  1. The Commissioner should step in and disallow the trade from going through. It's that one-sided. Owner Monfort thinking only of his own pocketbook. The trade is a joke and bad for baseball. The same can be said for Monfort.
  2. Actually, Kiszla, who is the epitome of of negative basher writer, could have been worse, although he did make fun of GM Bridich. But, he is just getting started. His articles will probably continue all week. We don't know yet how much owner Monfort was involved in the negotiations. Bridich did go to Harvard, as did our guy, Rick Hahn, by the way.
  3. Rox will be blasted by the local media, IMO. should be interesting reading.
  4. He did a great imitation of Peavy back in the day.
  5. I don't want to lose Ben Bailey for some journeyman guy who would be the 25th man on the roster, or worse. I want to find out how good he is, and we'll have a better idea 9 months from now, if we have a minor league season.
  6. I just hope they give Yermin a legitimate shot at the gig.
  7. Didn't some well known actor do it? Brad Pitt?? Can't remember. Anyway, Porter hit the Self Destruct button. Couldn't stop. Maybe a psych major out there can explain it.
  8. and yet, no one here knows how good of a hitter we have in Yermin. If Sox had just given him a chance in 19-20, then we could evaluate the need for Cruz
  9. MLB and the Astros have been sued by one of their ex-affiliates. More to follow. Lawyers a-go-go.
  10. I still would like to sign Colome. Not much difference between the 2.
  11. I think 2k5 had a senior moment.
  12. Right out of the Labor Union Handbook. Of course, under any scenario, some team will still be in last place every year.
  13. Cuz his Mom made him cut his hair not too long after rookie season.
  14. Who has she represented before?
  15. This is now a sexist comment.
  16. Right. And, we kept Kopech and Vaughn. Can't wait to see how good these guys are.
  17. You're correct. I just looked it up. Baseball encyclopedia says Sox paid him $100,000 that year, then cut him. Thanks.
  18. Nope. He pitched for Sox.
  19. You answered Part A, but ignored Part B.
  20. That was a quick $4 Million down the drain. I wonder which Sox front office genius pulled that trigger.
  21. I never understood exactly why Covid prevented international signings last July. But since it did, why doesn't it prevent signings next month, since the virus is still out there.
  22. Then everybody would be doing it.
  23. Same here. I wonder how much was paid to the guy who created the BA formula 150 years ago.
  24. Flash, I can tell you're a smart guy who knows baseball, but really...... Moose is well into his 30's, has four years to go on his contract at $14-$20MM per year, and he has been a free agent three count em three times since 2017, without an overwhelming demand for his services. Bluntly, he is overpaid, and he's getting older. His stats are mediocre. Why would you give up Madrigal for him?
  25. Grammar police will get you.
