    ***2024 NFL Draft***

    Meh. This is a pretty weak draft class. If they can get one of the three WRs, they should run their pick to the stand. If the WRs are gone, maybe trade back in exchange for a 1st or 2nd rounder next year.

    Boston Sweet Sixteen 2024 Roll Call

    Just take the T from North Station (right outside the arena) to South Station and walk a few blocks. It'll only cost you a couple of bucks, and you won't have to wait around for Lyft/Uber.

    My hope is that this turns out like the Carlos Correa/Twins deal a couple of years ago, where Belli isn’t getting the offers he wants, so he agrees to a shorter, high avg. contract with opt outs. He’s still a young guy, and if he proves his comeback is real for another season, he’s in line for...

    It would take a ton to get Tatis. He just put up 4.4 WAR in a down offensive year and will probably win the Gold Glove in RF (in his first year there). He's also only 24. His deal is big, but he still has a ton of surplus value (e.g., you'd likely be giving up multiple PCA, Horton, Alcantara...

    I would love to get Tatis, but the Padres aren't going to be sending any money with him, and he'd be pretty expensive to acquire. He's 24. He established himself as probably the best defensive RF in baseball this year, and he's going to put up almost 5 WAR in a "down" (for him) offensive year...

    PCA will get his chance, and he's close enough that I think they will leave room for him. Morel has had many chances and can be a good player/starter (although maybe at DH), but is not a star. Mervis hasn't come anywhere close to showing he can succeed in MLB, so I don't think you can count on...

    They can't go into next year with the same offense, likely needing an upgrade at 3B, 1B or DH (even if Bellinger is resigned). Madrigal has played well defensively at 3B, but his offense isn't getting it done, at least to be a starter. Wisdom shouldn't be a part of the equation after his...

    It's 7-0, facing the bottom of the lineup, and the Cubs used a bunch of pitchers last night. Unless Wicks is gassed, it sure would be nice to get one more inning out of him.

    If they were to get Ohtani, I think you have Morel try 1B and let him and Mervis compete for the spot.

    I'd like to see them exercise the club option on Gomes to ease the pressure on Amaya. Amaya is looking good, but he's seen very little time above A ball. They should salvage what they can on Barnhart....maybe a team desperate for catching would be willing to pay $1M of his salary next year?

    Eli King??

    Grill with 4 years of experience is a better ball handler. Grill as a freshman was pretty terrible as a ball handler. The comparison I was making was to Grill as a freshman.

    Eli King??

    I think the Grill comparison is a good one. Grill played way more minutes as a freshman, but that was only because the team was absolute garbage, and we were down to 6-7 guys at times. Eli is an exceptional athlete, but doesn't have a great jumpshot, just like Grill at that stage in his...

    MLB: ***Official 2022 Chicago Cubs Season Thread***

    It wasn't just Baty. They also had Escobar, a proven, $10M per year player, at 3B. I know they aren't acting rationally, but surely Baty has more value to them as a trade chip than as a rarely used backup. (Correa and Alonso are both going to start every game they are physically able to...

    Odd Will McDonald scouting report for 2023 NFL Draft

    From Campbell's presser today: "Nobody works harder at his craft. I was teasing our coaches Monday night, and man who is the guy that is still in the facility working on his craft? It’s Will." I'll bet Will just forgot to pay his rent, and that's why he's at the practice facility late...smh
