It's certainly not going to help the perception of the team with female fans, that's for sure. Then you have the whole Anderson mess as well.

Someone like the Giants with nothing to lose and lots of financial flexibility because of missing out on so many first tier FA targets and then the whole Correa mess. In a way, Michael Conforto is basically the equivalent of their Jimenez already.

13,794 was the attendance yesterday/this morning in China. Despite ALL the disasters of the past two years, the Sox fans are/were still supporting the team, because they've got a respectable number of season ticket holders sadomasochistic-ally hanging in there. Well over 32,000 when the weather was beautiful on Saturday. Actually 17th in MLB attendance, the top of the lower "tier" between the successful and largely unsuccessful teams at the gate. But it would be shocking if they didn't settle somewhere in between 22-26 by the end of the season if these trends from the first two weeks all continue...especially with the brutal schedule and unpredictable April/May weather.

At this point, I'm willing to turn everything over to Paddy and just throw everything into international. You can also bet I would throw money at extensive scouting in Taiwan, Korea and Japan as well. Our DR pipeline that was ruptured by KW/Wilder has never been put back together after well over a decade. Time to actually fix that situation once and for all if they want to be a viable franchise moving forward, because the vaunted Cuban Connection is finally drying out.

https://www.milb.com/player/fernando-tatis-jr-665487 Tatis seven homers in 33 at bats. Back next Sun. Sleepwalking Padres and Dodgers both average teams in early going. Both need a jolt of electricity. https://www.milb.com/video/fernando-tatis-jr-s-six-homers?t=playerid-665487 Already beat Benintendi's projected season total in less than one week. https://www.mlb.com/news/fernando-tatis-jr-works-out-with-padres-before-return-to-games Returning Thurs vs. DBacks.

And they missed now on Cease. To be fair, Kopech and Vaughn aren't clear cut cases either way.

Yet that hasn't screwed over Rays Guardians Brewers Rays Orioles... it's the character and competitiveness/sense of pride in the players you target.

Still paying Kimbrel lol? Pretty soon Ruiz/Diekman list of salaries to players not on the roster will be higher. Obviously Hendriks not at the back end makes a massive difference because roles and expectations become unsettled and unpredictable... most relievers prefer order and established roles but that's impossible with this collection current occupying the pen.

He's a survivor/politician give him that much. That said, hard to get fired by Sox unless you're a completely useless front office exec undesired by other team...then you simply get reassigned disappeared within org but keep drawing checks regardless.

Making those in 40s and 50s feel older like Super Mario Brothers movie and Air lol.

David Coverdale/dell..

Where's Jay Cuda with the latest bullpen carnage numbers to depress...?

Someone meant Mateo as a journeyman shouldn't be hitting like Rutschman on the series. He did the same thing last year, too. Ran wild on basepaths as one of fastest big leaguers.

Then the other alternative is basically White Flag 2/3.

Cubs three games up on the Sox even... so much for the window.

Rodon and Cueto? Cease? Katz contributed to Kopech injuries?

Especially after showing up big time yesterday. Now Lynn and Giolito to get through.

Colas injured due to wet grass... lost his footing.

Extension?

Have we spparently survived Colas/Clevinger self-induced social media idiocy today due to no game? I'm too sexy Right Said Fred I'm sexy and you know it, etc.

Same school as Owen Miller...

Who will quickly pass off the blame to an underling or naive Millennial intern. Teflon.

Sayonara. Need Larry David/Curb Your Enthusiasm wheelchair-bound kamikaze pilot in assisted living to take him out.
