    Whoever buys the Sox would have to be loaded to afford the purchase. What newer franchise was purchased and then cheapened out on?

    They have room to grow as they should be up to 36k a night rather than 32k post COVID. However, the product on the field looks like they are playing with COVID.

    Wily Mo never tripped over a bag.

    Northeastern used to be a commuter school. The Red Sox are a commuter franchise.

    Yes, doesn't make it out of April, or struggles with injuries all year, while YRod pitches as a 5th starter and eeks out 1.5 fWAR or whatever.

    Since you were 15?!?!? Holy s***! I had no idea about years of control until I was in my 20's. They'll have to spend big no matter what! They have zero good arms coming from the farm that can slot into front end of the rotation. Right now, nobody projects higher than a 4. Per SP: Perales - potential back end starter Wikelman - highquality multi inning relief arm Fitts - multi inning depth reliever Monegro - up and down multi inning reliever ERC - emergency depth starter Dobbins - depth starter or multi inning reliever Walter - depth starter Rogers - reliever Gambrell - up and down swingman Penrod - high minors org depth arm Liu - minor league depth arm BLEAK

    No, it's a weird freakin' offseason! (Originally penned by moon after the Sale trade from CHW.) Rosenthal wrote an article that can be summed up: the risk that owners run into when they extend young talent is that they can turn into Wander Franco!

    Exhibit A for there being too many baseball podcasts.

    It's not a poverty payroll overall. It's a midmarket payroll like the Colorado Rockies. They are in purgatory. The problem is that the fans aren't paying midmarket prices.

    She doesn't want to do coffin play anymore?
  11. mvp 78
    Paxton is probably better than YRod, but has a lower ceiling due to injury risk.
  12. mvp 78
    Why be worried about losing one year? Sometimes a tank year has unexpected results. If that's the pitcher you want, go get them. I'd say the same thing about a pitcher with two years control. Acquire the pitchers you believe in. Look at the successful franchises around the league and follow what they do (Dodgers, Braves, etc.).

    Not sure his wife can either. She had to go out and become the damn CEO of the globe for spending money.
  14. mvp 78
    But why?
  15. mvp 78
    Telling lies again, moon? 2023 - 32,989 AVG 2022 - 32,408 AVG

    It's all the crime and homelessness in Boston!
  17. mvp 78
    They've already pivoted away from Snell and Montgomery. There have been NO rumors about Stroman, Clevinger or Lorenzen. The only guys we've heard about is Soler and YRod. That still seems like a bridge year to me.
  18. mvp 78
    All the rumors have just been BS this offseason so we may never really know.
  19. mvp 78
    "Realistically sign." Sox would need to dump a few contracts to do that!
  20. mvp 78
    In his first press conference, Crag specifically shouted out Toboni as someone in the FO that he liked. Maybe he's just elevating the voices that he wants to hear?
  21. mvp 78
    25-26 will surely be another moving target. Can't wait to root for 2027 at some point. Giolito is about kicking the can down the road at some point and has zip to do with ratings.
  22. mvp 78
    And that list is just judging their own players. They have often misjudged FA classes and have failed to bring in their targets. Unless saying things like "Jose Abreu is our prime target" is just a smoke screen.
  23. mvp 78
    I think I'd rather have a beer with wacko jacko. Maybe.
  24. mvp 78
    Cubbies over the Giants?
  25. mvp 78
    "Once again." That has happened every offseason going back to at least Mookie Betts if not to Lester and beyond. It's just not acceptable for these SMART people.
