Sox @ Tigers Delayed Start on now, Game 2, Avoiding 162?, Burke
Soroka has been a different guy out of the pen. I would not be opposed to bringing him back. I wonder what the price is gonna be and if he's gonna try for one more shot as a starter.

What sort of gift is expected when you hand the rest of your division the playoffs?
That's a 30 game improvement. If Steve Cohen cloned himself and the clone bought the Sox, you couldn't spend enough to win 72 games. The Sox have 0 decent position players. It is gonna be a long slow climb to mediocrity.

9/27 Sox @ Detroit 5:40PM
In AAA, I liked DeLoach more than Fletcher. I'm starting to feel that way in mlb. Fletcher is a very good defensive RF. Not sure that matters. DeLoach has a shot at being an average big leaguer. Neither are Jake McCarthy, but maybe DeLoach can be something?

Record. Set.

9/26 Sox vs. Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 1:10PM - final home game
Any chance they non-tender Vaughn and try Vargas at first? Admittedly he doesn’t hit enough to play 1b, but on the bright side, he doesn’t hit enough to play anywhere else either.

CHSN to be available on antenna in Chicago
Chuck said Ozzie would be there. No idea whether Hurt will be coming with. Pre and Post so much better than the actual games, the question is really should they bring the team with them.

My Dad didn't take me to my first DeWalt drill. End of story.

9/25 Sox vs. California Angels 6:40PM - is today the day?
If you simulated a 162 game season of just the Sox vs. the Angels, would baseball as we know it simply cease to exist. One of these two is the worst team I have every seen and it is both of them.

I look forward to Fletcher’s future career as a defensive replacement.

Please. They are present utility players. No projection necessary.

So happy for DJ Gladney. Hard worker who has a great attitude. He’s been a fan favorite at every level. Hopefully they get a hitting coordinator in here who can help guys like him reach another level in performance.

Another nice outing for Pallette. 2 no-hit innings with a walk and 3 Ks. Franklin has been solid all year as well.

9/24 Sox vs. Halos 6:40PM - A chance to witness history
Some completely unknown, replaceable reliever blowing a game against a truly awful team in the 7th inning would be a fitting way for them to set the record. Their ERA in the 7th and 8th in close games must be about 15.

Ron Marinaccio
Wow. Deep pull, but no. You're thinking of the Big Ragu. He was like Fonzie as an actor/singer/dancer.

Sox @ SD Game Thread (9/21) Not Needed; Sox Still Suck
I sold him short. With all the injuries and lack of command, I have been lower on him than most. Would be happy to be proven wrong.

I hate Fletcher.

9/21 Game
Touki Toussaint gives up 8 earnies in .2IP. Please don’t make me watch him next year.

Kuhl DFA, Soroka activated, Leasure to AAA
So many interchangeable 4A players. Kuhl hasn’t been great, hasn’t been awful. Soroka was awful in the rotation but okay in the pen. He’s a FA in a little over a week. Not sure having him on the roster matters. Sox could have 20 spots open on the 40 man by November. I do not know how they are going to build this into a 100 loss team.

2024 MiLB Catch All
2025 is this offseason. He needs to be added this winter, but it’s fine cuz the Sox will have about 20 spots in search of upgrade.

Sox trying to fix Vargas
Fedde and Kopech for 2 minor league 2b. Pretty epic fail.

Foster to DL, Eder up
Eder might be interesting from the pen.

Sox trying to fix Vargas
Why does Vargas deserve more at bats next year than Sheets? He is out of options next year and is a worse hitter right now than anyone they have. People thought I was crazy when I said he was the Dodgers version of Lenyn Sosa or Oscar Colas, but here we are. He's gotta be hitting by June of next year or he could be a roster crunch victim. One of the more disastrous trades I can remember and it was obvious from the second it was made. I'd kill to have Connor Norby instead and I'm not even a fan.

My development plan for Vargas involves replacing him with Ramos.
