  1. @redsoxstats Houston had 55 first pitch homers and 62 2B+3B. Sox 17 and 34. Best and worst in MLB.
  2. @redsoxstats Cora just talked about hunting first pitches to do damage with. Might have mentioned that a time or ten this year. SWOOOOON
  3. The US treats PR like a colony. I'm not surprised when Puerto Ricans feel like outsiders.
  4. And Benny screwed the pooch by f***ing around with the international FA rules which caused the Sox to lose 2 years worth of guys. It's kind of a big deal.
  5. @SPChrisHatfield Last week, D. Marrero and S. Travis left Dominican winter lg due to injury. Now, not sure why, but Blake Swihart not active this week.
  6. @PeteAbe Red Sox stayed under the MLB luxury tax in 2017, resetting the penalties. “No,” said Dombrowski when asked if they would stay under again
  7. 2012 bad draft 2013 bad draft 2014 good draft 2015 bad draft
  8. So, 2 legit major leaguers and a whole lot of blah? Ok.
  9. And all I said was that Moncada has a high k rate and sucks defensively. Not sure what the problem is.
  10. So your argument is that he's better than two s***** players? That's some high praise!
  11. No, Ben just didn't add a lick to Theo's farm which left the Sox in a bad position.
  12. So 4 more important issues, but the Devers defense issue is still not minor? This team must be really hurting right now.
  13. The SoxProspects podcast is funded by the Russian oligarchy! Sad!
  14. 32% k rate. That's mid 80's Rob Deer. Plus bad defense! Not a good combo IMO.
  15. Poor drafts plus international signing restrictions are a bigger problem than trading away lottery tickets.
  16. Sure, but I think saying "his growing curve could seriously damage our ring hopes" is a bit much. It's a fairly minor issue.
  17. The media story was overblown for sure. However, I think stuff like that really impacts the clubhouse and these guys need to get along if they are going to be around each other every day for 9 straight months.
  18. I think stupid s*** like the Eck controversy or Pedey not standing up to Machado would be more negative for a team than 3b defense.
  19. 3B defense is probably not the biggest hindrance this team will face. Starting pitching health is probably my biggest concern with overall slumping offense right behind it.
  20. The best IF coach is usually with the MLB team. No reason to put him down in Pawtucket unless he's a complete trainwreck who also can't hit. He's fine as a 3B right now.
  21. That's what happens when you spend money on players that are dog s*** like Panda and Hanley.
  22. Ben's drafts: 2012 - s*** 2013 - s*** 2014 - decent 2015 - s*** aside from Benintendi Combine that with the international free agent nonsense the Sox were involved in, that's the reason the farm hit a bit of a wall. Not everything is DD's fault.
  23. You really don't know what you are talking about. He was injured to start the year and missed 2 months. They pushed him down to Lowell for 3 starts due to injury, not due to him getting lit up.
  24. My preference is to not have to watch a team struggle 3 out of 4 years. Those summers were really rough to get through. I've already had 3 WS titles in my adult life, if they have to go a few more years before I see another, I'll be fine with it. I just don't want to suffer through many more last damn place seasons.
  25. Wrong. She's positive that there is a cliff coming. She's positive that LaRussa was a bad hiring and that he'll be a meddler. Very positive thinking, imo.
