  1. But the other side of the equation is that the Yankees are unlikely to hand us a great catching prospect for nothing.
  2. We can probably credit Breslow with the shift.
  3. I guess what you're saying is that he was inconsistent. The only thing is you can say that about 95% of MLB hitters.
  4. Seems like they were concerned he'd accept it, and just didn't think he was worth $21 mill.
  5. Mahomes is right up there with the all-time best for his ability to deliver a scoring drive when the game is on the line. Obviously he still has a way to go to catch Brady for playoff success. Brady 7-3 in SBs Mahomes will be 4-1 or 3-2 after this one.
  6. This isn't meant to undermine your point, but when I looked up Seattle's W-L splits last year I couldn't help noticing that they got annihilated by both Detroit and Minnesota, going a combined 3-10, scoring 34 and giving up 71.
  7. Unfortunately the Red Sox could only take 4 of 7 from them.
  8. Meanwhile, Raffy's shoulders are going to be good as new again, because he's been his taking his Advil every day.
  9. But if we re-signed him, we'd be talking about the possibility that he might be healthier and do better in 2025. 🙃
  10. Oh, they definitely had their rea$on$.
  11. To "added Chapman" they forgot to add "but lost Jansen and Martin."
  12. It's pick your poison with these guys.
  13. I'm so cynical now that I'm almost hoping for the Jays to make a couple more signings that vault them past us in the projections, just to embarrass our leaders some more.
  14. Brez is the boss, but he did make a 4 year offer. Presumably just the usual confusion and dysfunction.
  15. Seems like people are catching onto our non-seriousness!
  16. Seems like another case of the Sox offering less than they know it takes to get it done. They have a ton of experience at it. Not that I want Bregman, at this point I'd actually be happy to read that the Stros signed him. These drawn-out melodramas of the offseason (reminiscent of Monty last year) really get tiresome and the outcomes are usually anticlimactic.
  17. I'm concerned about our offense for 3 reasons: 1) The horrible finish to 2024 - averaging about 3 runs a game for the last 6 weeks. Some of that was Devers being hurt, obviously, but it could have been more - maybe pitchers had figured out how to attack our weaknesses. 2) Losing O'Neill, our third best hitter in 2024, and replacing him with J. Diddlesquat. 3) How did Devers's inflamed shoulders heal? As I've been saying the big hope is the kids, and it sure looks like they're going to count on them.
  18. Football is definitely not as random as baseball.
  19. I thought 5 Gloves was clearly, though cleverly, referencing both presidents. "New administration" is kind of the giveaway. But let's all just stop referring to his post and move on.
  20. I'm unhappy because they've won 78, 78 and 81 games and missed the playoffs the last 3 years, and they continue not to spend money the way they could to sign talent, to the detriment of the team. Most projections have us as an 85 win team or so. They can do better than that. They're spending like a mid market team which they're not. Kennedy says they're aiming to be a 90+ win team, but they're just not backing it up. They lose O'Neill's bat and do nothing to replace him. My beef is not with Breslow. I think he's probably doing a good job given the restraints he's under.
  21. It's refreshing to have a guy like Cohen be so candid with everyone. Feels like this was the unvarnished truth.
  22. It's turning out much like last offseason. There was a flurry of big money signings, we expected it to continue, but then everything really slowed down. Now it feels like the old game of waiting for the prices to come down. Flaherty and Pivetta will get signed, but it looks like for much less than they hoped.
  23. Yeah, this seems like a good time to remind everyone: politics are an absolute no-go, no matter how subtly you express your opinions.
  24. They should really sign David Robertson. If he signs elsewhere for a 1 year reasonable deal, it'll be more proof that they're still just being cheap.
  25. Weirdly enough, after our jabbering about the Ohtani gambling thing a few days ago, we find out they have a recording of the interpreter talking to a bank rep, impersonating Ohtani, saying the money is a loan to a friend for a car etc. The recording came from the bank so it appears to be pretty solid evidence against the interpreter.
