FIRE DANA LEVANGIE or say he's retiring NOW !!!!!
Bellhorn04 replied to Swiharts Ghost's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
I strongly doubt that Cora will be fired no matter who the new head honcho is. -
Yeah, plus that 4 championships thing. I have no complaints.
-
Sounds like you are real sure, cp.
-
You are the thread winner.
-
The Rays might shock Houston.

If you go by Porcello's ERA+ with Boston: 2015 87 #4 2016 142 #1 2017 98 #3 2018 103 #3 2019 87 #4

And Girardi.
-
Might as well throw in Showalter too.
-
Run a poll. Why not?
-
What was the effect of the penalties we got hit with when Ben was GM?
-
I can't make any sense of Spotrac's tax numbers. Cot's info is much better IMO.
-
The Astros are going to have some payroll issues of their own next year. They already have a 2020 projected payroll for tax purposes of $163 million, and that only covers 8 players, doesn't include any of the arb players.
-
Well, I'm afraid we can't put you in the 'not complaining' group.
-
Trading Iggy was pretty close to trading a top prospect, no? He was only 23 and in his rookie season, and under team control for 5 more years. It was a trade of the future for the present.
-
'Ideally', yes. But there is a big gap between the ideal and the real. Just take a look at Theo's farm system now. He's having the same issues as us.
-
You didn't think we should have traded Iggy for him though.
-
But even having 'good, cheap players' from the farm has a pretty short window now. It does if it's a really top player, at least. Mookie will end up getting paid about 60 million for his 3 arb years. That's not exactly cheap.
-
I call it the economics of modern baseball. Even the richest teams can only afford to keep a very small number of elite players.
-
No idea.
-
Looks that way, doesn't it?
-
No one can predict what will happen in a single game.
-
I think devastating is hyperbole. Do we have our work cut out to field a contending team next year or in 2021? Absolutely.
-
Depleted, hopefully back on the rise per Baseball America's promoting it to #22.
-
And I don't think the trades of Espinoza and Beeks devastated anything.
-
I would say Dombrowski UTILIZED the farm, or EXPLOITED the farm, to get us 3 division titles and a championship. And no, I'm not complaining about it. Which doesn't mean I'm unaware of the importance of the farm or that it needs improvement.
