  1. You'd know more than anybody here, do you think a guy that has ruptured his achilles twice has any chance of avoiding kinetic chain problems going forward?
  2. A tidbit on Burger from a very in depth Fegan story about the Schamburg squad. And yea, I'm sorta just posting it because I was once a DIII guy striking out against high 80s to a guy named James Deters. He had a wicked curveball and if he hadn't had arm problems perhaps he'd have made it further than he did in pro ball. Anyways, they got the low level, DIII college guys looking to keep a career going, and all sorts at the Carshield league he played in, including Burger, who I guess is looking OK. I might have to eat crow on this one.
  3. lol sounds like they told Stone he better do some ass covering.
  4. I'm with you on all of these points but I don't think Yolmer is an example of them in this case.
  5. He's better than Goins I guess and it can't hurt chemistry.
  6. @Jose Abreu hitting bombs on Soxtalk as well as the diamond. Vaughn is ready to run now. Big paws on a puppy.
  7. If it was up to me I'd tell Vaughn to pick up an outfielder's glove and tell Mazara to pick up his bags. Mazara isn't going to turn it around. His swing is SLOWER than it's ever been, even last year in Texas. Furthermore he seems to be diminished as an athlete. If that's from COVID so be it, too bad so sad, this isn't a year to fuck around.
  8. Awesome, now we can put Moncada on the 10 day IL.
  9. Flags fly forever. The trade worked for both teams. Sometimes you're too anxious to get into a position but it works anyways. That's what happened to the Cubs. They overpaid to get into a position to win a WS but by golly they won it anyways. I mean, who can really complain? Sure it would be nice if they had a longer contention window but as you noted you play to win it all, not "contend for 5 years". They won it all, Godspeed.
  10. conservative approach which will probably lead to TJ is my opinion.
  11. As I said, it's more than possible he's playing with a sports hernia. Is what it is. Go get them Pirates, see what you can do to rest Yoan.
  12. Last night I think they finally got through to the guy that he needs to just come out and let'er rip and throw strikes and hey if he's only got 3 inning in him or so that's fine -- attack hitters and let the chips fall where they will. He could be a quality "headliner" for the Sox down the road combined with Foster: Foster for two innings, Reylo for four and then hand it over to the fire throwers.
  13. I'm happy for Reylo. All we asked is for him to keep them in it and he did.
  14. I had 4 AAPL 470c 8/21 I sold out of last wednesday even... What I'm saying is don't doubt apple and don't doubt this sox club!
  15. Mazara is should be used in econ 101 as the definition of opportunity cost.
