    So why not fire him after 2022?
  2. Bellhorn04
    They've been wrong about so much the last few years, I guess we shouldn't be surprised that they keep being wrong.
  3. Bellhorn04
    It's worse than that, because it appears they weren't really even in on Yamamoto.
  4. Bellhorn04
    There's absolutely no chance they're even considering Snell IMHO.
  5. Bellhorn04
    FWIW I read a story about Henry and DD being overheard in a heated argument about the Sale extension. No doubt there were some differences in thinking going on. Henry was probably looking for any excuse to fire DD after that.

    Spending is all relative. Spotrac says the Sox were #13 in payroll for 2023. But they're #3 in team market value and gross revenue.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Easy was signing cheaper free agents.
  8. Bellhorn04
    AFAIK, the only reported offers are the Dodgers, Mets and Yanks. The 3 that were actually serious. There's absolute zero info on the Sox. Not even sure they made a formal offer.
  9. Bellhorn04
    I didn't see that exact quote, but his actions certainly don't belie it.

    How am I mind reading? You thought the Sox were going all in on Moto. Isn't it pretty obvious they were not players at all?
  11. Bellhorn04
    Bloom had a long-term plan too. Henry doesn't want to spend, but he has no patience either.
  12. Bellhorn04
    The Sox proprietary Team Building Analytics keeps cranking out the message that starting pitching is too expensive and is best to be avoided...
  13. Bellhorn04
    Me too, but the speculation is that the Sox aren't in on him.
  14. Bellhorn04
    No, they haven't, actually, if you take the time to go through the list. It's a mixed bag.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Let's be clear, nobody was "excited" about Lugo. But he did have a 2.8 fWAR this year, higher than anyone on the Sox staff. The real point is they are not in on any of the big names either. Their "involvement" on Moto was a f'king joke. That should tell us where this front office's head is - still up their asses.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Yes, he's older, and he only signed for 3 years. Seems like the kind of deal that would appeal to the Sox. But no.

    MLBTR predicted 6 and 150 for Montgomery. No idea where the 105 came from.
  18. Bellhorn04
    They only use present value when there are significant deferrals.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Gray has been significantly inferior to Montgomery on which planet? And part of the issue is that they're not in on Monty either.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Aha, but the present value has been calculated at "only" 460 million and the AAV at 46 million.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Most of us were in agreement on who the top 6 free agent starting pitchers were. At this point it appears the Red Sox were not seriously in on any of them. That's fairly incredible IMHO.
  22. Bellhorn04
    That's nice, but in the real world Lugo was #19 on MLBTR's list of all free agents.
  23. Bellhorn04
    And the speculation seems to be that the Sox aren't really in on Montgomery. Which is disturbing if true.
  24. Bellhorn04
    They were over on Gray in total dollars (4/90). They were virtually bang on on ERod (4/82). They were virtually bang on on Lugo (3/42). Which supports my theory that the Sox missed the boat on the reasonable ones. Now they're left with Montgomery at an inflated price.
  25. Bellhorn04
    That's what Alex Speier speculated. Seems like a solid theory.
