I smell a QO for Gio.
His first start for the Rangers will be against the Sox. 😃

If they blow it up, would Heston Kjerstad be a realistic/good target from Baltimore? He’s had some health problems, but hopefully he’s over it and will be 25 next year.

It’s nice having these 8:38 games end before 11pm. Thanks, pitch timer!

To lead to a sell off?
It wouldn’t?

27 games until the deadline. 12-15 would be nice.

I would be absolutely astonished if the Sox bought out TA, even if he doesn't get his s%*# together in 2023. The next FA class for SS is awful - TA would still have value at 1/$14M, but it certainly would be nice for him to remove his head from his ass.
You’re right. I could be way off on what his value is right now. We’ll see. I just know he’s probably gone at the end 2024 at the latest, and that’s good enough for me right now.

I’m wondering if he’s even tradeable anymore? What contender is going to want a horrible defender whose bat has turned into a wet noodle, not to mention the non-baseball issues
Yes, and if he stays until then end of the season, there’s a million dollar option the Sox can pay to make him a free agent. Good luck, Tim.

Not going to read the article to completion, but I hope he is happy one day. If that’s what he wants. Maybe he doesn’t.

I feel like this week is more of an opportunity for the Guardians to catch the Twins.
The Sox will go 3-4 and only gain a half game.

Can’t start a game thread, but here’s your Sunday lineup
-
Rays blow a lead to the Royals and lose
McClanahan pulled early
Wander Franco benched two games for being a bad teammate
Helluva day
-
A few days away, but Sunday could be a long day at the park. Otherwise, July 3rd is a possible makeup date.
-
Shutout for Joe Ryan
-
5 behind the Guardians
6 behind the Twins
Sell

Why would Ohtani sign with the Sox?
Exactly. Not even worth discussing.
Dodgers or Giants, in my opinion.

Buxton again. 5-0

Correa and Buxton homer in the first. Ryan on the mound.

Bummer. The gift that keeps on giving.

But what does selling really accomplish? It'd be one thing if we had a recent history of developing guys but, in reality, it's quite the opposite! This franchise is where expectations and raw talent go to die. We aren't getting top prospects for any of our trade bait. Do you have confidence we take a #95 rated prospect and actually build him up to get to the majors and succeed? I sure as hell don't.
Might as well just play it out. We're screwed no matter what.
Yes, probably a bad team as long as Reinsdorf owns the team and Hahn and Co are making decisions. However, I know I hate the majority of the major league team right now. If they can remove some of these guys and bring in hungry prospects, I’ll take my chances a couple hit.

What a 27th birthday for Touki.

I think it's very possible the ALC winner has 79 wins.
Possible, but if the Twins can keep it close to .500 until the last couple weeks of the season, they should get to 81-81. They play the Reds, Angels, Rockies, and A’s to finish up.

Twins down big early. Looking like 40-41 for a first half record. I still think they get to at least 82-80. Only question is if the Guardians get hot at some point.
