I doubt that is enough to make him want to sign with the worst team in baseball.

@fathom be sweatin’… 😓

Rumor is Triston Casas for Luis Castillo.

Here’s MLB’s updated list: https://www.mlb.com/milb/prospects/whitesox

There’s probably a higher chance that Getz will sign Mike Clevinger for a third straight year, prompting @Balta1701 to leave the forum for another season.

Peak mlb poopline 💩 Paging @hi8is…

I wouldn’t be surprised if that is Getz’s target, as well as expecting Montgomery to eventually be at 3B. Sadly, I doubt Jacob Gonzalez is our SS of the future.

“There are reasons Montgomery went 12th in the draft. The health thing is a bit of a concern.” Did Montgomery have any health issues other than the broken ankle he sustained with an awkward slide home against Oregon? He was talked about being drafted as high as in the top four. The draft was right after his broken ankle and he was still drafted 12th. Weird thing to say.

Anyone else having déjà vu? 😶

He’s shown at least 10 homer power a season in the minors that last two years. I’m not convinced he’s Madrigal yet. Hopefully he keeps taking his vitamins and protein powder and ends up more like Pedroia.

Maybe the pressure is finally on Hoyer, but the guy has been Elias-like reluctant to trade away his top prospects.

As long as everyone knows it doesn’t mean Bowel Movement.

Jerry is going to give Jose Abreu a lifetime contract as player and then hitting coach once he retires. Jose will work with all the position players.

Any one of their #3 through #5 would be fine. F*** it. Nut up, Jerry, and send some money with Robert to get the best return. It’s not like the Sox are going to spend anything of consequence this offseason.

I’m not buying it yet. They will get a starter. Will it be enough? Maybe not. But they didn’t just sign Tyler O’Neill for $49.5 million and Gary Sanchez for $8.5 million to come up short on their primary need.

Unless they were getting Anthony, I think 2 through 5 is a crapshoot, and they got 2 of those guys.

Very happy Getz didn’t accept some combination of Abreu/Casas/Wong.

Unless Houston’s demands don’t come down, I don’t think @fathom has to sweat Kyle Tucker being a Cub…

The only mega prospect the Red Sox have (Anthony), they weren’t trading.

Boston will pay up and all will be well.

Is there ever any nagging anything from a healed ankle fracture?

Upcoming free agency $$$ that Jerry doesn’t want to pay for.

Will Benny the Bull greet Sasaki at O’Hare Airport? Will the Sox have Sasaki’s name and jersey number displayed on all the video boards at GRate? Gotta break out all the stops…

What a shame. I wonder when it happened. I remember when he called into the Sox post-game last season and talked to Garfien, Ozzie, Frank, etc. and he seemed really out of it and not his usual quick, witty self. He sounded tired and out of it.

Recency bias? 5 bad postseason innings doesn’t take away from Cease being an ace during the 2024 regular season in 190 innings.
