Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox
It was mentioned by another reporter, and prior to the deadline. Not just this Twitter account.

Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox
The original talk everyone here agreed on was that he was worth a backend MLB top 100 and a lesser prospect. Even if the Twins weren’t offering a second lesser prospect with Keaschall, I would have been much happier with this offer.

Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox
If this Luke Keaschall offer is true, we have the worst and dumbest GM in baseball.

Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox
So Getz passed on the Twins #5 prospect and MLB’s #92 prospect Luke Keaschall, who is likely moving up the charts with the way he is hitting. He can also play 2B and CF, while Vargas can’t play any position and is 3 years older than Keaschall. Getz passed on this kid for Vargas because he didn’t want Fedde in the division for next season when the Sox will be terrible yet again? Taking away Keaschall from the Twins long-term and giving them Fedde for one season would have been a great trade-off. Good god, Getz is fucking horrible.

Grade Getz’s 1st Trade Deadline!
Agreed. If he gets more than a minor injury between now and the end of the season, you aren’t getting anything for him.

Moncada and Clevinger "returned from rehab assignments"
The majority of that WAR for Moncada was earned years ago. In the last 3 seasons, he has been worth a total of 2.2 fWAR. That’s because he hits the IR with a mosquito bite these days.

Moncada and Clevinger "returned from rehab assignments"
I could see him getting a heavily incentivized contract based on games played.

Grade Getz’s 1st Trade Deadline!
That’s okay, Vargas is 0 for 8 but he’s ready to breakout.

The streak has reached 21. Raise a glass.
There’s messy eaters, there’s Jason Benetti and then there’s John Schriffen.

Zero BA T100 prospects traded at the 2024 TDL
The Sox need to hope both Crochet and Robert finish the season strong and healthy and try to get 3-4 legit bats in return for them in the offseason.
-
Crochet Trade Updates (Nightengale)
Between Jerry’s lack of desire to spend a lot of money on starting pitchers and Crochet somewhat burning a bridge with Getz and the Sox by opening his mouth, I think it’s almost certain the Sox are going to trade him in the offseason.
-
Crochet Trade Updates (Nightengale)
Agreed, except if the rumor of the Sox insisting on including Benintendi in any Crochet trade was true. No team probably wanted Crochet unless he came almost free.

Fire Chris Getz
A guy who was automatically and undeservedly promoted to GM of this team by a terrible owner is the worst GM in baseball. Go figure.

Sox Quote of the Day...7/31
Pedro, you definitely won’t have a career in baseball for much longer... But you also don’t have a career as a motivational speaker in your future either.

Moncada and Clevinger "returned from rehab assignments"
Remember when some thought he would be back in time to play and be traded before the deadline? ?

Royals @ Sox, 7/31, 1:10 PM
Oh wow, I didn’t realize they already beat the franchise’a longest consecutive losing streak over two seasons. Next milestones… “In the modern era of MLB, from 1900 on the 1961 Philadelphia Phillies hold the National League record with 23 straight losses.” “The 1889 Louisville Colonels hold the record for the longest losing streak in MLB history with 26 consecutive losses.”

Chasing Records — 121 losses, modern MLB record
The Sox are going to remove a tiny bit of shame from the lives of the retired players of the 2003 Detroit Tigers.

What Negative Wouldn't We Believe?
It would be more like an angry wank like Harvey Keitel in the movie Bad Lieutenant since he hates Sox fans.

Fire Pedro Grifol
Well, it could take that long just for him to get another win.

Upcoming Site Upgrade
That would be one of the two possible events involving Jerry that could crash the board…

Eloy to Baltimore
If he was healthy and with hindsight, Moncada would have been the better acquisition for the Orioles. The Orioles just lost their All-Star 3B Jordan Westburg to a right hand fracture today. There are calls for Coby Mayo to be called up.

2025 Old Sock Drawer
Gregory Santos, injured again. This dude is cursed. Too bad the trade return for him looks like crap now.

Now on pace for a 39-123 record. The Sox ability to fail is impressive.

No on earned it more than good ol’ JR.
