    He took the higher AAV and opt outs with Boston. It's not really apples to apples with Detroit's offer.

    The malcontent was saying "communicate with me and treat me fairly." Other players are going to notice. Players started to not like Bloom here. More players will tune out Breslow and that is going to impact Cora more and more. The whole organization is on a bad path with their bad culture. It rots from the top down (JH).
  3. mvp 78
    They won for JH's wallet. That's it. Everything else was a loss.

    There aren't reports that say he asked for a trade, just that "he considered asking for a trade in ST." It's not the same thing. If there's something else out there, post it!

    If the Red Sox aren't equipped to deal with the minimal amount of complaints that came from Raffy, this organization is screwed. Wait until they get a really disgruntled player. Raffy had like 2 press conferences and then shut his mouth. You can't get a CBO to interview here. Why would anyone ever want to play here? Joke organization.
  7. mvp 78
    No. They've been working on this trade for a few weeks apparently.

    They won't be able to replace his production this year. They'll be able to move some deck chairs around and get under the CBT. Maybe this works towards them having better pitching in the future? Maybe? Everything we've heard about since 2020 is them working towards the future. This is the 6th year of the rebuild. When do they just go for it with the team they have?
  9. mvp 78
    Maybe through in a few complex league guys too?
  10. mvp 78
    He doesn't have any secondary pitches. That #2 ceiling has sailed.
  11. mvp 78
    Two players that went to making the team better. The Red Sox will be worse off for this deal. Hicks is a relief profile going forward. The other 3 may not have MLB impact in the future.

    Rubby was Baby Pedro! https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1488338-2013-boston-red-sox-could-rubby-de-la-rosa-be-the-next-pedro-martinez There were so many stories that offseason about him getting his changeup from Pedro.

    Do you think trades get done in 5 minutes the way they do in the movies?
  14. mvp 78
    He said there was no hustle issue.
  15. mvp 78
    8pm?!?
  16. mvp 78
    If they got the Nomar return...
  17. mvp 78
    I believe they announced the signing as 1B/DH. 🫠
  18. mvp 78
    JH, Bailey, Cora and Raffy all played their parts in this mess. I think on here Raffy got more blame than I've seen elsewhere. I think it's because some of our posters age a bit on the mature side.
  19. mvp 78
    It depends on what the expectations are, right? If he was on a minimal contract for 8 years, the Sox are getting a crazy return. I just think the Sox could have received more if they waited. How much? I don't know because I don't work in baseball operations. We all know that prices get higher at the deadline. They just wanted him gone sooner than later and had a trade that was good enough. The trade was most likely never going to be enough to make me happy for sure.
  20. mvp 78
    It's good sportsmanship.
  21. mvp 78
    Numb may be how Gio's arm feels after the cross country flight. Look forward to see what this lineup card looks like.

  23. mvp 78
    You'll see. Don't waste your time.
  24. mvp 78
    They aren't going to spend that this year. They spent that on one of the best hitters in MLB. With their history, that money is not going to be wisely spent. You know this. The cost to replace his production? 30M or more!
  25. mvp 78
    It's frustrating because I think you need to be able to do both: understand the analytics and see that the players are actual human beings that don't function as 0's and 1's in a program or on a spreadsheet. Cold weather impacts performance. Bad managers impact performance. Not being happy where you live impacts your performance.
