  1. http://www.espn.com/mlb/insider/story/_/id/23583441/updated-top-100-draft-prospects
  2. If you want to go down the "What he's worth" discussion, then according to Fangraphs, he was worth about $6.5M last year.
  3. Hahn's ringtone, in case anyone was curious.
  4. Maybe the kids who are getting autographs won't see it that way. And maybe the Dodgers aren't in the business of wanting to refund money if they don't have to?
  5. Yup, and a damn shame. For about 4 years now, my buddy and I have gotten a ticket plan with the $7 cheap seats, then we pay the $15 upgrade to sit on the upper level of the bullpen bar where we had our own table, and server. It was a great way to enjoy a game for $22. And now that's gone.
  6. I was just talking to someone about what might be going on with this Joc trade, and could it be something as simple/courteous as the Dodgers/Sox waiting until after Dodger FanFest today so Joc could still attend and interact with the fans one last time? I mean, people spent $200 on a meet & greet with Joc today, so maybe both teams agreed to allow that to happen and not screw over the fans who paid to meet Joc. Just trying to rationalize what may have happened for all the smoke and even names mentioned on the first day, and then suddenly nothing since.
  7. Reports have been that the Padres only want Realmuto with an extension. Realmuto has 2 years left at age 28 and 29 seasons. So his extension could be what, 4 years/$90M? Then if you add in Machado at $210M minimum, you are talking $300M commitments from them this off-season, plus the $144M they gave Hosmer last year. About $450M in contract given out by the Padres to 3 players? That seems like a stretch to me.
  8. Good. He was completely out of touch and had no knowledge of the rest of the league.
  9. No one has said Jimmy Lambert yet, so I guess I'll go with the Sox players who have all picked him to watch out for in 2019. But excluding Lambert, Jonathan Stiever is a guy I will take from the pitching side, and I'll take Gavin Sheets from the hitting side. Sheets just seems like a guy who could suddenly learn how to add loft to his swing and explode. He hit .293 last year, with a 10.5% walk rate and only a 16.3% strikeout rate. Only 6 HR, which is weird for a profile like his, but he did have 28 doubles. Maybe that's just a good college hitter pounding A+ ball, but his offensive profile strikes me as one that could suddenly click.
  10. It's kind of funny going back and reading through the past girls that I've talked about in here. The reason I am reminded of this is because I just found out that one of my exes is pregnant. That makes both my last 2 exes to get pregnant by random guys that they weren't dating. Yikes. I feel so bad for both of them, especially this latest one because she was very likely a virgin when he knocked her up (or at least was her first).
  11. For an Urban Dictionary result, I really expected something horrifyingly gross. But just a Simpsons reference, how about that.
  12. Yes, he was a supplemental pick, and I said "true 1st RD pick". But more importantly....
  13. If Fulmer gets traded, I think this will mark the first true 1st RD pick that the Sox have traded to acquire someone (Sale was the target, not the cost) since 2007's 1st RD pick Aaron Poreda was traded away in 2009 for Peavy.
  14. This makes me want to believe this rando even less. Seems like he is just trying to be funny.
  15. We've already heard from Merkin that he has been working with Driveline this winter and supposedly increase his spin rate and velocity tremendously. Whether it translates, who knows, but if he ends up turning a corner with the Dodgers, it's possible he would have done the same for us.
  16. Hopefully Laz has no where to play anyway, with Machado, Anderson, Moncada, and Madrigal all taking up spots in the IF, but I was really curious to find out what he could be.
  17. Easy. Hahn is waiting to hit the giant "ACCEPT" button on his desk until the crowd starts to file in at SoxFest.
  18. It just makes way too much sense. I hope Manny really did say he is open to playing wherever.
