Sleepy Harold

My initial comment was more in jest to Sosa's puzzling handling in the first place. However, I imagine a manager showing confidence in a player would help said player's confidence. I think it's quite the conclusion to reach after 36 major league PAs to say that he "can't handle any stress".

FWIW Keith Law believes that Ramos could be an average to above defender at second base (said he's a 50/55 at third).

How could you not be intimidated when you know the manager is looking for any excuse to park you on the bench in favor for his beloved pet Leury.

Christian Sáez or Juan Alvarez could be intriguing names to keep an eye on. Alvarez is cleared to sign, Sáez isn't at this point.

FWIW, all the stats I could find seem to indicate that Reyes is a reliever.

That Popeye write-up made me giddy

The benefit of the seasons is that if the forecast looks like s%*# a couple days ahead of when you're supposed to go you can swap that Tix for a different date. I'm a big secondary market guy as well, use it quite often for snagging additional Tix in our area. Our group specifically just loves our location and doesn't want to give that up.

Yeah I get the frustration in that regard, that blows.

Merk said he's "projected" to be in Kanny with Schultz and McDougal FWIW (all on innings limits of course).

I'll say as a 20 game plan holder, our group likes it as we all know what games we have well ahead of time. Much easier to plan for. It's hard to get four different people on the same schedule all the time, so if a person or two can't make it we bring other people or our family with, or just sell/exchange them.

No Colas, but Ramos cracks the top 50 here, Colson being at 15 caught me off guard as well.

Here's his brief response to bring asked about Colás

Leury still has another year on his deal after this.

Colson checks in at #25. Found it interesting that Bryan Ramos was an honorable mention on Law's mid-season top 60 list but not listed here, unless it's due to that list's different parameters or whatever.

Expand the shower on the LF concourse to every entrace in the park to ensure patrons are rinsed off before entering the facility.

I hope they do but won't hold my breath until they prove it. Those rosters can be pretty big from what I recall. They had 36 different players record stats here between the hittters/pitchers, so maybe they operate it similarly to how they did the Project Birmingham stuff?

Sox should still have around 1.6Mish left to spend
