I should start charging rent for the headspace being owned?

That would be highway robbery.

Narrator: Last time greg made this post, the Sox had a team record losing streak. Let's see what happens now.

1 in 6 outtings being "bad" is a really bad thing. That isn't like saying oh he had one bad outting where they left him out there to die and it skewed his numbers. That is a really bad outting about every 2 weeks.

He's talking about Vaughn and Tork.

Shhhhh

The search function never forgets.

Unpossible

Sounds like the college baseball stats are crazy skewed this year too.

I get the feeling that there are plenty of teams out there who think getting Robert of out a toxic situation might just be the medicine he needs.

I think everyone is trying to say this area is a different vibe. People are looking for positives and hope, along with more deep discussions, not just dwelling on failures and bad days. People aren't looking for the negatives here.

Hamstring injuries and the Sox? What could possibly go wrong?

It's not about one bad start... but back to his one bad start.

It's also about more than SSS. Looking for reasons to jump off of bridges with one bad start is overreaction theater

And that is just from his own players wanting to leave.

Thorpe had one bad start. One. He also had one were he was very good. He also just skipped AAA. Patience.

But think of all the failed minor leaguers he DFAd and traded, while forgetting he was responsible for their development.

Translation: we're fucked.

Podcaster vs people who actually are playing the game. Hmmmmmm. And yes, plenty of people with an incentive for clicks are saying it. Weird right. But the people actually involved said it was nothing. Who to believe...

No one can. It's just bad luck.

And on the IL again by the 4th of July.

Sure, but teams will pay it because dominant left hand starting is worth it. If he was healthy he is looking at Cole money.

The dude is not signing away 3 free agent years for a fraction of his earning potential. Maybe you get him to give up one year on a 3/50, (say 5/10/25) so as to push some money forward and give the Sox a bit of a break on a free agent year, but he is not going that cheap on a mid length deal. 5/75 would look some like 5/10/20/20/20 which is absurdly low to give up three seasons where he could be looking more like 5/150 after the next two years coming at at like 3 and 10 million through arb if he wanted to wait for his powerball number. If he actually gets through the next two season relatively healthy he might be able to push that out to six seasons in the 35 to 40 million per, range. He has no reason to sign a cheap and longer extention. He sees pitchers going half seasons for a lot more money than this. All he has to do is make it through the next two seasons as he already had his first arb year. In your version. He gets a free agent payday in 2 of 7 years. in his, he somewhere close to doubles he $$$ if he is healthy, even if throwing half seasons he has the Glasnow contract as a comp.
