Contenders usually make trades for players that improve their teams at the deadline. I doubt Flexen, Clevinger, and Brebbia are going anywhere. All three have been bad. Clevinger would have to get healthy and actually pitch well, and even then, no one wanted him last year. Brebbia has been terrible and is earning $5.5 million. If they do get traded, the return will be absolutely minimal. Agreed on Wilson, Pham, and DeJong being moved. Wilson, I could see them keeping due to his years of control even though they should sell high when they can.

Yet another reason to be annoyed by Getz… The Cubs just DFA Yan Gomes today to get his awful and decrepit 36 year old ass off their team after picking up his $6 million dollar option in the offseason. He has been terrible both offensively and defensively this season. The Cubs realized he was done, made the decision to cut him, and replaced him with former Mets catcher Tomás Nido. Meanwhile, Maldonado has been even worse than Gomes, is earning less this season ($4.5 million), and is still a member of the Sox. Gomes: .154 / .179 / .242 / .421 Maldonado: .083 / .139 / .130 / .269

I think tray must’ve forgotten who the Sox owner is.

Good sinker and a good sweeper if he could get it over the plate. It seems like the Sox have some young pitching. Almost every trade going forward should be for positional talent.

I don’t know. In a season that means nothing, would you rather see Cannon decide his own fate or some terrible Sox reliever? ?

I let him finish it at this point. f*** Grifol.

I know Schriffen is a clueless idiot but I am a bit surprised that Stone isn’t saying anything about it.

If only he can start getting that wackadoodle pitch over. Jesus.

Damn, that pitch lol

Agreed. His has tons of movement right to left.

Totally agree. That was a mistake pitch and should’ve been crushed for a homer.

That sweeper is pretty crazy. He needs to start it out a bit further in on the right handers though.

It could always be worse. I think a lot of people forget that the Cubs non-tendered Schwarber after the 2020 season. He was projected to earn $9 to $10 million via arbitration and they didn’t think he was worth it. They literally got nothing for him. 142 homers later…

Cannon throwing meatballs now. If he gets through this inning, it should be his last.

I totally believe it. This is why he was hired. JR loves Schriffen. A new minion to spread his BS lies. I’m just waiting for whatever excuse they come up with to cancel SoxFest.

That was fucking embarrassing. What a clown. Just like Getz.

He’s 100% gone, dude. JR is pocketing that Eloy money.

Vaughn got all of that one, just like the last one. 2 RBIs from two garbage choppers.

Valdez tried to walk all 4 batters so 3 walks is pretty good for the Sox.

Mendick takes the 3-1 pitch right down the cock of the plate and then swings at the outside 3-2 pitch to strikeout.

Maldonado should start more games.

They are an embarrassment.

LOL. 1 run, and they were lucky to even get that.

Hopefully our lineup will get to watch that Micah Johnson interview. They are going to need some business ideas and soon…

I thought the advantage of promoting Getz to GM was that he wouldn’t need an entire year to assess the state of the team, like an outside hire would have?
