And Texas overtakes Florida as the USs leading COVID count.

Why, so we can pad our IL stats?

We are talking about 46 ABs covering the entire season. How many ABs are we talking about in the last few weeks? Is the definition of a small sample size.

This is what happens when there are too many pitchers on the roster.

They said yesterday that "his legs were barking" and that he has some soreness, but not injury. Also if it were October, he'd be in.

Everything changed after 2016. This ownership group also hasn't done themselves any favors with the fan base.

That's one funny way of saying, I didn't get my way, so I am taking my ball and going home.

It depends on what you mean by "plan". Yes all teams trying to maximize the level of talent and depth they have in a system. No, there will never be a team who is 2-3 players deep in starting level talent on a roster. Between the limitations of a 26 and a 40 man roster, it is impossible to keep this depth of talent. Once you get past your starters you WILL see a significant fall off in talent. Once your back ups get hurt you WILL see another significant fall off in talent to your #3 depth guys. Yes, everyone wanted the Sox to add more players in this off season, but realize at one point the Sox started their #7, #8, and #9 OFs on their depth chart. Literally no organization in professional sports will have good player at that depth.

Actually that leaves out Adam Engel who was also hurt during that time period, as well as Leury Garcia who played a ton during that stretch.

Good lord, that is some solid revisionist history right there.

What? Seriously? Kenny was the problem there? Not Ozzie demanding an extension with a year to go on his deal and then ditching the team with a few games left in the season?

So they did issue this tweet AFTER the 4-6 week tweet, I just don't think they ever actually followed up with the next one about the new timetable.
