  1. I remember outlining what I felt were worst case scenarios where he lost the team, but I didn't imagine in my wildest nightmares that he had Monstar like powers to steal their abilities. Again, never seen anything like it.
  2. With his season last year it he is already proven guilty until he can show otherwise.
  3. I recall nothing like it in my baseball lifetime. And I will swear to my grave it all happened because of TLR. It just lines up so perfectly.
  4. If Vaughn is such an uncoachable guy WTF did we pay him 6 million dollars to come back this year?
  5. Then you trade him in 2 or 3 years when you know better what you need vs literally everything now, including starting pitching
  6. Right now we need starters. You can always shove him out there if he gets beaten out later.
  7. I mean, no there is no shame in being a back of the rotation starter in 2025. That is a super valuable resource, especially if they can go 150ish innings a season. But he has to a little bit less hittable to get there, and I think he can. He's never going to be great, but I can squint and see him yoyo-ing around a 4.5 era on an annual basis.
  8. Davis Martin is another guy who has always been a mid to back of rotation guy at his peak.
  9. I mean seriously. To pretend that this was somehow the worst situation in the history of baseball to succeed at is laughable. With all of the crazy stuff that has happened in 125 years of the game, the Sox are not special in having a bad team getting a GM fired. In fact, you might be shocked to learn, that is usually why GM positions are usually open.
  10. Could they do worse if they tried? I am not sure.
  11. When your player development is among the worst in baseball and you are scared to play your own kids, this is how it works.
  12. When you are rightly convinced that you have to carry the entire offense, it isn't ideal.
  13. Just let Robert be Robert. Maybe you want certain guys to work counts and walk as much as possible, but it is not working for Luis. Clear his head and let him use his athletic ability as best he can.
  14. Yeah, you hope for breakout seasons, even better if it is from key guys and/or young guys. A good portion of this roster is playing major league baseball for the last time ever.
  15. My favorite part of the Detroit area was always Canada.
  16. Somewhere Rob Mackowiak bowed his head and said a silent prayer to the Patron Saint of Out of Position Fielders
