Yes it was.

The rich know that stadiums are a bad investment. They hold cities hostage by saying "pay up or we'll leave". Maybe their bluff needs to be called. There's always the bribe that other events would help pay for a stadium. That rarely happens.

So does this mean instead of a 100 losses it will be 98?

Most people looking for a job often go for the bigger payout. Rings come in handy when you are broke and need to sell them.

BTW read the tweets they are funny. "That’s a funny way to spell Bryce Harper"

Jr probably said, "Could you represent someone else or retire? I don't like you."

I liked watching the Dash. They seemed to be better at situational hitting. It was a very clutch team until the postseason.

It supports my theory the Sox have bad luck with NL veteran talent.

If I'm his agent you go for the extra $50 million. Ya never know when you might need that extra $50M.

I got a good laugh at this. Too bad baseball has become all about the homerun.

GMs see this as well.

File this one under Overkill.

I thought the title was totally lame and not worth the time to read.

Veteran NL talent hasn't worked for the Sox this decade.

Maybe he would be better for the DSL but nowhere near the bigs.

QB rating. Are other sports using WAR? I think they do in hockey. Agents usually like those worthless stats.

Playing baseball in March in the Midwest doesn't help either. There are so many factors out there. A team can still win and not pack a stadium.

This thread is going to to run out to be a fillibuster thread. I never go there anyway. I like places that are free of political stuff. I hope mods will also remove or edit any political jabs people throw in their posts. I've seen this happen with newer members.

I didn't understand that move either.

Emotion is overrated. You can watch the NFL all day and see a WR celebrate over a 2 yd pass. Most of your hall of fame players in any sport would not be there if it was based on emotion.

It's not the glamorous position it use to be. I'd bet any young catcher that is good at hitting a baseball an organization wants to move them down t first base.

The Sox never get an experienced manager. It's often former players. Fans get duped into thinking this is the right thing to do. Omar Visquel will probably be the next manager. As for the Cubs the experienced ones like Baker and Pinella didn't pan out.

I thought they would be in the WS again. Baseball is a funny sport. Sometimes it's not about talent but a team getting hot at the right time.

This was a fun team to watch. So shocked about their post season results. Can't wait till next year.

I can't wait till next year when it comes to Winston-Salem, Kannapolis, and Great Falls. Birmingham should be better as well.
