wegner Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I think I'd like the Willie Mays Hays rule from Major League for Goins and have him do pushups for every flyout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Cisnero...we don't want to face you any more this series. Seems like his name should have an S at the end, like the formerly indicted Clinton admin official, Henry.

caulfield12 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Has anyone ordered BUD or Bud Light delivery? That seems a bit of a stretch, but obviously someone is buying...desperate times call for desperate measures, as they say. Let's hope Christian Stewart doesn't date Kristen Stewart. UNLIKELY.

Well considering McCann > Grandal this year and the Sox could have allocated Grandal’s $$$ for desperately needed starting pitching help, I’m not sure why you’re laughing.

Again, they were never ever signing a second legitimate SP this off season, they are not going to displace the young talent on purpose. If you want to argue that money could have been used better on a RF upgrade fine, but Grandal or no, there was not going to be a second major SP signed.

My position was that McCann would be the better investment moving forward (production per $ spent). Rather than signing Grandal, I wanted McCann extended another 2-3 years and to use the savings for pitching help. Need pitching to win in the playoffs.

caulfield12 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Wowww....thought that was fair for sure. Don't really feel like Marshall's success is going to be all that sustainable in pressure-packed situation as the season goes on. Well, got the strikeout there. Picked right spot to bring back the FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does have a lot of Kirby Yates to his arsenal. Doesn't blow you away, but has the right pitch for the right situation usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They absolutely should spend for another starting pitcher this winter (tier 2 type like Keuchel). I just hope Grandal’s money doesn’t restrict them from doing that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
