Sounds like Red Sox plan to have some news for us tonight. Could be resolution of MLB investigation or could be a new manager. I'd bet on the latter, but we will see.

I guess you can take off the BETTS and change it to BOLTON
No, I was joking.
If Bloom didn't do that deal (which you and I would have done since it seems to be market value), it must be because we are idiots and don't have all the information that Bloom does.
Good thing this team will get substantial power from their 3b and SS.
Dalbec, Peraza and Chavis are both RH bats that will get plenty of run. Dalbec and Chavis provide a lot of power.
2012 was coming off a very strong 2011 season. 2014 was right after a 2013 WS win. 2015 was the year of splurging on stupid contracts. This is a horse of a different color.
