Balta said Gio was a salary dump like a week ago. Spent all offseason promising everyone Sox couldn’t trade Kimbrel without eating most of his contract. He’s gonna take the most negative stance on trade value possible on all Sox. Of course teams would trade for Gio and Lynn. They’d be extremely sought after if put on the market. They won’t be on the trade market tho.

We have a pretty good closer.

Why fox what isn’t broken? Sox need pen arms and ReyLo has been great. Plus they only have 1 more year of control. Leave him be.

Yeah just IL him after this game with the plan of bringing him back in Colorado following ASG. Get a fresh arm up for next 2 days and keep Martin after the DH Tue. Gives his arm and knee 16 days of rest.

Gotta make sure he’s rested up for that one at bat in LA in 10 days!!!!!

No TA today.

It’s gonna cost more than that. I’d do that deal in a fucking millisecond.

About to be 5 GB. Just insane Sox actually somehow still have a pulse.

Your paragraph on Tony is just so spot on it hurts. It’s truly unfathomable that the folks making decisions in this org just refuse to admit the mistake.

They won’t get a nice package tho. Eloy has minimal trade value until he can show he can stay on the field AND be productive. Two things were 2 years removed from at this point.

By top 25 you mean top 25 in our org? Il gonna need more than that to trade those guys.

You’re not signing a reliever as good as Hendriks and probably not Graveman, both under control past 22. You’d also be selling Lynn at much less than peak value with 2023 control as well. I don’t see any scenario this FO punts 2023.

Trading Lynn, Hendriks and Graveman essentially punts 2023. No thanks!

Heads should definitely roll if this team - with a franchise record payroll and one the FO and org without a doubt thought would win the division going away - goes under .500.

Is sitting Pollock really make this a trash lineup? It’s basically what we’ve seen all season. Giving Eloy a day is fine. I don’t want to see Leury any more than anyone else, but this isn’t an egregious lineup.

I don’t think I’m gonna watch this one. And I don’t know that I can say I’ve missed an entire Sox game when it was accessible (not a plane; or without service) in several years.

The core is probably fine but obviously needs supplementing, most notably a couple good handed bats that play defense well.

Nah. I’d prefer his ass get fired. The ball club needs a spark. A new voice. I feel like firing him could ignite something. Tonight felt different; like maybe it’s possible. It felt like a rock bottom moment.

Fire Tony!

Fire Tony

This is is the guy that almost lost us a game booting back to back plays in the bottom of the 9th. I love Jose. He’s great. He’s a gamer. But he’s not perfect either.

Nice. Now start playing like an all star again.

Is putting him on the 60 day IL and then cutting him the day after the world series more palatable to you? Because that was the other option.

Lol people will look for anything to get worked up about. This is just the way the game works. Burr was no surviving the winter on the 40 man anyhow. Sox still pay for all his medical care. Really nothing changes. Its a bummer he got hurt, and I feel for the dude, but this is a nothingburger.

Ehhh. I don't think it needs to be that strong. Get to the start of the Twins series 4-5 GB, and see what happens.
