  1. We had him for his most of his prime and there was very little prime left when he left. He was different case from the others, because he didn’t start with the Red Sox.
  2. Yeah, I would put Lynn in the same category and Fisk too. That team was full of extraordinary talent. And they let 2 of them go and it didn’t end well. Lynn’s stats with the Red Sox were very close to Betts. I wouldn’t put Pedro in the same category. He was a once in a generation talent, but unlike the others, he was pst his prime when he left.
  3. There will be no struggle with.500. They will not smell it after April.
  4. Mookie falls into the category of a once in a generation talent. The Red Sox had 3or 4 others — Ruth, Williams, Yaz, Rice. When you let a guy like that go instead of building around him, it is momentous mistake.
  5. With this current roster? I am not seeing competitiveness unless they add more wild card spots.
  6. If they were, that was a huge swing and a miss.
  7. shaping up to be. That’s what I said. Let’s see if Koepech makes the team and contributes or hits another bump.
  8. Excuses, excuses.
  9. Not writing him off yet, but he has hit some major bumps on his road.
  10. The Sale trade is shaping up as Sale straight up for Moncada, unless injury prone cheater Koepech can make something of himself.
  11. While Brett was never a star, he had a 14 year MLB career and was an excellent hitting pitcher. Garman was in the bigs for 9 years. Ball is the standard for failure for Red Sox picks higher than #10.
  12. Limit access to electronics and give the kid a pensy pinky or spaldeen and teach them some games that can be played in a driveway or alley. Pitch to your kids. Kids love to hit the ball long before they understand the game.
  13. Felix Hernandez signed by Orioles to a minor league deal. He’ll get $1 million if he makes it to the bigs.
  14. I am not seeing the value for Ottavino.
  15. Kolten Wong signs with Brewers - 2 years / $18 million
  16. I think when they were called the “Robins” they were named after the manager.
  17. With 15 days left until Pitchers and Catchers report to camp, the average of daily signings will be 10. Things will start getting very active.
  18. My Spring Training streak will be broken after 17 Seasons. And I will miss taking in games with my TalkSox buddy(ies).
  19. He was worth the price of admission. He was a lot of fun to watch.
  20. 2019 was a career year for Workman. I wouldn’t pay much for him.
  21. One year $8 million for Rosario is a reasonable value.
  22. Here is some information about the prospects received by the Mets in return for Matz. Warm bodies with heartbeats. https://nypost.com/2021/01/28/meet-the-three-pitching-prospects-mets-got-back-for-steven-matz/
  23. Why are you so intent on Schoop when we have plenty of options to mix and match with Kike? How much do you want to invest in 2B for 2 part time players? I think there are other needs that have to be addressed.
  24. It was a straight out salary dump so Alderson can put the full court press on to get Bauer. I know a lot of people get moist over prospects, but I wouldn’t be waiting to buy the rookie cards of any of these prospects.
  25. Do you think our lineup is as good as the Jays’ lineup?
