I'm confident Bloom will be able to follow in the footsteps of his old boss Friedman.

No one should be maligning Seager's contract.

Yankees still have an 87.5% chance of making the playoffs.

It happens about 35% of the time. -
Because I took the lazy man's route and only looked at B-R.
-
Devers is a fine young hitter, but he is also a minus defender and minus baserunner. So we're not talking about a Mookie-type talent or price tag by any means,
-
The Sox could absolutely afford Mookie. They just didn't want to pay him $30 million a year till he's 40. And I knew the cliff was a real possibility. My avatar was just trying to be funny about it.
-
So 4 years ago you predicted Chris Sale and E-Rod would miss the 2020 season? That would make you Edgar Freakin' Cayce.
-
Somebody mentioned how great it was that Yaz played his whole career with the Sox and was productive almost till the end. And it was great. But I think Yaz was on one-year contracts most of the time. Now you have to sign a 12-year contract to keep your superstar. That's crazy.
-
It's the expensive crappy players that really hurt a team.
-
I think baseball will rebound when the plague is finally under control - hopefully by the start of next season.
-
You're right, but it was a perfect shitstorm that put us in this position.

Dalbec has 6 dingers in a hurry. -
Moving him to closer should only be a last resort.
-
Peak Sale for me.
-
Relax. You're guessing, same as us. I highly doubt Mookie told them he had no interest in ever signing a long-term deal with Boston. That would have been dumb. Who the hell ever thought David Price would want to play 7 years in Boston? The 217 million did the trick, not his love of the city.
-
Who knows? He certainly did the next year.
-
That's partially but not completely true. Eovaldi's 2018 regular season fWAR was 2.2, which had a dollar value of $17.5 million. His injury history was obviously a big concern, but he had proven to be a good pitcher when healthy. He also had a 3.3 fWAR in 2014 and a 3.2 fWAR in 2015.
-
The thing about Price was, we were in desperate need of a starting pitcher. The main alternatives that year were Greinke, who got a similar deal to Price, and Cueto, who got "only" 130 million, but has missed even more time than Price. Not sure what DD was supposed to do that would have been clearly better.
-
One correction - Betts will be 28 when his new contract begins next year.
-
Yes, Henry has always spent on the team. He knows that's part of the deal when you own the Red Sox. That's why I like him.
-
The answer is simple - personal philosophies and feelings. We all have different ones.
-
I am a big John Henry fan (as far as you can be a fan of a billionaire owner). I've been a Red Sox fan since 1969. Pre-Henry 1969-2001 33 years no rings Post-Henry 2002-2020 19 years 4 rings

The 4 biggest free agent starters that offseason were: Price 7/217 million Greinke 6/206.5 million Cueto 6/130 million J Zimmerman 5/110 million
