    Campbell and Anthony are the ones who have to spark the interest. The rest of that lineup stunk for the last 6 weeks of the season.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Sure, as long as you asterisk the other shortened seasons too.

    What a lot of people probably don't realize is that Henry isn't even majority owner of the team any more. There is no majority owner. FSG needed a big cash infusion because of Covid losses and they sold a 10% share to RedBird Capital. At that point Henry's share went down to about 40%. All the stereotypes about FSG are true, unfortunately. We're being run by a consortium with a lot of stakeholders to please. Red Sox fans seem to be low on the list.

    Same principle. Not a full season, anything could happen in the games that were missed, blah, blah, blah You already know my stance on 2020, I'm just being mischievous for the sake of it, to pass the time on another no-news-is-bad-news day from the Sox. 😀

    1995 shouldn't even count, according to those who say 2020 shouldn't count! 🙃

    I don't think there's actually that much talk about it. For whatever reason Cora decided to put it out there as a possibility. Maybe it was just to make Yoshida feel better about himself...

    And the ownership of the time backed him up by funding the extension for Pedro, and the signing of Manny, which was the next huge step forward..
  8. Bellhorn04
    I think it's as simple as that too.
  9. Bellhorn04
    I kind of forgot about this too, but they only played 144 games in 1995, so 86-58 was not so bad.
  10. Bellhorn04
    It was spotty, but they did make the playoffs in 1995. The Pedro trade was a mammoth step forward for sure.
  11. Bellhorn04
    I guess I'm just tired of waiting.
  12. Bellhorn04
    I don't know, man. In the Duquette years it did feel like the team was at least TRYING every year.
  13. Bellhorn04
    But this is what we've been reduced to. Last year's team played .500 for a long time, had a hot streak before the break that raised hopes, and played .420 ball after the break.
  14. Bellhorn04
    I get that. I've reached the point where it's become more of a black comedy than anything.
  15. Bellhorn04
    And last year stunk about as bad as the two years before it. Not sure why last year is a reason to feel optimistic about anything. It's more like, why should we expect anything different?
  16. Bellhorn04
    The idea that Wong is going to suddenly improve his D is just another joke on us. Wong and Narvaez is a terrible plan. Cheap, though.
  17. Bellhorn04
    There are always injuries. The thing with the Red Sox is they have no depth to cover them. If Raffy goes down it's basically a lost season. The offense flatlined from mid-August on when Raffy was injured and flailing.
  18. Bellhorn04
    We say projections are useless, but the pre-season team projections for the Red Sox as a .500ish team the last 3 years turned out to be dead on. Projections for individual players are really difficult, but over a team the variances tend to even out a lot. Maybe it's just that the Sox have become a very predictably mediocre team.
  19. Bellhorn04
    He wasn't anyway.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Sorry, I'm disgusted with their offseason "effort" once again. What's really going on just gets more and more obvious. Kennedy's blurb about going over the CBT threshold was just another dangled carrot.
  21. Bellhorn04
    OK, it's down to Grichuk vs. Diddlesquat. Stay tuned.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Casas isn't getting traded. That ship has sailed. No worries about Bregman, that's not happening either. It's a purely academic debate.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Jack is cheap as heck and causes no roster complications. It's no wonder the Sox are so big on him.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Why even bother at this point.
  25. Bellhorn04
    I'm not all excited about Alex Bregman. I just have a feeling the alternative is Jack DIddlesquat.
