I really think the Sox leadership group finds the fanbase contemptible. Just making the playoffs and getting destroyed in the ALDS isn't enough.

Nope. The Sox had trouble with other playoff teams in the RS and that was proven true when they got curb stomped by Houston in the ALDS.

So when Conforto and Manaea go elsewhere can we officially ride Jerry and Hahn out of town on a rail?

How about Andy Gonzalez and Jeff Marquez? Zach Stewart?

Nobody is going to give up a 2nd round pick for 1 year of Conforto. I also don't think the Mets are interested because of the vaccination stuff in NYC. If he wants a 1 year deal he's going to have to wait until after the draft.

That's probably the best deal he's going to get at this point. Sox should circle back.

If they signed Conforto instead of Graveman/Kelly we'd all be bitching about the bullpen.

Given how the Sox have approached this winter, they don't deserve to make the playoffs. They will though.

I want to hear reports about where Crochet is velocity wise this spring.

Verlander is back.

I think if they get Montas, they're right there. I like their offense more than the Sox right now. They're going to absolutely rake.

Take out Bellinger's MVP season and then Bellinger/Kimbrel is actually realistic. That is an outlier.

Yes. /thread

We're not talking about Cease's pornstache enough.

I think that if Crochet remains on the Sox, he's going to stay in the bullpen. He won't start unless he gets traded.

Given that Crochet is probably not getting out of the bullpen with the Sox, I think that's an ok deal. Expensive, but I could live with it.

Anyone think Yogurt could be a legit 2B option by mid-season?

Colas has some work to do against LHP. Looked bad. EDIT: I know he hasn't played against live pitching in 1.5 years.

Who is 94? Basabe?

Dickman sucks.

Sheets GIDP.

lhp. He rakes against them.

Easy power from Cespedes.

May is out until July with TJS.
