Clarkin's greatest contribution will forever be "the bessss" anyways.

Yea Clarkin is not going to be protected and won't be picked either. Obvious decision for the Sox. Stephens I'd imagine they will call up in September and they won't expose him again. Hopefully the Sox can move Narvaez and a couple relievers before the deadline. What's the deal with Zevala, he's injured? According to that chart linked above he's Rule 5 eligible this offseason. If the Sox can move Omar and he's healthy seems prudent to give him a cup of coffee.

Brew Crew reaction is mixed at best. They aren't happy giving up Kodi.

This is a pretty amazing resource, wow. Looks like Cease, Kopech and Adams will need to be protected, and then not much else to worry about, next offseason will be tougher. Wonder if they will let Zavala go...

There's no 40 man crunch. Davidson, Palka, and Smith are all DFA or "traded for cash considerations" types. So is half the bullpen. The 40 man crunch will happen when the club is good and the prospects have matured, like the Yankees this year.

Probably not but another arm to dream on.

Going from Biloxi to Birmingham, short trip at least.

That K rate is pretty sexy tho for a 22 year lefty in AA. Seems like a guy that can get whiffs, regardless of how hard he's throwing.

Seems like a fine trade. Glad the Sox are going for high variance types. Plenty of depth in the minors, swing for the fences.

it's fucking hot on the west coast.

great thread, as noted, most impressive thing about cease, at least imo, is how he's been able to stay healthy and ramp up his workload.

oh no hit him in the armor, ffs

inscrutable talent really

that ball was kilt.

how the fuck do you swing through that?

TA needs to fucking do something here.

you owe me a coke.

do not believe what you are seeing and hearing.

great defense. good job.

hey maybe hold the runners...

it's incredible how much you have to learn about shifting and playing in space you're not familiar now if you're a middle IF at the big league level. Cannot be easy on these young guys that came up at the exact time the shift became prevalent.

almost feels like if TA was more aware they could have had him at 2nd and tried for 2.

that's a really nice play from Yoan.

fucking poo wholes getting lucky

davidson sucks, see if anybody contending wants him for a lotto ticket if not just non tender him or dfa before the offseason
