Mmmhmm

Bold of you to assume Rafael Ortega won't be back.

Well at least Sox fans seem to be on the right path.

I need a crying react.

The inability to hit a fastball is a huge redflag. I wonder if the back injury is a part of it, or if that is separate.

Why?

Well neither has actual baseball, so there is that.

I do agree with the idea that the best Dodgers trade includes guys who are already on the active roster. Pages/Miller/Stone make a lot of sense in the structure, but I really would like to see DePaula be a part of it as well

Burke hadn't pitched since 7/11. It would be nice to know why.

If this it the top of the card, I would be pretty happy with our deadline.

Get Elderly Teammates Zestfully

I quit doing this when TLR and Getz were hired.

50 games under .500 for a full season is 56-106. The Sox would need to play .500 baseball at 29-29 to win 56 games this year, or win 2 more games in a 58 game stretch than they did in 104 games so far this year. Why highlight 56-106? This is the current record for the most losses in a single season in Sox history.

50 games under .500. In July.

Well the Sox are doing their part by trying to stop Texas from being a seller.

Dead by midnight.

Can't wait for the next AA reliever.

The problem is they all have decent to great bullpens, while we technically have pitchers in our bullpen.

I wasn't even going to bother saying it again, but yeah.

Yeah it's one thing for teams to say they can't add dollars, but Fedde is so cheap, even small market teams don't have excuses.

We have three years of control left. It's a chance worth taking when his peak season is just one year ago.

Yeah it is going to be much harder to be "in it" at the deadline, not add, and miss the playoffs and explain that to your fanbase, versus adding and missing out. At least you tried kind of stuff goes further.

Sure but guys like DiPoto and Dombrowski exist, so that's fine.

I know we are in the stage of the deadline where it is all about who teams WON'T deal, but eventually someone is going to look at the last half of the season, his current playoff chances, and blink.

Because we can see what the other 29 teams paid for their classes.
