It took Theo 5 years to build a quality farm system. It took Rick Hahn two days.

And he had to exploit a loophole in the new CBA, by trading for international money.

Still can't do this, and you shouldn't either. They made it pretty clear they don't want anyone at any of the games or watching on tv until 2019. I hope the franchise goes bankrupt. Fuck this team and fuck Jerry Reinsdorf most of all for letting these two clowns in the front office do this rebuild. I hope he dies watching a 30 win team next year.

2018 opening day rotation
Carlos Rodon
Reynaldo Lopez (will debut in 2017)
Lucas Giolito (will debut in 2017)
Michael Kopech

They've got Hansen, Fulmer and Dunning all lying around for that 5th spot or covering in the case of injury (Sox pitchers stay remarkably healthy, so this is unlikely) or ineffectiveness. Moncada and Anderson will play in 2017. They are going to turn this around faster than you expect. 2017 is going to be brutal sure but this deal proves that we are not in store for a half decade of intentional losing.

As long as KW and Hahn are in charge we are in store for another half decade of losing, intentional or not.

Now when they go all in on that Japanese guy who is coming over for a couple of years they will be set. I hear they are hot on his trail.

I will bet you $1000 of Scorehead's money that the Sox win at least 51 games next season.

If Sock fans are consistent, FF is the only true fan on the board. Maybe peeps too.

No. They might get on a hot streak in the middle of the season and get up to 60 wins. Baseball is a funny game.

The Sox won 78 games last year, and 76 in 2015.

I don't think they will be worse than a 70 win team next season.

I'll make a bet on 70 games, but let's not act like we are balling enough for $1000 wagers on dumb shit like this. $50 sound good?

POssibly, but lets see what the final roster looks like.

My overall point is that I don't think the Sox will lose 100+ games. They aren't making the playoffs in 2017, but they aren't going to be a 61 or 64 win team either.
