  1. No GT and it's only April. Woof...
  2. Thank you. Better players tend to be more clutch. Except for David Price.
  3. Who? The only ones to state anything like that are people that think it doesn't exist.
  4. I'm glad you finally agree that clutch exists. You took a big step today. Congrats!
  5. If Wright gives up 8 runs a game, he won't be in the rotation very long. Talk to me on Nemorial Day.
  6. Swihart could hit 400/30/100 in AAA and I wouldn't promote him. He's there to work on his defense so that some day he can be our franchise C.
  7. Scumbags and s***** movies. #neverwahlberg
  8. If stats can't explain something the it's due to luck or randomness. OR MAYBE STATS CAN'T EXPLAIN AWAY EVERYTHING?!?!?
  9. Nobody on here has ever saidthat clutch = extra ability. Whatpeople have said is that clutch is the lack of choking.
  10. SSS. There just aren't enough baseball gods to prove their existence.
  11. Archer was scared of Papi. Betts doesn't have that mystique.
  12. Wahlbergs on tv, change the channel.
  13. At least they'd be worth the $$$ rather than guys like Hanley and Pablo. How about they just sign 3 of 4 and trade the other? Neither Price nor Pedroia will be on the team in 2022, imo.
  14. When JBJ, Betts, Xander and Beni come up for new contracts, WHY DON'T WE JUST RE-SIGN THEM?!?!?
  15. I'd go with Workman first.
  16. Pedroia 2B, Benintendi CF, Betts RF, Ramirez DH, Moreland 1B, Bogaerts SS, Sandoval 3B, Young LF, Leon C
  17. So then maybe Sale is part of our next great team?
  18. Beat the Rays. Hail Satan. \m/
  19. The author of that article isn't even out of High School yet. It seems his knowledge of the history of Sox transactions is kind of suspect. He was still learning his ABC's when Aaron Boone took Wakefield deep. Anyone who can't comprehend the mindset of growing up with a perennial also-ran, shouldn't be fretting about the state of the franchise right now. The sky isn't falling. Theo traded prospects. Ben made some terrible signings. I don't think this person really understands market value. David Price is worth that contract. That's what you spend on the open market. Should they have used it on a different pitcher? Yes, most of us think they should have just signed Lester to begin with. However, saying none of DD's moves were smart just comes off as a pretty dumb statement. "Why not try to be crafty" is basically playing fantasy baseball. Unless you're in on the phone calls, how would you know if a better deal could have been had? Blah, whatever.
  20. That line is a real groaner to me. Theo: AGon and CC Ben: Hanley and Pablo I think the "all-in" comes from ownership, not from the GM. Unless there was some unknowable sabermetric reason to spend all that money on CC, Pablo and Hanley? I don't think the recent moves are that much different from how they've operated in the past.
  21. I kind of wonder if this Sox ownership group isn't worried about a long term outlook. Maybe they are planning on selling in a few years?
  22. Hell just froze over!
  23. sss!!!!!!!!!
  24. Fun is allowed on here?
  25. The Sox don't have a great history of developing top pitching talent. The 2004 rotation included no homegrown players (unless you count Schilling). The 2007 rotation included Lester (pitched in 12 games all season) and Paplebon as closer. The 2013 rotation included Lester and Clay. Our next great team is going to come from a mix of homegrown players, trades and smart FA signings as they all have.
