Trayce like Ace

Dodgers fans pronounce it Leury

Serious question, does anyone remember where the “TNT” nickname started for Trayce when he was on the Sox?

This trade is real good - like it a lot. Like a lot. These are live arms.

Trayce Nikolas Thompson his initials. You probably know that but someone along the way started using it.

He's hitting .155 and making almost $1.5 million. He's doing OK.

Our Sox will be sure to make the necessary adjustments and tweaks for Trayce so he produces big time, since the Sox are so great at player development and fixing players.

Right, I was wondering the origin.

Sox social or somewhere else on the internet 

All these pitchers leaving and no team wants their favorite catcher?? Damn it

One thing Hahn can do: tear it down.

That’s another return that is simply much better than what you’d get in an average deadline market. 

Jerry likes it so much Hahn’s extension is assured. 

Can’t wait for the 2030 teardown.

One more point about Nastrini and Bush vs. Burke:  Notice how both those guys were in AA and the Sox pushed Burke to a launching pad in AAA without a full or dominating AA season?  I am not hating on Burke. It's possible that a saner org would have developed him properly.

Nastrini had TJS in 2019

 

edit: maybe not, I saw someone on Reddit mention it but can’t find anything on the web.

Fairly certain Yaz won't be playing for the Sox by the game on Tuesday night.   Gotta imagine someone will grab him, but Sox going to have to eat some $.

like the Org Bush came from that pushed a 20 year old to AA and skipped A+?

I don't think challenging players is the problem this board thinks. It's just a thing we can tangibly point to. The problem to me is we don't prepare them at all for each level or progress them with better preparation.

Apparently his 2019 surgery was for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and I'm not expert enough to offer more details than this.

I counted 1 pitch in the entire sequence that caught a piece of the zone, you can get minor leaguers to swing consistently for pitches out of the zone, but i see a lot of free passes in that video

Never mind that s%*#. Get the best prospects you can, no matter where they play or at which level. Let the major league team get absolutely pounded every day. Makes no difference.

It was mainly tongue in cheek, but its amazing how this organization doesn't even have AAA filler options at SP

Good job getting another potential 4 with alot of upside and a BP piece to help backfill in 2024 the 3 that left. Maybe get another good BP piece for Yaz.

Now send Burger to MIL for Tyler Black & Robert Gasser.

Maybe Hahn is doing the rest of the paperwork on this one, and is gonna claim Justin Bruihl off of waivers, since the Dodgers had to make room on the roster. 

The fact that we traded for Trayce Thompson is actually hilarious.
