forget gallo. just sign the Cubans and stroman.

Terry Francona. I still think it will happen when his contract is up. After that, JR and TLR can watch the games together upstairs.

Sure. He'll probably go for Ted Lyons though.

TLR will be another executive VP. You can never have enough executive VP's

TLR for 1 year. Sox will hire Terry Francona in 2022.

JR has always been a character guy. Some times its annoying. some times its refreshing.

live with mazara/engel. spend on pitching.

Has anyone thought they may bring in a very experienced bench coach? Even maybe an ex-manager for bench coach, and give the top job to Paul Konerko?

I honestly think JR wouldn't hire either one of those guys. He's has always had a thing about character counting. He'd buy out Francona's contract before that happens.

Terry Francona: Intelligence, integrity and experience. JR is an integrity buff.

More good news!

Terry Francona: Intelligence, integrity and experience.

wow!

I wish jim fregosi was still alive. the man looked like a leader in his windbreaker. I don't ever remember seeing his jersey once. Even in july and august.

look for a bounce back from mazara. spend cash on pitching to avoid a step backward.

Still only the 2nd most embarrassing DH loss in teams history. Ask Steve Dahl about the 1st.

You're a tremendous slouch Judge.

I some times wonder what kind of person i'd be if I had a skill that made me invaluable. No way to know.

Next year we add Dunning, Stiever, Crochet, Kopech and Vaughn. To me, that looks like a roster to contend for the World Series. Could be a 5-7 year run better than any this team has ever had in 120+ years.

Vaughn can't get here fast enough.

Moncada looks to be just about back. Mazara got sick later than YM. It probably is too late for this year for NM. It would be a foolish thing to release a guy his age because of an unusual illness. Time will tell if he bounces back.

I've seen Eloy make a few good plays in left this year. Decent arm and he runs OK. Leave him there for a few years. 40+ homers makes up for the rest.

DD is apitcher. Cease is still just a thrower.

He's about 3 bad outings away from being released outright.

A valid point. If Bieber continues this for every start though, it couldn't be ignored. He's putting up 1968 Bob Gibson numbers in a lively ball age.
