God Swisher is such a pud

Peyton Graham to DET

Well this was unexpected.

This has Whisenhunt as the pick.

I think that's oversimplifying it. When I worked in Indy ball with games being at 7, players generally showed up in mid-afternoon, like 2-3 (some earlier, some later of course). They prepare, go to the trainer(s), get their work in, etc., and then have BP/pregame stuff, then the actual game. They weren't usually leaving until 10-11 post-game. In my personal experience, it's more like an 8 hour day at least. Factor in taxes and that hourly rate gets even grimmer.

About time.

ATL buying a draft pick

It says that the Sox are hitting like ?

Yeah they just moved the off day around for the holiday.

Walk off 2R HR by Carlos Perez

It's just so dumb, like I understand that if Lenyn is going to be riding the bench for worse players, then yeah he needs to go back down to keep playing. But if this was the plan all along, why not just promote Yolbert when you needed an INF?

Gotta make sure TLR can fit Leury's -1 WAR and 28 wRC+ into the lineup, NOBODY PUTS LEURY IN A CORNER!

They needed a body really, nothing more than that.

He's getting the early Mendick treatment

Banish the Leury banner to Siberia

I'd bet that none of the other 29 teams would regularly start Vaughn in the OF bc he's a bad OFer. Why keep putting him in position to negate what he provides on offense? He needs to man 1B/DH, MAYBE cover the OF like once a week if necessary. Coming into tonight, he's a -4 DRS in LF in 138.1 innings and a -4 in 130 innings in RF. Meanwhile, he's a 1 DRS in 51 innings at 1B (yes, sss). We need to stop jamming a square peg in a round hole.

Ohhh that's nice

Although not confirmed, this is the same person who had the Mena promotion

Sosa not in the lineup for the Barons seems like peculiar timing

Possibly, he's just recently surpasses 400 PAs and has 370+ ABs for the barons over the last two years, so maybe they were waiting out a benchmark before a promotion. There's no real reason at this point that Ryder Jones/Laz Rivera/Zach Remillard should be an "obstacle" for much longer.

I'm still patiently awaiting Lenyn's promotion to Charlotte. Feels long overdue despite it not being a perfect fit at the moment.

Nothing will ever top that, biggest banger in Soxtalk history IMO.
