  1. Could be to help cover for Eloy in Charlotte and once he's back from the DL, the Sox drop one of the Charlotte outfielders.
  2. I agree Timmy won't be moved off of SS and shouldn't be. But if he was moved, with his speed and athleticism he would fare much better in the outfield than he would at catcher. Squatting for 9 innings takes its toll on catcher's knees and that would hurt Tim's speed which is a part of his game.
  3. Hard to say. The rumor is that teams are balking at Hahn's asking price which is Soria + Greg775 for a used handmade embroidered jockstrap.
  4. See, now you're straight up trolling Gregg. This post makes zero sense and it's obvious you are whoring for attention. Baseball aficionado my ass.
  5. In retrospect, maybe the Sox should have tried Mike Caruso at catcher.
  6. A) Moncada B) Albies or Torres ?
  7. Shit, why stop there? Make it Abreu for the Tucker brothers.
  8. This is just Abreu propaganda for you Ron. We all know it was you that sat by your computer with endless redbulls tirelessly voting for Abreu to be the starting first baseman in the ASG.
  9. No worries, it will pick up once Yoan goes 0-4 or has an error. Then the wagon will be lighter again from so many falling off.
  10. Thank you Balta. I was about to post a response very similar to this.
  11. Funny how you took my post personally and yet it wasn't directed at you. But hey, whatever suits your narrative. Please enlighten " rebuild experts " like myself ( your words, not mine) as to whom the Sox should have signed last winter. While you're at it go ahead and site for how much they could have signed for, their interest in the Sox, their agent and what team would be interested in them now. I actually do agree that Theo is good with rebuilds and that signing flippable players is part of the rebuild process. Flippable assets is only one aspect of a rebuild though. What's really important is trading valuable assets ( Sale,Q, Eaton), scouting, drafting and developing players acquired through the draft process and trades. Flipping players is an augmentation of the rebuild process but not the most important aspect of the rebuild. There's a much bigger picture for a rebuild than just signing flipppable assets which apparently is the focus of your narrative.
  12. I think the Sox need to invest in rebuild counselors for the fans.
  13. I'm still in awe at how some fans don't understand how a true rebuild works. It's about filling the organization from top to bottom with as much talent and depth as possible to develop them and see who fills the gaps. Then, once the core is established and the gaps have been exposed the team signs and or trades to fill those gaps. Funny how the Sox front office was wrong with past free agent signings and yet is criticized for not signing free agents. While I'm thinking about it off the top of my head... is anyone really dissapointed that Samardzija didn't sign an extension with the Sox or that Gordon chose the Royals or that Cespedes chose the Mets? Be glad those players did the Sox a favor by going elsewhere or the Sox would be stuck with those dead contracts. Sometimes extensions and free agent signings aren't the right choice.
  14. Meh, I'm not surprised. It's been that kind of season.
  15. Altuve against Soria with the bases loaded and no outs. What could go wrong?
  16. Omar didn't start hitting until Smith came along. Probably a coincidence but plenty of us noticed it.
  17. Welp, Soria is broke again. Cue the sky is falling post from Greg in 3...2...1... go!
  18. I didn't set the bar, the Sox did. Yolmer is an easy win at third base since his competition was Davidson, Delmonico and Skole coming out of ST.
  19. Davidson, I hope you were watching how it should be done. Very nice play by Abreu.
