Marcel Ozuna is the only thing that can save me as a fan

[TylerD]

Bye-bye.

 

I hear the O's are in need of new fans.

 

Ozuna ain't coming here, even if we deal Beni.

Heard Padres could use some fans too.

The Sale extension also had more potential to affect winning that the signing of Eovaldi.

 

I liked the Sale extension for this reason.

 

I did not like the Eovaldi extension.

I liked the Sale extension for this reason.

 

I did not like the Eovaldi extension.

 

I was the opposite. My thinking at the time: no rush to extend fragile Sale, but definitely sign our postseason hero before he wins the Cy Young!

 

And I gotta say -- again -- neither signing made it necessary to trade Mookie... Mookie made it necessary to trade Mookie. The Red Sox entire front office and owners are almost as smart as us, and even they could recognize Betts as the best Boston player in half a century.

 

I'm not Dombro's advocate, but just look at his history if you think he preferred Sale and Eovaldi over paying Mookie market value. Dave loves his Hall of Famers, and locked up Miggie Cabrera -- overpay, some would say -- and offered (and was spurned) $144 million to Scherzer... which at the time was probably a more commensurate bid for his value than the lowball $300M offer to Mookie years later.

Blow the Budget up and trade Benny to Marlins .I demand it happen for Redsox Nation .Time to Mash if we can’t pitch .

 

If we wanted to blow the budget up, we would have re-signed Mookie.

[Kimmi]

Sox should NEVER be concerned about service time. They have enough $$$ to retain anyone if they want to (including Mookie).

 

Pretty much any team has enough to retain anyone they want to. It doesn't work like that though.

[Kimmi]

Seems to be.

 

They should have wanted to though.

 

No.

[Kimmi]

I thought Eovaldi extension was justified. Contracts for both Sale and Porcello were coming due.

 

Our 2019 SP rotation looked solid on paper. Sale, Porcello, E Rod, Eovaldi and Price.

 

It's all behind us now. Look to the future. I really like this Bloom guy.

 

I fully endorse this post.

Yes, it does.

Why doesn’t everyone just put this clown (the OP) on ignore? At least we would be spared reading his pathetic cries for attention and the constant I’m not posting until ... or I’m going to stop being a fan.

 

I know ignore isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but some people just seem to deserve it.

 

My apologies to clowns everywhere.

[mvp 78]

Well, last offseason's plans would have been WORSE if they signed Ozuna.

[Larry Cook]

I really don’t see hang’em Chaim making a huge splash this offseason either.

 

The dude shops for Kia’s and not Bugatti’s!

[mvp 78]

Another negative fWAR guy.

 

OP should be thanking his lucky stars that Bloom is the GM and not himself.

And a negative person guy too

In fWAR, the "f" stands for family.

This thread sounds a lot like the recent "know-it-all" thread claiming Correa is the the young ARod that can save the Sox, but dumb Bloom doesn't know how to convince Henry to let him spend more.

If Correa has a negative fWAR in 2022 it would be the greatest thing.

The real question is why would the Sox want to save a fan like SG?

[moonslav59]

He can't even save himself.

[mvp 78]

He can't even save himself.

 

That's just because all his savings goes towards his therapists.

They must not be very good, or he has no savings.

“Therapist” is two words…

They're a pissed.
