Falstaff

I will agree with you that the McCaskey's are just stupid

great memories

I love these Schriffen threads, keep them coming. All that is missing is a SCTV episode with Eugene Levy, Joe Flaherty, and John Candy. I have Joe Flaherty playing Scriff.

As bad as the Sox are I still don't loathe them like I loathe the Bears. JR might be bad but he is nowhere near as bad as the McCaskey's.

I am pushing the chips all in on 63 wins.

Vinny was my fav

Ideally it would be better to trade Robert after if he has a big first half, but the risk of injury isn't worth the wait. Trade him for what they can get and move on.

Losing 121 games was embarrassing, but the gong for Shingo was a bit too much. You can't blame Schriffen for that one.

Good to hear Schreef is working

I agree with you but JR is one of the few owners that has a sweetheart money-making deal on a publicly funded stadium.

I think the Sox have addressed their weaknesses in drafting and development but now they have to show results going forward.

Back in 2012 when the Sox traded Eduardo Escobar, I didn't even give it a thought because of Beckham was locked in at 2nd base. I still am amazed in the direction their careers went. I first saw Beckham at 2008 Sox ST in Tucson and was giving my brother-in-law daily updates. Beckham was going to be the answer at 2nd base, Gordo had the makings of a superstar and the hair to boot. A 1st round draft pick out of a powerhouse college conference, what could go wrong? The only upside is I totally enjoy Beckham on the pre and post and also when he broadcasts from time to time, great guy.

Callis was talking about Montgomery coming over from Boston, he is very positive on him. When asked about Colsom Montgomery Callis brought up his struggles in 2024. I personally thought Sosa looked great at the end of the season and deserves a shot as a starter. Callis thinks Meidroth can make the team in the 2025 season..

I am getting a picture of the starting pitching, but does anyone want to take a stab at who will be in the bullpen and also the closer?

I believe Jim Callis said the Sox have the best catching prospects in MLB after picking up Teel in the Crochet deal. Callis was also very high on Montgomery's upside and thought Meidroth could be on the roster 2025.
