Mike Schildt- Padres Manager
My pick before the Sox picked Grifol. We’ll see how this goes.

Yes, points! (if you know, you know)

So you know it’s true

The video lost me calling Cease an ace.

2024 BBHOF: Beltre, Mauer, Helton in. Buehrle stays on.
Would never vote for a guy after suspended post Mitchell Report. Beltran, Beltre, Buehrle, Helton, Hunter, Jones, Mauer, Rollins, Utley, Wagner Was never really a Jones or Wagner supporter, but they’re close enough that I would probably check them if I actually had a vote.

Yes. Forgot about that.

Brewers non tendered Woodruff. Yeesh.

Eloy Trade Rumor Thread
Just my opinion, but Getz should talk generally about trading guys.
-
Bummer to ATL
It just doesn’t make sense to trade him at his age, talent level, and years left. Hopefully he stays healthy now.
-
Non-Tender 11/17
40-man at 40, but dump away. Deadline at 7 central.
-
Bummer to ATL
I think if there’s one stat you can look at and call this a good trade it’s Bummer having WHIP over 1.500 over the last two seasons.
-
Bummer to ATL
It was up to 37 with Mena and Eder. They really don’t have to jettison guys now, but looking at the 40–man, there is still a bunch of easily dumped AAAA guys.
-
Bummer to ATL
Shuster, Soroka, Lopez, and Shewmake are on the 40-man which is now full. Lot of DFA candidates.
-
Bummer to ATL
I kinda got over that 4-5 years ago

Bummer to ATL
If Kopech stays, it’s gotta be bullpen. He deserves to be given up on as a starter.
-
Bummer to ATL
Yep, good potential trade. Time will tell.

Until proven otherwise, it’s Dodgers or Giants and everything else is using teams to get the most money.

Who do you want or think will replace Benetti?
I had no problem with Monaco in the limited amount I heard him. Hope they match up on a deal. When McKnight was on the Score, nothing made me turn off the radio faster than hearing his voice. For him to be the pbp announcer for the only team I care about, would be a gut punch.

Non-Tender 11/17
Got a week… Candidates? Additions to not be exposed to Rule 5? 40 man is at 35. Any educated guesses would be appreciated.

More "Changes" to sox staff
Chris Johnson (and Miguel Cairo) are on Dave Martinez’s staff in Washington.

Benetti to Tigers
I’d like to nominate Gavin Sheets for the broadcast booth. Kill a couple birds…
-
Benetti to Tigers
Yes, and Hawk was important to the Sox brand for a long time until he lost his fastball. I just never viewed Benetti (now 40) that way. Hopefully the next announcer is better for all and the fans upset today will just get used to it. We may not have a lifer announcer ever again. And that’s ok.
-
Benetti to Tigers
Actually, you can have any take you want. It’s a baseball announcer. It’s not that big of a deal either way. If you never liked the schtick, you’re happy with this. If you liked his announcing, fine…check out his other assignments when you can.

Benetti to Tigers
Love this unless it turns into a “careful what you wish for” situation. Example: Connor McKnight
