Just now, SoxAce said:
He'll be more remembered getting knocked the f*** out by Jose Ramirez at this point.
That is true. At least that's an argument unlike the other s%*#.

Depends on your definition of "marketable."
Guys flips off fans, appears to lose concentration of the field, has embarrassing off the field headlines and can't stay healthy.
If that's your definition of "marketability" I admire you.
Nobody gives a f*** about athletes baby mama drama. I can assure you of that. Flipping off opponent fans is still legitimately hilarious no matter how many times this website tries to make it a thing. Get out of the soxtalk bubble.

Oof. Getting rid of the only marketable player on the team. The franchise gets dumber every day but it's of little surprise at this point.

So does that mean the Sox opted-in?

That's 150 innings we won't get back....
I want him back. Much ado about lack of leadership in the bullpen early last year. This dude then comes in and pitches in every game the last 2 months. At least has to be difficult for Kopech to complain about a hangnail when he turns around and sees Shaw behind him.

The bar is low enough that seeing no Royals connection or promotion from within has me open minded.
He was in the Royals org in that sweet spot of the 2014 era.

An assistant coach for a college team?

Anderson has never appeared to be the clubhouse cancer that this board so desperately wants him to be. That's probably the reason.

God, I can't fucking wait for the Eder vs. Burger at-bat.
Burger may fall off a bit, but predicting he will be on the Windy City Thunderbolts seems a bit dramatic at this point.

I'd argue that Burger on the Sox was not an MLB player. He became one on the Marlins.
Lol yeah he wasn't a MLB player after putting up 1.5 war in 88 games. This is some next level copium to try and justify being wrong on the trade. It's okay.

It's one of those trades that everyone knew was terrible at the time and somehow it still ends up worse.

The Bulls are having a players only meeting. It's night 1.

Soxfest is 85% middle aged men in Fake XXL Jerseys standing in line for autographs all weekend.
That's not increasing overall viewership or youth interest.
Honestly, if you are the type of fan that enjoyed Soxfest, take the money you would have spent and go to spring training. The vibe at Camelback is everything that is good about fanfests, plus good weather, and no lines.
I haven't actually been since I was a kid, but there were plenty of kids there. I know because I made friends going

Hey Harry, I enjoy following h.s. football. I know not many on here care but I did have an observation about BR.
I watched last night's doubling-up of Rita and I will give coach Q credit. I can't think of any level of football where having two QBs trade off (each get a possession then immediately switch for the next possession) actually works. It's always a disaster and the coach finally picks one.
Rice has used the two QB shuffle all season and last night it actually worked better than it has all season. The two BR QBs each bring something different. I'm still not a fan of two QBs but coach Q did get this team to the point the two QB system appears to be OK, pretty efficient in fact of late.
They got a playoff berth and considering the difficulty of BR schedule, the team could conceivavbly start peaking with that strong running back who is headed to Navy and maybe make a run. Probably not but the h.s. kids played hard for Q last night for sure. Rita got hit with a sledgehammer. I actually think Rita prolly would win a rematch.
Fraser is coming to my town for something in January and I hope to hook up with him and meet him and talk BR and UNC. We have some friends in common. Peace out, sorry for boring non h.s. football fans but I enjoy following BR's fortunes every fall/early winter. I'm actually going to be in town next weekend and may check out the Rice playoff game, prolly not if it's at some weird location and not 99th and P.
Have to imagine Rice is still better than most playoff teams. Any CCL team is going to play a gauntlet schedule. Certainly wouldn't want them as your "easy" 5-4 first round opponent.

An owner is willing to disrespect their GM by publicly announcing personnel decisions and goals without consulting the GM, is generally a bad thing in every way possible. Chris Getz proved he was ok with this on the day he was hired. Kim Ng just resigned from a job because the owner decided to undercut her.
What did Jerry announce then?

I'm pretty confident in Giolito coming back. I guess that means Reylo too.

That kind of thinking is fine and dandy but I'm going to continue to get irrationally angry about unfounded rumors. AAAARRRRRGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's an unfounded rumor that he's unqualified for the job?

Kim Ng will not return as general manager of the Miami Marlins in 2024, the team announced Monday. Although the club exercised her team option to return for the 2024 season, Ng declined.

Probably 0 chance of happening I realize but I'd love to explore a lower aav over 3 years with the plan to move him to 2b after a year. 27-30 million but that's likely non-starter.
