  1. NY, LA are the two biggest markets. Boston has a nationwide rabid fanbase. What I'm saying is that there is little incentive for BAL, PIT, MIA to ever be very good.
  2. @JoeyMacHockey Christian Arroyo working out at first base today at Polar Park. Why tempt fate?
  3. The problem is that winning doesn't matter anymore. These teams can be absolute dog s*** and the value of the club will still rise. It's an investment for some. it's a plaything for others.
  4. I think you should see how they perform against TEX this weekend before you start doing an endzone dance.
  5. The DD experience was wild.
  6. If he doesn't win anything and is fired 5 years from now, nobody is going to write a book about that.
  7. Buchholz only played 1/2 a year.
  8. @masslivesports If Boston Red Sox miss 2021 postseason ‘it’s on the front office’ and ‘we have no excuses,’ GM Brian O’Halloran says
  9. Hurst was better than 2013 Lackey. Hurst was better than 2018 Price.
  10. I misremembered.
  11. They'll have to show it down the stretch. If they don't, then they weren't good enough.
  12. So a good offseason, or just less underwhelming? I don't need them to "win" the offseason, just to plug in their current holes.
  13. I like Bill Lee, but he's not a reliable narrator IMO.
  14. I vaguely remember that, but we also signed early. I think we just wanted to get the deal done. Thanks Desperate Dave!!!!!!
  15. The JD deal was good. Not sure how anyone could complain about it.
  16. And he's not a DH only profile. He's a DH preferred profile. He actually likes playing the OF.
  17. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/jarren-duran-680776?stats=statcast-r-zones-mlb He's not great on pitches up, but he has a lot of swing and miss on pitches down and out of the zone. He has a 50% whiff rate on breaking balls (curveballs/sliders).
  18. I think he needs to be given a much longer leash before he's declared a bust. He's still a top 25 prospect.
  19. Is his stance all that different from Verdugo and Bellinger?
  20. In retrospect, signing Yorke underslot and landing Blaze in the 3rd round was a great job by Bloom. If they sign another 1st round guy at slot, no way could they sign Blaze afterwards. Yorke looks like he can hit. Blaze looks like he can hit. The questions surrounding those guys are where they play. There's been an assumption that Yorke would go to LF, but if Downs doesn't pan out, Yorke probably sticks at 2b.
  21. 1250 OPS Call him up to Greenville!
  22. The real reason the Sox lost is because this thread was made after first pitch.
  23. And what if this offseason is underwhelming too? Bloom getting a pass again? Just blame ownership?
