Where's a wetbutt when ya need one

Man, this is going to be excruciating if we have to wait the whole game ?

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jul 18, 2017 -> 05:15 PM) I have the score from Inception playing the background at work and its making this situation 10x more dramatic.

I like it.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 18, 2017 -> 11:12 AM) I think the Eaton deal easily has the lowest likelihood of regret by far. If one of the pitchers reachers their ceilings or two perform 75% of peak protection we win easy. Sale is a Kopech injury from getting hairy. You really need Moncada to be a star. Sale has been the best player in baseball this year. Basabe/Diaz made up what I thought to be a surprisingly weak backend and their stock has gone way done since joining our Sox. Q trade is basically if Jimenez is as advertised we win and anything else from the package is gravy. This. 87,562 Ninja power up points for you my dude.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Jul 18, 2017 -> 09:25 AM) The Eaton trade was perfect. They got three arms that all figure to have ML success, all with wide open potential to be all star caliber, for an injury prone good-not-great OF that despite some nice plays and good OBP still never OPS'd over .800 in a Sox uniform. The Quintana trade was really nice too. They settled on the Sale trade when they probably didn't need to. If Moncada is Robinson Cano nobody cares, though. My exact sentiments

QUOTE (yesterday333 @ Jul 18, 2017 -> 08:22 AM) So I am thinking I should just come to the grips with the fact that I will be distracted from everything in life until the trade deadline passes. its going to be a long couple of weeks. I literally called work this week and said, "doc my next check for two weeks pay because I'm unable to focus currently due to personal circumstances". Not joking.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 18, 2017 -> 06:36 AM) It is interesting how many people think picking up Panda's contract is a good thing. A. Boston is flush with cash and not over the luxury tax. If these prospects are a bargain for $50 million, why would they be in the business of selling them? And B. JR just spent $50 million on a prospect. He certainly isn't going to spend $50 million on another, and neither would anyone here if they actually owned the team. +1,271,970 ninja post power points.

Ugly scoreboard watching night.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 17, 2017 -> 10:07 AM) Morosi saying Nats will continue looking for a reliever and a starter, and apparently a key factor in that is that they didn't give up any of their top 5 prospects in their deal with the A's. Yea - if Edwin Jacksons starting 5 for them they need another SP

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 16, 2017 -> 03:38 PM) I, to this day, have still enjoyed this year more than 2015 and 2016. And those years had Sale and Q for full years. This

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Jul 16, 2017 -> 11:10 AM) Jerry Crasnick @jcrasnick 3m There's lots of Todd Frazier to #redsox buzz, but they're still monitoring other 3B options. Search is still "wide open,'' says a source. Holy contradictions batman

Here's to hoping for a 2 - 1 loss.

Please include D-Rob

QUOTE (TRU @ Jul 16, 2017 -> 09:58 AM) I think people are underestimating how bad this team is going to be once more of these guys get traded It will be painfully glorious but hopefully result in wonderful things

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 16, 2017 -> 10:13 AM) Have Madson through next year and Doolittle through 20. Good trade. I assumed they where both FA after this season... wow... awful trade Oakland!!!

Good for the nationals... and I'm glad we didn't trade with them as that package ain't all that. Lazardo will end up being the best of the bunch but is still a crap shoot.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 16, 2017 -> 08:07 AM) We'll see. Since the original deal was apparently agreed to (and fell through), he's 1/8, 3 Ks, a double and GIDP with the bags loaded and nobody out. Better audition today, please, Todd. Highly doubtful that 8 at bats are going to make a huge difference. Too small of a sample size... he could go 2 for 2 in his next at bats and be hitting .300 over that period now.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 16, 2017 -> 08:19 AM) No s***. I'd say the same but it may stir the pot too much +1

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 08:35 PM) Sox just moved up to 3rd.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 07:42 PM) Holy f*** Back up the truck and drop off robertson/ swarzak / tommy boy for an absolute haul

I personally don't know enough about them both to have an opinion but I do know it'll be nice to watch their respective careers - ala Moncada / Benetindi / Devers

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 08:50 PM) Me too. Why do you like him more?

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 08:29 PM) I kind of like Kyle Tucker more then Eloy Jimenez so I am going to be disappointed if A's got him for Gray WHy do you like him more?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 07:25 PM) Kyle Tucker pulled from tonight's game. Muhahahaha, The dominoes shall fall
