Engel to IL (Again), Foster down, Burr/Wright Up. Burdi DFA
Wright has really dominated in AAA and he just had such a bad few innings in our first ST game that I ignored it which is why I'm actually intrigued here. It's the "hey that may have mattered" signal. Burdi man. Seeing what happened to his brother and how bad he has been post TJS, just seems like they weren't capable of doing to their arms what they were capable of doing to their arms.

We will see what this team is made of…
this is a good way of putting it. It's crazy though because the sox are definitely the team that's out there where I still don't really know what they are. The offense has had a number of different faces and succeeded without power and failed without power, and now failed with power and maybe soon succeed with power. The starting pitching has been dominant, the bullpen has never all been in a groove at once and the manager has not had a "ride the hot hand" philosophy. I could see the sox succeed in playoffs with just a dominant rotation and some timely hitting because I've seen them do that. I could see the offensive talent we have find a groove and take over and a dominant bullpen emerge where the starting pitching fades. This team does have a number of ways to make it work, but it also gets in funks where the mechanics of what's succeeding aren't quite in line. overall, I still think the lights turn on and TA leads off games with homers and eloy is back and we roll and have a good chance at the CS.

I also don't think this is the NBA where it's like "okay let's try harder". I don't necessarily think it's a switch, I just hope that a number of our players get hot at the right time.

I mean the 2010 giants, 2017 yankees I didn't even think that hard.

I mean the sox may not have a switch flipped, but lots of world series teams or teams deep in playoffs have a flip switch before and people didn't know the switch would flip. They are good, they have a lot of good players, but are in a bit of the doldrums which are incredibly frustrating and there is a chance they never shake out of it this season which would suck. But I think they will.

NFL 2021 offseason thread
see 2019 season. I think Georgia just couldn't look past fromm's rookie year where he seemed like he was going to be the next murray/stafford. He never really got better and it's such an easy offense to put the numbers he put up in. You always have incredible runningbacks and offensive line, and he's in the SEC East. I don't think anyone really takes it from the 2019 LSU tigers, that time was incredible, but hard for me to believe they aren't in at least the playoffs in 2019-20 if they didn't stay with Fromm.

Minor League Catch-All 2021
Nice validation for some performances that felt like they stood out. Mentioned it a few times, but sosas numbers since 6/1 are excellent and consistent. Seems like since he adjusted he’s taken off. AA is tough and Kanny was tough for him, so if he hits the ground running that’s encouraging but not necessary

Looks like pats second half was awful. Better build that endurance now.

Rey Lo Looking Good!
His FB has good velo but his stuff doesn’t look like it’s moving that differently in Baseballsavant. The exception is a better dropping curveball. It’s all working now and he has better control but I’m still in wait and see mode

The thing is, this stuff doesn’t come from bulls or pels. It comes from agents wanting to brag about the number. We heard he signed before the trade package
