  1. The extra rest might have affected him a bit, but yeah, if this is one of his bad ones it's pretty good.
  2. Right. But Pivetta will be gone next year unless they sign him to a new contract, and the price tag for Houck and Crawford will keep going up. It's a constant financial juggling act on a high wire.
  3. The Sox have had a run of 18 games at .500, 1 game over or 1 game under. It'll be 19 after tonight, of course.
  4. Put it this way, the only logical way the quality of baseball would be worse in 2024 than in 2023 is if a pile of stars retired after 2023.
  5. You're more than entitled to your opinion, and no one is going to change it. But I just can't see any logic in the idea that the quality of play has gotten worse. Some teams have improved, some have gone backward, but that's the way it's always been. And the average record is still .500.
  6. There's just no possible way to substantiate that.
  7. The good news is we would have lost even if Dom made the play.
  8. At's what I was tryin' to say.
  9. That sounds like it could be real.
  10. Probably so, but the "every team is represented" thing watered down the significance of All Star appearances.
  11. And his latest comments about unrealistic expectations and 1 in 30 chances were reptilian to the max.
  12. It would certainly help if the few relatively big moves they do make, like signing Giolito and trading Sale for Grissom, didn't blow up in their faces. But it keeps happening.
  13. But that doesn't matter much if the 2024 team is going nowhere. The last 2 years they could have gotten a load of stuff by selling but they passed. I don't think they want to go for a 3-peat.
  14. I think we do know a few things based on the last offseason. They had no intention of investing very heavily in 2024. Plus I think what I said about why Bloom was fired is a fair statement. There's no way Breslow wants to repeat the same mistake. And they have plenty of cover with all the injuries.
  15. This team does not want to try to make the playoffs. They want to sell off, save a few bucks and add some prospects. Bloom got fired for his deadline confusion. They don't want any of that this year.
  16. You must be one of those poor unfortunate folks with unrealistic expectations. Just read what Henry said, it will get your mind right.
  17. We're not thinking small, man, we're thinking cynical. Pivetta and Jansen are going to be traded because the 2024 team isn't going anywhere, it wasn't designed to go anywhere, their contracts expire at the end of the year and we'll get some prospects back for them.
  18. Hoping is what we do here. Until bad s*** starts happening, of course.
  19. He was no Scott Cooper.
  20. You did get your wish on Ref.
  21. He was the worst Cooper to play for the Red Sox.
  22. And nobody is actually debating that.
  23. Look, I'm the one who started this particular foolish discussion, and I was talking about Devers having a sore knee in August after the team sells off.
