7.3 versus 7.5 just give it to him. On fact he's made way more than that for the organization tell him 8 and keep the change.

As long as teams are making huge profits they should just say yes to every player's offer.

The war crimes accusations make me nervous. It seems like a case is being made for NATO to get involved directly. Ukraine isn't large enough to contain a Russia versus NATO battle. It will spill across borders.

Thank you for the research.

When TLR retires again they will name Katz as the interim manager making him the first manager in baseball history without MLB playing experience.

I believe they are two possibly three injuries away from being non contenders. But they are deep in the pen.

Sox are never in the playoff race and TLR announces his retirement in August. They are sellers at the deadline.

For some reason I kept watching and expecting them to win. They just never seemed to figure out a better game plan. I actually thought this could be a positive and have them coming out more focused.

You have haters on this board? That's crazy!

No. /Restart

We wanted competition. It's what's best for baseball. Winning the division by ten would be horrible.

$3.89 regular unleaded here in Texas. I have a 36 gallon tank and use mid-range. Paid $5 a gallon in southern Illinois this week. $140 fill up.

Wow!

Wtf is this start??

Illinois, you're killing me here. Texas had a moment there with a minute to go.

Everyone in this organization is a joke who couldn't get a job with a little league. Half the roster is AAAA or worse. Third place in the division and multiple embarrassing moments from LaRussa is all we should expect.

It's an answer he gave to a question. Asking the same question the day before or five minutes later mighty have elicited a completely different answer. It may also be a hangover from the CBA that will go away with time.

No. I don't see Madrigal back on the roster. I also don't see three at one time. I'm guessing two and that is enough to cause a bad stretch.

Every player has potential. Predicting what their season ultimately looks like is obviously a guess. Some would look at a player like Mercedes and pick the start of the season guy and claim we have a HoF guy stepping in. Others look at his finish and say we have a AA+ guy there. I'm trying to split the middle but I'm leaning pessimistically. So I'm predicting something like last season where we lose starters for significant stretches of the season (I believe it's realistic). I believe we have a couple key players on a huge upswing in their development and a couple in that inevitable decline. At best they will blame. I also believe we have a manager also in his declining years guiding them through it. So optimistically top 10, a few injuries away from bottom ten. I think after watching about fifty Sox rosters I know what one looks like. Was last year's roster a top 9? Close. Is this one better? I don't think so.

Isn't that what we want? Competitiveness. We don't want players just going to contenders. Plus we don't want teams making huge profits. So big time contracts to go to losing teams instead of chasing championships.

Who cares about his profits? He should spend it. This is why players get screwed and wind up with such a small percentage of the revenue. Fans don't want teams to "over spend". Not overspending leads to those astronomical profits.

After two starters go down and our weak ass system is exposed, we'll be bottom suckers.

Is anyone concerned that the other division teams just aren't making huge improvements. Fans are hoping for more competitive races. It's bad for baseball if the Sox run away with the division. Me neither lol

That was a to surprise.

Tony gained another year of experience. He's getting better and better.
