  1. I don't totally disagree, but it's pretty obvious at this point they're not going to increase payroll. Trying to be realistic here. Best case scenario for Sox fans who want them to go for it is that they virtually stand pat. That would give a shadow of hope for a Wild Card spot at least.
  2. It's getting harder and harder to see how they can re-set and be competitive this year.
  3. Because going over by $39.9 million costs John Henry $30 million more than going over by $20 million? That would be one reason.
  4. But if they're getting lowball offers there's not much sense taking them. Maybe Bloom is asking too much, if the rumor about asking prospects for Price is true.
  5. It's really hard to make a good movie or novel that revolves around sports. The original of The Longest Yard might be the best one, but that also revolved around prison, obviously. The best sports novel ever is North Dallas Forty. The movie was barely adequate, although Nick Nolte was excellent.
  6. Weirdly enough I think Fever Pitch is one of the only baseball movies I've ever truly enjoyed. Bad News Bears was great at the time.
  7. At the moment it feels like they're stymied, like they're just not getting any acceptable offers. Are they really going to wait till spring training and hope another team loses a pitcher to injury so they can trade them Price?
  8. Posts like this are worse than no posts at all. Note: when you say 'probably', adding 'or not' is redundant.
  9. I think it's logical for Sox fans to go back to 2002, because that's when Henry bought the team and turned us around. And it's all been in the era of big money. That said I certainly don't overlook the Yanks long history of dominance.
  10. If this doesn't get 700hitter and Elktonnick excited, I don't know what will!
  11. None.
  12. Well, if nothing happens it won't actually be the worst thing for the fans. It'll mean they said screw it about the re-set this year.
  13. Sometimes the docs mess up too.
  14. Thank you for seeing the point.
  15. One thing about Eovaldi is, and correct me if I'm wrong, but his last two injured stints were not for actual injuries. They were procedures to remove 'loose bodies' which came from his last TJ surgery. Rather annoying that it would happen twice.
  16. Poor Stanley. He was one of the goats in both the 78 playoff game and 86 Game 6.
  17. We have no good options right now.
  18. Might as well make it an even .500 - 81.
  19. You guys keep amusing yourselves with fantasies of fancy multi-player deals...
  20. That sounds good, but in the meantime, what a snooze. I'm practically drooling on myself now.
  21. I would agree.
  22. Screw the bad contract trades. We need to find another team willing to pay Price 54 million or more. If no such team exists, might as well forget the re-set for 2020.
  23. I agree.
  24. Grady was going to have to use the bullpen in that game eventually. I don't think even Grady planned to have Pedro throw 155 pitches like Luis Tiant did in Game of the 1975 WS.
  25. Wait till next decade!
