What do you think we're giving up?

The good news is that if we win today, then after a bad week we return home in August in first place....although as I type this we have Alvarez on base and apparently no one to pinch run for him...perhaps it is time to panic!

Perhaps if we get Pedro wet and he multiplies we can bat him 1-9:)

Steven Wright was pretty bad again today. He only gave up 3 runs in 5 innings but 10 hits and Angels had two guys thrown out at home. Pomerania has not looked good either.

Pomeranz's ERA over 7 since joining the sox. Glad we kept our prospects right now. Welcome to the AL Pom!

That's just one of the most stupid things he's ever tweeted. No team is going to trade for Matusz based on 1 start.

Yeah, it's not like we would be dumb enough to trade for Miley, just silly talk.

Miley done, according to Heyman. He has actually pitched pretty well the past month or so (3.45 ERA). He no hit the Cubs into the 7th the other night and beat Arrieta. Really good start against Toronto before that.

I should, of course, have added pending medicals.

So, what would you do? Other than spend every post acting like you're much smarter than DD?

I would have replaced DD with Brady at the beginning of the season. I stated that.

But to answer your question (and I have posted about 5 times): I would trade for Ramirez and Pearce from Tampa and roll with what we got.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Safelykept · Posted

      Smith and Bowman signed Milb contacts, stop period. which means if they not have 6 years MLB service they make minor league money if they are in the minors. Albert signed a one guarenteed contract, 740k. Itwas A Milb contract to keep him off the 40. Even if he got DFA or never pitched one inning of MLB he still makes the 740k. He was good enough to demand this contract and get it. Smith and Bowman were not.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      By Warehouse · Posted

      Just because you sign as a free agent doesn’t mean you aren’t subject to the rules around 6 years of service time. For instance, I don’t believe Burch Smith or Matt Bowman can elect free agency unless they are outrighted, released, or non-tendered. However, there are examples of foreign professionals being eligible to elect free agency early - for example Shintaro Fujinama last year.  It’s not part of the CBA, but presumably the commissioner will approve that special covenant as part of an FA deal if the player has at least 6 years of experience in foreign league.  It’s possible they would let Suarez combine his 1 year MLB service time (prior to this season) with his 3 years in NPB and 2 years in KBO.  And it’s possible they let Suarez write these terms into an MILB contract that had split MLB terms.  It wouldn’t have been my starting assumption, but it seems plausible.

      Jim'sKid26 ok down in Ashville

      By George Zuverink · Posted

      Here I am checking in. We and our condo on the east side of Asheville made it through unscathed. On Tuesday we flew into DC and moved into a hotel in Falls Church. Our son, Eric, ordered us to make that trip and made all the arrangements because we had no internet and limited cell service. We expected to stay a week while electricity is restored and then we learned about the dire water situation. We are moving in with Eric and his family who have been supporting us in every way possible, anticipating needs and things that would help us. Our daughter, Robyn, and her husband, Ken live about 30 miles west of Asheville , Waynesville, had no damage, never lost power or water. Today they rescued my car from $30 a day hourly parking, threw out everything that was beginning to make the condo stink and tied up  a few ends we left loose when we left Dodge in a hurry. They are, collectively, the loving, supportive family everyone should want and have .

      At least Joe Jackson seemed to be a decent human.
