  1. Maxbialystock enumerated the possible baseball reasons for Vaz being traded, mostly defensive ones. It certainly has nothing to do with his hitting.
  2. Denny, you've been tearing a strip off Bloom supporters for quite a while now, and even made up a joke name for them as a group. So your "let's stick to baseball" statement seems a little hollow. As for Old Red, I think he's only here for pissing matches, so I finally put him on Ignore.
  3. You say let's stick to baseball but you keep taking shots at other posters - Bloom supporters, quitters etc.
  4. Sounds a bit wacky.
  5. Personally I'm happy they haven't given up on 2022. I get what others are saying about not adding a reliever, though I imagine the prices were high.
  6. But somewhat contradicted by the one you said "Stop" to.
  7. I think Cora said very early on that it would be a platoon in right. Cora definitely likes his platoons, for better or worse.
  8. I don't think Bloom literally forced him, but I expect he was involved in conversations about the outfield configuration and how to use Arroyo, and he is the guy who actually put the personnel in place.
  9. Yes, that's the scuttlebutt.
  10. Neither Benintendi or Renfroe are big talents, so it's a weird statement. Plus we got Winckowski for Beni, who is a free agent after this year.
  11. RIP Mr. Russell. What a legendary figure in sports.
  12. RIP Vin. The best.
  13. Taillon with another crap start. Beni off to a slow start in pinstripes.
  14. You calling anyone a whiner is just funny.
  15. You're just a total pessimist. Fine.
  16. Hosmer has 3 years and $39 million left. Hard to say.
  17. And why are you totally dismissing the 2021 postseason and the acquisitions Bloom made to help the team get there?
  18. 2022 was a tough year because of all the expiring deadlines. Then we had an incredible string of injuries. Things like the Bradley trade, and the bullpen etc., I don't argue about. Some things just haven't worked. I think so far Bloom's mistakes have been short-term ones, and he's sticking to the plan of improving the future by stocking the farm and not signing long-term deals outside of Story and Whitlock.
  19. Any explanation I have to offer you'll just call an excuse, so what's the point? Seems like Bloom haters aren't actually interested in discussion any more. If you don't agree with them, they get abusive.
  20. Let's wait till we know for sure if there's more before anyone tries to answer that.
  21. Jock supporters, beautiful. Sure, let's just turn this into a political thing, and have the pro-Bloom and anti-Bloom camps heap abuse on each other. That'll be fun, huh? Let's turn Talksox into Sawxheads, another lightly moderated Red Sox board that turned incredibly ugly before dying.
  22. Let's be reasonable, they made it to the ALCS in his second season.
  23. And it's one guy making all the jokes.
  24. One would think Vaz had some inklings about being traded. It was rumored for a while, and they added Hernandez to the roster just in case, didn't they?
