    Not our Star Blazer: Yamamoto signs with the Dodgers for $325 million, 12 years

    In the 17 seasons from 1977 to 1993, when the AL East had seven teams, the Sox finished 5th, 6th, or 7th seven times. Is that all that different than finishing 5th in a five team division? The pre-FSG days were not exactly all roses and show ponies, and there have been plenty of 3-4 year...

    Not our Star Blazer: Yamamoto signs with the Dodgers for $325 million, 12 years

    Confirmation that he’d signed with the Dodgers happened less than 24 hours ago. Why is it so hard to admit we know nothing about what the Sox offered other than that one tweet suggesting it was over $300M - which may or may not be true, of course? Let’s just breathe. The notion that...

    Huh? Source? Do you know something we don’t? Oh, wait, you don’t. You have no earthly clue what you’re talking about.

    Hmm, I dunno, 86 years sounds about right. Worked out okay last time. (I know, I know, you said “contending” not winning, but seeing *that* exact wording on *this* specific message board was just too rich to let slide. It’s like we’ve forgotten who we are. Thanks, John Henry.)

    Upon hearing the news today, I immediately wondered if (a) someone in the front office had seen this video and (b) how quickly this video would appear here on SoSH: View: https://youtu.be/avpxsR2wH7s

    Did you already sell off your Rising Stars pack? I’ve been holding mine to see if the Maledon winds up being part of a coming challenge. Looks like his value has settled into the mid $500s, which would still put me ahead...but I get the sense that value could triple if and when the relevant...

    NBA Top Shot

    Got one! There were around 2,000 left when my turn popped up. I pulled Theo Maledon as the rare Rising Star, and I have no idea what it’ll be worth. Also got a LE Giannis with a serial number around #500, which looks like it *could* be worth four figures. Also got a Donovan Mitchell, a...

    I managed to create an account between the outages last night, and then grabbed a single moment as required earlier today. So I believe I'm all set to try and jump in line for the drop today. Any tips on how best to get through? Should I go with an ethernet connection to maximize speed? Hop on...
