Braden not much left to prove in MiLB

I hope Braden spent all day traveling to Cincinnati

A+ straight to the majors, let’s go

Think of how much of a hot streak Vaughn would need just to erase his -1.3. It’s basically impossible for him to be valuable

Any clues that he’s working on some new things maybe? They tinker down there

I haven’t watched him, but listening to you guys and looking at the stats, it seems like he’s torching Low A. Quick, merit-based promotions would be a cool MO for the Getz era.

Have we tried mailing dogshit yet?

Is this really a correct use of cliche?

Can Quero win it too?

Love a Sosa/Vaughn at 3 & 4 launching bombs

If Elko can add equal or better defense we should just release this guy. it’s okay if he goes on to figure it out somewhere else. Probably reached the point here where everybody needs a different direction.

What’s the record? 105 sounds pretty terrible

You mean what knockers!

Thanks for posting! Those guys looked like they had no chance

Well played man! Got me good!

Nice post. I’ve thought for decades that the key to batting is playing the game in the box which is totally mental. This is an ability all in its own. Wait for the exact pitch you want until 2 strikes. Then become a tough out and foul off a bunch until you can serve one the other way for a single. It sounds simple, but 99% of Sox hitters look like their plan is to swing hard at strikes in the zone. Same plan with 2 strikes. Paulie figured it out the last year or two and TA had it dialed in pretty good until he became a train wreck

Everyone knows this about the NBA, that’s not what he’s saying. It’s crazy, but it’s starting to look like they did luck into something. A few somethings. None of it makes sense.

Fair. Where you at on it? At this exact moment in time, is it looking more good or is it looking more bad?

Kyle Teel .300/.400/.500

Man I just don’t want us to do that stuff to players anymore.

Definitely. Think there’s a world where we get a second half rotation of Schultz, Smith, Smith, Thorpe & Burke for a bit? Say everything is going right for those guys and they are torching the minors, will we get a taste? I don’t know the plan for innings, but it would be cool though and plant some serious seeds of optimism for 2026.

Wow can Teel end up being a monster, like a .900+ OPS guy? Can he be what we all wanted Flowers to be?

Well this will probably encourage me to check box scores. It’ll likely be another year of not watching a single game for me, but it looks like MLB & MiLB box scores will get some attention. If somebody from the Sox is reading this, that’s progress on getting this fan back one day. I often wonder if my baseball fandom is just done. It’s weird for sure.

I think what Greg is saying is they might not actually score a run until sometime in May. What if we only score 100 runs all year

I still feel like he’s a HOFer if we just left him at 3rd. 3rd is a swagger position and he was crushing it. Nothing cool about 2nd base and totally neutered him beyond repair. might be time to dust off the Beckham projections thread for laughs
