  1. I'm sure the guy that replaces Leon will thrill everyone with his offense too.
  2. Sale always did better with Leon, including 2019. That's just an indisputable fact.
  3. 1986 was exciting. Just ended wrong.
  4. For me the 70's were very exciting but incredibly frustrating.
  5. I just look at it this way - which organization has done better than us since Henry bought the team?
  6. Plus you want action during the offseasons. You just want it all, basically.
  7. This is what I've been thinking from the get-go. Trading him at the deadline might easily yield the same thing, or even better if luck cooperates.
  8. I don't anyone will change their tune until we see Chris in real games. But it seems like encouraging news.
  9. Hopefully Bloom will be just the guy to do it.
  10. There's the rub, eh? Red Sox fans have less to complain about than any other franchise this century. But still we moan and groan quite a bit.
  11. As Dewey says, nothing can top a decade that had 2004 in it. But 2010-2019 was a very admirable sequel. And 2018 was the dream season.
  12. I suspect that the Red Sox are hoping that Bloom can follow in the footsteps of the previous Rays wunderkind, Andrew Friedman, who has been doing a great job for the wealthy Dodgers.
  13. There won't be much incoming if they're really trying to get below 208 mill.
  14. MLBTR rates JBJ as the 4th most likely player to be traded this offseason. You'll have to settle for that for now.
  15. I think the issue is that the Sox first objective is to subtract payroll, not add it.
  16. I might be getting this mixed up with the trade for Verlander?
  17. All of that is based on best case scenario, of course. I hope Mookie has a long, healthy career, but anything can happen in this game. It doesn't even have to be a disaster-type injury that derails a man's career. Sometimes it can be the so-called 'nagging' injuries that do it.
  18. So true. Yankee fans bemoan the (alleged) fact that they could have gotten Cole from the Pirates prior to the 2018 season, but Cashman balked because the Bucs wanted Chance Adams and Clint Frazier.
  19. No. Because those trade values are based on the years of control the team has. Mookie's trade value is 'only' 50 mill because he's only under control for one year. Devers is under control for 4 more years.
  20. Well, that says a lot about what an overpay his contract is. And I suspect that after Year One of Mookie's next contract there will be a negative value.
  21. Can you just tell me? I'm staying away from that web site, I waste enough time as it is.
  22. The simulator doesn't take into account the risk factor of paying a guy that much for that long.
  23. I do see your point, but I just can't see them basing such a huge decision on that.
  24. In other (non) news, Chris Sale has still not that had that second visit to the doc. They may have to strap him up like Hannibal Lecter to get him there.
