Benintendi
I almost got my ass beat in a tavern over a game of hockey. Thought the guy playing had cut in front of my pal and I. Called him an a##hole. He was bent over playing at the time I said it. After he was done he straightened up and was at least 5-6 inches taller than me. I've always written checks my 5'8" ass can't cash. Some how I'm still alive.:)

Sox "considering Colson"
Was gonna post the same thing. He's healthy and raking. Should be starting 3B next year.
-
8/9 Games
I'd like to see Colson get 2 hits in a game. Really hope this season was caused by not enough reps in the lower classes. If it turns out he can't handle a good fastball, he's in trouble.

The Sox aren't spending "right now"
No reason to spend on free agents. But please, spend a ton on more scouts and proven instructors. This team has rotted to the core. Take it down to the studs, including Getz.

Sox Talk podcast reviewing the day...
AJ would be a welcome addition to this organization. Also a short one. He'd punch someone the first week. He always struck me as a guy who reallly wants to win. This group would drive him to violence.

Signings worse than Benintendi in the last 5 years
Jaime Navarro. He had the straightest fastball I've ever seen. His 5 million a year in the 90's was more than 16 million now.

Pedro Grifol, Charlie Montoyo, Eddie Rodriguez, & Mike Tosar Fired (Grady Sizemore interim manager)
pencil thin was one of Bermans best nicknames

8/7 Games
Wes Kath is about 3 good games away from becoming a prospect again. Pallette another scoreless 2 innings.

Gamethread 8/7: We're #1 at #2
I'm really pulling for Benintendi to lead the team in homers. It would be the the funniest thing ever.

Gamethread 8/6: "Taylor" Made
Hey, Jonathon Cannon looks like a MLB pitcher. When he was drafted they said he had a high floor. It actually looks like the Sox got it right. He's not a big strike out guy, but all of his pitches move. He might end up being a good #3 or #4 for a long time.

8/4 Games
Peyton Palette strong again. 2 inning save. Six weeks ago I truly thought he'd lost his career on the operating table. One of the few brights spots recently for the worst organization in any sport.
-
8/1 Games
And thats saying a lot. Peyton Pallette was leading the failure derby until his switch to the bullpen. That's when Nastrini made his move.

Fletcher, Peralta and Touki return to Chicago
35 wns might be out of the question now. 1962 Mets were a juggernaut in comparison. The two prospects are probably 3-4 years away. They have some potential. Vargas is a stiff. Just got back from 10 day vacation with the kids and grandkids. We have the same win total as when we left. Screw it.

Sosa Optioned, Mendick DFA, Senzel Signed
I dunno. He really can play defense. late game defensive replacement.
-
Maldy DFAed
A ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. So long Moldy.

Heyman: Senzel to Sox
Who cares? I almost didn't post to keep the replies at 0. that's really what this thread deserves.

7/6 Games
It wasn't meant to slam CM. It was meant to praise an 18 year old who is killing it. That being said, I am a little disappointed in CM's play so far this year. Are you satisfied with his play so far?

what's the line on Wolkow beating Montgomery to the majors?
-
Who will be traded by the deadline?
we'll hold on to him to eat innings after Fedde and maybe Crochet are moved. It'll be ugly. I am going to enjoy the next 2 weeks of the season. the Sox are playing like a 75-80 win team right now. after the trades it's gonna be like April again.
-
Cease To Padres per Passan
even during his best year, Cease walked a ton of guys. Crochet looks to be as dominant as any one in baseball. I simply wouldn't trade him if it's not an enormous haul. Roll the dice and trade him in the spring. did you know because of his poor control, Dylan Cease has never pitched more than 185 innings in a season?
