Anyone else having issues with ads? Seems like this issue had arisen last week or so. Both on phone and computer but makes it really rough to navigate on phone. Is this a permanent change?

What he said. He's hardly even been healthy. Just ran out of time. Sucks - I like him too. I'd probably just hold him thru April on the 28 man honestly and see if he's needed assuming there are no offers worth taking. If you can flip him for anything useful for the pitching staff, you 100% have to do it.

They should have around $20Mish in room. Heck, go get 3 guys on these deals. They're gonna get opportunities.

Rule 5 draft? Rule 5 draft isn't for 10 months. Sox have to make a decision on Adolfo in the next couple days.

Probably going to be Valasquez instead of ReyLo. Not that that is any better.

Sounds like 6 weeks best case, but 8 sounds more realistic.

So basically gonna be without Lynn for April and May. Woof. Rough week.

Eaton?

Sorta bummed to see the book closed on Collins. Dude was an awful catcher, but I do expect if he ever got a chance to hit consistently in the bigs, the power would show. But I don’t think Toronto is going to be that place for Zack either.

Id be surprised by that. Not sure what Seby adds.

Yep

Nah. Pollock CBT number is $12m.

Don’t let logic get in the way of a good Parkman pessimistic rant with those heels dug in.

Just check out the posting history of the guy that ruled Lynn out for 3-4 months. Not hard to figure out the extreme bias.

As probably wanted a pitcher that could help this year. They’re not exactly flush with options at the moment. Sox don’t have that to offer.

Lol. Ok Jack. Vaughn for Keller is a comically bad proposal. Thank god you’re not running this org.

IDGAF about Vaughn’s stats from last year. He skipped AA and AAA and hadn’t played in a game for over a year, and is a year removed from being a consensus top 20 prospect in the game as a 1B, and certainly would have been much higher if he played OF in college. He has enormous offensive upside. And on top of all that has more control than Keller. you have a lot of really bad takes, but this is up there.

The same people moaning for the Padres would be complaining to no end if the Sox made the same moves.

Sure. But not for AV as Jack suggested. That’s bonkers.

Assuming Lynn isn’t seriously hurt, I’m fine missing out on Manaea. Dude just doesn’t move the needle much. But we certainly need to add some SP depth in the next few days. This does, however, seem like a very bearable package. But appears Oakland wanted some pitching that could help sooner than we could provide.

Well fuck.

TJS confirmed by Crochet.

He’s useful if he’s not over exposed. I think the fear from last year is TLR will find a way to get Leury in the lineup most days, often at the expense of better players.

Giys are optioned when on 40 man roster and reassigned to minor league camp when not on 40 man.

Im all for acquiring Manaea for the right price. But most of deals discussed here are overpays imo. Manaea is solid but unspectacular, especially for just 1 market value season.
