    Cleveland 4/23, Houck Yeah, It's Tanner Time

    You'll need at least another bloop to offset the inevitable pickoff

    Red Sox sign Danny Kirwin from the Oakland Ballers

    Getting Sidd Finch flashbacks....except this time there's a camera inside the tent.

    Three day out check-in

    The argument against trading down is recent history. With rare exceptions, since 2020 teams aren't getting franchise QBs from anything lower than #6. Obviously it's not an exact science, but when the NFL front offices believe there are worthy QBs in the draft, they go for 'em early: 2020 1,5,6...

    Rest in Peace, DaveRoberts'Shoes

    You never know what to say when confronted with a loss so deep and profound. But you are missed Chris, by many.

    Larry Lucchino dead at 78

    Thanks Larry, you played a big role in ending 86 years of existential angst. You might have been a prick, but you were OUR prick.

    4.1 - Easter Funday

    Going out on a limb here, but maybe Breslow and Bailey do know something about pitching?

    Theo’s back????!!!!

    It's not ignored, it's seen in the context of losing Bogaerts in free agency at almost exactly the same time (the Devers contract came less than 1 month after Bogaerts signed with the Padres). And with the dark cloud of trading a popular and hugely talented player a few years earlier still...

    Theo’s back????!!!!

    There aren't any negatives with bringing Theo into the organization, his resume speaks for itself. And yet despite joining an organization that fields a last place baseball team - the sport which is his demonstrated area of expertise - his "most immediate" task is to focus on the Liverpool...

    Theo’s back????!!!!

    Sure, with the non-Yamamoto top two free agent pitchers still on the market, "it's too late" to do anything about 2024. Got it. This is no surprise of course, the "payroll will probably be lower" quote already told us what was coming. Unfortunately it sure sounds like official confirmation that...

    Theo’s back????!!!!

    I'm not as optimistic as most of you. Theo on board is good, no doubt about it. Worst case it's all window dressing, a "look at this" puppet show meant to alleviate the justifiably large dark cloud hovering over this organization. Best case he helps Breslow chart a path for an earlier road to...

    Berj Najarian Leaving Team

    Berj's office had a door into Bill's. He was literally "the gatekeeper", and he's spent 24+ years fending off people that Bill doesn't want to deal with. Not much different between that job and the Admin for any top level CEO. That also means there's a high level of "style fit" necessary to be...

    Is Mac Jones the biggest bust in Patriots history?

    An interesting Mac Jones anecdote in Reiss' latest piece: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39349153/could-patriots-coach-jerod-mayo-revive-mac-jones-career-bill-belichick Belichick was clearly done with Jones based on his bottom-line actions in the Jan. 7 regular-season finale, when he...

    End of an Era: Bill Belichick and Patriots to part ways

    That's a fair analysis, but Bill says he made an offer (which may or may not have been posturing - we don't know) and RK confirms it. I was trying to refute the idea that there was a discussion on reduced roles and they couldn't come to an agreement. The comments from RK don't support that.
