Didn't read all the posts, but the only speculation regarding Aaron Judge and the Sox that makes sense is speculating on how many homers he hits against them next year so I'm just gonna assume that's what all these posts are about.

Previously sold it previously? Learn to write Bernie.

No, they're permanently 26.

I like Darke/Donovan better than Strong/Holden but I guess the American guy gets all the US games.

Christine McVie, 79, keyboardist and singer for Fleetwood Mac. Well before my time but one of my parents' favorite bands and they rubbed off on me a bit.

It's very possible that the analytics people were doing valuable work and were just being ignored. Don't necessarily have to clean house.

Maybe he resigned a position at Starbucks so he could re-sign with the Sox.

I've never heard of the position before. Seems like it was made up to create a promotion for Tosar instead of a lateral move.

Bringing him on for Seargant today instead of using Wright would have been good as well.

This is 100% hindsight, because I don't think anybody lobbied for Jose to get a QO, but this contract suggests that he likely would have declined it.

I was looking at the table again and if Wales beats England, then Iran needs a win to advance, so they may not be parking the bus unless England gets out to an early lead.

I hope you mean Abreu and not ron.

Have we heard anything definitive about whether there is an option? I don't like a straight 1/12 without the possibility of keeping him around if he does indeed bounce back.

If Eloy is going to be playing more DH and less LF, that should help his health.

There have been 5,142 regular season Sox games since 8/2/90. Frank Thomas, Paul Konerko or Jose Abreu played 1B in a 3,915 of them (76%).

Unless someone was willing to trade for Eloy or Vaughn and massively overpay, we would have regretted bringing him back, so I think it's one of those things that was really a lose/lose proposition.

No. /thread

Giolito trade forthcoming:

How much input does the manager get on decisions like this?

If someone offers more than $5m for Cueto I wouldn't match it, but if he can be had for that much I'd certainly snag him to be the swing man.

Transaction: Clevinger signed Out: Martin In: Clevinger SP - Cease, Kopech, Lynn, Giolito, Clevinger RP - Hendriks, Graveman, Bummer, Lopez, Kelly, Crochet, Diekman, Lambert C - Grandal, Zavala IF - Moncada, Anderson, Sanchez, Vaughn, Gonzalez, Burger OF - Jimenez, Robert, Colas, Sheets, Garcia

They're gonna win this game and f*** up their draft pick, aren't they?

Luke Fickell headed to Wisconsin

Reynaldo's value should be really high right now. Not giving him up for someone like Kepler. Joe Kelly is who I'd give up for Kepler.

Now I wish Leury had been the union rep in 2021.
