  1. To be worse than Ben, there would have to be 4 straight last place finishes.
  2. Yep, but we should be able to enjoy competitive baseball into September.
  3. I don't think there would have been any restriction on Benny Boy from getting a top 5 starting pitcher (age 27) on a well-below market 3 year contract. That would have been a stupid restriction. DD gets these deals done. Cherries never made a bold acquisition in a trade. That would not be Benny Boy, who prefers to hoard prospects.
  4. Who platoons against LHP?
  5. Great to have you back. We finally have a great bunch of starters.
  6. i disagree as to certainty.
  7. No hating on anyone that brought us that 2004 title.
  8. I may have to start referring to him as the formerly fat pig.
  9. I am glad that I wasn't eating anything when I read this.
  10. In my 50 years of following them, they have developed 2 -- Clemens and Lester.
  11. DD gets it done. He doesn't pussy foot around. He gets top shelf guys for us to watch, and people complain. I guess they prefer running out to the mound the Mileys, Kellys, Mastersons, Dubronts, Dempsters, and Aaron Cooks to Price and Sale. This is the best 1-2 punch since Pedro and Schilling in 2004, and with Porcello, it is the best 1-2-3 punch in my long memory. And people are unhappy about 2020?
  12. There will be other prospects coming. And your statement is just your opinion. It doesn't merit a "certainly."
  13. His call up was just a cup of coffee that ended quickly when it became apparent that he could be trusted to even run the bases.
  14. Projected best AL records and wearing black. Confusing.
  15. But then you wouldn't get him. This is a top 5 pitcher at age 27 who makes around what Buchholz makes and we have him for 3 seasons. He wasn't going to be had for some lottery tickets. It was going to take a bue chip can't miss player in return.
  16. He also would not have needed to sign Price, because we would still have Lester, but for Bumbling Ben.
  17. Moreland will be a good fit, but I guess that EE has been ruled out.
  18. DD is not the type to show his hand to the Press. If Koji stays unsigned and the price is right, I would not be surprised if DD signed Koji again.
  19. We will just hav to watch some really good players play winning baseball, but the future is shot to hell. LOL!
  20. They revel being in last place but swimming in prospects.
  21. I still think that he goes for Encarnacion, who badly wants to come to Boston.
  22. DD is a wheeler dealer. He doesn't go for some half baked player. He goes for and gets the top stud. Benny Boy never pulls the trigger on a trade like this... never.
  23. Now, would you trade Buch?
  24. Our rotation rocks!!
