  1. Are you thinking this is during the day or just during games? I can't believe many player's with spouses are working a job and needing day care from the team. It seems like it's to make it easier for the spouses to attend games.
  2. Two other scenarios. Day care could be required by the CBA. It would be defined exactly how it would work. The Sox are voluntarily doing this. Then they get to set the rules.
  3. You can hire and build facilities for you employees fairly easily. Now hire and build facilities for guests who may, or may not, need those services. I agree, it is possible. Consider this, the Yankees are on a road trip, this is just one stop. What are they doing the rest of the time? Why would the league offer day care in former team stadiums but not others?
  4. Even better, the guy that complains that there were no rules now complains that there are rules and he has to follow them?! ?
  5. So they are leaving the kids in Chicago while he's playing in New York? That doesn't make sense. So he's now a visiting player and wants to have the same benefits as Sox players? I bet the Yankees allowed him to immediately use their day care. It's an employee benefit. He's not an employee. If they can show examples of other visiting players being allowed to, then I'll join the chorus of boos. But for following the established rules? I'm not going to criticize my team. The guy rips the organization on the way out the door then two weeks later "hey I know the rules but could you do me a favor and break them for me?"
  6. In retrospect he should have gotten out of Dodge and had a better career. Like most every other failure in the organization (managers, players, front office) he was once a promising talent.
  7. https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-pipeline-2023-midseason-system-rankings?t=mlb-pipeline-coverage&partnerId=zh-20230816-1003656-mlb-1-A&qid=1026&utm_id=zh-20230816-1003656-mlb-1-A&bt_ee=e0Y37EmAYXcmo1Y9o36HANpSLYQ6%2BGqU2AmM%2F0m5%2FMhOHa%2FAoHR6fmYrIKQus2re&bt_ts=1692189925553 Currently 20th, top of the bottom third from bottom of the bottom. One quote I found interesting because I forgot how good we once were. He's been fooling people for a very long time.
  8. If you are wondering how me managed 7 seasons and why he stayed https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/35206047/record-setting-utsa-qb-frank-harris-return-7th-season
  9. Kind of a cool story. The guy is entering his 7th season quarterbacking UTSA https://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/article/frank-harris-espn-18296756.php
  10. Another day, another embarrassing moment for Hahn. I can't wait for tomorrow's edition.
  11. He fooled most of the baseball world a couple years ago. Thankfully he gets exposed every day here as the fraud he is.
  12. It's really going to depend on who is the 2 year olds biological father.
  13. They should be talking about his HoF induction not text messages.
  14. After fifty plus fucking years following this team and tens of thousands of dollars or more going to games, merch, MLB packages I expected more than one damn WS appearance in my lifetime. But that's all there will be. Not hyperbole, just looking at the facts. Go another thirty or forty years of this s%*# and tell me how you'll feel. How about a couple more championship windows that end like this sandwiches between 90 loss seasons. The troll is JR and the crap he's pulled on Sox fans.
  15. And I dislike hearing my favorite player's name get dragged through the mud even if it's unfair. I think it sucks. You guys don't think it sucks.
  16. Come on JR loyal? He's not loyal to players or fans. Disagree if you like. JR is loyal to himself, his shareholders, and a fewfront office staff (not scouts in particular) but that's about it. Second point. I don't want my team making player decisions based on their dogs and I'm not going to criticize even a scum bag, whiny ass, owner for doing it.
  17. Agreed, two of the worst. I'm offering an analogy. I don't think the Marlin's did anything wrong by not thinking about a player's dogs in a trade. Others questioned it and I'm explaining my reasons.
  18. Who you defend Hahn if he said they took less or didn't make a deal because of a player's dogs? How many pages would that fill in the fire Hahn thread? Mark had an offer and the team didn't match it. No loyalty towards a franchise player who would wear a Sox cap in the HoF. Then after making him a generous offer to come to Florida the next team includes him in a trade. Again, no loyalty. That seems accurate. Jose is in an Astros uniform. Again no loyalty towards a player who worked his ass off for the club.
  19. And still a better owner than JR.
  20. There are no loyalties in baseball. And it wasn't trading just him, wasn't it like half the team for half a team?
  21. I'm not certain we would understand if Hahn said he took less than he could have gotten in a trade because of a player's dogs. I remember wondering since they had the ban why he would have signed with them. He also should have fired his agent for not negotiating a no trade to areas with a pit bull ban. I do wish he was getting more votes for the hall. He's easily someone who I'd like to see there.
  22. Enough to be included in the 400 page book and one of only a couple items from the book to be mentioned in the article. That and the color of the tiles in the stadium. So you are probably correct.
  23. I'm wondering how many games he cost us. Probably more than 10. JR did make me regret TLR leaving. It actually did get worse. If they kept Ricky we'd probably be talking dynasty. At least multiple playoff appearances instead of cleaning house.
