That's the whole "bashing without solutions" part. The only solution that has been provided was "fire Bloom" but I don't think that necessarily even gets to the root of the problem the Sox have. The reason the Sox are in a roller coaster cycle is due John Henry.

@pgammo As Ever,fact, but but while one doubts Bogaerts would switch positions, in the past three days front office folks from 3 teams claim they’ve been told he has severed Boston ties and won’t be going back. Whether that’s negotiating leverage talk or reality, there’s no confirmation.
-
The signing makes sense for the Astros, not the Sox in 2023. Maybe the 2025 Sox can sign a DH like that?
-
Contreras isn't a great defensive catcher. Adequate? Sure.
-
Why? Shouldn't re-signing Bogey help to re-sign Raffy?
-
Abreu Career OBP: 354 2022 OBP: 378 I think there will be a little regression. Add in the decrease in power and it may not be a great picture.
-
Bashing is fine and good. Bashing without providing ANY solutions... Not great or productive for conversation!
-
The sample size being Mazz and Merloni. LOL
-
"You guys are so off base because Mazz and Merloni said..." is half of his arguments. Keep sucking on the bottle of big corporate media.
-
Yes, because we don't blindly follow the lamestream media narrative like you. Duh. We all think for ourselves on here and disagree with each other all the time, but somehow your perception is that we're the outside the norm and weird and love Bloom even though we complain about the Sox all the time.

Tatis Jr: -9 Career DRS and currently being moved off SS
-
How it's done is to expect Abreu to keep that 350 BABIP going...
-
Is that Contreras?
-
So they sign Contreras instead of Bogey to wait on the younger SS to make it. If the younger guys don't pan out? If Raffy leaves next offseason? I'm not into it.
-
If the goal is to stay under the cap, I think there are higher priorities than filling C. They don't have anyone close enough in the org that is ready to take over as a cheap option long term at C, but I just think SS, Corner OF and SP are much higher priorities. Would the signing prevent them from filling the other needs or extending Raffy? IDK. Aside from 2021, his DRS numbers aren't impressive and his framing isn't very good.

Andrus had 3.5 fWAR last year. It was his highest wRC+ since 2017 though.
-
2019: 203M 2022: 195M Just a trim please.
-
They were already kicking the tires on Heaney and he's going to be over 10...

1. Because it should be easy to replace a starting pitcher who had a 5.50 ERA even if it's with a guy with a different name on the back of the jersey. The contract coming off the books should be a benefit, no? 2. You mentioned "what Bloom was handed" and I'm sure COVID is outside that scope.
-
I think a lot of fans are easily riled up by whatever poisoned tripe the mainstream sports media wants to feed them today. Hard pass.
-
It's hard to complain about "budget constraints" for a team that can go over the luxury tax threshold all willy nilly.
-
It's not a good season by any stretch, but it's not the end of the world some people have made it out to be.
-
78 wins isn't the end of the world, Spanky.
-
And that's the real issue at play. For better or worse, he'll be the one to take the blame even if he really doesn't make all the calls.

BTV Minor Overpay Alert: Paxton Berti Bleday Cabrera Soler Stallings Well, I think Bloom should do it even if it is an overpay.
