    Grissom might be worth the wait.

    Curious what people think about bringing down players

    Sorry, this is flat out wrong. This is a year of a kid's development. If a kid is placed on a team, and the parents pay the money, the expectation is that that team will move forward as selected, and it's the coach's job to make the players on his roster better. This isn't MLB, where you can DFA...

    Curious what people think about bringing down players

    I coached club volleyball for many years, so I have a couple thoughts about this. Who made this decision? The club director? The coach of the 2's team? Lots of club directors have narcissistic personality disorder, and all they care about is every team winning and getting their players...

    Beat the Giants today Maye 1

    There's a better chance of him getting injured than making an error. This is, after all, the '24 Sox.

    Water. This is pretty damned cool, playing this well.

    Beat the Giants today Avril 30

    Any mention of Jonny Miller and I have to repost his impersonation of Vin Scully. The Spanish and Japanese ones just slay me. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqe8uq9BWVc

    Why? RHP, and he seems to be heating up.

    Beat the Cubs today Avril 27.

    Spin-rate Colton Brewer is exactly as I remember him.

    Let's Lay Off That Throttle

    Since this thread has returned, I thought we could talk about the big canary-in-the-coal-mine moment will happen in the next week, when a couple of first basemen have May 1 opt-outs. Are the Sox going to spend money or resources on Garrett Cooper or the (large) rotting corpse of Ji-Man Choi, or...

    April 26--I hate the Cubs

    4 years, $50 mill. I don't know about you, but I'd rather have the 'Fenway Experience' than have to shell out that kind of cash. That's sarcasm if you didn't catch it.

    April 26--I hate the Cubs

    Any of you who still think Bobby Dalbec is a major league player are just fooling yourselves.

    April 26--I hate the Cubs

    Remind me again why we didn’t sign Imanaga?

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    Ok, but the bottom line is we're going to see Dalbec in the lineup on a regular basis till then, right? Can Raffi play every day? Is O'Neill ok? If the answer to either of those is no, it's Bobby time. I've been watching way too much college softball recently, so I checked yesterday to see if...

    Cleveland 4/23, Houck Yeah, It's Tanner Time

    Do you really think of The Pretenders as a Cleveland band? I love Mystery Achievement, but the only non-Brit on that recording is Chrissie.

    Man, does Valdez put up some awful at-bats.

    Pittsgburgh 4/21, the Nod Goes to Winck

    Damn. If Reyes gets hurt we’ll have Kenley playing first.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. Transferred to the 60 Day IL on 4/27.

    Me too. I like the extensions. It's the right thing to do. All I'm saying is this front office won't spend money now on retreads currently sitting on their sofas at home. Now it's too bad that didn't want to spend money on Justin Turner, who would have been a terrific addition (and who is...

    Casas has a left rib fracture. Transferred to the 60 Day IL on 4/27.

    Here's what they are going to do: nothing. Because something would involve spending money and there's no reason to do that. Somebody will play first, maybe not well, but we have bodies already on the payroll. Why get more? Dalbec can't hit? Look at the bright side! He's here already. If we can...
