  1. Going to be real tough to get a frontline arm at this deadline because it will definitely be a seller's market. Our best hope might actually be Manoah coming back in ace form. Do I expect that to happen? No, he wasn't that guy before the injury so it's wishful thinking to expect that he will be after the injury. But at one point he was an ace caliber pitcher, so it's in there somewhere. That or a guy like Yesavage makes a miracle rise, but I don't think that's likely either.
  2. That's still not elite, and he's not even that guy anymore.
  3. God I miss the feeling of having Roy Halladay on the mound. Really haven't had that feeling since, even with Robbie Ray even when Gausman was really good, still never felt that same confidence.
  4. Starting to look more and more like we don't even have a number two in our rotation. Right now we have three threes and some unknowns.
  5. After the injuries last year I think he just decided it's not worth going 100% anymore, I think he's probably going 85 to 90% tops and cutting bases carefully.
  6. Those are the kinds of swings we need from Vladdy.
  7. Good job kid. I guess Bo just doesn't run anymore.
  8. Not a must win game, but a REALLY F***ING nice to win game.
  9. What's that smell? Ah, the pungent smell of manure.
  10. Devers is a dick. His teammates probably wanted him gone at this point. This whole thing turned into a mess for Boston. I couldn't be happier.
  11. Well that was sobering. So we're not the greatest team that ever existed lol. It's still a good team, a well-balanced team once we get healthy. However, we need more frontline starting pitching. We got some dead weight in the bullpen that I assume will be gone once the bullpen gets healthy. It better not be based on seniority. Vlad also needs to be a superstar. I have a feeling this is a dead horse that will be beaten into a fine dust over the coming years. But it's the f***ing truth.
  12. Great play! Little is NOT the guy to put into a basees loaded situation. His command is 50/50 to begin with but he spikes a curveball or two every single at bat, even if he's intending to do it it's risky with a runner on third.
  13. I just tuned into the game before he walked the first batter and I was like "hey it looks like it's actually going well"...f*** me it went downhill rapidly.
  14. This seems like the most predictable outcome of the season.
  15. I know he's only pitched a few games but combined with last year it's starting to look like TV dinner is cooked.
  16. This wouldn't hurt nearly as much if the Francis start didn't loom tomorrow.
  17. Sandlin was rehabbing in Florida I believe but he's now in Buffalo. Yimi hopes to resume throwing off a mound soon but no timetable. Varsho it's just hitting in the cage, but I don't think he's running yet. Santander received an injection and is expected to test his shoulder soon. Three out of the four have no timeline right now.
  18. Ew. I'd rather Laurer, Turnbull and Scherzer. If we upgrade, it needs to be big time.
  19. I wouldn't say he's back to what he was, he's not striking out guys the way he used to, I think he's a notch below what he used to be, not really a whole lot different than he was last year, a little better.
  20. I still think it would have been better off in the long-term by blowing it up, but if you had told me that Kirk would return to an all star hitter and Springer would come back from the dead at 35 and our bullpen which most people thought would be mid would have this kind of ceiling and Barger would fall from the sky...sure. I don't know if you were predicting all that but if you did, good on you. Dunk away. If I knew all those Domino's fall, I would say they have a chance to get out of the AL, everyone knew that the American League was more wide open this year than most years, I had mentioned this myself, that I don't remember the last time the American League was this wide open with so many teams expected to compete for a playoff spot. 12 of 15 teams are no more than 4 games out right now. But, again, if you feel the need to dunk, dunk away. Either way we still need an ace.
  21. Oh yeah, if we're talking actual contender they need an ace. I don't know if they're capable of getting one but they absolutely are going to need one.
