Sox win; split series @HOU
I'm satisfied. If the Bullpen was doing a consistent job, then I'm made happy. Colas from what I understand has soaked up every bit of hit coaching they threw at him for going on 2 years. He'll be able to make adjustments probably.

Sox win; split series @HOU
Why would anyone hate this level of performance? This was what we all signed up for years ago. Expectations are not a bad thing

The split doesn’t matter. The state of the bullpen matters.

Giolito is slimmer though, which matters!

What do Sox want, expect, NEED from Colas this year?
He seems outwardly as a guy that stays healthy. He is a tank.

What do Sox want, expect, NEED from Colas this year?
Need: Good enough defense to keep the first baseman on the bench. A Vaughn rookie year at the plate Expect: a typical rookie learning the pitchers and plate coverage. Average defense with some upside.

ST- 3/27 and 3/28- Sox at Cubs
If he wasn’t 110%. That appears to be the standard often used.

Time to give this Sox team a chance
Shallow group of starters. Even if you like them, use the realistic projections. The Sox need some young arms that can step in, these guys don’t have the outward appearance of an iron staff. My worst nightmare is considering what the Sox are gonna be giving up at the deadline trying to keep the season going at all costs

Time to give this Sox team a chance
Tatis is the Sox’s Tatis. Colas we didn’t get by dumping an old pitcher to a desperate, silly team. Other than that, he is.

- Hawk did not retire
Benetti’s homer calls are not much better either. The way he forces the home run yell high volume and over pronounces consonants at the ends if words.- Hawk did not retire
Loved everything about him other than his home run calls later in his career. They became contrived and over the top after he added the “Yes!”. I liked it much better free form and spontaneous. Homers became cringe time.- Leury Garcia released
That’s just a reminder not to sleep on Leury haunting this team forever. Hanser is fine of course. Unless the karma police get wind of Sox fans turning the page too soon!- Leury Garcia released
I felt sorry for myself. And must hang onto my fear and depression until he is out of the organization. He’s an injury away.- Moncada hurt during WBC
I'll live . Have a great weekend.- Moncada hurt during WBC
I don't disagree on that point. Only that his valure as a player on this team would be based on his bat, not third base defense. And for some reason, third base defense is regarded as sacrsanct in the Moncada discussion. Way overrated.- Moncada hurt during WBC
Moncada's salary balanced against his actual production is a reason you couldn't trade him for anything. There, gave ya another. April 3 my man. - Hawk did not retire
