I could see him getting a heavily incentivized contract based on games played.

That’s okay, Vargas is 0 for 8 but he’s ready to breakout.

There’s messy eaters, there’s Jason Benetti and then there’s John Schriffen.

The Sox need to hope both Crochet and Robert finish the season strong and healthy and try to get 3-4 legit bats in return for them in the offseason.

Between Jerry’s lack of desire to spend a lot of money on starting pitchers and Crochet somewhat burning a bridge with Getz and the Sox by opening his mouth, I think it’s almost certain the Sox are going to trade him in the offseason.

Agreed, except if the rumor of the Sox insisting on including Benintendi in any Crochet trade was true. No team probably wanted Crochet unless he came almost free.

A guy who was automatically and undeservedly promoted to GM of this team by a terrible owner is the worst GM in baseball. Go figure.

Pedro, you definitely won’t have a career in baseball for much longer... But you also don’t have a career as a motivational speaker in your future either.

Remember when some thought he would be back in time to play and be traded before the deadline? ?

Oh wow, I didn’t realize they already beat the franchise’a longest consecutive losing streak over two seasons. Next milestones… “In the modern era of MLB, from 1900 on the 1961 Philadelphia Phillies hold the National League record with 23 straight losses.” “The 1889 Louisville Colonels hold the record for the longest losing streak in MLB history with 26 consecutive losses.”

The Sox are going to remove a tiny bit of shame from the lives of the retired players of the 2003 Detroit Tigers.

It would be more like an angry wank like Harvey Keitel in the movie Bad Lieutenant since he hates Sox fans.

Well, it could take that long just for him to get another win.

That would be one of the two possible events involving Jerry that could crash the board…

If he was healthy and with hindsight, Moncada would have been the better acquisition for the Orioles. The Orioles just lost their All-Star 3B Jordan Westburg to a right hand fracture today. There are calls for Coby Mayo to be called up.

Gregory Santos, injured again. This dude is cursed. Too bad the trade return for him looks like crap now.

Now on pace for a 39-123 record. The Sox ability to fail is impressive.

No on earned it more than good ol’ JR.

Of course not, and if you think Garrett Crochet is only worth as much as Trevor Rogers, I’m not sure what to say. But just because a better package of players than Norby and Stowers wasn’t traded for a starting pitcher doesn’t mean a better offer wasn’t on the table for Crochet. The offers for Crochet were no doubt better than Norby and Stowers, but they still weren’t likely good enough. Do you really think when Crochet is ultimately traded, likely in the offseason, the Sox aren’t going to get a better package than Norby and Stowers?

@Lip Man 1, so the Sox are now one loss away from tying their previous record for most consecutive losses (18), but that was across two seasons right?

That looks like a whole lotta Guaranteed Rates.

Yeah, it will come back down. Hopefully his random blowups are more to do with being a rookie than his 91-93 MPH fastball. He can improve his pitching strategy going forward, but not really his fastball velocity.

Yep, Giolito and Lopez should probably be removed from fathom’s list. They returned Quero, but I guess he is no sure thing either. Although he looks the part so far.

Immature response, considering he made a demand that he really can’t make and he sabotaged his chance at being moved to a contender and getting the extension he wanted. Not exactly a brain trust.

Just think about how much time people spend on this site while they are dropping the kids off at the pool. Poopy time reading material is worth a donation alone.
