kitekrazy Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 6 minutes ago, JUSTgottaBELIEVE said: If they’re going to miss the playoffs, I’d rather they be the worst team in the league each of the next several seasons. 2026 #1 pick here we come! LOL baseball fans treating draft picks like it's the NFL. Look at the Sox previous picks. It's like drafting Ryan Leaf an Rickey Williams over again. Stud pitchers are nice but only good every 5th day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 1 minute ago, Paulie4Pres said: How that work out this season? Lol. #10 pick here we come! I'm actually not even sure they can pick #1 in 2026, either? #10 and ~#40 in 2025 and #1 and ~#40 in 2026. Keep building.. Fangraphs already has the Sox as the #2 farm in MLB right now and there are additional reinforcements coming via the draft and trades the next few years. We’ll see where they’re at in 3 years. Tigers won 95 games 3 years after their 119 loss season. Anything is possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I’ll bite on that. Will you go away if they don’t lose 100 games in each of the next 3 seasons? I will if they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
