AJ Pollock declines option, becomes FA
hankchifan replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
AJ must have gotten used to the weather and glamour of LA along with championship vibe, and could not adjust to the bad vibe of the SoxSouth side. -

Very surprising. I guess a $8M contract would be a washout. However I don’t think he can get $8M. Regardless it is good news. Hahn has now got to get moving to get that lefty OF that we need. -
Sounds good. But please let’s get a manager who is not on Medicare, has a pacemaker, has a drinking problem, has a DUI conviction, is not familiar with the current baseball rules, does not fall sleep in the dugout, doesn’t fall in love with one of the scrubs, amongst other criteria.

Ozzie is bad but not as bad as TLR.
-
Only consolation would be that Ozzie would be better than TLR.
-
Texas has no state income tax.

You can cross off Bruce Bochy from the list. He just signed with the Texas Rangers.

Jason has a good broadcasting voice. Much better than Gordo who has fielded thousands of balls…take a Jasón over Gordo or Len anytime. -
What does our training group say about Yoan and what have they done about it? Is Yoan being made accountable?
-
So they better hurry as Espada also interviewed for the Marlins manager job, and Latins prefer Miami warm weather, and no state income tax in FL.
-
Burger already proved that he is not a good defensive 3rd baseman. I would stick with Yoan next season and hope for an offensive improvement.
-
There has been a lot of noise lately about Ron Washington being the next Sox manager. I hope not. He is 70 and Carries a lot of baggage. We don’t need possibly another TLR. Would like a younger manager.
-
We need to sign a slugger or two. As we are seeing in the playoffs, the teams hitting the homers are the ones winning. Our power outage is why we had a losing record at homer friendly GRF.
-
At least, the proposal is to hit Yas 8 th. I remember in the old days a lot of catchers hit 8 th. Unless, Yas recovers his old form, he should not be hitting higher than 8 th. IMO.
-
The only certainty next season is that we will never see Leury again hitting third or an intentional walk on a 1-2 count.
-
Vaughn is very slow, and hits too many ground balls. His defense in general is poor. This is holding him back.
-
Could have used Schwerber. Hit 46 homers with Phillies and is a lefty. OF defense is not that good but no worse than Vaughn or Sheets. Joc Pederson is also a power lefty OF that signed With SF for $7M.
-
Is Carlos Perez ready to catch in the majors as a backup?

Agree wholeheartedly. Will need to sign the MLB package to not watch the Sox feed with Kasper and Gordo. -

Not many Sox fans are watching in this photo. -

I don’t think I can take a full season of Gordo in the booth. -

I would like to know whether there was talk about removing TLR during the season. It was a most logical move. The Jays and Phillies were scuffling and replaced their managers and now are in the playoffs. We stood pat and basically threw the towel with TLR at the helm. -
Surprised that ex Sox pitcher Jose Quintana started the Cardinals first playoff game and went thru 5+ innings without giving up a run.

NBA regular season is starting next week. NHL Hockey is starting as well. There is Netflix also. You never run out of choices if you like movies or series. Good luck.
