Free Tim Elko (Back in Jail)
And let's be honest here, who cares how fast your 1B is? They need two step range, and should be bashing the ball out of the park. The last thing you are worried about is them stealing an extra base. Unfortunately with Vaughn we are getting none of that.

I can't imagine my professional existence revolving around making this disaster sound interesting to watch.

Free Tim Elko (Back in Jail)
He's actually only in the bottom third according to Fangraphs from last year. 18th lowest out of 43 hitters with 300 or more PAs in the 1b category. Of course Gavin Sheets was worse.

Not giving him a single MiLB AB and then also stuffing into a position he had never played before is negligence. Granted, we will never know if this missed his development window, but nothing has changed with him since the changes in the organization. In fact he has gotten worse pretty much across the board since they happened.

Free Tim Elko (Back in Jail)
It is absolutely fair to say this. The game is loaded with 4A players who bombed at the major league level after destroying the minors. The game is not littered with teams coming off of 121 loss seasons with a perpetually declining 1B who is currently literally the worst player in the game of MLB. Even if you don't turf Vaughn, it might be worth just finding a way to get him some days off. Dude is a trainwreck right now. If it's Elko, cool. If it is someone else, great.

Nah, Kyyle is the just right amount of not needing to get lectured by Jerry’s superfanboy about what he should and shouldn't think based on your hypocritical interpretations of Jerry’s actions vs everyone else's. Quit projecting your anger at those who don't fall into your line, as their anger. This is your anger and your problem, and literally no one else's.

Maybe for Jerry? Looks like that is the 4th highest salary for the Sox this year.

Sanders to Cleveland. Probably wishes he went undrafted now.

Eh, we need any and all skilled positions covered. It's 6 years of control if you think you can do something with him.

This is the same s%*# that has happened for years under different managers, which tells me it isn't the managers.

Because only one company seeing an individual marketplace as profitable doesn't necessarily make it a monopoly. If a town only has a Wal-Mart or one grocery store it doesn't make it a monopoly. That isn't how that works.
