    He missed 3 years. "Almost 4 years" is fudging it.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Well, it's the Red Sox media that really make a big deal out of this to start with. For obvious reasons - DD pulling a "gotcha" on the Sox is juicy material for those guys.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Sure, but I doubt that he didn't also consider the possibility that Song would get permission to play this year...
  4. Bellhorn04
    It was unknown if he'd be eligible to play. It wasn't known that he wouldn't be. Important distinction IMO. As actual events would suggest.
  5. Bellhorn04
    As I recall, Ned and Monty were replaced by Dick Stockton and (gulp) The Hawk.
  6. Bellhorn04
    No one knows if he'll stick, would be a more accurate way to put it, I think. I think the most rational position is to simply shrug and say "I have no effing idea."
  7. Bellhorn04
    I thought the question is which teams would protect him, not which would select him. You're saying no teams would protect him, even if they had no other pitching prospects.
  8. Bellhorn04
    What Dombrowski did is called "thinking outside the box", IMHO. There's a reason it's called that.
  9. Bellhorn04
    Even a really s***** team with no pitching prospects?
  10. Bellhorn04
    No, there's certainly no data to support protecting Song. A 3 year absence sweeps data out the window.
  11. Bellhorn04
    When I first started listening to Sox games on the radio in the late Sixties, the play-by-play man was Ken Coleman.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Mercy!

    Grady's comments after getting fired by the Sox were ultra-weird. Something about how he was going to become another ghost for the team.
  14. Bellhorn04
    It's a fair point about recency bias. But maybe teams are doing more homework on this now, too.
  15. Bellhorn04
    We've been working Ward into the conversation.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, I just did a quick comparison between Sox home tickets and Cubs home tickets, and the Cubs prices look about 40% higher. Who says John Henry is a money-grubber?
  17. Bellhorn04
    Brutal.
  18. Bellhorn04
    I have to amend - the article by Peter Abraham said DD was "smiling widely".
  19. Bellhorn04
    Aroldis Chapman "slipped and fell" at home, split his lip and cracked a tooth.
  20. Bellhorn04
    What isn't?
  21. Bellhorn04
    Personally I don't have that many regrets about 2003 any more. 2003 motivated the Sox to get Foulke and Schilling and Francona. And Pedro pitched a beauty in Game 3 of the 2004 WS. For me it was all good after that.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Right - this is the essence of it right here. This plus the fact that Theo reportedly met with Grady before the game and basically told him he had to get Pedro out of there no matter what after 105 pitches. Everybody thought Pedro was out of the game, everybody except Grady...
  23. Bellhorn04
    In the Globe it says that Kluber had the option of not going to this game but he wanted to, so there's one little bright spot.
  24. Bellhorn04
    The story is that DD laughed when Song's name was announced at the draft.
  25. Bellhorn04
    It's not.
