Bob Sacamano

They can get him here like 18 games into the season for that.

No

I was just thinking about a deal with Tampa when I saw it was reported they were looking for catching lol well, not for Simpson but still.

He elected free agency yesterday I see. Gone but hopefully soon forgotten. @Balta1701

Mike Clevinger elected free agency yesterday

You probably already root for “someone” like him but just don’t know it.

I know but at least give yourself a better chance out of the gate. Could be a scoreless game right now.

Why didn’t King start this game?

Elected free agency today. Boom!

2 top end and a mid-rotation guy. Not just 3 depth.

Team needs to add 3 starters before I starting thinking they’re good. Burke, Martin, and Cannon are more “first man up” when there are injuries to a rotation. Not penciled into 60% of the rotation.

There lies the issue.

I think so too. Unless they commit to moving one off the position.

Yeah, I think he will be a semi-regular utility player.

D. Colson, Teel, Quero, Shane Smith mostly keeping it away from an F. This team needs to add SP and a power bat or two before we're talking contention. With a lockout looming, I feel like Davis Martin, Sean Burke, and Jonathan Cannon are yet again locks for the OD rotation next year.

Also won a World Series so that’s pretty cool. But also, glad they can’t re-sign him next year now.

Maybe guys would have actually wanted to play through their boo-boos and worked harder.

Cute that you think he currently has any say with the building of the team

So have other past GMs with the Sox and other teams GMs' as well that have had success.

Yeah it seems like the teams that are more match up based with the role are the ones that can’t really afford to spend on a closer.

A cheap starter or two, a cheap reliever or two, maybe a cheap bench piece. But think on the position player side (assuming no trades), all these guys will be one the roster: 1. Kyle Teel C 2. Edgar Quero C 3. Colson Montgomery SS/3B 4. Chase Meidroth 2B/SS 5. Miguel Vargas 3B/1B 6. Lenyn Sosa 1B/2B/3B 7. Brooks Baldwin IF/OF (semi-regular role) 8. Luis Robert Jr CF (won't be traded) 9. Andrew Benintendi LF (won't be traded) 10. Mike Tauchman RF (cheap veteran presence, could possibly be traded) 11. Korey Lee C (if they commit to Teel/Quero getting regular at bats at DH and/or other positions, they could carry a 3rd catcher) 12. Corey Julks OF (this is a spot they can a cheap RHH bat for the bench) 13. Curtis Mead IF (not much room for him but he could be a bench piece; also another spot to add a cheap veteran back up, preferably one that can play great D at SS) I was less confident about those last 3 spots. Think I'm leaning they will go this route with a year of uncertainty coming than actual spending and trying to be good.

Just not sure where else they would really spend that money. Think we’re pretty much looking at next year’s team right now.

f*** it

You insinuate enough all the time

Why won't they spend big being the only big market team in their division? According to tray, we're just supposed to be happy we have a team, regardless of how shitty the organization has been lol
