    @BeyondtheMnstr Red Sox All-Star third baseman Rafael Devers will not entertain extension talks once the season begins, according to The Boston Globe’s @alexspeier.

    Have you heard of the Prodigal Son? It's a parable that my dad relayed to me over and over again during my high school and college years with limited affect.

    Sometimes they can.

    Who hated the JBJ trade from day one? If that's the worst you'll say about a trade, I can see why people get frustrated at how you talk about the FO.

    Per BTV: Sale SP to the ChiSox Moncada 2B to the Red Sox

    How would he have gotten rid of him without eating the vast majority of his salary?
  7. mvp 78
    It will still be less money than what it would be in November.

    What is their longer term plan in your opinion?

    If this is true, why do my posts seem to whoosh over your head like you just arrived from Rigel V?

    The trap:

    He still has one minor league option remaining, so maybe he can work out some stuff in WOO.

    The Red Sox DFA'd Schreiber too. Any team could have claimed him. Nobody did. You have to take a chance on a grab bag of relievers sometimes. Now, this doesn't excuse what happened with Thaddeus Ward...
  13. mvp 78
    No!

    Even at .500, they'll be within shouting distance like they were this season... You'll see.

    The most antagonistic this site ever has been was 2012. If we get some more active users, I think we could get back there.

    @alexspeier The Red Sox continue to express their desire to extend Devers. But what if they can't? Has anything changed since Chaim Bloom said the Sox weren't contemplating dealing Devers? Bloom said no. 'He is at the center of everything we’re trying to do' All they are going to get is a comp pick.

    Wrong.

    The Red Sox will spend more on Kiké, Jansen, Yoshida, Joely, Martin in 2023 than the A's and Pirates spent on their active rosters COMBINED in 2022. Bad post. Two thumbs down.
  19. mvp 78
    I think Jansen is neat.

    "Absolutely" at the end is f***ing hilarious to me.

    If they played a full 162, Springs and Mazza would have been 1-2 in the CY voting. They just needed a normal ST.
  22. mvp 78
    No, they'll still spend up to the luxury tax, but on mid level guys that nobody will lining up to buy jerseys of.
  23. mvp 78
    Yes.
  24. mvp 78
    The goal is to have a strong farm so you'd figure it out eventually. At some point, a 10 year deal involves faith that your system will cover shortfalls at other positions via the farm. I guess Bloom and Co doesn't believe that they will be able to develop the talent needed to field a successful team in that manner.

    "We remain optimistic that we are going to field a very competitive team with a chance to play baseball in October and win a World Series in 2023, absolutely,” team president Sam Kennedy told me Saturday. I don't think that means that all the players are currently in house per se. 1. They are only optimistic. 2. The use of "going to field" to me seems like he is leaving open the idea that there are more additions. It's used car salesman talk that we've heard since 2020.
