  1. So if the current International Signing Period ends tomorrow, does that mean on October 16th we can start hearing big names announced for teams again? Is this when we should expect to hear who the Sox have signed or are "heavily favored" to sign? EDIT: Looked it up. There is a 3 month freeze essentially from Oct. 15th until Jan. 15th when the next signing period begins. Carry on.
  2. Totally forgot Ozuna only signed a 1 year deal. I would say you really need to get one of Springer or Ozuna. Then go after a veteran SP (trade options probably), and a reliable RP like Hendricks or re-sign Colome.
  3. I would prefer he be more the Chris Sale type than the Josh Hader type, but yea, a Hader-guy for the playoffs who can cover 2 innings every other game works for me.
  4. Before we all start complaining out how bullshit our losses were, I do have a question about who I should take #3 overall tomorrow night. We are a Keeper league. 1 Keeper. 0.5 PPR. ESPN makes them count as your 1st RD pick. Also, because I'm commish and have to make sure everyone actually sets a keeper, I can pretty much tell who the Keepers are likely to be. That being said, my keeper is Dalvin Cook. So when my choice comes up at #3, based on who I am assuming will be kept and the FA pool, at #3 I should have my choice of 3 of these 5 top rated guys... Elliott Barkley Edwards-Helaire Michael Thomas Ekeler I'm thinking of ranking them in the order above. My complete lack of knowledge of Edwards-Helaire scares me, and I usually get Mahomes every year anyway, but what I'm reading about him sounds very exciting. I just feel like maybe I should take the sure thing of Elliott, Barkley, and maybe even Thomas over him.
  5. Yup. I've been a Tesla fan since about 2008 and tried to convince my dad to buy some TSLA stock back in like 2014 or so when the stock was like $170. He didn't. But then finally sometime last year he got in when it was back down to around $190 a share, but then he got freaked out and sold it at $210. Whoops. Meanwhile, a guy I work with bought a bunch of share at like $680 recently, so he's doing really, really well right now
  6. There is no way Steiver and Mercedes get Lynn back when other teams are allowed to give better offers.
  7. I could be thinking of someone else, but I thought I had heard that Lux was not even impressive defensively at 2B this spring/summer, and was part of the reason he was sent down. So him playing SS just based on skill alone might be a bit dubious at this point.
  8. Thursday is the first day that Madrigal can be called up without costing the Sox a year of control. What are the odds they don't even pretend to hide their intentions and just call him up prior to Friday's game? Or will they wait until the Brewers series on Monday figuring they can get past the Royals without him just fine?
  9. Moncada, Ruiz, and Mazara have been the only positives so far.
  10. You don't need to "force" the issue when you are already the best available option.
  11. What a sad situation for all 3 individuals involved. Ugh.
  12. I asked me soon-to-be-wife about him and she loves him!
  13. The road trips I have done have never changed our route because of charging, or affected our destinations, but it obviously adds time to the trip. Last time I went to my buddy's house in Nashville I left Northwest Indiana I stopped for the first time south of Indy (150 miles, charged for 30 minutes), a second time in Louisville (110 miles, charged for 25 minutes), and then made it down the rest of the way to Nashville and then charged at his house in to a 110v outlet. So about an hour of charge time. That was also in the winter though, when range takes a hit. I'm doing the drive again in a month and I can make it down to Louisville on a single charge and not have to stop in Indy at all since the efficiency is better in the summer. But as these chargers start changing over to V3 chargers, the charge times are pretty much cut in half. You get back 150 miles in only 11 minutes.
  14. I never took it. Been working 40 hours through this all. Just doesn't seem right to do that to the company, especially when $990 is still a pay cut and won't help me earn sick time, vacation time, 401K, hazard pay, etc.
  15. My employer has allowed employees to take the last 4 months off and still file and collect unemployment. $990 a week to stay home and know they have a job waiting for them whenever they wish to come back.
  16. Fans of Vanessa Morgan apparently think that they are getting a divorce. None of her social media posts recently have involved him. Hope whatever it is he finds peace with it and this gives him enough time to clear his mind and come back next February.
