Very curious what a Crochet and Robert package deal could return, if any GM has the balls and prospects to make it happen, assuming Crochet doesn’t hit the wall at some point.

Poop.

It doesn’t hurts as much when you realize the owner won’t spend on good free agents and Robert won’t be here when the Sox are good again. No way is he going to be extended if he is awesome. And then you also have the risk of getting nothing for him if his injury woes continue.

Yup. Get back to me when our positional prospects are leading their respective leagues in OPS. A team stat does nothing for me in assessing individual prospect performances.

You don’t think a .733 OPS is good enough from a lefty “power” bat?

Agreed, which means it will be another blowout, cuz baseball.

There really is no news, other than Getz being open to trading everyone on the roster including Robert. The last specific news on the trade front was that the Padres were interested in Crochet.

A lightning fast DFA. Woodford will be selling either cars or insurance soon.

In hindsight, man that would’ve been ideal.

Grifol and DeJong must not realize that they are stuck in a public toilet with a broken flapper that people just keep crapping in anyways.

Maybe he knows he’s getting traded to a contender? Better things for him are coming. ?

I was just joking. The no punctuation was killing me. You may be right. But that team also got screwed by bad luck. How often does 90 wins not win the division or WC? I wonder what the stats are on that?

I thought this was a made up quote as a joke. It’s real lol. He actually has the players using his “flush it” line now.

I just noticed the author of the article. Is that Bob’s relative? ?

And sadly, a tiger doesn’t change its stripes.

A good GM that went after big targets and an owner that was willing to spend money. We have Getz and JR. ?

That is. Another interesting tidbit that is sometimes forgotten about like that one is that Terry Francona started his coaching career in the Sox minor leagues. @Lip Man 1 has all the Sox trivia posts to learn from.

And the same ol’ owner, that truly makes the decisions.

“Here’s all the bad tier 3 free agents the Sox wasted their money on rather than reeling in a Harper or Machado and Wheeler…”

Please stop hiding these amazing threads with your admin powers. I’m sure I missed that thread titled, “String Which WestEddy Ruined by Being Smarter Than Us”. ?

Amazing how someone can’t see the forest for the trees.

Amazing how you b1tch and moan about people misrepresenting your past posts and then you come up with this pile of sh1t post that is a complete and utter lie. No one ever said those players would make the Sox competitive this season. People wanted to acquire guys like that solely to serve as flip candidates. Now why don’t you update us on the no shutout streak stat again? ?

Why is that a ridiculous notion? His offseason was as epically bad as the Sox now are. He is going to set a record with this team that should have been unattainable. A random fan off the street could have had a better offseason than Getz did.

Imagine defending a guy who failed to develop players in his previous role (the very purpose of his job) and whom one of the worst owners in two professional sports then promoted to the most important job with the team without even interviewing another candidate.

Dear god, I didn’t realize how accurate @hi8is’s post was. I thought it was a joke post but it was REAL!!! Amazing story-telling. And absolute CRINGE by Schriffen. Stone is sitting back there thinking, “who in the f*** hired this clown to work with me? That Benetti dork was bad enough as it is.”
