  1. Yep, all true.
  2. Apparently that answer was only about trading prospects. Phew.
  3. The 2024 Opening Day payroll number is one thing they can't hide from.
  4. And they have plenty of payroll room, 30 or 40 million under the first tax threshold, not to mention 100 million or so behind the Dodgers, Mets and Yankees. It's all a ******** story to cover up what they really want, which is a fatter bottom line for FSG.
  5. Jeezus Crag. That is a really horrible answer.
  6. Bad managers can screw up a team in many ways. See: Valentine, Robert, 2012.
  7. Yeah, I'm not even disagreeing with you guys. I'm just thinking that if there are no more significant moves this offseason, and the Sox win 78 games again, who do we blame then?
  8. Cora was punished and reinstated. End of story. It's the 'backstabbing' claims of yours that's the made-up part.
  9. Blame for cutting the payroll, for losing Betts and Bogaerts, and for finishing under .500 over and over.
  10. The problem with those 10 biggest signings is that many of them were actually small. The only reason I'm defending Bloom is that it looks more and more like the real culprit is Henry's tight-fistedness.
  11. The word 'scapegoat' has been used plenty of times.
  12. Got a link to that story? Time we nailed this down!
  13. I think Larry said to Ben: 'you pick one and I'll pick one, and we'll announce them together'.
  14. But you thought he should have added, and the stories that leaked out were about him not selling off.
  15. Honestly we have no clue exactly why he was fired.
  16. Because Henry started losing his marbles around that time.
  17. Undercut Bloom in what way? Are you saying Cora got Bloom fired?
  18. Price was a "you gotta do what you gotta do" signing. I was neither happy nor unhappy about it. I definitely understood it. I wouldn't go back and undo it, either. Might be one less ring if you do that.
  19. But the good news is the owners will be able to pocket a whole lot more cash over that time!
  20. So we'll just deny that Seager, Semien and Eovaldi had much to do with the Rangers being the current champions. Yeah, I'm sure they'd be champs without those guys. The Sox would probably still be without a title since 1918 without their free agents. You're arguing on principles and trying to gloss over reality.
  21. What exactly do you mean by 90% fluff?
  22. Free agency is not largely just for PR.
  23. With the latest assurances of commitment, they've put themselves in a position that if the payroll is below 230, and the W-L record is below .500 again, how can they not be...ashamed, or something?
  24. List them or don't.
