8 hours ago8 hr It’s still amazing that this team had two top catcher prospects and two additional catchers with decently hyped prospect status at one time in Lee and Romo and now the team needs a catcher.

4 hours ago4 hr I know the D'Backs are right in the WC Race, but curious if James McCann could probably be acquired at a pretty low cost. Spend real capital on pitching, but McCann wouldn't be a terrible rental.
4 hours ago4 hr I haven't done a deep dive but not sure why more people aren't in on Brady Singer. Since June 1, he's started 9 games, 52.1 innings, 17 earned runs (2.92), k/walk 52/16. Guy will cost very little and offers good upside imo. Could package him and Stephenson and probably not have to give up anyone in the top 10 (post-draft). Would still leave plenty for another pitcher or two.

3 hours ago3 hr We are officially one week out from the trade deadline. The Sox themselves will be busy with seven straight games against the Yankees & Rays and that’s with no off days. Short of a massive blow-up this coming week, I think the motions are already in order for Getz to be an aggressive buyer.Two items of interest here. First, there is a roster move coming today and it will be Hays or Pereira replacing Junior Perez as RH hitting outfielder. Hays is on the 60 Day IL so if it’s him getting the call, then he’ll push our 40 man roster to the full amount. If it’s Pereira, we won’t run into that situation just yet. Either way, we can’t keep both of them and Grichuk, meaning one of them will be let go in some form over the next week.Second, the trade for Urquidy also had a roster implication. While I fully expect him to be just AAA depth as we shift McDougal & Hagen to relief roles to end the season, it does add to the roster crunch. Drew Thorpe is the one guy on the 60 Day IL who looks like they will need to come off before season end. It’s also possible that Hagen, Mason Adams, or even Pallette will need to get added. The real crunch will come this offseason, but I’d expect some fat to be trimmed at the deadline.
