August 29, 20241 yr Too bad Schriffen isn't a GM. He'd pick up Nicky in a hearbeat. He said last night he's really settled into the leadoff spot.

August 29, 20241 yr He really seems to be a guy Soxtalk will bring up in 15 years...."remember when they played Nicky Lopez almost every day that season? Boy did he suck!!!" Edited August 29, 20241 yr by wegner

Which is why we didn't hear about it. Every single awful contract was put on waviers with the prayer that someone would bite, no matter how small. But there was no chance anyone would claim them, hence the no news.

Yeah you used to be able to execute certain trades in August, but the waivers are still wide open. Now it is either claim them, or don't. You can't claim and work out a non-40 man roster deal or pick up some cash like you used to. You either get the whole deal, or nothing.

August 29, 20241 yr Poor Pham can't hit anymore. Nicky ... sad saga. Local guy who people say is a really nice guy made some money in baseball and got the most out of his ability. Just can't hit.

August 29, 20241 yr It’s gonna be hilarious when they call up the guy hitting .208 at Charlotte because they are in a completely desperate panic,

August 29, 20241 yr Any irony to the fact that 3 of the 4 players mentioned in the tweet were all on the Sox in the beginning of the season?
