  1. You are wildly overstating what Kelly provided to the team.
  2. The Sox were Pedro's third chance. Sorry to say everyone! Dude was basically a poor dog left at a shelter when we found him.
  3. Criswell doesn't have a big split difference between starting and relieving, but I don't see him impacting the bullpen anyway. He's a AAA guy to me. Winck should be in the pen 100%.
  4. Tom has zero power in this ownership group. They only put him in front of a microphone because Henry won't show up.
  5. For the Sox, it has less to do with interest rates and more to do with the state of television. They used to make a ton of money off of NESN and got a lot of views, but that has fallen off even when the team has been successful.
  6. It was Larry that wanted to take down the Evil Empire. He was front and center. Henry was in the background even then.
  7. Wormtongue’s full quote: “When we have two sucky seasons like we’ve had, these are natural questions. We have to take them. But I can tell you, as a kid who grew up less than a mile from Fenway Park, if you think for one second that we aren’t passionate, committed, dedicated to the Boston Red Sox, you’re wrong, you’re a liar, and I’ll correct you on it, because it’s total BS. We are committed. We are frustrated. We take it personally. It angers us when we don’t win. And we understand that there are natural questions. But look back in history – these questions come up when we’re not performing at the Major League level. We have to perform at the Major League level, and those questions will go away. But to say that the attention or the commitment or the care isn’t there is just flat wrong.”
  8. Actually… “You’re a liar if say ownership isn’t committed.” - Sam Wormtongue Kennedy
  9. Werner on NESN with @TomCaron "Too focused on two words (full throttle). You're a journalist, you know, that's a little overblown. Full Throttle is the way I live my own life, it's my mantra. I don't accept mediocrity, we as a group don't accept mediocrity." We’re too focused on two words (wins, losses).
  10. If they were getting a real ace and extending them, trade whatever. With the guidelines ownership has issued, may as well just put up a s*** MLB team for a year and take your lumps. If the prospects don’t work out, this org is in big trouble.
  11. It’ll work for a few years due to the allure of Fenway, but they’ll get under 30k average in the next few years if they continue to not put money in.
  12. Ownership has a long term plan that will change at a moment’s notice.
  13. It’ll be visiting fans filling up the stadium (at a lesser capacity) and they won’t give a s***.
  14. It’s the season to root for the farm and s*** on miserly John Henry.
  15. More of a Cascade fan?
  16. Dreaming of a good team is all we got.
  17. Will probably spend more time watching the POR games than the BOS games in the first half of the season. That’s the only benefit of getting mlb.tv.
  18. Spending Sox money on development around Fenway, not the team itself.
  19. He confirms the Sox will have a payroll less than last year then says “we understand the boos, it’s on us to fix it.” Bad baseball and higher prices may make it an ugly season.
  20. Yes, happens a lot recently.
  21. Do they hang loofas on their cars?
  22. I've only been to 39. Not sure I'll ever cross off ND, SD, MT, ID or a few others.
  23. This team may need a season where they win less than 70 games for Henry to wake up. Being to close to .500 has made him think it was just a trade deadline oopsie.
  24. One vote for make the playoffs.
