    Too much of a rollercoaster ride, which makes sense coming of TJS. Can't trust those guys.

    I want them to spend money on the right players. Just spending money because you have it is a silly thing to do. Crochet? Good extension. Bello, Rafaela and Campbell are up for debate at this point! Giolito? Buehler? You need to be able to find the right players to give the money to. People complain about Masa and Story's contracts all the time. Sox haven't spent money wisely in recent memory.

    None of the extensions have looked good so far, including Cora's. The Giants are psyched about this trade as they are unable to lure big time FA hitters to their team and this was a way to get a bat into their lineup. I don't think they are worried about the last 3-4 years of that contract. Posey may not be GM by then. They've only had 1 playoff appearance in the last 8 years. They are hoping to reverse that trend. We'll see how Posey's old school style works in comparison to Breslow's.

    The Betts trade was franchise altering because of the trajectory the Sox are now on. Raffy is a very frustrating trade for many reasons, but ultimately just another notch on the bedpost where the fanbase has been getting reamed by ownership over the past 6 years.

    This did not happen in my lifetime.

    Walked the first batter in the 2nd and was pulled.

    27 pitches in the first inning for Houck.
  9. mvp 78
    We know he can’t at this point. At his best, he’s a 2 WAR guy.
  10. mvp 78
    3 hits, 3 runs Take these wins when you get them. Making up for bad luck loses along the way.
  11. mvp 78
    Devers, a guy being paid franchise altering money, has no right to know the plans about his future? That doesn’t make sense to me.
  12. mvp 78
    It’s been reported that there weren’t issues with Raffy in the clubhouse. It hasn’t been reported that players were upset with Raffy in the way you presented it. The worst we heard was “he was just one of 26 and we’re moving on.”

    I'd be surprised if they sent down Campbell at this point. Hamilton has been one of the worst players in MLB this year and has options.
  15. mvp 78
    Dang, how'd I miss him?
  16. mvp 78
    I only wish they were able to trade him to the Padres as that would have been kinda fun for him and Xander. The Giants? Yuck!
  17. mvp 78
    I think it will be tougher this season. I think it doesn't change the outlook for 2026 and on. The biggest concern is getting starting pitching on track. Having an ace goes a long way.
  18. mvp 78
    It seemed like there were a lot more fans than usual that bought into the Raffy is a "lollygagger" and "he stole my sweetroll" and whatever else the media was putting out there once that first press conference went off the rails. Maybe I'm just too even keeled for my own good! 😎
  19. mvp 78
    I'm sorry Kimmi, but you're just making this up. I know you're upset he left, but there was no clubhouse drama between Devers and his teammates.
  20. mvp 78
    ST lineup. Under 3 runs for sure.
  21. mvp 78
    Did you expect him to be Bugs Bunny out there playing all 9 positions? Sox since 2019:
  22. mvp 78
    His teammates aren't hurt at all. None of his teammates have complained. The fans turned their backs on him while he was here! They complained about his paycheck, his weight, that he used an interpreter! Why should he care about their feelings?
  23. mvp 78
    Gotta save money somehow when you've spent $40M on Masa/Story and have 0.2 fWAR to show for it so far.
  24. mvp 78
    I want to have faith that they will spend it wisely, but we just haven't really had that history with this org. It's fair to ignore the bad Bloom signings. Under Breslow: Bregman - GREAT' Sandoval - TBD Buehler - 25M should have been better spent TBH Chapman - GREAT Wilson - Good Bello extension - Fine? Rafaela extension - No bueno IMO Giolito - 50M should have been better spent TBH So maybe they'll spend the money wisely? Hard to really say for sure.
  25. mvp 78
    It's the same thing for us as JH wasn't going to ever match the Dodgers as the Sox stick to their "valuation" on players and won't go over it. That's why they've struggled to bring in top FA since DD left.
