Texsox Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Coop will fix'em. There was a time kids when the Sox coaching staff could fix pitchers with potential. Way back around the turn of the 21st century. It was a magical time. It almost doesn't seem real anymore. Now we snap defeat from the jaws of victory. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they paid the bargain price of $9,999 with cash discount in a brown paper bag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 honestly I don't think they have done enough of these transactions given how bad their AAA rotation has been and bottom of 40 man pitching wise. Not gonna s%*# on this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna s%*# on this. I agree. I feel like they could have even signed Chris Flexen (Rockies just signed him yesterday) and insert him right into the rotation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who wasn’t a disaster before he got here. Just that the Sox shined him up and he became a gem. They have tried to do this countless times, I don’t know if they thought they had the Midas touch. They don’t, and it hasn’t occurred to them they don’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooper fixed him up in just a couple of bullpen sessions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Yonny Chirinos is currently in DFA limbo. He has a 4.02 ERA this season with the Rays. Solid option to slot into the rotation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
