Superstar Lamar

I think a guy like Rich Hill would have been a great fit and he went for nothing

I'll predict that in a surprise move the Sox trade for an additional back end starter to move to a six man rotation over the last two months in the hopes to limit innings

anyone have any info on why Hernandez would be considered a utility player with 843 of his 910 games at 2B? Is he so good at 2b (as a GG might indicate) that they wouldn't play him elsewhere, even though he is capable of it?

an anti Daniel Burnham move I don't hate it but our probable playoff opponents all seemed to have made significant upgrades for the same small price

That they should try to avoid teams in the playoffs who can roll out three all star staring pitchers and they should try to obtain home field advantage

Frazier is an average player in a career year fueled by numbers that look anomalous. I wouldn't even be sure he will sustain the production in the final two months of THIS season, let alone being viable next year.

I think the teams looking to move players are shocked at the lack of return being offered. They will eventually adjust.

I only care about the return in comparison to Cease+ so that Bernstein can be further exposed.

Dan Bernstein said Joc Pederson is worth Dylan Cease+ so I can only imagine the return we can get for Eaton, who has a better WAR

I don't know but it's the Sox so I will say great

I don't know about his impact on the team but I think it's clear as TA attends his first ASG that the media/fan fears of his ability to play for Larussa were overstated

you are not remembering correctly .221/.250/.385 with 41 K and 5 BB in 128 PA

I see him as a bum slayer who feeds of bad pitchers and mistakes. He may have a moment in the playoffs but the overall work will be disappointing and the price to get him will be high.

salary relief and a non prospect

It shouldn't be difficult for a team to buy up some multi unit buildings near the stadium to house players. The cost wouldn't even be all that great as the real estate is an investment. They could even do something like a frat house with a bunch of private rooms, common areas and cafeteria dining.

In the context in which this "accusation" was done? Absolutely.

I will be happy if his only contribution is giving the team some offense until Eloy returns

I enjoy the shit talking. I just hope they reserve some for the Cub series. Ozzie always reserved his best for those games

It's all the same from my perspective and I don't have a problem with either. You can't be the team that cheers Hendricks' histrionics and then get upset about minor incivilities from other teams.

I thought we cheered it as enthusiasm for the game when a hitter is demonstrative after a home run.

Joc Pederson may be back in play by the end of the week if the Cubs get swept...Bryant as well

Did Donaldson break an unwritten rule?

I'm penciling in August 1 until I'm told differently
