Yes and we see players like mike trout not wanting to deal with that process despite being incredibly close to cashing in. Also I think Robert will be amicable seeing as how the Sox let him play in DSL year 1 to maximize his earnings. I know that may have been an incentive to sign, but still was something Sox did.

You are confused why a 17 year old in his first professional season gets off days?

Actually it may be time we start talking about Jake Odorizzi.

Unfortunately I don’t think Wacha is much of an upside play anymore. This upcoming FA class is so terrible. You are right they need to go after The top guys and it hurts there to date aren’t even many Corbin like upstarts.

This absolutely sucks now but this team has unbelievably avoided a streak like this all year despite an incredibly weak pitching staff. I think the path to contention is a lot clearer now than March 1, but will need execution in the offseason. I do wonder if you scratch off a guy like wheeler and go for lower upside but more stability for next year while our arms hopefully develop

Well that is interesting

I like this a lot

Division is terrible but I am scared if they change it it will be market size based so I will take this instead.

You are right, lol I think I was thinking the NBA timeline in my head of only a few months.

Going to bruise my funny bone just to be like Eloy

I’m assuming the pushback there could truly be preparation from the scouting dept and being familiar on where they will be drafting for longer to reasonably deploy their resources.

Promoted today to Kanny. Nice to see!

I am also extremely skeptical.

DSL with MI named Sanchez is very confusing. Sanchez the Y is now 2-4 hitting .304 with an .804 ops. Nice to see Tatis with a dub too

Good. I can see the snag being the hard slotting. But not crazy about the division idea but I get why they don’t want it to be record based as well as am glad it’s not some bullcrap market size Thing.

Wait what happened to Tilson hitting .400 with 40 doubles did that not happen

Are you freakin kidding

He is just an absolute pleasure. Going to be driving through Charlotte in an hour, going to just scream Luis out the window.

I don’t feel like I have a pulse at all on this market, what returns will be and what Sox should do. I wouldn’t be offended if they sat out. I really worry about over paying for control at the deadline.

Yeah this level sucks But after a few tune up games it’s nice to see both power and production start to appear. Really want to see that he will take a walk in this garbage league too, because he’s too old and I don’t want to see him need to create a capable approach.

I think the most unlikely but best case scenario would be him to really turn it on and get an AFL spot this year where they could judge his placement next year. But would like to know things like if he is starting to really feel like pre shoulder again. But if he is in Kanny next year past May it will be easy to read into it that he’s just depth.

Cam Simmons hit 2 HR last night. He was an interesting pick who may still be getting healthy. Hoping he can carry his success over next year.

We should definitely hope Charlotte can make the playoffs as that will help.

Bryan Ramos was 3-5 last night. I don’t quite know if Diaz is hurt or what but he has had a very strong start but has not received many at bats.

Jonathan freakin Stiever. 6 IP, 9 Ks, 2 ER
