  1. You of all people should know that Comiskey is to Reinsdorf as Jacob Marley was to Scrooge ! If you want I can explain why Bill Murray plays Reinsdorf too
  2. Right the Comiskey ghost is akin to the Jacob Marley ghost who is the 1st ghost to visit Ebeneezer and just as misery and greedy.
  3. Jerry Reinsdorf has a Press Conference and says he was visited by the ghost of Charles Comiskey and the Ghosts of St. Patrick's Days Past, Present, and Future . Signs Conforto, trades for Manea and Montas. Sox win the World Series. Bill Murray plays Reinsdorf in the movie version. And Tiny Tim Anderson, the World Series MVP, says God bless us, everyone !
  4. Man, you're so right. What was I thinking?"
  5. Burger 2 run HR S. Sheets was the guy on base with a walk.
  6. Dom Smith HR but Giants keep pouring on runs.
  7. Outside of his arm, I have no idea how he fares defensively.
  8. Or John Lennon singing "Nobody told me there'd be days like these. Strange days indeed, most peculiar Mama.
  9. He could be right in his prime now especially if he's 100% healthy. If he had more bat to ball skills Adolfo would be something special. He has Eloy type power.
  10. I can't find it on my computer here in California. Must need the ESPN app or something.
  11. People like us do it to all players. We all have different ways of using data. For example the most popular thing I see regarding Sheets is that his AB's were cherry picked. Yet I have never once seen a person who said that show me ,with data, that cherry picking AB's existed. Now if they wanted to say he's LH and most pitchers are RH therefore he has the same advantage as Vaughn does against LHP only on a more frequent basis I can accept that.
  12. Or it could mean it's his 1st appearance of the spring ? Looking for a silver lining.
  13. Adolis Garcia ends the inning by sliding by the 2nd base bag on an attempted steal. Needed a bigger base.
  14. Lynn out Garvin ALston, Jr. 2019 37th rd pick toiled at Kanny last year. 6.60 ERA 1.74 WHIP.
  15. Garver another bomb against Lynn.
  16. walk, wild pitch. rangers radio broadcast on texasrangers.com . Just slide the slider all the way to the right to get the live game .
  17. And a double to Brad Miller. Batting practice against Lynn now.
  18. This is all opinion based on nothing but their "profiles" ? At least Gavin got in some super productive PA's last year where he didn't strike out a ton (22.4%) and supposedly doesn't walk much (8.9%) Also .556 Slg % against RH's . So a RH guy like Burger on a mostly RHH team who is the same age as Sheets, with an extensive injury background fits in better because we have him longer so we can figure out if the Sox can send Moncada back to 2nd base . Positional versatility is not being able to play just 3rd base. 1st base and DH don't count because any big guy should be able to play 1st and DH. A dime a dozen really ? I'll keep that in mind since a LH power bat with a decent K rate and walk rate is so easy to find. Maybe you can scan some MLB rosters and find a few for me who did what Gavin did in his MLB rookie season. I know he's got skeptics but he did every thing he could short of getting a bunch of AB's to prove he should get plenty of AB's on a team starved for LH balance and power. Vaughn is the RH bat who needs the playing time not Burger to move Moncada to 2nd base. What's your next suggestion, Kimbrel replacing Hendriks as closer and Liam being the setup guy ?
  19. They spent because they still expect to make a profit . I pretty sure I heard that because of the strike season ticket sales were down and there's been no push in spending to excite the fan base into buying more season tickets. If attendance, ad revenue and other sources of income suffer because of this it's going to show up at the trade deadline and the same thing that happened this off season will happen again next off season.
  20. I didn't say that because of arbitration. I said to anyone shocked that the Sox are too stupid to know when they will be perceived as petty and cheap. I don't think they are a stupid FO. I think JR is a bottom line and profit oriented kind of guy and anyone who knows that is never shocked by anything they do regarding saving money.
  21. No he meant 26 because he said April is like an extension of the offseason and after April it's expected the rosters go back to 26.
