Not his first year. They were awful, 5-11. That eagles team was unwatchable.

Not really. With as few innings as he can do this year, it doesn't really matter. Whether he starts and goes 3 innings each start for part of the season or is a long reliever for the whole season, he just needs to stay healthy hy and build the innings to get a startersoad next year.

OK. Doesn't change the fact that he will only have about 80 innings. Whether it's bullpen, starting, majors or minors, he is only going to have a reliever like load.

That would work. That about the right amount of innings. That a long layoff until next season though. This all predicated on him staying healthy which he hasn't shown he can do.

Does it really matter with this roster? You can bet that Getz is going to call the shits just like Hahn did. Next year when the kids are up for the season they'll have a new manager.

If you read the article, that's a possible plan again. It doesn't matter how he gets his innings. He is going to be limited to reliever number of innings.

Good luck.

Yes but having a high leverage reliever whose name means choke in English is always concerning. ? Another one of my all time favorites is Chuck knoblach which means garlic and he stunk like it.

Oh. Soxtalk will be talking about this team. Don't you worry.

Great article, thanks!

Lot A is where I park. Most have an entrance to a sidewalk that a car will fit through.

I've seen Springsteen at GRF. Maybe it is just a hassle but I wouldn't blame that on JR.

After the gates are locked, you an still get out by driving down the sidewalk. I heard that from a friend anyway not that I've any experience with it ?

I know it co-owned but JR got the financing and runs it kind of like the Sox. He's the chairman.

Really, the ones I know tell me it all the time. Can't say I read college sports articles though.

In recent years the recruiting has decreased as the major coaches are using the portal after the borderline players have proven themselves at the collegiate level. The amount of possible NIL has also made recruitment easier for the major programs.

Dang JB won't even meet with them. Tells you where he stands. Power play. For once I agree with him.

Doesn't JR own the UC? Why would he be OK with events at the UC but not at GRF?

The 2003 one with the Sox was fun. I would enjoy going again.

Possible but with the incentive of the next contract something tells me his back won't be as much of an issue.

In a contract year I'm taking the over.

There are 62 acres for the community now? This person is countering bs with bs. Looks a little abandoned to me

This is probably true but the Sox do have a history of signing their own pitchers the first time they hit FA in Danks and Buerhle. In general it really isn't good practice to give long term deals to pitchers. Long term being 5+ years.

Yeah, I didn't say it properly. I meant extension as in before the last year. He's done them before but rarely during the last year of a contract. I don't he's ever allowed them to what I was referring to as an extension of a current contract.
