I listened to about 2 minutes of this interview and had to turn it off. He started off saying Reinsdorf wants nothing more than to win, and that he has a deep love for the fanbase. Couldn't take him seriously after that.

its a shame because in my OOTP game he hit 50 bombs in his rookie year and put up a 1000 OPS

The only FA signings that are coming here are desperate ones, or vastly overpaid ones. Thats it. Who the F would want to join this organization with how bleak its future is? With all the drama and bad rapport over the last few years? Id stay far, far away. Wheeler and Harper have to be very happy they didn't sign here.

Non of the top pitchers are going to come here because 1) Jerry 2) Why would anyone want to come here

If this happens viewership will drop another 40%

It does for me, I always cheer for cold weather stadiums. Domes suck. West coast sucks. Go Phillies

I hate the man but Jerry looks fantastic for 87. He’s got another 30 in him

So happy for Jose, I’m sure he’s in heaven right now after the season he had

This wont be a popular opinion, but I find it sad that our fanbase on Twitter and elsewhere is celebrating the "Leury Game" like its some meaningful moment in Sox history. The crowd was awesome that game, but how many other franchises would celebrate a meaningless ALDS game? The other 3 games where just painful beyond belief. Game 4 was especially embarrassing when our fans were cheering on hurt Astros players and throwing trash on the field. The national coverage on that wasnt favorable. I never want to think about the 2021 playoffs ever.

Those Orioles were right, they didn’t need pitching at the deadline. I hope all the prospect hugging was worth it.

pick up his option, hope for a rebound and then trade him at the deadline. I dont get why you would just let him walk this year. We have so much money coming off the books and nobody worth looking at in the minors (Montgomery isnt ready) at SS.

Surprised it wasn't more. I wonder how far its going to drop next season? When was the last full game you watched?

If its consensual its not wrong, and there are plenty of women who are into physicality. I can assure you someone you consider very stable and "together" in the head is into some fucked up stuff.

I dont get people who say he shouldnt be allowed to pitch in MLB even after this. So hes an asshole, yeah, but there are plenty of assholes in MLB. He might be pervy, so what, hes an adult and looks like his encounters with other adults were consensual afterall. Crede had sex with hundreds of women in 2005 alone and hes a hero. TA got laughed at for having an affair, but nothing more. There are countless of unfaithful womanizers in MLB that are celebrated, like Bartolo Colon. I get that teams wouldn't want the PR hit, but this is a little tragic. His MLB career ended because he trusted the wrong booty call. And for her, i wish he did go through with the counter suit, because shes making it more difficult for those women who actually go through abuse. Just a terrible mess.

they probably believe we will compete next year too

A 12 reply game thread, is that the lowest?

We will be lucky if Eder can even get us 2 WAR in his career

We aren’t going to see a winning season for years

Was calling Jake Eder a failure of a prospect premature? Yes. I admit that. But for every player like Burger who overcomes a string of likely career ending injuries, there are 500 others who dont. Right now Eder is closer to being Alec Hansen than he is Chris Sale. Even if he turns into the latter it doesnt make the trade any less ridiculous in 2023.

Link to the thread so I can see my comments please, i didnt think of him as a bust, rather thought he would never play baseball again due to TWO ACL tears. and that doesnt change the fact that the Burger trade was awful. You can look back at old posts to feel better about this trade, and to feel superior to everyone, but it doesnt change the fact that we traded a 3 WAR third baseman on cheap contract for a reclamation project that is currently getting smashed to the tune of a 1000 OPS in AA.

There’s a good chance Eder doesn’t even get 3 WAR in his entire career, that’s not “giving up” it’s just facts

We gave up a 30hr hitter for a failure of a AA prospect, mercy

I’m friends with a former Sox player, his stories about Crede were SHOCKING

It starts with him, I doubt he gave a s%*# until now. No way we up his contract for 2025, he knows it.

If you are a season ticket holder, you don’t renew, and you shame anyone who does
