Cerebral but not very humble.

Your mistake, then, was not doing it on the thread for the Pearce signing where it would have been readily accessible.
-
No doubt some of the criticisms are warranted, but it's amusing how you leave out or downplay anything that might reflect well. You left out Verlander. You make Bogey sound like DD didn't even have anything to do with it. You liked the Eovaldi signing and wanted the Yanks to sign him. Funny s***.
-
Reaction here to the Pearce signing was overwhelmingly positive at the time. You should have voiced your dissent on that thread, it would have made you look wise, now that Steve and Mitch are doing their duet on "American Idle".
-
All my sentiments exactly.

Every sports fan is on their own personal trip. You do see mob behavior, but when you come on a message board like this you see that other fans all have their own personal perspective. That's why we argue so much LOL I admit to deriving great satisfaction from the Red Sox run of championships. My profile as a sports fan is pretty simple. The Red Sox are the only sports team I have cared about long-term. Favorite teams in other sports were all short-term. And I was a Red Sox fan for 35 years before seeing them win a title. I was 48 years old before knowing what it was like to have my team win a championship. It was quite a relief.
-
The bottom line is, though, we are tied for the most runs scored per game in the majors. You can't ask for much more than that. -
I think we have a great owner. He has brought us those 4 titles. He is driven to win. We have the highest payroll. I have no real complaints. If others want to complain that's their prerogative, but no one should tell me I'm not a good fan. I've paid my dues. I've been with this team since the late Sixties. I've been through hell, just like every other Sox fan who's been with them that long.

I disagree. A sports franchise is different because sometimes they actually are much better off by getting worse. When you trade high priced talent for prospects you get worse but your farm improves. When you finish last you get higher draft picks. Sports franchises are in a constant state of flux. Another thing that's different about sports franchises is that sometimes the team owners make much higher profits by putting a crappy team on the field.
-
The offense has lost some games, sure, but overall they are doing their job.
-
Personally I think the only thing DD should have done differently this season was do more about the bullpen. Most of the rest comes down to s*** happens. If it was that easy to repeat, someone else would have done it this century. It's all been one and dones. And we have 3 or 4 more titles than almost every other team this century. I'll take it.
-
This is 100% illogical when it comes to a sports franchise. it's obviously impossible to improve the team's record each year. All you can do is be as good as possible given your circumstances.
-
Maybe Dombrowski thought the 2018-2019 teams were like the 2007-2008 teams, not the 2013-2014 teams.
-
What I'm saying is that they're scoring plenty of runs, but the pitching sucks. If the pitching was better the W-L record would be where it should be.
-
I fail to see what any of that has to do with the ongoing struggles of Sale, Porcello and the bullpen.

The Starting Rotation Performance Thread
Bellhorn04 replied to YastrzemskI's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
GTFO with your lame attempts at being reasonable! -
So how come the offense is good and it's the pitching that sucks? It's nonsense to try to tack it on all on Cora and his ST approach. We've got pitchers who are just not getting it done and I'm sure they're pretty damn frustrated about it.
-
Yeah, I guess we'll have to console ourselves with our 4 rings since the Mariners last made the playoffs.
-
Condensed version: Guys, you're f***ed. So suck on it. Hahahahahahahahaha
-
I just can't believe how bad our pitching is. That's about all I can say.
-
It's not exactly a super-bold prediction, considering the dude is almost 32 and had barely pitched in MLB until last year.
-
LOL what a difference a few hours makes, huh?
-
Maybe and maybe.
-
I think it's just shuttling guys to and from Pawtucket, Nick. Brasier pitched the last 3 in a row so he was the logical candidate to go down.

Starting with 2019 there are no trades after July 31.
