  1. At least Hernández was much cheaper than Kimbrel.
  2. I fault the Kimbrel trade. But it is not one of our worse deals. Not even close to Tatis Jr and Semien.
  3. What did Leury homer have to do with TLR? TLR was ready to bring Wright in the 10th.
  4. You are absolutely right. I was ready to switch to NFL. I was not going to watch Wright pitch in the 10 th two nights in a row.
  5. Isn’t Boras Bryant’s agent? That may have affected the decision.
  6. I think unjustified hubris may have been a factor n the Kimbrel trade.
  7. Right on. It would have been the end of the Goodwin era, and the beginning of Murderous Row. Also a position player contributing every game rather than a reliever coming in every two or three games.
  8. What we needed was a good defensive outfielder with pop, not another reliever.
  9. “Tony proof” with Kimbrel still includes Ruiz, Burr and Wright in high leverage situation. He needs to manage this bullpen better.
  10. Agree. Madrigal complemented our team well as a contact .300 hitter with minimal strikeouts.
  11. Are Williams and Hahn ever going to be made accountable for their bone head moves? Were they also responsible for the LaRussa hire or that was JR alone?
  12. Incompetent performance by these two guys that may comeback to haunt the Sox for years to come.
  13. It was a terrible trade giving up two young stars including a first rounder for a 32 yr old guy that we did not need. We already had a Hendriks. Hahn screwed up big time.
  14. Wow,! Leury has become a slugger this weekend. We tried to give the game away with Kimbrel and awful hitting, but Leury would not have any of that. Glad we did not have to see Wright pitch after all.
  15. Just as bad as the Quintana trade was for the Cubs. Shame was that we did not need another closer and gave two young good major leaguers for him, and what we needed was an outfielder instead.
  16. Can we get Madrigal and Heuer back? Is there any clause on the deal that would allows to do that? Wishful thinking.
  17. Kike is a very good fastball hitter. He can’t hit the breaking ball. Don’t we have a scouting report.?
  18. Both Jose and Eloy are in a rut in the middle of our line up. Robert and Grandal are our most dangerous and reliable hitters now.
