One rumor out there is the Phillies want Crochet. Sox seem to like Andrew Painter as the lead guy. Would this board go crazy if the Sox trade Crochet and not get back a big bat? I'd be mad, but better a really good pitcher than another Vargas.

If he hits .150 and is out of options, he will get DFA after 3 months. If he can hit .220, maybe they stick with him a few years. Such an unbelievably bad trade. Jeral Perez better be a 7-time all star.

Congrats to all on making it through the worst season ever until next year.

Amaya not gonna stay on the 40 all off season, right? He is not anywhere close to an mlb player.

Gus Varland looks like a potential DFA this winter. I mean, half their bullpen looks like that. I wonder who they keep.

Soroka has been a different guy out of the pen. I would not be opposed to bringing him back. I wonder what the price is gonna be and if he's gonna try for one more shot as a starter.

That's a 30 game improvement. If Steve Cohen cloned himself and the clone bought the Sox, you couldn't spend enough to win 72 games. The Sox have 0 decent position players. It is gonna be a long slow climb to mediocrity.

In AAA, I liked DeLoach more than Fletcher. I'm starting to feel that way in mlb. Fletcher is a very good defensive RF. Not sure that matters. DeLoach has a shot at being an average big leaguer. Neither are Jake McCarthy, but maybe DeLoach can be something?

Record. Set.

Any chance they non-tender Vaughn and try Vargas at first? Admittedly he doesn’t hit enough to play 1b, but on the bright side, he doesn’t hit enough to play anywhere else either.

Chuck said Ozzie would be there. No idea whether Hurt will be coming with. Pre and Post so much better than the actual games, the question is really should they bring the team with them.

My Dad didn't take me to my first DeWalt drill. End of story.

If you simulated a 162 game season of just the Sox vs. the Angels, would baseball as we know it simply cease to exist. One of these two is the worst team I have every seen and it is both of them.

I look forward to Fletcher’s future career as a defensive replacement.

Please. They are present utility players. No projection necessary.

So happy for DJ Gladney. Hard worker who has a great attitude. He’s been a fan favorite at every level. Hopefully they get a hitting coordinator in here who can help guys like him reach another level in performance.

Another nice outing for Pallette. 2 no-hit innings with a walk and 3 Ks. Franklin has been solid all year as well.

Some completely unknown, replaceable reliever blowing a game against a truly awful team in the 7th inning would be a fitting way for them to set the record. Their ERA in the 7th and 8th in close games must be about 15.

Wow. Deep pull, but no. You're thinking of the Big Ragu. He was like Fonzie as an actor/singer/dancer.

I sold him short. With all the injuries and lack of command, I have been lower on him than most. Would be happy to be proven wrong.

I hate Fletcher.

Touki Toussaint gives up 8 earnies in .2IP. Please don’t make me watch him next year.

So many interchangeable 4A players. Kuhl hasn’t been great, hasn’t been awful. Soroka was awful in the rotation but okay in the pen. He’s a FA in a little over a week. Not sure having him on the roster matters. Sox could have 20 spots open on the 40 man by November. I do not know how they are going to build this into a 100 loss team.

Barons win 6-3.

2025 is this offseason. He needs to be added this winter, but it’s fine cuz the Sox will have about 20 spots in search of upgrade.
