For some reason this post brought this scene from Walking Life to mind…

Yea - it just drifts that way temporarily until we win a World Series again. ? These blow ups of doom and gloom are so predictable and pretty hysterical to look at from a birds eye view.

Wait… I forgot… no chance we’ll resign Rodon. The guy sitting next to TRL said so. Have long thought it most likely that we address the rotation with a trade… we almost always do.

Public Service Announcement: For those unfamiliar, Soxtalk is highly bipolar. When we are a signing or a trade… the pendulum will swing back to the “World Beaters Unite” sentiment.

Maybe we can trade the Mariners for Ray in 2025 and the Rangers for Gausmann in 2026!

The Dodgers are probably holding tighter to him that I hold onto my uhhh nevermind.

It was a piss poor performance and hopefully next time we get a 2005-esq revival. Sans the complete games since that’s never happening again in this sport.

Can you use more capital letters so that people can actually ready your posts?

Yup.

Dudes gonna pitch way more than that.

Me too brother - keep the faith.

Nope.

We’re not used to having a good team.

Look what the wind blew in!

6 years… this might be one of the first position player contracts that is for an appropriate length.

It’s just in comparison to Correa. Facing Biaz > facing Correa.

Waaaay better than Correa. Throw a party. I would have hated watching that asshat cheating scumbag pretentious pea-brained entitled defective morally bankrupt talented shithead bum 19 times a year.

It’s always been too sensible that they’re likely to sign a right fielder like Conforto, trade for a starting pitcher or resign Rodon, and trade Kimbrel for a second baseman or sign a lower tier option. That is what has always been most sensible and it’s still what is most likely to happen. Conforto + Gausmann was the pie in the sky option IMO. All of this other nonsense has been just that. Scherzer and Semien… sure. ?

Stroman and Correa would be some coop for the Angels… not to mention Thor.

Correa, Trout, Ontani, Rendon… oh my. Maybe they should get some pitching.

Those teams are all fucked too. The Rangers are playing the Mets in the 2023 World Series and there won’t be baseball next year.

Well - directly comparing them further - Schwarber has more home runs in 92 less games played over their careers. They both have cases which can be made.

The idea is that Schwarber finally tapped his potential and the results of last season demonstrate signs of what is to come.

There’s a picture of an illustrated chicken for you to find in another thread. That said, I totally agree about the trade… but that horse has been beaten bloody already a few times over.
