SoxAce Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I would've just put Tim on as he's the Sox best hitter so far but hey.. you're up 9-0. Whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradMc Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Hahn must have snoozed through the scouting courses during his matriculation at Kellogg. Thank goodness there wasn't another Tatis Jr to barter away for Nova. And what's really ironic is had Tatis Jr. still been in the Sox org, no way would Reinsdorf allow him to play at major league level at 20. Robert for all intense and purposes should be up here now. Cease too. Won't happen with that owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moan4Yoan Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) Nova ($9 million) Alonso ($9 million) Santana ($4.3 million) Jay ($4 million) It all adds up to BAD. Who would you rather have for $26.3 million? I’m sure there was a better option than this pile of crap.

He's going to bet on himself. Next chance will probably be in the offseason at a significantly higher AAV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t give the proven player Machado $50 more million guaranteed but will throw away over half that amount on guys we hope will be DFA’ed a month into the season.

How the hell can you keep this staff when the Sox want to be competitive? They don’t compete. Perfect manager/pitching coach to hunt for draft picks. They really gave up 5 runs in exchange for 3 outs. Pathetic. They pretty much conceded the game again in the early innings. They knew Nova had nothing after the third homer. It went from 7 runs to 9 and game ova. He shoulda been lifted after 7th run but that's still too many to come back from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would’ve rather thrown that $18 million towards Machado or Harper than a reliever who may not even be here when the Sox are competing.
