Lol.

““Third base is my position….on the other side of the continent”

I'd rather be on the Giants than in Boston, IMHO.  Related to professional baseball and each team.

Adames as he's doing the miked up interview, fields a ball at short and makes the put out at first.

"I'm not gonna lie  That's...um...hard."

I like the discussion, as they are asking him when the team found out about the Devers trade- 15 min before the game, but that'd be hard as hell to conduct an interview while you're really concentrating on work.

It seemed like a dumb contract when signed so I can't say I'm surprised they'd want to dump it.  Plus the Giants just put an ex-player in charge because the analytical poindexter types wouldn't give out big contracts, so there you go.

Feels kind of like the reverse Pablo Sandoval.

SIAP.

how does a starter get 15 Ks and his team loses 10-1 to a 14-57 team?

I had to look at that 3 times to make sure I saw that right 

 

that's a Tim Kirkjian special if I’ve ever seen one

wtf ...

The Red Sox did not shop Rafael Devers around the league before trading him, per @Buster_ESPN.

Trade Deadline is 6 weeks away and they took the first bullshit offer they got.  

This is the equivalent of bidding out a painting job, and the first guy doesn't really want to do it, so he qoutes you 100K for two rooms, and you go "DEAL, WHEN CAN YOU START?!"

That’s how bad they wanted to be rid of him. Took the first offer that took his bullshit off their books with him.

Can’t say that I blame them, either. 

Uh sure, who wants a guy with OBP > .400 and SLG > .500 anyways?

it says a lot about the org too. signing a 3B was dumb, then not talking/working with devers

I see y’alls point. But this just reeks of them being sick of his me-first attitude and not being willing to other positions, etc.

He’s obviously pissed in their cheerios pretty damn good so far.

Can’t say they aren’t cutting their nose to spite their face a bit, but to me it seems they were well past ready to be done with his shit. Not a performance move, so to speak, but a compatibility one. 🤷‍♂️

Devers, of course. If he put the team above himself, things may be different.

I’m not saying this was smart. Just seeing it for what it is. They couldn’t get rid of him fast enough.

I would have agreed last night. Reading more, it was about Money. Liverpool FC needs a new winger or someshit like that.

Interesting angle. Two birds with one stone maybe?

 

Yeah, and in a selling mode. Fuck this season.

What is funny is my son got me a Sox Player t-shirt for Father's day. At the last minute he did not get me Devers.
