  1. Nobody is saying he isn't "pretty good", they're saying he's not peak Verlander like the resurrected quoted post mentioned.
  2. I was thinking the exact same thing. It WOULD be our luck for that to happen. In fact, I EXPECT that to happen.
  3. No, he wasn't. Dave Dombrowski is on record stating that they told the Sox they would not be willing to give up Devers when the Sox asked for Devers to be included in the trade and the Sox had to come back with different players. In an alternate universe where Devers is the headliner and not Moncada, sure, he was on the table. But in ours, in the trade we made, he wasn't.
  4. They didn't settle for Moncada, Devers was never on the table.
  5. The Franchise record is 13 losses in a row in a season, which we just tied.
  6. Insignificant how? It's still massively popular in Chicago. Unless you mean culturally speaking?
  7. It sure as hell is more fun than 3-22 though, I think we can all agree on that. And not only that, we can't draft higher than 10th, so trying to win makes too much sense.
  8. Goodness, if Crochet's arm doesn't blow up, we've got something special boys.
  9. Sold high as in the amount of whining over trading Burger was NEVER justified (and that we sold at his peak value). The return would be even worse if we waited to trade him this year.
  10. The Sox sold high on Burger.
  11. Or the Ump who wasn't calling the strike zone evenly for both starting pitchers.
  12. You must not follow basketball, because the rest of the world caught up to the USA years ago. Not only that, the US doesn't send their absolute best players anymore (for various reasons), so it's not even close to the NBA Dream team era.
  13. About time someone puts a major league swing on a damn ball!
  14. As an eternal optimist (I still think Justin Fields is much better than he showed in Chicago), even I can't agree with that latter statement.
  15. You have to consider the source my friend. But no, it wasn't really needed.
  16. Never as in past tense? Agreed. Now? I'm not so sure.
  17. I meant more in the way of we suffered through this year to ONLY get 5th. And Cleveland hopped over us to get the 1st overall. Bit of a gut punch for me personally ?
