  1. When the Red Sox had their Impossible Dream season in 1967, did fans say "that was great, but it doesn't make up for a decade of sucking"? I don't think so.
  2. 1 yr too late? Are we supposed to be haunted by 2022 forever?
  3. I'm calling slanted verbiage on "labored".
  4. I think I was one who said he shouldn't be. That's why my baseball opinions are only found on places like this.
  5. You're right. Sometimes all you can say is "baseball is a crazy game".
  6. The guy I'm looking forward to seeing is Yoshida.
  7. Kimbrel was in rough shape in the 2018 postseason. But Barnes, Brasier and Kelly were at their best, and Cora's ploy of using starters for 1-inning stints couldn't have worked any better.
  8. I get what you're saying. The thing about blowing late leads the way the 2022 team did is that it really seems to pinpoint closer as a specific weakness.
  9. If we did bring back Eovaldi, Wacha or Hill, it wouldn't really do all that much for our health prognostication.
  10. Well, they do have some skills.
  11. Icarus Bloom he is.
  12. The law of averages might be on our side this year.
  13. These guys have so much baggage, but somebody always wants 'em!
  14. This year is going to be a 3 ring circus.
  15. Makes perfect sense.
  16. Even for work meetings?
  17. Red, this is a very lightly moderated message board, and I think most of us like it that way. That's why there have been no suspensions. We have to try to police ourselves a bit here. Nobody wants you or moon to get suspended or to make big changes in what you say here. We just want to stop the incessant back and forths and the personal stuff. The simple rule is: talk about what the other person said, but don't talk about the other person.
  18. Maybe he over-values pitching prospects and under-values position prospects vs. other evaluators.
  19. Restgate, eek. Looking back on that, it appears that the guys Cora was trying to ease into things at the start of 2019, Sale, Price and Porcello, did indeed have serious health/decline issues, so I'm not sure any approach would have worked.
  20. Bloom and Cora are certainly on the same page when it comes to using the expression " taking care of". They can't get enough of it.
  21. More proof that a great name alone isn't enough.
  22. The Mariners play in a pitcher's park, the Sox play in a hitter's park, so that has an impact on WAR. You'd have to go through pitcher by pitcher to see what's really going on with their numbers. Projections are just for funsies anyway.
