    4 years is arbitrary unless we're talking about JH's patience period with CBOs, which is now pretty close to an established fact!

    Let's not over-react to our own guesses. 🙂
  3. Bellhorn04
    Yes, a bit too Early to say. 😉

    It was a historic blunder, and of course eerily reminiscent of what happened in the previous century at almost exactly the same time.

    His AAV is 29 million. Maybe no Story signing, maybe no Yoshida signing. Anyway it's all just speculation. The damage is huge and there's no way around it. The Dodgers have annihilated us since the trade.

    We'll never know how he would have felt about the budgets. Can't really see him being a "malcontent".

    I have seen nothing that indicates Betts wanted to leave.

    On Talksox you can predict what you like and be consistently wrong with no consequences! 😀

    Welcome Back Kutter.

    Baseball offseasons seem to have become excruciatingly slow-paced, especially compared to other sports. I'm glad I was kind of checked out of it for a month or two. I didn't miss much in the way of action. Breslow seems to have done a workmanlike job with the trades. It'll be disappointing if they don't sign Bregman or make some sort of comparable acquisition.

    It doesn't get much attention from baseball writers, either. Everyone is into the tax numbers now. The team accountants are probably the people most interested in cash flow numbers.

    Bailey seems to be a pretty good pitching coach overall. He gets one more shot to improve Hicks and the DFA would be lurking behind that.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Now we have 3 accountants here. 😉

    Just look at how last season ended - Anthony on the IL and Abreu just coming off it. We would have been in rough shape without Duran.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Do we have to keep bringing up those terrible signings of yesteryear? 😉
  16. Bellhorn04
    Yes please, get it done. Would make me feel much better about the offseason and the commitment from ownership.
  17. Bellhorn04
    And Duran, Rafaela and Abreu combined for 1 hit. It was a feeble offensive effort in general.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Maybe. Might depend on syntax. It was just a dumb joke.
  19. Bellhorn04
    He's a #2 over his career...only concern is he's getting on a little. Of course what we call a #2 some guys call a #3 or even a 4...expectations tend to exceed reality.

    Yeah, I think Kluber was the worst one-year contract in Red Sox history. But a lot of that was Bloom having no Plan B for Kluber flaming out like he did. Just bad work by Bloom all around. Of course he probably had a tight budget so some of it is on Henry too!
  21. Bellhorn04
    Or is it prime peak? 😉

    From Peter Gent's North Dallas Forty: "I love Texas, but she drives her people crazy. I've wondered whether it's the heat, or the money, or maybe both."

    Last year's deal with Bregman wasn't really a one-year deal. It was one of those new-fangled "creative" deals that guaranteed him 3 years and $120 million but allowed him to split after one. It was much better than a one-year deal from his perspective.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I have hopes for Breslow, I'll leave it at that. I think I'm more disillusioned with ownership than anything. It's not like Henry isn't spending at all, but it's different than it was before. #22 in payroll as a % of revenue is pretty darn low. They're not capitalizing on their financial might. And the results are what they are, under Bloom and Breslow they've made the playoffs twice in 6 years. Or maybe I'm spoiled by 2004-2018.

    Resign/re-sign - one of the weirdest words in the English language.
