Schwarbstone has been a great offensive weapon his whole career.
-
The options are much slimmer than Sammy Boy expected! The "Thanks but no thanks" message was redirected back at him.
-
Ryan Pressly was a Rule 5 selection from the Red Sox in 2007.
-
Seattle got exactly what they deserved for trading their closer when they were in the hunt. What a loser franchise.
-
It does. There's no way around it any more. It doesn't mean we're doomed, but it's definitely a real thing.
-
And the argument that a lot of people will be interested because the pay's good is not holding up well at all here... Seems like a lot of these folks don't care only about the dough.
-
Arizona has no right to be where they are right now. They had a run differential of -15 this year! But Rob Manfred's Crapshoot Extravaganza has opened the door to mediocre teams to get hot in October and grab a ring...
-
"Closin' ain't easy." - dgalehouse. Ryan Pressly has emerged as the reigning money man of closers. Pressly has allowed 1 earned run in his last 30 postseason innings.
-
There sure are a lot of qualified people who don't seem to appreciate the opportunity that's being presented! Sam's blustery bravado is not aging well. A clear message has been delivered by a pretty large number of declining candidates. Henry has richly earned this mistrust.
-
Ng turned down an interview.
-
Cora has one year left on his managerial contract and has said he plans to manage next year. Everyone is now operating on that assumption. It would make them look even more scattered if they give him a different job for 2024 from manager, IMHO. Plus, Grumpy Bill is not making the GM/coach thing look very good to New Englanders these days.
-
The only way they've known all along is if it's Romero, I would say.
-
Unless you think anyone would be better than Bloom?

Do you always log in here on a tablet or a phone? It takes me a while to log in here on my tablet. But if you leave this site in your browsing history, you can access it right away.
-
That's weird too.
-
But on a serious note, setting the money aside, does any rational being want to go through what Bloom went through? Your boss is an impatient, mercurial prick, and the customers are demanding and crazy.

Those Orioles teams of 1969-70-71 were powerful teams. But they only won 1 out of 3 WS's. Similar to the A's of 1988-89-90. Like the O's they won in the middle year. So many odd parallels in baseball history.
-
If only some candidate would say he's declining because of No f***ing Way Do I Want to be Henry's Next Sacrificial Lamb Considerations.
-
Craig Kimbrel has had a long and mostly great career, but he mostly takes grief here, because of his shaky performance in the 2018 postseason.
-
Very true. Eck (1988,1992) as well, and Papelbon (2009,2011).
-
Is that when the titles of baseball executives started getting fuzzy, or was it before that?
-
Wow, good digging there.
-
John Henry's brain went bad.
-
Right, so now they're trying to make it look like there are a lot of qualified but under-the-radar candidates that nobody else thought of!
-
That's the mystery. Like I've said before, it really seems like he was under the impression he was working on a 5 year plan.
