When the Sox signed Clevinger, CHGO podcast with Herb and Sean Anderson had some guy from San Diego on to talk about it and he kept saying how much he liked Clevinger and how nicely Clevinger treated this guy's kid. It also seemed like this guy liked him because he was a good interview. Does anyone remember who this was? I'm curious to look at his twitter to see if he has made any comments about it.

Do you guys know if they unlock more tickets each time there is a new presale/sale?

Putting pre-debut injury risks aside.... Does the fact that a guy like Kelley already has MLB caliber stuff and body help mitigate some of the risk? When people bring up his "now" body, that's usually a knock on him. Why wouldn't you want the guy who is guaranteed to have the right size over the guy you hope grows into that?

Ok... That's what I figured they meant. I'm assuming the thought process is that the LH pitchers are worth the risk?

Why do people say a right handed high school pitcher is a bad profile to draft?

Even though it’s supposedly a deep draft, if you are going to go quality over quantity, I think it makes sense to do it this year when there’s only 5 total rounds. How much quantity are we really missing out on? Or am I looking at it wrong?

Shields/Tatis

MVP was the best. Ken Griffey JR for SNES is on my list as is Triple Play and OOTP.... the game I loved that didn’t make it is Legends of the Diamond for NES... you would pick your team from HOFers... anyone else remember that one? Edit: I forgot about High Heat... I had a computer version in early 2000s that I remember was super fun

OP is like Caulfield on steroids

Only one player since 1960 or since Frank?

I remember reading/hearing that it isn’t close enough in terms of reliability to come to MLB anytime soon and that it will happen but not for a couple years.

Yup. The only two options are/were Wade Miley or Dylan Covey.

People have legitimately lost their minds. It’s mid-December. They signed the best catcher on the market. Then they offered their top SP choice 125 million dollars. If they did that during the winter meetings instead of the 2 weeks leading up to the meeting, people would be happy. Sox fans have turned into a bunch of whiny, panicky, wimps. Get a hold of yourselves. The fanbase is in hysterics. And why? Because they signed an average player who may or may not be the 7th hitter when all is said and done?

Jon Daniels has been with the Rangers since like the John Danks trade at least....

If I’m taking back all that $$, why am I sending someone as good as Collins back? The only way I can see that working is if Boston prefers to sends a decent amount of money along with their players.... if it was up to me, I’d just keep Collins and take on the contracts.

Makes a ton of sense.... worst case scenario Boston doesn’t send any cash our way and Sox can still add a piece without reaching an outrageous payroll. We either end up with some rotation depth if we take back the two SPs or we have our OF set for the next couple years and we just need one more arm. Only problem is - I feel like this type of trade wont happen because this could make one of the two GMs looks like a moron in 10 months.

To me, a Price + Benitendi or E-Rod framework makes lot of sense for the Sox. Where would our payroll be if we took no money back?

Huh?

Vinnie Duber and Chuck acted like Mazara was a good fielder on nbcsports.... some people here are acting like he’s awful. What’s the real answer?

Is this the one with Hahn, Anthopoulos, and Rizzo from last year or is it a new one?

Jose Borchardo

Jerry has a smart ass/New York sense of humor that is always being taken out of context. I don't blame him for never doing interviews. This "controversy" reminds me of these scenes in My Cousin Vinny....

How does one even "aim to build a second place team?" He probably meant fans are most happy with ownership when their team is on the cusp and said it in a funny manner.
