  1. Even the Dodgers have limits. They let Seager go, they let Jansen go.
  2. It might be 3 or 4 if we factor in our other right fielders. 3 or 4 is a lot, really.
  3. Definitely in your top 5 sarcastic remarks about 2022.
  4. Based on WAR, this trade has cost us 2 or 3 wins so far.
  5. The real "problem" as far as getting big talent back was that we were dumping $72 million of payroll (Betts $27/Price $45).
  6. Yeah, that was sheer brilliance on Cashman's part.
  7. Actually 2 full years of control and 3 playoff seasons for Soto.
  8. We've been through all this. Maybe Bloom did ask for more and the Dodgers drew the line. None of us were in on the conversations.
  9. Here we go again. Henry can spend as much as he wants, so why doesn't he, right?
  10. It's more accurate to say he was able to dump half of it. It's called cutting losses. If we didn't do it we'd be even more screwed.
  11. I'm not opposed to that, but I'm more concerned about keeping Devers.
  12. No it isn't, not when we're evaluating Bloom's performance. Price's dead money was a hindrance to spending.
  13. I can't totally let Bloom off the hook for 2022. He's responsible for Bradley, Cordero, Diekman, Robles etc. He could have done some things better. He has also made some good moves and is definitely improving the farm. And there's going to be a lot of cash freed up. So it'll be an interesting offseason, I think
  14. Kind of leaving out that it was Dombrowski's contract, and Price was virtually toast.
  15. Ha ha...this from a guy who can't even spell "too". Priceless indeed.
  16. I would allocate the blame pie for 2022 something like this: Lingering payroll issues 1/3 Bloom's failed moves (Bradley trade, Diekman signing etc.) 1/3 Injuries 1/3
  17. Yes, and I was a Red Sox fan for 35 years before I saw them win it all. And it was very painful at times. I'm just saying that given my preference, it's not something I would go through. I didn't express it very well.
  18. A lot of that is schedule-related. We had an excellent stretch against weaker teams.
  19. Personally I wouldn't want to be a fan of any team that's never won a title.
  20. It's not a job with long-term security, unless maybe you're Brian Cashman. Dombrowski is with his fifth team now.
  21. Mazza hasn't been as good.
  22. Actually, I'd say the main reason you're a troll is your nonstop personal insults. Look at that one post, you called me bellhop and others clowns. You have your own special brand of obnoxiousness.
  23. Of course you can't. But is that the real point you're trying to make?
  24. Oh relax. Just having some fun.
  25. In most businesses you don't give employees guaranteed contracts for up to 14 years and hundreds of millions that you may have to pay even if they do a lousy job or get hurt and can't work most of the time. The idea that major league baseball is like any other business is just comical.
