  1. What if it were for some one like James Wood. Then you still have Quero and Lee with outfield of Wood, Robert and Montgomery by August hopefully. To me Quero seemed to have better skills behind the plate anyway, although not sure what the numbers say.
  2. Of course he's drawing interest. Probably has a good investment manager
  3. When Benintendi was signed, he was supposed to be a complimentary player to the core of Abreu, TA, Robert, Jimenez, Moncada, Grandal, and Vaughn, not a cleanup hitter. Most of those had contracts with individual seasons at higher rates of pay of Benintendi. The idea he was signed to be a center piece of the Sox lineup is a rewriting of history. He was supposed to be a solid bat at the back of the lineup. Obviously, it didnt work out that way
  4. How you going to name your kid Ben, when your last name is Rice
  5. Elko is an older prospect but this is only his 3rd full pro season
  6. Nobody is trading for Vaughn. Romy's probably a better option at this point
  7. If Montgomery was hitting .250, he would probably have been called up
  8. They had a stretch in May when they went 8-4 last year, of which the last two games were shutout wins
  9. I don't remember enjoying a single game last year. At least this team is entertaining at times
  10. What the H with all these interviews, trying to watch a ball game here

  12. 94.4 is about at the median for major league starters
  13. Clevinger made his return to the mound for the Knights last night. Reportedly his fastball was up from earlier in the year, averaging 94.4 vs 93.2. Three innings, 3 K, 1 R https://www.fantasyalarm.com/player-news/3623346/mike-clevinger-returns-to-starting-in-triple-a/ https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LfYP1BjkD6w&pp=ygUfSGVyZSBjb21lcyBzdW5zaGluZSBkZWFkIHN0dWRpbw%3D%3D
  14. I'm drinking the Vargas kool-aid. He used to hit with his back elbow tucked. I believe that was the actual source of his problems. Even when he was struggling he was still showing good discipline at the plate. Only time will tell but the fact he's had immediate results upon making the adjustment indicates it may not just be a fluke. These guys are at such a high level to make the majors whether they are stars or flameouts, I think the difference is really that miniscule that simply lifting that back elbow could be enough to bridge the gap. At any rate, not much to be happy about as a Sox fan, so I'm just going to enjoy the small victories when I can
  15. At least move Vaughn down to eight if you're insisting on continuing to put him in the lineup. No reason he should be hitting in front of Baldwin, Vargas or Soa at this point
  16. I meant whether the text is legit or not is inconsequential. All that is true either way. No one with any other option wants to sign with the Sox and the Sox have hit rock bottom. We already knew Harper liked the Sox and got left hanging in favor of Machado, who of course they failed to sign
  17. Rojas in that scenario could still back up 2b, 3b and in effect 1b, since you can put him at 3b or 2b and plug in Vargas or Sosa at 1b with Beni in left and Fletcher or Taylor in RF
