that's a lot of extra words for "60"

Which was actually the right thing to do. They should do it with Kopech as well. But braindead org doing braindead s%*#

lol YOU GUYS

they need to be signing bounce back candidates they can flip, and also sniping development/scouting from teams like SD, TB, STL, BAL, etc

helllll no

was close to 3 top 110's tho no? splitting hairs at which is the better value, I'd take the 3 players unless we are talking 2 top 50 guys, maybe

the difference is they conned the fanbase that we had to be bad for 3-4 years but it was okay because we would be good immediately afterwards. absolute hubris.

it's one thing to just be perennially bad, but they had us all believing we were gonna be a great team during this specific window and we're getting the absolute opposite of that. i dont think people are talking about this enough, it's going to take a massive toll on this franchise in so many ways, get the popcorn ready

The Sox should, on paper, be worse than last year. I can't wait to see Jerry's cronies try to stop the further hemorrhaging of whatever's left of this fan base. Gonna be a dark few years that's for sure. I don't think any of us have seen anything like what's about to happen in 2024/2025

not to mention, Giolito never had excellent command like Thorpe. Thorpe's command grade is 60 of 70 right NOW, Giolito maxed out at 40/50 when he was still a minor leaguer

what's been his P/AB? does he get a lot of 3-2 counts, etc

when did we get a development system!?

i dont see why Thorpe isn't mlb ready, he has everything in his arsenal to succeed at the major league level now. he isn't going to get better command, or throw any harder, call the kid up

what would you rank Sox farm with these 3 spects?

why? we can't develop hitters. I'd rather trade for guys who can already hit and are at the major league level, then try to develop minor Leaguers where we know they won't succeed here

this isn't a bidding war return

Robert won't be traded til next year at the earliest, but you all know that's happening why even buy a Sox jersey anymore lol

inb4 another epic failure trade with SD

holy s%*# this team is fucking horrible lmao

yep, he had it when he was 18 also

well if 2025 is our target, they gotta first start getting rid of the guys they called up because they're all bad

Im more interested in people being fired/team being sold, than the team winning games in a meaningless season

lmao

probably between 65-75
