Hopefully people have realized by now that the logo thing is just parodying Jaguar's new logo. Really shows what a sad state our society's in that so many of us got got by that. :baghead:
I've watched more high school football (3 games) than NFL (0 games) since Brady retired and I have 0 social media, how am I supposed to know? 🤷‍♂️

We overthrow Fenway park if we aren’t over the CBT by spring training
When I read quotes like the ones from Sam Kennedy, it's hard not to think of the words of one of the great thinkers and philosophers of our age, the late, great Scott Hall, who once said the following:

*clears throat*

"Don't sing it. Bring it."

Dodgers and Sox have met with Blake Snell. Could see the Sox pitching team really liking him- he has big swing and miss in the zone.
We'll see.

Every time I read something about Snell in free agency, someone always mentions Snell's preference to stay on the West Coast.

And that preference helps fuel the Sox' nightmare winter scenario - the Dodgers and Giants sign Snell and Fried, who both seemingly have a preference to play out West. Soto re-signs with the Yankees. Steve Cohen then outbids the Sox for Corbin Burnes. The Orioles and Sox both present Chicago with acceptable offers for Crochet, but the White Sox prefer a package headlined by Heston Kjerstad over one headlined by Wilyer Abreu.

What then?

Gotta get creative if all that happens. I think odds are pretty good we land somebody pretty major though, we just understandably have trauma from last offseason lol

I'm not sure I agree.

There are seemingly more teams with the desire and resources to spend this winter than quality players available.

Several teams are gonna be pretty disappointed come Spring Training.

There was a quote in a recent globe article where players and agents think the Sox are going to be a force over the next 5-7 years so hopefully that translates into reciprocated interest when we talk to free agents

It might make me a bad guy but I was legitimately gleeful when he got scratched from the braves most important game of the season
