I'll give you guys something to fixate on. Who is his agent gonna be? Boras? If so, then we can have a real thread talking about the second-best player in the draft.

Kelly could have made it as a pinch runner. Fastest pitcher I have ever seen.

Boston traded him to Cards as part of the Contreras deal.

Well stated summary. And, it represents the best in legitimate collective bargaining.

Other than his throwing, he does an adequate job in left.

Gotcha beat by 1.

Jeez, I just realized TP is on the 40-man roster

yes.

The thought entered my mind.

Yep. That was the single worst hire I have ever seen in baseball.

I can't help wondering if anyone besides Getz pulled the trigger on this hire. If it was all Getz, then good for him.

Stats.

Ya, framing stats are a bunch of hooie. Useless.

Harry, if there were no lottery, Sox would have picked #1 in 2025 and #2 in 2026,

I can't un-remember Chase getting hit in the head with a pop up a few months ago.

Be nice to her.

Roch is older than Carlson and will have had 3 years of college ball behind him when he signs. He figures to hit the majors first. Still, I'm really looking forward to Carlson getting his first pro at bats. I still don't understand why he was held back after signing.

Yeah, they need to move Bonemer to Left field in Spring Training.

Didn't know that. Thanks. I'm not sure how they could know that without interrogating family members, which would never happen anyway. Unless the IRS reads Sox Talk.

Lots of soft dollars on a baseball team. Ask any CPA. Plus, like any privately owned asset, if there are a lot of dollars involved, you can offset or hide them simply by paying yourself and family members whatever salary is needed to bring down profits.

That's the guy. Why is he out?

What was wrong with the guy we had this last season? Whose name I can't spell. Who was an old pal of Max V.

Yes, that is what we need to see. I wish they would have played him after signing him. Ethan Holliday for example got many at bats in low A.

I would like to read it.

If Sox brass want Sosa in left next year, they would have arranged for him to get reps in LF in Winter Ball.
