Jack Parkman

Idk why anyone would throw anything else.

Listen guys, I'm as much of a Rodon fan as anyone but I do not trust him to stay healthy/be available in October. When he's healthy he's studly.

Ruiz looks great

Vaughn should be playing in LF everyday and Eloy needs to earn his PAs.

Hanging slider and Eloy ks.

Garcia..........

They need to trade him to someone that thinks they can unlock him. idk what kind of value he has, but that contract is pretty affordable.

Vaughn tells Tony to suck it.

Kopech nasty

The Sox have been a dumb team for as long as I can remember.

He looks really dumb about Cease though.

Kopech's slider is bad this year. Not fooling anyone. He still needs a 3rd pitch.

I believe in the ability to find iOL later in the draft. if they walked away with those 3 guys for their first 3 picks I'd be stoked.

I can't help but wonder if Kopech will be available for the postseason.

I didn't say being totally out of it, the bar is even higher than that. I said I'd consider tearing it down if they're not in 1st place at the TDL. If they can't completely dominate this shitty division, in this season, there's no point. That would make the rebuild a complete failure and heads would need to roll.

Oh hell yeah. Completely agreed. That's something that should have happened this winter. It would have been unpopular though. If the Marlins wanted to do it, I'd trade Eloy for Luzardo right now. I think the Marlins believe in JL though.

If they miss? I think I'd keep some guys and re-structure. Build around Vaughn and Robert. The guys I'd move at the TDL if they're out of it are Giolito, Hendriks and Lynn. Even though it's a hard choice, if they're not in 1st place at the TDL I'd consider blowing it up. Rick Hahn needs to not be the guy making those trades though.

Playing Sheets in RF and Haseley in LF is next level sabotage bullshit. That's about as WTF as it gets.

Are they going to play tonight?

I think that most of the offense will figure it out. The guys I'm concerned about are Eloy. Harrison and Garcia. All else being equal, I'd play Harrison most often because he's a wizard with the glove.

Sanchez needs to go to Charlotte, and then hopefully to 35th and Shields to get a shot at 2B.

Ya I know.

No, but it doesn't matter. Everything could be fine and dandy in 4 weeks, but the vibe given off is one of a team about to massively disappoint. There's an aura of complacency and indifference. They think they're just going to coast to the playoffs.

My overwhelming negativity is just me trying to convince myself that they were never good enough rather than they're just fucking up..........it's easier to cope with that way. Deep down I know they're fucking up.
