Quin

I saw Dalquist last night and this feels vaguely familiar.

Romy wins the HR race vs. Abreu and Beni

I did not realize Dalquist is starting and have now seen a significant amount of walks.

You've got one more shot tomorrow!

Going to see the Dash tonight on Coney Island. Excited to see Chappy and Tatum.

I mean, it didn't work in Tampa. Edit: But also, yeah. The Sox should have probably been able to do something with him.

The duality of fan

I smell a Clint Frazier home run tonight.

But this is besides the point: Burger at 2B is stupid. But Rougned Odor based on his 2018 (and not, for some reason, his 2022) would be stupid.

Obviously. If you want to go with bWAR for the absolute hell of it. LG 2017: 1.0 2018: 0.9 2019: 1.3 2020: 0.7 2021: 2.1 2022: -1.0 RO 2017: -0.5 2018: -0.3 2019: -0.6 2020: -0.3 2021: -0.4 2022: 0.1

Ah, since you provided 3 seasons (while skipping his most recent season), I had assumed that you meant 2019-2021. Because obviously 2018 is going to be more predictive of a player's 2023 than their 2022?

To add to this: Mystery Player 2019: 1.8 fWAR 2020: 0.5 fWAR 2021: 1.8 fWAR

2019: 1.0 fWAR 2020: -0.1 fWAR 2021: 1.3 fWAR So, no?

This board would have loathed Rougned Odor like no other. The man strikes out at a rate that would make half the Sox batters blush. Basing this on 14 games is pretty much like going off Andrus' 2022 White Sox stint, except you know you'll at least get his glove.

I've never been sold harder on a player.

Wait, what the hell?

Y'all really need to stop ragging on Sosa like he's a finished product at 23 years old with MLB 106 plate appearances.

Bro

I mean, Yankees fans booed Aaron Judge.

But also the Sox should be active in the Japanese market for the first time in 2 decades.

They can't do it until 2026. Lefty third baseman in the NPB. This thread is mostly an excuse to post this absolute bomb that I'm guessing only @Eminor3rd has seen.

I ran out. Now you can only get by on starts by Cokepech.

It's easy to find takes on this site, like my dumbass take saying that James Shields fixing Giolito and help turning him into the ace he was projected to be would make the trade worth it in the end cause Tatis would flame out as a lottery ticket. I was huffing so much copium when I made that post I might as well have opened a drug den inside the G-Rate.

Talked to him recently, he's doing well. Instead of spending money at Sox games, it's going to a nice family vacation.

The pitch clock or the pitch comm? There's been so many rule changes that I've lost track.
