Semien and Bassitt alone were like 60-something WAR

Just get Sosa or Baldwin in there for Rojas and this looks like a real offense almost.

I'll settle for making the playoffs two years in a row without a weird Covid year.

I was thinking Korey Lee - Gary Sanchez is their backup catcher and has been horrible. Either that, or a B-tier arm because the O's need pitching.

Kjerstad just sent down to AAA by the Orioles. Could be a good buy low candidate for the Sox. Get him hooked back up with Ryan Fuller. Plus it would be hilarious to see O's fans reactions if Kjerstad was traded for scraps.

I don't know why they bothered pretending they had a shot for Machado or Harper. They know how Reinsdorf operates. Shame on us for buying into that hype, too. I was so sure they were going to sign Machado, even though I thought Harper was a much better fit.

I did a quick positive vs negative WAR from trades and free agents for Hahn and he was remarkably close to 0.0 WAR factoring in every move I looked at. It was by no means exhaustive and I'm sure I missed a few players, but that level of incompetence is almost laudable.

Used to do that trip when I lived in Uptown, then started driving because it still took an hour+.

BOY would this Royals team suck without Witt

Hey alright they're not rolling over and dying at least

This one's not looking so good. Hopefully the Sox can run into a reliever who has nothing today in the 8th or 9th.

Couldn’t touch the slider so you throw him a fastball in a completely different tunnel…

I love getting a break from the doomers.

Sosa should get the starting 2B spot until Colson is ready. Then Sosa becomes the super utility guy, or goes down to AAA if he can't fix some of his underlying issues.

Don't you besmirch the good name of Top Notch

Damn came here to post this. You guys are quick.

Not sure why the pitcher even gave himself a chance to throw the ball in the strike zone.

I'll take a split and a blown chance to win 3 of 4

NEVER MIND

Elko is WAY too swing happy

Good bunt. Was hoping he'd rush it and throw it away after checking 3B and 2B.

Bunt and a sac fly time

Rough strike zone. Yeesh.

Glad to see they're fighting back
