  1. And Smith is skipping starts to rebuild his motion because he is hurting.
  2. Honestly, we should be looking for both types of players. High ceiling OFs and kids with crazy arms and some flaws that we can hopefully fix. We can't draft our way to a playoff birth anytime in the near future. We need to succeed internationally, be able to rescue some strays, as well as developing our own guys.
  3. Giving up on starters too quickly isn't a good solution either, because we need front line starters as well. I thought that was previously clear before, but OK. Also not sure why you are trying to specifically bring other people into things, but sure.
  4. Of all years to waste payroll dollars on a bullpen, coming off of a 41 win season is not it. This is the year for internal candidates and grabbing interesting waiver claims. Wins and losses won't matter for years, but getting longer term control guys will.
  5. MLB minimum wage is 20 times what the average us family makes in a year. It's apples to bowling balls.
  6. The Sox don't seem to be able to get anything out of guys who aren't already ideal players.
  7. It was just reported he had an MRI for elbow soreness.
  8. It's to make the point that MLB wage scale and normal wage scale are obviously very different. Trying to equate it to average Americans is fruitless. Equating it to his peers is how to get proper perspective.
  9. It's a touch over 3 MLB minimum wage contracts. It's nothing in its proper scope.
  10. Liam is everything that is great about sports.
  11. So Marco Paddy didn't want to do that? No one has ever actually answered any of this.
  12. Or draft him in the first place.
  13. He said they are willing to negotiate with 13/14/15 year olds?
  14. And seeing as no one has said who refused to negotiate with the younger kids, we still don't know if the main problem is fixed.
