Quin

You get whatever you can for Fedde because he's on the wrong side of 30 and cheap for only one more year. Thinking that Robert's contract is one that needs jettisoning is such a sad thought. Like, unreal levels of poverty franchise thinking going into that train of thought.

I had one in college and I realized it wasn't a normal shoulder tweak/injury when I reached into my bookbag to grab my laptop and could barely lift it.

Just chiming in that shoulder impingements fucking suck.

That's pretty fucking cool.

The full story

And Eloy was #7 when the Sox got him.

We have several!

I'm sorry, you have us confused with a competent org. You'll get Charlie Montoyo and you'll like it.

Hell yeah, we're #1 at something.

@DirtySoxare you gonna take that???

Pedro somehow inexplicably finds a way to start Maldonado at SS despite him no longer being rostered.

I think you could also add Boston in. A package of Crochet, Kopech and Moncada would be the ultimate dark comedy.

The Mets?

I think what pisses me off most about the rules is that revenue sharing teams aren't penalized as hard for remaining in the lottery and can still get competitive balance picks. It needs to be one or the other at this point.

Today I learned we had Jared Walsh

Danny Mendick reincarnated. Before anyone takes that as a slight, Danny Mendick was a fan favorite on the FutureSox board and was then finally breaking out until Haseley killed his knee. So I mean it as a compliment.

For anyone (me) wondering: Cags is 16th, Wetherholt is 29th.

You can post snippets, but posting Law's entire breakdown is a no-go since The Athletic is behind a paywall. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5640375/2024/07/18/mlb-draft-2024-american-league-report/

After Steven Wilson, the new rule should be "no acquiring pieces that are older than the guy you're trading."

DELIVERANCE

Rest in peace Danny Mendick, one of the best hitters drafted outside of the first round that Chris Getz developed.

We're first in being worst.
