Buy guys who will always have association with the Sox. An Abreu jersey is timeless. The end was rough, but a TA jersey will age well. Robert is risky but more than likely will be a safe bet.

Oh my God it had to be the Padres. This is either gonna make things come full circle or cause the Tatis Curse to go into overdrive

Chris Getz trying to decide who to roster:

What about the ogre emoji ?

Tbf 30% of those are Sports Guy and Co. telling us that we're morons

Only four pitchers is a bold move by Pedro.

Who's traded first, Cease or Fields?

Somehow still better than Pedro's clubhouse.

Hell, they were more unified for TLR. They completely lost the plot for Grifol. It's why he needs so many vet leaders playing FASTs on a train that there's no room for rookies.

Every free agency is.

The master plan unfolds.

My work slack is about to blow up. We have like 3 Red Sox fans and the Yankees fans were ribbing them hard about Giolito.

Wasn't there just an article about how the Sox and Bears are working together on trying to get the projects funded together?

Tangentially related: Now that he's donned the Savannah Banana uniform, does Clemens' clock get reset and, if so, I think we should let him in if he's willing to go into the Hall with the Banana logo on his cap.

You're right, it doesn't. But eventually, teams are just gonna go "nah man we don't feel like dealing with this."

Here's the thing about Bauer. He runs his mouth constantly. It's why someone like Marcell Ozuna - or Urias the first time around - flies completely under the radar in comparison. Bauer? He decided to tweet out support of a Naval officer whose negligent driving killed two Japanese people, generating controversy in the one place that was letting him pitch. Next level stupid on his part. Other things worth noting Multiple women have accused him. It's not a one-time thing with Mr. Big Brain. Bauer peaked with sticky stuff in 2020. We know this because he basically dared the league to crack down on him. If a guy who dominated in 2020 and part of 2021 was the third best pitcher on his NPL team, why is he suddenly going to be a pitching adonis over here? There's a reason all 30 teams are not willing to deal with the headache that comes with a guy currently peacocking about going up against minor leaguers.

You're right. Pedro will take them to 2-38.

I gotchu

We lose the best because of jail. Flip a bat? Jail. Run too hard? Jail. Swing on 3-0? Believe it or not, jail.

Question: How many of our Royals were part of that "fight everything that moves" Royals team? Obviously Pedro and Keller were. So...culture?

Branch Rickey probably wouldn't be easily swayed by a player's agent going "he really wants to play hard and earn a spot" like Getz was with Moustakas.

Normally, I'd agree. But instead of doing a legit job search, JR hired Getz because he could right the ship without taking a year to assess things, so he gets to be judged now.

Chris Getz's free agent list.

Weak ass Brad Keller. This is like Justin Morneau on the Sox except Morneau had an infinitely better career.
