  1. You don't believe in his career high BABIP and SLG? He can't do that again in 2021?
  2. We were spoiled by Decisive Dave!
  3. He was a pleasant surprise this year. Fun to watch. Plus, we can trade him at the deadline again!
  4. There were others who had ill will towards Cora because of his handling of the starting pitching staff at the beginning of 2019. You are not alone.
  5. I like JBJ too, but think Pillar could sign for less money on a shorter deal. I originally thought JBJ could sign for 2/12-14M. Other places think he'll get a 3rd year and maybe even more money. In this market, I think JBJ won't get much more than my original prediction.
  6. Who should be the opening day CFer for the Sox?
  7. @alexspeier Alex Cora met in person with Red Sox chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom and GM Brian O’Halloran last Friday - but the Red Sox search process continues.
  8. Or since all of the other vacancies have been filled, that there is no reason to rush into signing him. Maybe they are working out who he wants as a bench coach and maybe other positions?
  9. If only the Sox only had to have 25 guys in the org!
  10. Yup, working for an MLB org will burn you out and make you hate baseball.
  11. @SPChrisHatfield Confirmed that the Red Sox re-signed the following players who would have hit free agency: C Roldani Baldwin, RHP Seth Blair, RHP Raynel Espinal, LHP Stephen Gonsalves, 1B/OF Joey Meneses, OF Johan Mieses, 1B Josh Ockimey ( @ChrisCotillo 1st), C Jhonny Pereda, RHP Caleb Simpson.
  12. I just think that if it did happen, that a team would say "yeah, we offered more and he went elsewhere." I'd be surprised if it happens even once per offseason.
  13. What players have opted to not take the highest dollar? Varitek? Anyone else?
  14. Living the American Dream!
  15. I just hope JD doesn't look like Chris Davis again in 2021.
  16. When my BS in Math, MBA, MA (Accounting) and CPA falls short... I no good at numbers...
  17. You think it's less than 99%?
  18. Moncada was better than Devers in 2020. Espinoza hasn't pitched in 4 years. Nobody on here should be talking about him anymore. How has Kopech been a problem child?
  19. Bean came out as gay to his parents during his time playing for the Padres. He came out publicly to Lydia Martin of the Miami Herald in 1999. He became the second Major League Baseball player to publicly come out as gay. Glenn Burke was the first to come out to his teammates and employers during his playing days, though Burke did not come out to the public at large until his career was over.[2] I didn't know about Burke.
  20. I thought he wasn't open until his playing days ended?
  21. 1. You can not like DD's trades and not like Bloom's trades. 2. You can like DD's trades and not like Bloom's trades. 3. You can like DD's trades and like Bloom's trades. There isn't a contradiction. I'm in group 3. I think DD's trades were overpays, but the resulted in a WS. If they didn't win a WS, maybe his trades get downgraded. Bloom had a last place team and was able to dump some expiring contracts and receive prospects in return. Whether or not Bloom's deals worked out, he had a last place team and needed to try and restock the farm. I'm looking for a contradiction, but can't find one. The 2016-18 Sox team is starkly different from the 2020 version. The situations aren't alike. Hard to compare.
  22. Moncada, Dubon and Kopech are all good. Logan Allen may be fine. I don't think anyone is saying none of those guys are good? Maybe I don't know which poster you are referring to, unless it's StrawmanBoSox.
  23. He grew up being a Yankees fan. Pass.
