  1. Yes, a thread with all the promotions would be great. Nick Gordon moving up?
  2. I think my blood just stopped moving in my body when I read that.....
  3. There is a minor league stadium less than a mile from my apartment.....they had nice fireworks on the 4th. Even my wife has expressed interest in going to a game.....
  4. we were picking berries at the mini golf course on Saturday..... And, anyone that wants to visit, come on out.
  5. I would absolutely throw in a RP with Santana and a few million to get a legit SP prospect, yes. 100% yes. If this team was even mediocre, I'd think about keeping Santana around.....
  6. Golly I love this post so much, it is rich with so much goodness.
  7. the Sox are very quick to promote pitchers, and given their success with pitchers, it is hard to question their process. I am surprised he didn't spend 2 weeks in A ball, but I am not surprised they are trying to get him to Chicago this year.
  8. We might really like Thorpe's potential.....but they are loaded with pitching potential, he's been hurt A LOT, and he's never pitched above A ball.......I think if there is a crunch at all, he has to be left off. Palka, Jorge, Romero are, imo, locks. Very likely: Granite (he would be lost, imo), 1 of the 2 catchers (probably Garver), Veilma Also likely: the other catcher, Wheeler (not for me, but for this FO)
  9. Great to see all these promotions! If Palka becomes a legit MLB player, it will be one of the all time great trades.
  10. Would love to see them move the RPs faster......these guys tend to burn out. Great list, now they just have promote them and trust them.
  11. Not much excitement here, clearly......since we aren't getting updates on names and contracts.
  12. Berries of all kind are abundant out here in Oregon. I have consumed crazy amounts of fresh berried the last 6 weeks. Yummy.
  13. clearly not everyone agrees with you...when you look at snubs and questionable choice lists.....
  14. Right......for me this year was about taking a real step, and going to AA and being ok or better is a great step for a 21 year old, imo. Not sure I want him there 3 more years......
  15. Is that a real problem? They aren't likely in a playoff hunt next year....even if they keep Santana and Nolasco....so why not try lottery tickets, open spaces for Gonsalves, Stewart, Jay, and others.....and sign a 1 year flyer FA or two (who you can cut or trade if needed)? I agree on Hughes though, if he pitches more than 40 innings next year I'll be surprised.
  16. It has been an amazingly bad series of outcomes. No one predicted this. It's kind of hard to believe how badly most of it has gone. It's not just the number of things that have gone badly......it is (for me) that they've gone so far bad. We could expect Sano to regress, but not like he was. Or, we could expect Jepsen to be less than he was last year, but not that much less. Mind. Boggled.
  17. Looked like a nice game all around. I like wins.....
  18. Good point......admittedly, when I typed that, I was in the middle of a bad call at work.....
  19. Another nice list! And once Stewart and Gonsalves adjust....they'll be back on the list someplace.
  20. Uh, if I like this, will Molly think I agree, or realize I am enjoying the tone?
  21. Danny Santana is pitching? Wow! Guy can really play a lot of positions.
  22. then why did you read it? I read it as a "fun" exercise", not a real projection.
