Pedro is so fucking Charmin soft with vets, but with rookies he leaps at the chance to be a hard ass.

Grifol about to install a time card punch in, punch out clock at the G-Rate

He's on a roll.

We do know that Pedro doesn't like Colas' "give 100%" attitude.

Also, while nabbing this photo: When Chris Getz retired, a symbol of Royals futility went with him

Also everyone remember, Chris is teaching guys baseball.

FYI, pasting x.com links won't work. Twitter.com links do.

I want Vera to succeed so badly, but it's getting hard to care at this point.

The good ol' "do or die" promotion.

I found who we trade Yoan for

Is that why the announcement included him wearing sunglasses, so we can't see the shock in his eyes when good players pass on the Sox in free agency?

Jerry seeing the Mets, Padres and Rangers all implode this year:

We already have. Unless he succeeds, in which case we will be enraged if he is ever traded due to a positional logjam and everyone will pretend they were never against him as a draft pick.

160, because the other teams genuinely can't believe the Sox are serious and don't show up until 15 minutes after game time and the Sox are declared victors.

First thought: This really feels like them limiting his innings + help him get his groove back Second thought: The 2024 rotation Cease (because he destroyed his value), Touki, Schlotens, Kopech-Crochet alternating starts and it's called "innovative," Davis Martin — now pitching with his left hand, Tanner Banks regularly pitching a bullpen day, Oscar Colas stretched out as a pitcher. Then Mena and Nastrini get called up and Pedro says they'll get playing time when they're ready, just not yet. Inexplicably, they play right field.

It's funny imagining him suddenly doing fielding drills with the team like Drake was.

I want to know what we think is more destructive: The 2015-2016 roster or this one? This one is no doubt worse on the field, but those All In teams...oof. They had a heavy, heavy cost.

Jimmy Rollins had a massive impact on the team by setting off the chain of events that led to the Drake LaRoche saga. Which means...whose kid does Elvis purge from the team?

Hmm. Stopgap at short, or do we get real fun and see something like Popeye/Sosa up the middle until Colson's ready?

If it makes you feel better, my "this will never come back to haunt me, surely" posts are "Fernando Tatis is just a flyer and will never amount to anything" and buckets of copium like "mayhaps James Shields is good for Giolito's development" articles that Merkin was cranking out. Like, goddamn, why did they need to include anything for James Shields.

Bold putting failed prospects Gonzalez and Eder in the top six. Also holy s%*#, didn't know Schultz had a shoulder impingement. I learned I had one in college one day when I tried to get a laptop out my bag and all of the sudden couldn't lift it. Before that spooks anyone: I fixed it with physical therapy. I'm assuming a freak athlete like Schultz will be fine as long (fingers crossed) the Sox rehab it properly.

God fucking damn Oscar got every seam.

Bruh. And the opposite of this:
