Honestly, while not a fan of Schiff, I would rather see Steve retire.

Nah, that's not why you are a 🤡

C for what they got. D for what they gave up to get it.

The fact that Getz doesn't think more people need to be replaced should actually be a positive in the clubhouse.

He's maybe our Gary Cole.

Sox fans had 100% overvalued the value of the 2nd and 3rd tier guys.

I WAS RIGHT AND WILL NEVER TIRE OF TELLING EVERYONE ABOUT IT!

He screams fluke to me.

The Angels are morons.

As a package, the Sox did what they had to do. They upgraded the 25, and didn't give up any of the vital pieces going forward. I will definitely quibble with the amount of returns, but they did improve for 26.

Ever since the humodor the ball doesn't fly like it used to, but you are right that the dimenions there are massive, which makes for a ton of doubles and especially triples.

We are pretty much doing the minimum to keep fans from burning the place down, with an eye on 27 and 28. It's a bold strategy, let's see if it pays off.

Panican.

Unless something changes very quickly, Getz still seems to be operating like this year isn't a go for it year. He's saving his bullets for next year, or the year after.

It is actually 5, not 3, I was wrong.

The last CBA also said you can be sent down only 3 times in a season, otherwise you have to go through waivers to be sent down.

Also I would bet money it is Quero being sent down unless he already has two send downs and would be DFAd, and even then maybe.

So the price here was somewhere between Bonemer and Carlson FWIW.

A kick in the ankle is much better than a kick in the balls. Thank you.

D'oh!

WaIt UnTiL tHe NeXt GuY!!!!

from hot dogwater with floatees in it, to lukewarm dogwater, at the catching position.

Look, I don't even mind that people who have opinions, it is the ones whose opinions changed based on if the player is inside, or outside, of this organization. Adams didn't go from being a potential replacement in the rotation to expendable, just because the payee of his check changed. He was always a guy coming off of TJS who probably wasn't going to be any help this season.

Let me speak your language here. Poop, even if it is controlable, is still poop.

Honestly this entire deal was kind of a we don't think too much of these guys, maybe someone else will kind of deal. I think the Sox placed a premium on the IP aspect of Castillo, which with a staff held together with Duct Tape and TJS isn't a bad thing, but it really hinges on of Castillo is fixable, or in inevitable decine.
