What isn't bad luck is thinking a rotation of Houck, Crawford, Bello, Giolito and Pivetta + Whitlock is going to get the job done.
What isn't bad luck is not doing anything about it when Giolito and Whitlock go down.
Maybe the fact we had a bunch of guys with s***** four-seam fastballs that Bailey told them to ditch is kind of a bad thing.
Other teams seem to catch on to what you're doing after a little while!
Looks like it's gonna be deja vu for Craig all over again this offseason, assuring the fans that they're going to address the pitching and be aggressive about it...
I don't think anyone will argue with that last sentence.
Another thing that can't be argued is that the Red Sox championship teams all included some pricy-and productive-free agent signings...
That was an ownership level move. The Boston Red Sox do not trade Mookie Betts unless John Henry gives it the stamp of approval first. CBO's come and go, but Henry is the one with the lasting legacy, like Harry Frazee.
