I think a top 100 prospect was offered, but that the offer still wasn’t good enough to Getz. Your argument was that a top 100 prospect wasn’t even offered. I disagree with that.

Active? Dude hasn’t flown to the west coast at all, as long as I can remember. For as much as the Sox hated and ultimately dumped Benetti for doing other gigs, Stone had as much, if not more vacation time or time away from announcing than I remember Hawk having just before he retired.

And who promoted him undeservedly? The worst owner in baseball, mostly because Getz was a loyal peon. It always starts at the top. Sh1t only flows downhill.

Yeah, consider keeping him down another year or two or three since your sorry ass won’t be able to build a .500 team for that long. Let’s not waste his years of control, doofus-boy.

His wrist finally healed!!! Maybe he will be tradable? Bustintendi hitting homers is the greatest thing that has happened to this team lately.

You still haven’t answered my question. Until you do, this is a pointless discussion. No starter the quality of Crochet with a dirt cheap contract for 2.5 more seasons was traded at the deadline, period. You can’t compare apples to oranges.

Yep, he has always had a good arm. The glove is the problem. Nothing wrong with being a LF with a cannon arm, as long as he hits, but he has to hit or else he’s worthless. https://www.mlb.com/prospects/2020/dodgers/miguel-vargas-678246 Benintendi will be gone eventually, or just DH his sorry ass until his contract is either eaten or over. Perhaps he somehow hits next year and is tradable? Not getting my hopes up though…

Yep, #1 Dodgers prospect and MLB’s #46 in their top 100.

Haha, I love this post. So true.

No, Touki just likes to have great outings in between his usual bouts of zero control, just to f*** with us.

I have no idea what he passed on, and neither do you. Once again, what deadline starting pitcher trade are you comparing Crochet to, because no starter as good as him, as cheap as him, and with as many years of control as him was traded at the deadline. ???

What pitcher the quality of Crochet along with a cheap ass contract for 2.5 more seasons was moved at the deadline? Oh yeah…

You don’t know this at all, so why are you posting it?

He’s trash. I’ll still take the Twins prospect that needs TJ surgery over Vargas.

That’s why Getz should have traded him. He started breaking down after the deadline.

A random Sox fan could do better than anyone employed in the Sox front office by sheer luck.

The Orioles are a much much smarter and better org than the Sox. It’s like night and day. How many years of bad defense in LF, injuries, and months on the IL did it take the Sox to realize Eloy was a DH?

I don’t agree on Robert. The time to trade him was last year’s trade deadline, but that is using some hindsight. He still has time to go off at the start of next season… hopefully. I agree that Crochet should have been traded, even with his extension demand that didn’t help things. Now, with Crochet apparently hitting the wall at 120 innings, it might scare off some teams next offseason, but some team will still bite on him.

True, what a dumbass. He could have been traded to a contender like the Dodgers, and they probably would’ve given him the extension he wanted if he didn’t demand one. Afterall, they gave one to Mr. Glass-Now.

Yay, let’s further kill Crochet’s trade value for the offseason!

LOL, it is a bit weird. It’s like sitting at a circular table and facing away from the speaker.

You’re right. I edited it.

Looks like Crochet has hit the wall. Sox should put an end to his season.
