They’re going to need a new RF next year.
The number of people who were treating it as a given Colas would be good was completely insane to me

I’ve heard so many rumors about massive payroll slashing next year. Gonna be so ugly
Gonna be brutal watching a 100+ loss team that isn't eligible to pick inside the top 10

If it is true that JR hates to lose to the Cubs, then he should be livid after tonight.
I'm sure Jerry's excited to slash payroll at the deadline. If Jerry cared about results, KW & Hahn would have been gone a decade ago

He should have been fired weeks ago. Now he’ll be used as the scapegoat.
I don't care one way or another about Pedro, but the best manager in baseball history couldn't do anything with this roster

The return of Madrigal
Healthy Madrigal would be one of the Sox better players 🙂

Wouldn’t be surprised if Kelly and Graveman were pitched to showcase for the Cubs, along with Bummer. Kaplan apparently mentioned a few of them as possible interests.
The pitcher usage tonight definitely felt like it was as much about showcasing guys vs actually trying to win the game.

Bummer has looked great lately. So that's something.

I'm so ready for the Joe Kelly experience to be over.
It was a terrible signing in the moment and worked out even worse than I anticipated.

Let’s go. Let’s win a pointless game and be 10 games out.
Getting locked in for the top lottery odds is right there!!
i know no one wants to hear it and that's fine- 1

The leadoff hitter doesn't bunt but Joey F'n Gallo does. This Twins team is the absolute dumbest team I've ever seen. How the hell are they leading this division.
They aren't even the dumbest team in this game

Have we ever considered Yasmani is playing the wrong position
He has no value outside of catcher 🙂

Perez is not a catcher, likely not a hitter.
The downgrade in framing from Seby/Yaz to Perez is staggering

Awesome play there by Yaz. He's looked good lately.

The amount of range TA covered there was unreal.... but just let Bennetendi catch the ball, man

TA's looking a bit more like himself lately

He only has value as a catcher
He's more likely to get hurt catching was my point

Just now, Heads22 said:
Also, if they don't trust Zavala enough to hit here, yet they don't trust Perez enough to ever catch, I'm not quite sure why we need to carry three catchers
Keep Yaz away from catching so it's easier to trade him for a C- prospect

Perez has no shot again Duran lmao

Honestly, of all our core relievers, I’m happiest with Graveman blowing games right now. I think it’s very unlikely a team will take on his salary for 2024, so we’re probably stuck with him anyways. Glad Lopez & Kelly pitched well.
One appearance isn't going to move the needle on Graveman's value regardless. It's not a Kelly situation where teams might be skeptical about his health.

Seby has an OBP around .185 vs RHP
That feels like one of the higher marks on this team 🙂

Now someone trade a C level prospect for Kelly, please

I'm going to miss watching Lucas pitch every 5 days. Such an easy guy to root for.

Bad night for pitching. The starters at mlb, AAA, AA, A+, and DSL all got clobbered. Pallette was meh in A, ACL starter doing well so far. Pitching development may need a serious overhaul.
I would say overhauling player development (pitching specifically) is the most pressing organizational issue aside from replacing Jerry, Kenny, and Rick.

I don't mind keeping TA because the team will very likely have no incentive to be bad. It feels very similar to a Giolito situation from last year.
