  1. I think most people are unhappy about the below .500 seasons. The argument seems to be that some people aren't unhappy enough.
  2. It keeps people punchy for sure.
  3. Yeah, it's not the 9 last place finishes and 1 championship scenario that moon has presented.
  4. But that's the HOPE that 5GG was talking about. It was easier for them to HOPE prior to the current cycle. Some of us still have HOPE now.
  5. I have a regulation sized PawSox bat that I got signed on the field by both players at one of their events.
  6. I try not get dragged into that morass of negativity. I don't see the harm in conversing and disagreeing. Sometimes there are things that are provably wrong like "I saw Valdez play SS and he looked good" which was virtually impossible.
  7. I agree. I was just looking at how Senga adjusted and projected there. The same way Suzuki and Matsui's rookie OPS's look a lot like Masa's rookie season. Both of those guys bounced back in year 2. We'll see if Masa can as well.
  8. I'm so glad the auditors will be out here bothering me on Wednesday interrupting me watching the draft. Hmph...
  9. Does any opinion ever change on here?
  10. I still have a Mo Vaugh/Scott Cooper signed bat in my closet. Teams and players from when you are younger play such a big role in your perspective. Unfortunately, I wasn't around for the '67 or '75 years. I think a large reason I pay attention to prospects is because I spent a lot of my summer nights at McCoy with my parents over the years than I ever did at Fenway when I was an adult and I lived less than 2 miles from Fenway for about 6 years.
  11. Red Sox regular season winning % by period 67-03: 53.8%, 0 championships 04-23: 54.5%, 4 championships
  12. 1. Those teams are your favorite because you were YOUNGER. Just like how I'm fond of the '86 team. 2. Nobody is making excuses for the bad teams and saying that it's acceptable. They fired the CBO. It's time for them to field a competitive team again and stop wasting time.
  13. Senga MLB: 3.52 ERA, 3.63 FIP, 166 Inn, 202 K, 77 BB Japan '22: 1.89 ERA, 148 Inn, 156 k, 50 BB Yamamoto Japan '23: 1.16 ERA, 171 Inn, 176 K, 28 BB Projection?: 3.20 ERA, 185 Inn, 185 K, 40 BB If he does that projection, he's an ace.
  14. It wasn't over analyzing, it was answering the question. 5GGGGG said he was happier before the WS than 04-23 and would have been a happier fan if they hadn't won a WS, but continued to have a higher Win %. I wouldn't. Over and over we heard "just one before I die." I guess it wasn't true? People just wanted the loveable losers and the curse and that crap? I want championships and Ortiz sending Hunter into the pen and Mueller hitting walkoffs and unlikely Steve Pearce MVP's. I answered the question. It just wasn't appreciated HOW I answered the question.
  15. Health looms over every pitching contract though.
  16. I guess the question is also would I rather be a Red Sox fan since 2012 or a Blue Jays/Rays/Yankees/O's fan. I'd take the Red Sox. O's are set up fairly well in the short term, but their owner is complete garbage and I don't trust him. Rays have a great FO, but can't get over the hump and are building their new stadium in the same place that can't draw people now. Jays org is mid.
  17. Just third place! Just third place! Just third place!
  18. Now!!!! 2018 was great. 2013 was great. It sucks that our recent two seasons were frustrating, but even 2021 was a fun ride to the ALCS. That wasn't that long ago!
  19. Did the '88 or '90 teams that were in 1st place even have a chance of beating the A's to get to the WS? No f***ing way! That '95 1st place team had Mike MacFarlane, Luis Alicea and Lee Tinsley as up the middle everyday starters. Aside from '86, the Red Sox weren't really good from 80 - 97. We were just lucky that they had some HOF talent that we got to watch along the way. It was on the FO for not being able to fill out that roster.
  20. What a surprise that the "just win one before I die" crowd turns to "winning 4 wasn't enough for me because it's a roller coaster. I guarantee that everyone would have signed onto 4 championships in a rollercoaster rather than "wait til next year."
  21. Sox can't sign her. She already signed with Vandy.
  22. https://web.musc.edu/about/news-center/2023/05/16/home-run-dermatologist It'll only be for one year in Boston for her and she's very open about her relationship. Thankfully, there's no team yet in Nashville.
  23. Today is the first day of the Winter Meetings. Time for Breslow to earn his keep. He's reportedly been busy hiring additional pitching coordinators throughout the system.
  24. Lugo 2.8 fWAR Clevinger 2.2 fWAR
  25. She's not in medical school, she's doing her residency.
