  1. NOBLETIGER ended up mattering. Also, how do you not throw a slider there?
  2. Execution was terrible. Injuries didn't help for sure, but the minors had zero depth and they made terrible free agent signings. This team with some smart signings probably beats Oakland in 2020, gives a much better series to the Astros in 2021, and wins the division last year.
  3. Sheets just bought himself a 2024 roster spot
  4. I can be UNBELIEVABLY petty so I know I would.
  5. No, that's about all we've got going for us right now
  6. Robert is gonna hit 40 homers with basically no help on offense.
  7. I don't doubt that they have their own internal valuation framework. It seems to favor relievers and marginal utility players, though, so it sucks.
  8. $4/56M was "more than you're worth" to JR. $14M/year. 11 bWAR in 4 years with MIA and TOR, 2.75 bWAR average per year. Roughly $8M per WAR at that time, so Buehrle was worth about $22M/year. JR is a moron.
  9. Good. Keep cycling through these guys. Drop dead weight in AAA.
  10. Yeah that was bad managing. Scholtens was wild and was hanging his curve. He was clearly done. He's not an ace pitcher who can gut through that. Get 6 good innings from him and run with it.
  11. I think Scholtens is done
  12. Wait, Moncada can still hit homers?!

    Seems like it. I'd really like to see the Sox cycle that dead weight at AAA/on the 40 man more. Put in claims on every DFA and release and see what you can do.

  15. No way! You need to spend at LEAST half your payroll on relievers to have any success.
  16. Hopefully precautionary/very short term for Robert
  17. As half greasy gabagool I am offended
  18. Stayed the whole time. Cease didn’t have that decisive blow I expected. Offense showed up well.
  19. Sitting in the parking lot. Did not expect to see a win. Happy to be wrong.
  20. We’ll, I didn’t expect to see THIS outcome in person…
  21. I think he’s saying some of the guys who were traded contributed to the problems they had. Maybe that’s true, but so far they haven’t fixed s%*#.
