  1. we're 4th after trading everyone. any other team could do the same. the trick is to draft and develope good players. that way you don't go 41-121. my january cynicism is starting to boil up to the top.
  2. He was solid in the field. Still, you have to hit something. Seemed like a decent guy. Good luck in the future.
  3. Perez' best attribute has always been his health. league average healthy pitcher is easily worth 5 million. He'll probably feel a little queasy many times this summer though.
  4. probably could have waited for 2 bad outings in spring training to get these 2 junkball lefties free. aaron combs might end up being useful. sad part is if i know this our GM should too.
  5. I long for the day when we acquire players to help us win. Getting guys in hope of flipping them at the trade deadline for a prospect is kinda like drinking Miller 64.
  6. that makes you the smartest poster on Soxtalk by a mile.
  7. I'd much rather play Bryan Ramos than Vargas at 3rd. Before he strained his stomach muscle, BR looked like a MLB player. Unfortunately that type of injury takes a while to get over. The last month of the season he was back to doing what he always has in the past. He's solid at 3b, is athletic and can hit. He's also 2 1/2 years younger than Vargas. Let MV fight it out with AV for 1B and DH. Hell, try him in LF against lefties. Just leave Ramos at 3rd. He is the closest thing we have to a MLB ready prospect.
  8. The guy who voted for the bears has the same agent as Poles, Eberflus and Shane Waldren.
  9. I'd say there's a 70% chance you get your way.
  10. RIP Greg. I remember watching him on channel 5 as a kid. Really good at what he did.
  11. Trade this turkey ASAP. The last link to a disastrous past. One top 100 and a young lottery ticket. I hate being harsh about Luis because he's not really an a#$hole. But that ship has sailed and the quicker we get to 2026 the better.
  12. My son is friends with Vinnie. I met him last year up in Michigan on vacation. Nice, smart young man. Sorry to hear about his misfortune.
  13. He actually did get to the majors last season. .286/.341/.400 in 35 at bats. Just about what he's done at every level.
  14. 2nd baseman from the Detroit organization via LA. He'll be 27 in May. It's not as bad as it sounds. He's always hit and will take a walk too. Defense is solid. He's Danny Mendick but younger.
  15. That's pretty funny. Like JR would ever give someone a bonus.
  16. Take the cash Vlad. Every athlete is one injury away from disaster.
  17. Kinda weird the Sox are deep at 2B and catcher. Don't remember the last time it happened. If new Monty or King George pan out in right, we'll hit the trifecta at our 3 worst spots.
  18. At least one of those guys is from this century. LOL
  19. Monty hit .340 in college with a good amount of walks. Is that good? What did AVaughn do?
  20. Meidroth and Sosa are exact opposites.
  21. Smith's numbers look really promising. Unless he gets hit by a bus, he'll have a chance to make it thru the season in the bigs. Well, our version of the bigs.
  22. I was surprised in the worst way possible when I saw Madrigal running hard to 1st base the first time. Anyone judging his ability should have seen that. Overlooking it should get a scout fired.
  23. only caution sign is they are a bit older. my own feeling is, if you're 23 and haven't reached the bigs, you won't be a star....ever. (mike schmidt exception duly noted). Giving up an elite talent for several good prospects sounds like a chris getz move.
  24. Abreu might be a HOF member someday. Losing half of his career in Cuba wasn't his fault. voting members sometimes overlook stuff like that.
