Paid $1.75mm this year. Sox wouldn't, would they? Expand They pretty much gor what they paid for. He stayed healthy and ate innings every 5 days. That's what you get for under 2 mil.

fathom Posted September 2, 2024 Share Posted September 2, 2024 I don’t think it’s possible to have less power in a big league lineup. It’s like we have 9 Getz’s in the lineup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTB Posted September 2, 2024 Share Posted September 2, 2024 (edited) This has been an amazing inning. I turned it on just in time to see the pitch sail over the catcher’s head. Followed by the pitcher falling down and hitting the batter. The coup de grace…brain fart by the pitcher with the high throw to shortstop and everyone safe. It’s a high school team. Edited September 2, 2024 by JTB A bad HS team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
