The horror.

Highly HIGHLY doubt they are thinking of this anymore after how horrible Shane has looked in his rehab starts. Have you watched him pitch at all over the last three weeks? It has been UGLY.

Yea… only see it if you could bring in someone like Miller… which I think is a long shot.

All year he has struggled with RISP which fits his three true outcome profile. Additionally he has been in a slump over a 30 game period now whereas he’s striking out at a 30% clip and is only hitting a bomb at about a 1 in 30 ab pace. That isn’t getting it done from the cleanup spot. So, while I’m still a huge believer in this kid, I do think it might be a good time to move him down to 5th, 6th, or 7th in the lineup… and move someone else into the cleanup spot who can help us improve our team LOB numbers. We finally saw it today with Grich in the 4 hole. What say ya‘ll?

Would have to assume so. Early in the game he had also worked a 3 - 0 count, was given the green light, and promptly grounded out to first.

Obviously he is and I can’t believe this is even a serious questions… are we COMPLETELY forgetting that he wasn’t sent from the show back to our Arizona facility in his rookie season to overhaul his work at the plate? He’s just an Adam Dunn like hitter with defensive value - so people will always hate on the kid. If he would grow into bringing more situational hitting value ( which I believe he will in time ) then look out!

Rickey’s Will’s boys don’t quit!!!!

I’m caught up to the 10th with NY now up 1 - 0. After they scored it boils my blood hearing chants of “Let’s go Yankees” from the stands in OUR park. Disgusting. Happy we shut those fuckers up and made that poor little kid have his dreams crushed two games in a row.

I still am greedy and am targeting 93. Still think we have our hottest streak ahead of us. Imagine if they do indeed bring in two starting pitchers, a catcher with a nice RH bat, and call up some arms to help in the pen. It could really inject life into this already lively bunch and give us the assets necessary to really get on a big winning streak for the first time all year. Really want to see a 8+ game winning streak.

Before taking hi8is jr to see Spiderman I was able to watch the game up until the 4th. Midway through the movie saw it was still tied going into the ninth… Then the internet died in the theater. For nearly two hours I had to suffer not knowing the fate of this important game… by the time we left the place and my service cleared up, my breath was taken away to see we won again in extras. Back home now watching the replay from the 4th onward. Good times to be a Sox fan continue and as I’ve been harping since our “first big test” in June - this division is coming down to the wire and will be determined by how the inner-division games go. Would be MASSIVE of Getz and crew could toe the line of protecting the farm, adding for both this stretch run and post season, while also improving our weaknesses for the next couple of years. Big four days ahead boys and girl… LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! JUST FUCKING DO IT - DONT LOOK BACK - AND GET ER DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sox listing of Carlson is the second highest rated prospect on that list behind the Dodgers Hope and a Mariners spec that can play second and right field. With Seattle not looking for pitchers, I say we’re sitting pretty if we do want to make a big splash. And yes - the rankings are negligible at best but high level, it’s something to take note of.

I’m really tired of lineups that don’t include Sam and Colson in them. Both of those guys are everyday players in my book. Grich, Acuna, and Everson… prove me wrong!

I know you.

I hadn’t spent much time in this thread until I was ready to contribute - it’s pretty shocking how many of us are expecting Ray and Stephenson.

That has a ring to it!

Sox get Holmes, Stephenson, and Ray. Another route I could also see them take if Holmes doesn’t work out is something like Miller from Seattle for Chase plus prospects conditionally with Luis Arraez in the Ray deal. While everyone is focusing on Detmers from the Angels, I’m hoping they also take a swing at Kirby Yates. Starting five becomes: Burke, Martin, Ray, Holmes / Miller, Kay Pen: Taylor, Yates, Hicks, Newcomb, Hudson, McDougal, Dominguez, Schultz, Fedde Lineup: Antonacci, Mune, Vargas, Colson, Stephenson, Beni, Braden, Meidroth, Peters Or Arraez, Antonacci, Mune, Vargas, Colson, Stephenson, Beni, Braden, Peters Bench: Acuna, Grichuk, Pereria

Yea but the angels are pretty dumb.

Wow - dude is totally fresh

I think we can finally give an assessment on this poll and the answer is YES… IF you’re going to get at least two starting pitchers and a catcher AND you’re keeping the farm strong. Those are some tough constraints and if it’s not able to be done, then get as close as possible to it but do not sell the farm.

I seriously doubt Detmers is moving anywhere, let alone to our Sox.

Thats what I thought initially when the Teel injury happened but everyone said Smith’s defense is a major work in progress.

The only time I’ll condone talking smack toward will is when he takes Sam out of the game.

⬆️ Davis wrote that bible verse on the mound before his start tonight. Not the way he drew it up but wow. What a flipping game.

I’m so tired of this type of horseshit.

and I still won’t get a dime of it. 😆 ( green )
