  1. I can't even be angry about it anymore and I skipped right by the bargaining stage...
  2. 25M on a 34 year old pitcher? Red Sox can't afford that!!! They are a poor smol bean franchise!
  3. Depressing. It is a crisis that strikes at the very heart and soul of our national will. We can see this crisis in the growing doubt of the meaning of our own lives and in the loss of unity and purpose as Red Sox Nation. The erosion of confidence in the future is threatening to destroy the social fabric of TalkSox.
  4. The majority of FA's that had 2 fWAR last season have signed elsewhere. From the guys that are left, who would the Sox realistically sign that could make this year not a bridge year? Montgomery Bellinger Snell Chapman Stroman Kershaw Belt Clevinger JD Theories about "just trade for a guy" will not be allowed due to BTV hate speech.
  5. Rumor is that another team offered Imanaga more money.
  6. Werner said it, not Henry. Werner wants to spend. Henry doesn't. Werner just doesn't have enough say.
  7. At this point, it seems like it's 99% a bridge to '25 and pray the prospects turn out. How will they construct the rotation next year? Who knows!
  8. Even if you ignore the "full throttle" portion of the quote, him saying saying "we know we have to be competitive next year" and them giving us another bridge year is embarrassing.
  9. He's been right this offseason though.
  10. From Breslow's introductory press conference: “We know that we have to be competitive next year,” said Red Sox chairman Tom Werner. “We're going to be competitive next year. You know that we're going to have to be full throttle in every possible way.” “I don’t see financial resources as a limiting factor,” said Breslow. “I think that was something that was clear in the conversations that we had. Obviously, I think we have to line up a number of variables there. Interest and fit among two of them. The refrain I will keep hammering in these conversations is that there is a relentless interest in winning from all parties.” When Bloom was fired: "We're aiming for World Series Championships. That's it. That's the aim," said Sam Kennedy.
  11. This is getting out of hand. Now there are two of them!
  12. This is what Carrabis deserves for believing Henry wasn't wrong for looking at his watch last year...
  13. Who would know better: the hot dog vendor in Portland or John Farrell? Hard to say!
  14. How can you trust a guy that was going through female sports reporters like tic tacs?
  15. And you said you were going to be better. Hmph...
  16. Ownership doesn't care about 2024, year 1 of this deal. Ownership cares about years 2-6 of this deal. We are currently on a very long bridge and I don't know when the exit will be.
  17. Bad contract. He was likely to get injured was a ticking time bomb performance wise. The only suspect was Pedroia's health!
  18. You're missing a lot o the backstory though. We spent YEARS litigating whether or not to trade JBJ every year. When he was finally gone, it was like a veil had been lifted on the forum. When Bloom brought him back, it was just all so confusing due to the layers of conversations we had over the years. I'd be like Henry bringing Bloom back next season as Sam's Assistant.
  19. JBJ's playing weight was 196. He did hit his weight every year he played in BOS, FYI.
  20. Should have just traded Dustin to make room for Mookie at 2B.
  21. For the most part, the majority of the board didn't like this trade. At best, it was wait and see. Sox should have held onto Renfroe. Some of the shine from the '21 season would have worn off eventually though.
  22. 1 Inning, 2 SB's, WP, E https://www.upi.com/Archives/1987/07/17/Mike-Greenwell-forced-to-make-his-major-league-catching/9890553492800/
  23. He sucks at a lot of things.
  24. Uh, excuse me...... @alexspeier Anthopoulos informed Grissom that Atlanta felt like it needed to trade for a pitcher. Informed of that, Grissom responded, “I can pitch.” Anthopoulos described himself as “incredibly fond” of Grissom, who he views as “a really special kid.”
