Right. But like I said, this 2021 team is still a prequel of our better years to come. I think we’re way better than the Yankees on paper so the path to the WS is there. Even this year, which is a year or two early

Maybe. But I think it’s a coin flip whether it’s a problem or a strength. Michael Kopech. Very arguably still the absolute best starting pitching prospect in baseball. This is a huge year for him. If he comes out and proves he’s the best starting pitching prospect in baseball then all my worries go away. It’s a coin flip, which is actually really good odds

What michael said but also in a year or so the Sox might have the following: best CF in baseball best LF in baseball top 3 3B in baseball top 5 SS in baseball Top 5 2B in baseball top 5 1B/DH in baseball top 3-5 C in baseball Legit aces Gio & Kopech with Cease banging down that 1-2 door. The most ridiculous young bullpen ever assembled that won’t even miss a beat when Hendriks departs. This isn’t even dream world really. The Sox have it set up where they really only have to supplement the back of the rotation and RF in free agency...for the next half decade minimum. Okay back to sniffing glue. It’s horse glue cut me a break

Absolutely. People somehow think this is now a 2-3 yr window. We have multiple super elite prospects joining the team this year. We’ll probably win the World Series this year and this team is STILL a prequel of the coming juggernaut

Mariners president and CEO Kevin Mather's Zoom Call
Jerksticks replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in The Diamond Club
Are you saying that because our FO hired TLR that they would look the other way if say KW pulled a Mather? I’m not sure I see the connection -
Knowing Jerry is cheap I totally expected zero spending this offseason due to Covid. According to spotrac, we’ve spent the 7th most in FA. One has to wonder how much the Sox were planning to spend this year before Covid hit. Kinda cool, maybe?

Lol what’s it like having your brain?

Anderson is our giant middle finger. He’s 1st.

Foodies: Sox/Giolito discussing an extension?????
Jerksticks replied to Jack Parkman's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Exactly. And if the Sox wait and Dunning regresses even a tiny bit you can’t trade him for a Lynn-type. It was a risk but I think that the Sox might have seen this as selling high on Dunning. -

Jerksticks replied to Jack Parkman's topic in Pale Hose Talk
That’s not indicated at all. Maybe they saw Dunning as basically a non-contributor -
2020 NBA Regular Season Thread
Jerksticks replied to bmags's topic in A and J's Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Same. He’s legit. Never thought I’d say that. He’s really good. Still jacks up a few hero balls tho... -
2020 NBA Regular Season Thread
Jerksticks replied to bmags's topic in A and J's Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Maybe it’s cuz I spent $99 on the nba package, but damn, I like watching them play. Haven’t felt that way since prime Noah/Rose -
Really cool story
-
Absolutely. I think we’re pretty much a top 3 destination this decade. Hahn has a lot of cost certainty with those brilliant extensions no other team is doing. Let’s let it play out. So far, A+ across the board

I miss the Lovie teams.

I’d rather roll with Trubisky over Wentz straight up with this OLine. And to give up tons of picks- oh my

Dodgers sign Bauer (3/102, opt-outs, 40-45-17)
Jerksticks replied to Jose Abreu's topic in The Diamond Club
Ok so now I’m hoping for this: 3/15: Michael Kopech signs extension ridiculously cheap, like 6/40 plus 2 options, as Gio signs expensive extension. Kopech then rips up ST, mysteriously allowing actual contact a few times (later determined to have been caused by Arizona mound imperfections), breaks camp and finishes second to Gio in CYA. -
Giolito Working on a New Pitch..."The Downer"
Jerksticks replied to Ducksnort's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Are you somebody’s mom I know? -
Absolutely. People don’t realize just how absolutely stacked this team is. This is going to be a truly historic run of dominance.
-
Hell yea. I can’t wait for all the shutting up when we start like 15-2 and win over 105 games.

Sox resign Rodon 1 yr /3m official, Vargas DFA
Jerksticks replied to bmags's topic in Pale Hose Talk
It’s strange right. The general pessimism doesn’t apply to Katz, SOLELY because the hate for Cooper and his dinosaur status is greater. The pitchforks are still fresh with the blood of the Cooper -
I don’t really see why it should be such a dramatic drop off for him- gonna have to wait to see how he plays to get a feel for this

You’re going to win quite handedly
