins BetRivers Sportsbook: 85.5 wins Barstool Sportsbook: 85.5 wins
  17. We still suck at 2nd base no matter how much we avoid the conversation that Rick Hahn is a terrible GM and over the last 2 years has put the Sox at the bottom of Off Season Improvement and farm system rankings.
  18. Nate Mondou is a lifetime minor leaguer just picked up by the Sox. College and Minor League numbers above average and if invited to Spring training should be allowed to compete with Sosa and Gonzalez.
  19. But getting back on track of this forum, TICKETS. Not going to attend as many games as last year. Cost, traffic, potetentially a .500 team I'm planning on the "hi mom bobblehead game and maybe July 4th, my birthday!!!!
  20. ok, your memory is better than mine, so we got a piece of s%*# like Kuechel instead of Wheelr, as i said, always outbid and have to take leftovers
