The funny thing is that everyone over on r/baseball loves that 2005 team, except Sox fans. We have the shittiest fanbase in baseball.

Props to Kenny Williams. Anyone who says the 2005 team was "lucky" is a fucking idiot. That team was really, really good and I'll always be thankful. Watching them was the greatest sports experience of my life. On to the future.

This is the dumbest fuckin thread I've read here in a while.

There's a photo of him kissing her neck as they take a selfie. She looks like a 14 year old wearing make up. This looks really bad.

Saw the photos. She looks 14.

Bridgeport is thriving and becoming the next hip neighborhood in the city. It would be insane to move the team. Just put a good team on the field and the rest will take care of itself.

You could say the same for every sports dynasty.

How can you spend multiple hours a day on this board and not know what league Montgomery is in?

I have absolutely no interest in reading celebrity gossip articles about a baseball player and his relationships. Just like Frank, Anderson has been treated terribly by this fanbase and it's incredibly embarrassing.

Couldn't agree more. The way Anderson is treated reminds me of how poorly Frank was treated by this fanbase. Sox fans suck.

This is most likely it. The Sox basically used this money to sign 2 kids the Dodger already signed. It's better than holding onto it.

Any time you can get a top 100 prospect for Burger, it's a good trade. Jake Burger is not a good baseball player.

Yeah, I forgot to add that now he's in the NL and can't play defense. I like Burger, but we turning him into a top 100 prospect is a net positive.

I'm sure a 240 lb 27 year old with 2 torn achilles and a career .290 obp is someone they identified and had to have.

The way the real world works is that when you have contacts within an organization, you reach out to them and go from there. It sounds like Ng knows Kenny, and gave him a call. This is the way business is done in the real world. Shocking, I know.

It's almost like in the business world, people reach out to their contacts.

Hopefully Burger doesn't enter that Puig/Tatis territory where Caufield is so obnoxious and unlikable that you start hoping the kid fails.

Am I the only person who thinks it's crazy to have a strong opinion on Jake Burger either way?

This really comes down to Sox fans having an affinity for fat white kids with power.

Burger is a nice story and all, but we just got a LH starter prospect that throws 96+ with a ++ slider. How could anyone possibly complain about this?

The sunk cost fallacy is strong in this thread.

Who compares Eloy to Frank? They're completely different hitters. Why does any of this make you angry?

What in the hell is wrong with you? Fuckin weirdo.

Except he's 6'2 with 55 grade power and a 55 grade arm. So, basically nothing like Nick Madrigal whatsoever.

I apologize for making it personal. I was out of line. However, I saw that Lip liked your post and it's making me kind of regret apologizing.
