  1. I know and agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. "Mookie Betts' defense is so bad they are trying him in the OF!!!! Vaughn Grissom - 0 G in the OF
  3. Also? The trade was to get great prospects like Hamilton and Binelas!!!!!!!!!
  4. Because they have two long term contracts at 2B and SS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  5. A list of good not great 2B not in the HOF that were better than Bill Mazeroski: Julio Franco Chuck Knoblach Davey Lopes Tony Phillips Placido Polanco Dick McAuliffe
  6. Trading Renfroe isn't even at the level of trading Verdugo. C'mon. Renfroe will be on his 7th team in 6 years this season. Bloom was just continuing Renfroe's musical chair journey.
  7. Pablo Lopez hasn't been a real MiLB player since 2018. "The MIA org isn't very good at the moment." The last few years, the farm has taken a bit of a nosedive. Also, the previous director wasn't let go, but promoted to interim GM when Ng left.
  8. And he never made that mistake again.
  9. His Fielding Percentage (old school cool) at 2b is really high and most people that have worked hands on with him believe he'll work out there fine long term. He won't be Pedroia over there, but should be average once he's comfortable. The problem with the "he's a kid" is that this seems to be what the organization is holding out for. They are putting all their eggs on many of these prospects working out. I love prospects. I like a few of these prospects a lot. Not every prospect works out! The Sox don't have a history, especially recently, of churning out MLB talent from their farm. This is a very risky thing to try with this fanbase. They want a long term rebuild on an expensive product. This is John Henry's fingerprints. If there isn't a WS in the next decade, it's not because of the long line of CBO's but because of the restrictions put in place by the owner.
  10. Sox told them they'd have to dump more salary to afford the whistle.
  11. Bloom could never do the Sale or Verdugo trades. He's too much of a wimp.
  12. So far, the only people saying things that get them in trouble are John, Tom and Sam. The 3 Freakin' Stooges as moon said back when Sale was traded for.
  13. *Buzzer sound*
  14. The MIA org isn't very good at the moment. Not sure if that's due to scouting or development.
  15. The only issue with Stroman is the later day injury bug. Wonder how long his deal will be for.
  16. And yet you only put 2 years in your copy pasta here. Interesting!
  17. He was the Braves TOP prospect in '22 when promoted. He lost prospect status that year due to MLB AB's.
  18. Yeah, most prospects are unproven at the MLB level....
  19. The payroll is LESS than last year and the FA class is dwindling. It's clear that they will not make up the difference before Opening Day. They are in a retraction period. God only knows why.
  20. How could anyone ever be as good as Mazeroski and his 666 OPS. What an amazing player.
  21. If the Sox were intent in competing, they would've signed more than Giolito. The filter of not competing is all we have. If they were competing, they'd use the remaining 40M+ under the CBT on the rotation and be competitive regardless of the Sale deal.
  22. Since you love to do 3 year intervals, break out 2021 for us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  23. A 4 ERA is not a disaster. You can't just drop a Kluber and when referencing a 4 ERA guy. That's not the dumps that Kluber was taking on the mound.
  24. I'll be surprised if he's as bad as Kluber, yes. 7.04 ERA 5.80 xFIP I'm sure Giolito will do a lot better than that. A better chance he pitches like '21 Richards.
