Might be time to get off the internet for a while.

I understand the logic in a guy like Melendez, simply because he can play - but isn’t limited to - catcher, thus allowing Teel/Quero to DH without Venable worrying. I don’t have interest in Melendez specifically, but as a minor league deal its fine.

Yeah, I don’t see why he would set himself up like that unless they were intent on following through.

I’m just gonna post this and leave it alone because I don’t want to sound like the board police or some kind of dickhead, but in my opinion the constant bickering and frankly childish posting is damaging what this place could be. Every now and then you’ll see someone create a long, well thought out post and it’s quickly buried and forgotten by the same arguing in circles every thread. It isn’t a great way to encourage traffic from potentially new and informed posters. Again, in my opinion. Anyways, we’re all cheering for the same team. Except caulfield, and he’s banned.

Jesus Christ. Glad I missed this one!

Meidroth also plays smart baseball, whereas Madrigal plays ….baseball?

Kim was their starting SS, so I don’t imagine Sosa is of much interest.

He grew up a big Mark Buehrle fan and wore 56 when he first came up for that reason.

Very next post: “I was a die hard Cub fan back then”

Hey dude, Conforto used to be a 4 WARt player.

I love AJ Ewing, but not sure if they’d give him up. Where is the Clifford talk coming from? Is it a thing, or just speculation on the board?

Realmuto back to Philly for 3/45. Domino’s falling fast.

Ol’ Cohen seems pretty jazzed about it. I can’t think who else it might be about. 🤔

I already posted about the McGough signing.

Trey Mcgough (Eloy trade) decided he doesn’t want to be retired anymore and signed with the Mets.

I think Walcott could stick. He’s a big boy, but a freak athlete. Your point remains, though.

Another fear was realized, though.

You can’t possibly be this thick.

Once again, that isn’t the argument. My point was that it’s perfectly normal to take a stance on things that don’t directly affect you. I don’t know why you keep making it about something else.

I don’t think that’s what PaleAleSox was referring to. But you knew that already.

I don’t want to turn this into a big thing because there’s no point, as Timmy joked about, but think this post through. Are you honestly indifferent about people’s behaviour if it doesn’t directly affect you? I doubt it. Anyways, regardless on anyone’s thoughts about Matt Shaw, I can’t imagine it happening.

Shaw certainly has more power potential than Meidroth due to their profiles, but Shaw baseball savant page is much uglier. The guy swings a whiffle bat.

Max Kepler 80 game PED suspension.

Holy hell that’s wild. speaking of arbitration, it made me think of the pettiness with Giolito years ago. Anyone on the Sox a union rep right now?

This actually made me burst out laughing. On the topic though, good for him.
