I understand why people wanted Williams over Fields, but man I wasn’t feeling a quarterback change with the holes they had at other positions, particularly offensive tackle. I would have loved them trading the pick. Williams was the number one pick so he has to play like it. He can’t just run out of the pocket and has to throw towards the middle of the field. Be a damn gunslinger instead of a backyard athlete.

Why did they DFA Altavilla?

Williams needs to play like he was the number one pick in the draft. The offensive line needs to not have false starts. Montez Sweat needs to show up in the stat box at all. The team needs actual running back depth. Johnson is going to be here a while at $14 million per year.

That was a non story blown into something larger.😂

Beyond the two incidents below, what are the other chances he’s been given? Those were two separate events though and he was suspended for the first offense if I remember correctly. He did accept blame and fault. Aside from addressing the person on Twitter he got into a fight with and threatened, I don’t know what else he needs to do.

Fair enough. I can see that, but maybe he won’t apologize for specifics or get into the threat and Twitter spat even more. I think he deserves another chance and believe he’s learned a bit from what he lost. But then again, I like Bernstein and want to see him succeed.

I liked it, but I also like Dan Bernstein. At least he admitted he made a dumb mistake. Him and Matt Abbatacola were a good pair in late 2016 and should be now. I’ll be interested in where this goes.

Is Montgomery going to wind up with 20 bombs to finish the year?

Hi Chris!

I thought he was working for a station based in Iowa?

This will be an interesting listen for sure. I don’t want to excuse what Dan did on Twitter, but I always found his post B&B shows and interviews to be engaging. His and Danny Parkins’ absence is really noticeable at the Score.

Dan Bernstein expected to host podcasts for Hubbard Broadcasting Great, the Score hasn’t been the same without him!

I heard a clip on 670 where he got emotional after being asked about the trade deadline. The changing of teams has to be weighing on him. I’m pulling for Houser the rest of the way!

Connor McKnight is a pretty good PbP guy, I would prefer him over Schriffen. Stone doesn’t do much for me, I would prefer to replace him with Plesac or AJP. I actually muted the games on TV because Schriffen annoyed me that much. Now because I don’t get the games on TV, I listen to the radio. We are so lucky to have Len and DJ!

Pick up Stroman!😂

Judging by the way the Sox trades have panned out over the years and given the return for outfielders today, I was okay with them not trading Robert. Yeah he’s got an expensive option, but expensive compared to what with this payroll? And what would they do to fill the void with free agency if they declined the option? Now if they let him walk, I will scratch my head. But I really need to see some investment in this team in the offseason to have faith in this team. Signings like Perez, Rojas and Wilson won’t cut it.

When you said that it reminded me of this scene.

Soroka must just be cheap contract wise, because he doesn’t look like he’s having that great of a year. Seems like it’s a bit of an overpay or they couldn’t get what they wanted elsewhere.

Are you Kenny Williams Manny Machado didn’t accept our offer shocked?

I don’t see as many trades compared to previous deadlines. Houser, Robert and Tauchman are the ones I could see being dealt, but I won’t be surprised if we hold on to all of them.

I hope I am wrong, but I don’t see a ton of moves being made.

Let’s hope the Ishbias don’t handle the Sox the way they did the Suns. That Durant trade left that team barren of talent and draft capital for some time. Is it fair to write to Boyer to b**** about the Comcast deal, where I had them on cable with the package I have, lost the channel and then they upped the package I need to watch the games on my cable package? And maybe see what progress could be made about getting the games on YouTube TV instead of watching them on the TV App or switching to another cable and internet provider which would be a pain?

Historically he has not wanted to pile up the debt but perhaps Getz sold him on the rebuild with a tight budget and tear down, as well as a lack of spending with the looming strike and labor negotiations?

They had Chicago police officers lining the area but I agree that he should have had more security. He sat by himself for a little while until Harold Baines finally came over and sat next to him. I thought, “old money must be lonely sitting alone.” He did get handshakes and greetings from some of the 2005 team though.

Well when you run scrubs out there…
