The smart play is to hold onto him and hope he has a great an injury free first half. The problem is the guy has done nothing but let me down, so I don't know if I think it's possible.

He currently has two pitchers he is developing now that are even better left handed prospects than Crochet.

Did you watch the clip? He is saying it in a way that they protected him from long term problems. They dialed him back because it was best for him.

As a Sox fan, this is very hard to wrap my head around. Your players...playing?

I don't even understand them "going for it" (at least that's what people are telling me). I guess winning the division gets Jed to keep his job, but this team is, at best, an NLDS exit.

I'll give them Nick Nastrini.

He was never my friend.

Conforto already signed with the Dodgers.

There is no point in arguing about any of this because you are going to have to wait 2 years to see if Getz is a fraud or if he was being held back by the previous regime. Pace yourselves.

Decades? Calm down.

Maybe that's how Getz got Hahn out of his way and got the job with no search at all. Went to JR and told him I can do this for cheaper and here is how.

I remember people being really mad when he got moved and thinking Cleveland was going to turn him into a stud.

No. It really didn't.

I will always wonder (and we will know in a couple years) how "in charge" he was of the whole thing and what he was being told to emphasize. Time will tell.

Getz revamping everything makes me think he hated how things were ran when he didn't have complete control. I guess we will find out in the next couple years if his hands were tied by the previous regime or if he is just as bad or worse. For sure seems, at least from the hitting side, that he is getting guys who have a better understanding of the strike zone, and the two big pieces he just got supposedly hit the ball hard. I know that was a concern a lot of people had (him not worried about power).

Nah. Full steam ahead. Bryant mixed with Ichiro.

This city will love him. Like Kris Bryant but better and for longer.

That’s some revisionist history on Edwin. He was good in 2019 and seemed like the perfect DH for the 2020 team.

His arm will keep a lot of people honest.

If the Cubs do get Tucker, I hope it puts some heat on the Reds to get Robert. Got to keep up.

Well. Times are tough for all of us.

I don't think that's an actual real person, but I love the idea anyway. I'd give him 1/10 or 2/18

Poles has had 3 years to put together an offensive line, which is an eternity in the NFL, and he hasn't. So, not too heartbroken over this.

2026 will be your first taste of what can be possible with all of these changes (both players and coaching/development), and 2027 is when you'd hope you start to actually feel good about the team out there and what they are capable of.

He is doing what Hahn would do. Sign 5 bad players instead of 1 good player.
