  1. Word! I was all for the Madrigal pick but there's zero chance I keep him over Moncada. Moncada has tools that Madrigal will never have.
  2. I've been critical of Dave in the past but that was a good read summarizing the Sox position. The Sox were able to capitalize on a limited market for Robert and sign him. Who knows maybe things have lined up for the Sox to pull it off again.
  3. This rumor is false for two reasons. 1) it's Bruce Levine. 2) this rumor didn't come from a distinguished cult following on facebook hence it must be bullshit.
  4. Help me Obi wan you're my only hope Help me Obi won you're my only hope Help me Obi won you're my only hope
  5. And Senzel was moved to second last season so the reds have plans for Senzel at second. If they don't trade Gennett by the end of ST they stash Senzel at AAA and trade Gennett by the deadline.
  6. So the Sox are interested in two aging right handed hitters with really no room for them at first base or DH. Oh and this came from Morosi? Ha ha ha ha !
  7. Yeah the rotation is nowhere near being ready to compete next season even if the Sox add a good quality starter. Rodon/Gio/Lopez need more time and Nova/Covey is still the fifth starter.. Ick! You could being Chris Sale back and he still would not be enough to make that a playoff rotation for the 2019 season.
  8. You watch, the big news will be the signing and reuniting of the Chicago White Sox and Derek Holland. ?
  9. Sorry I couldn't make it. I was at a facebook baseball rumor fundfaiser trying to obtain new rumor sources.
  10. Uhg I should have known this. It was in the last TPS report wasn't it?
  11. I'd like to see Facebook login and password added to the regulations to be sure the person posting the rumor is actually human. You just can't tell these days.
  12. Heyward really is a bad idea for reasons already stated. At rhis point ill take Palka over Heyward all day every day. The cubs can keep that shitty contract or continue to try and trade it to the giants.
  13. Wood and Puig have value and the reds had to give something up for that value. Good prospects? What do we know about them? Wood and Puig were bot salary dumps since they have some trade value. Guys I don't see the problem here. For one thing it's the reds, who cares? Secondly it makes the reds better and therefore put more pressure on the rest of the NLC. Third, it's not like cinci gave up top prospects to acquire Kemp,Puig and Wood.
  14. This isn't such a bad deal for the reds. They take on 1 year each of Puig and Kemp for 2 years of Bailey. The reds will free up money a year sooner because of this trade. Kemp and Puig upgrade their lineup and Wood is a big upgrade over Bailey. I like this trade for both teams.
  15. Its Alex Call. He wasn't ready to be promoted to Charlotte and there's a logjam of outfielders more deserving of that Birminagham roster spot. Given Abreu's injuries and the shitty first base defense we witnessed from multiple players at that position last season, I like the Alonzo trade.
  16. The dodgers are paying Kershaw 31M per year so Harper's salary wouldn't be that much more than Kershaw's.
  17. Because some fans " expect " it to happen. Yes the Sox have money to spend and plenty of payroll space. But those are not the only deciding factors. If Manny wants to play for the Yanks, the Sox can't help that. If Harper wants to take his hair to sunny California , the Sox can't help that. The Sox cannot force these guys to sign with the Sox.
  18. Agree with Brian. Fans are setting their self up for a heartache.
  19. Damn, that's fucking close dude! Well done.
