Add Cooper to the list and that's the trio that needs to be gone. I know this is a rebuild. I didn't expect the sox to win more than 75 games this year. It's game 101 and we keep seeing the same mistakes over and over!! When is enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is that I think the Twins are peaking over the next couple years and the Sox are the likely division favorite starting in 2021. Could be earlier if the league begins to regularly test the Twins for ped's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people see through that scam and will pick the other team. Yep. The Sox think they can sign FA's at their price and then are left standing there with their schvonce in their hands. No top free agent is going to sign a deal with incentive-based garbage over guaranteed money. The Sox are ridiculous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no legitimate excuse for failing to land what we need. And the fanbase should fucking riot if it doesn’t get done. Potty training time was the Machado pursuit last offseason, now they need to get serious and drop that heat square in the bowl. Misses are no longer acceptable. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well remember how KW was confused that Machado took the deal with real money attached instead of something with maybe more money. I await the same leaks to nightingale, the same mystery deferred reinsdorf bucks, and more pitching other things besides money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way this happens is if the owner changes. If you cant outbid the San Diego Padres for Manny you wont outbid anyone for anything. the only hope they have is to jump on a secondary FA while the primary FAs are being courted by the big boys.

caulfield12 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) If Adam Engel is the excuse not to add a real outfielder next year...let’s not forget his OPS was a pedestrian 708 entering this game.
