  1. I wouldn’t rule out a high school player at all for the Sox. Regardless if they sign Machado/Harper, is probably the last time they’ll be picking this high in the draft. If they think Abrams or Carroll have a monster ceiling, I think they’ll bet on the ceiling and pick one of them.
  2. Kris Humphries representing light skin brothers everywhere.
  3. As long as we get Kris, it’s a steal. I think Kris can run a NBA team better than GarPax and Boylen
  4. Who comes to Chicago first? Ben Simmons or Manny Machado?
  5. IF the Sox sign one of Machado/Harper, I hope they make the press conference open to the fans. It would be a landmark moment for the franchise, the fans should be there to usher it in.
  6. YOURE A MONKEY DEREK, DANCE MONKEY... MONKEY DANCE
  7. Me and my mom have seen Radiohead together 3 or 4 times. She has her moments. *** I am for sure betting the under on the Mariners.
  8. FWIW, Hector Gomez just retweeted Jon Heyman’s tweet from today.
  9. While I’ll be disappointed if the Sox don’t sign one of Harper/Machado, I’m not going to be upset as it appears the Sox have done everything that they could have done to land one of these guys, it’s all that we can ask of the org because the players have to make the final decision. Also, MLB Network is opening up MLB Tonight with an update from Levine.
  10. Hector Gomez has broken some big stuff recently. Definitely worth a follow on Twitter. He broke Cano and Castillo PED news.
  11. if and when the signing is announced, I'm blaring this shit at 11
  12. Batting him second doesn’t even make sense from a development standpoint because you want to make sure that your best players are getting the most plate appearances.
  13. Anderson Moncada Machado Abreu Alonso/Palka Eloy Palka/Alonso Castillo Jay/Engel
  14. If Jon Jay is batting second, you’re not serious about winning.
  15. Awesome, I wanted them to improve the bullpen going into this season. Colome and now Herrera with guys like Jones, Fry, Hamilton and Vieira, the bullpen might be the team’s biggest strength. I expect that this takes them out of the Ottavino race but I still would like for them to sign another guy with high leverage experience like Brad Boxberger.
  16. I dot trust Levine, meanwhile I trust Jeff Passan. He probably won’t drag Levine like Heyman did.
  17. If the market for Harper is the Sox and the Nats, then that’s good news for us fans. Like Steve Phillips said, the Nats offered him $300M, which their owner said was their final offer and they already spent more than half of that already.
  18. Hopefully the Yankees stay true to their word and don’t sign Machado to anything over $300M. That would be a help to the Sox in regards to Harper.
  19. The Giants have a lot of bad contracts. I don’t see them taking on another, especially that Heyward deal at all.
  20. I think we’re past the point of the 26th man/inactive roster spot being a necessity. The Sox could take a page from the Dodgers by taking adventure of and manipulating the 7-Day DL too but to do that they need to amass starting pitching depth.
  21. I totally agree with Covey best serving the team as a swingman. However, I think that he would be a fantastic ‘opener’ for the team. I also think that employing an opener would really help out someone like Giolito. If anyone is not not a fan of the idea of an opener, remember that the Rays employed it for a big chunk of the season and they won 90 games.
  22. All those guys have high leverage experience.
