    Every year? No. More often than not? Yes.

    I liked him as a reliever. His starter numbers weren't great. I didn't think it'd work out. I'm not sure if it will work out for him long term as he has a bad barrel rate and exit velo.

    People liked Strahm. Sox didn't re-sign him because they didn't want to make a place for him in the rotation. Is he Rich Hill 2.0? Only time will tell.

    "They HAVE TO reset because they went over last season" by stepping on an upside rake like a cartoon character and hitting themselves and buffoonishly costing themselves draft capital in a throwaway season... I'm supposed to give them credit for going over last year now? No f***ing way...

    They went over by accident!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Who said "small market?"
  8. mvp 78
    No, I 1,000,000%$ believe they will NOT be in the top 5% in payroll next season. I have no faith in John Henry. I am biased against him. I have been that way for a long time, but have heard lots of negative things about him running this franchise going back to last season. This is a Tom Werner stan account. Werner wants to spend money, Henry doesn't. That is what I've heard. There's an ongoing push and pull in ownership between spending and not spending. Right now, we are in a not spending phase, which seems very clear to me. The FA moves the current Sox have made can be typified as RINKY DINK.

    A reset year? How many of those do they need? Are they collecting under the CBT years like pokémon?
  10. mvp 78
    Check my math please. 2020 - reset! 2021 - under 2022 - over on accident 2023 - reset! There's no way that the payroll of the last 4 year suggests the Sox are in the upper tier. It seems they are middle of the pack with the Twins, Rockies, Cardinals and Mariners of the world right now. These teams will get one big name contract, appease the fans and then go on about their business for better or worse. The question will be, how does Henry act when Sale's money is freed up after 2024, WHICH IS TWO MORE YEARS AWAY. ARE WE REALLY AT THE POINT OF THIS BEING A BRIDGE YEAR AND NEXT YEAR BEING ONE TOO?!??!

    It is early, because all the games from May - September still count and have yet to be played.

    @SoxProspects Dalton Rogers pitching line- 5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 K, 54/90 strikes (60%). The 22-year-old lefty has a 2.79 ERA over 9.2 IP with 19 strikeouts to 5 walks.

    https://twitter.com/Hunter_Noll/status/1650906413315637270 Bleis with first tater at Salem.
  14. mvp 78
    No, they aren't. They are 14th. That's middle of the road. Average! By definition that's not a big spender.
  15. mvp 78
    Eovaldi has 1 fWAR already thanks to a 2.20 FIP. Just adding Nate would take the Sox pitching from 25th to 17th.
  16. mvp 78
    Considering where the rotation's fWAR is right now, probably. They weren't going to fix it by signing one guy at 10M.
  17. mvp 78
    For sure, they were DUMB for not resetting last year. All they had to do was trade JD for a low A prospect at the deadline and the would have reset. Big time fail on FO for that.
  18. mvp 78
    It is just as misleading as moon's "they've spent $650M since March 2022."
  19. mvp 78
    They are mid tier. 14th even! Spending more than the bottom s*** tier of MLB is nothing to be proud of considering how some of those teams are run.
  20. mvp 78
    And the Operating Profit excludes the real estate $$$ from the surrounding area as well as ownership of NESN $$$.
  21. mvp 78
    Prospects are never a guarantee. You can move a signed SS to 2B or elsewhere. You can move Mayer to a different position or trade him in a package for a starting pitcher if he really develops.
  22. mvp 78
    How many players did he get rid of again? Xander 11 @ 280M Mookie 12 @ 365M Nate 2 @ 34M JD 1 @ 10 M Vaz 3 @ 30M Renfroe 1 @ 12M Seems like he's committed to SLASHING money and not spending it?
  23. mvp 78
    HAhahahahahahahahahahahahah
  24. mvp 78
    In the visitor's dugout?
  25. mvp 78
    Funny, because our concerns this offseason were starting pitching and SS. Thanks, Chaim.
