The Winter Meetings thread
Yes. I wish Sox could have hired an experienced pro like Kapler for Asst GM, while Getz is still on his training wheels. Then, he would have been available when they fire Pedro.

Cease To Padres per Passan
What do you want for Cease, another slew of infielders who can't hit? They need pitching, period. Atlanta's top prospects are pitchers. Looks like a good fit to me.

1959 team RIPs
I was there, too. Saw Al Smith's beer bath as a home run sailed into the stands above him.

Cease To Padres per Passan
Here's another thought on a potential Cease trade. Throw in our #1 draft pick mistake Gonzalez! See what Getz can get.

1959 team RIPs
Wow. Thanks. lots of great thrills from that team. I was in high school. Aparicio was an all-time favorite of mine. I just hated the day they traded him to Baltimore.

Eloy Trade Rumor Thread
Sheets should be traded to Cubs.

Sonny Gray to STL
In a heartbeat.

DeJong to Sox
This signing will do wonders for the morale of Popeye and Sosa, both of whom are almost certainly better players than DeJong. And cheaper.

Bummer to ATL
I'm glad he's gone. Seems to me that every time he was brought into a game in a reasonably high leverage situation, his first hitter was usually a lefty, and Bummer would quickly walk him. Then, he has to face the next two hitters.

The Phils sure do a much better job of drafting than the White Sox.

Bummer to ATL
I'll take both Popeye and Sosa over Nicky Lopez.

I wonder if his golf stance is like his batting stance.

Pony up!
Who is senior? Tom? or is there another? Destroying Lake View? How so? I don't doubt that you're correct......

I gotta wonder what the coaches say to him after this at bat.

Why not stop beating around your bush and just give us your political slant on things?

Me too. Stick Ramos in there at third and see what happens. Same with Popeye at short, Sosa at second. Sign Elvis, get Montgomery ready for 2025. Easy.

Getz
I'm all for giving him a chance. He hasn't screwed up yet. He gets criticized here for being a KC grad. Big deal. And, he gets criticized for heading a farm system that is in the bottom 5. He inherited that mess, and he didn't make it worse. He didn't make draft choices the last 5 years, did he? Getz would not have been my choice either, but he now has the gig, so let's just see how he does. If he fucks up, I'll be the first one to get after him. I know I was anti Hahn long before it was fashionable here. Nothing is going to happen until World Series is over. Then his opportunity surfaces.
