    Quite likely BMont is in Chicago next May. Antonacci might be right behind him. The Sox could hit 70+ wins next year. I wonder what happens with Schultz. If it was the knee holding him back, 2027 could be a breakout year for the big league club.
  2. Sometimes, changing stuff makes things worse. IMO this is one of those times. Messing with league changes won't help baseball.
  3. Not sure I agree. Taylor Schultz or Hagen Smith could be top 100 if one of them puts it together.
  4. He probably should play everyday in the bigs for the rest of the year. Just release Rojas. Nothing against him. He'll just be out of baseball before we're ready to win.

    Nice to see some positive feelings. We still need about 3 more hopes to make the playoffs though.
  6. Just thinking out loud about him. I'd really like to watch him hit on TV. So many guys who walk all the time don't have enough physical tools to handle MLB fastballs and sliders. I'm rooting for him. My son went to the same Junior college that Anton played at. Its about 5 miles from Illinois State U. My kid was about 15 years ahead of SA. And yes, that does make me an old goat.
  7. If Getz thinks getting another Vargas might help, he should be fired right now. Nothing against MV, but he'll never be an assett on a good team.
  8. 3 AAAA losers for 1 MLB starter who is pitching well. lousy trade. Maybe Charlotte will be .500 next year. WTF?

    that makes the payroll 70 mil

    Honestly happy nothing has happened. Trading Taylor could be a disaster. He's young and talented, plus we're two years away. Retain Robert and see what happens next year.
  11. I'll admit I didn't see Colsons start coming. That homer today was a Dick Allen type laser. I thought it was a gap double when he hit it.
  12. If Teel and Quero do no better than they have been doing for the next 8 weeks, They would be more valuable than gold. 23 year old catchers who don't strike out much, hit the ball hard, take a bunch of walks and play solid defense are true unicorns. Hahn and Getz might just be clowns, but they both made at least 1 great trade each.
  13. Really starting to feel 63 wins is not out of the question.
  14. Screw it. Keep Robert unless he gets so hot you get something for him. Then pick up his option and tell him he's here for duration. He has pounded us in every way possible. This kind of payback would destroy him. I really hate every MF who comes to the Sox and quits.
  15. I'm sure a lot of it is simply the losing. That makes it hard to stay sharp. I had a really good paying job that I quit once because I hated it there. Losing 80% of the time probably makes many guys hate coming to the park every day. Say what you want about personal pride and professionalism. Losing affects evey one differently.
  16. So much blame to go around. The most important person in MLB is talent evaluator.
  17. Everclear and Hi-C. Spring break Daytona Beach 1982.
  18. .597 OBP for Fauske. .461 BA. Hits it hard. Good pick. Only thing is, the older I get the less patience I have for high schoolers. But thats my problem.
  19. Only hitting .365 in high school as an old senior to me is a huge red flag. 19 years old in a few weeks. that translates to Mendoza line numbers at Kannapolis.
  20. Sox should have sent Tanner McDougal to the futures game instead. That guy is on fire. He also has the natural ability to make the jump to the Majors. Add him to your follow list.
  21. Would be nice to have some info. The Sox are rotten. All we have is the future. Would it kill these ass hats to post an update? They're as fan friendly as the kremlin.
  22. RIP Lee. Once or twice a decade, somebody says what they really feel. You've got to enjoy it when they do.
  23. I agree 100%. But this only helps.
  24. He gave Bannister a job for life. And now he'll give the Sox a real prospect. Getz simply has to turn down any offers not including real prospects for a week or so.

    Would gladly trade Vargas and a pitcher for Matt Shaw. It's a roll of the dice, but lots of guys struggle at the start.
