    I don't see how batting him 8th and 9th resolves the negative WAR though.
  2. Bellhorn04
    No, they told him they weren't going to trade him, so the no trade didn't come into it. But if they told him he was being traded to the Dodgers, you think he'd say no?
  3. Bellhorn04
    I don't disagree.
  4. Bellhorn04
    I'm not sure they would have brought JBJ back if they knew he was going to OPS .550 and have a negative WAR.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Thanks for the clarification.

    The payroll is $242 million for tax purposes this year. That's the second-highest in team history after 2019. Much of that is "old spending" obviously, but that's how it works when you sign guys to big contracts. They stick around a while.
  7. Bellhorn04
    And Dombrowski issued the contracts to Bogey, JDM and Eovaldi.
  8. Bellhorn04
    Yes, I know all that, and that it has a lot to do with why the payroll has limits. But I have yet to hear any credible explanation for why Henry's other interests are impacting the Red Sox.
  9. Bellhorn04
    Can you explain how all the expiring contracts are on Bloom?
  10. Bellhorn04
    He puts up great numbers for Worcester.
  11. Bellhorn04
    Okay, but all everyone is really bitching about is the spending on players. And that part doesn't take much time.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Devers is kind of the litmus test. I believe they will make a serious offer. If they don't, they will piss off a lot of people. I think 2023 is the year that will define Bloom's career with the Red Sox, one way or the other.
  13. Bellhorn04
    All we know is that Bogey will not be traded. There are rumors that the Mets want JDM and Vazquez.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Thank you.
  15. Bellhorn04
    I think Bloom had nothing to do with the decision. If you want to fault anyone for not making a high enough offer, you have your pick between Henry and Dombrowski.

    I'm not aware of any posters who have called other posters homosexuals, but I could be wrong.
  17. Bellhorn04
    A quick glance indicates they do adjust Batting Runs for Park Factor. https://library.fangraphs.com/war/war-position-players/
  18. Bellhorn04
    Isn't Park Factor reflected in fWAR? Or did I ask that already?
  19. Bellhorn04
    JDavis said I was moon's "butt buddy". Some would categorize that as offensive. Some not, I guess.
  20. Bellhorn04
    And Verdugo was coming off a pretty strong 23 year old season. I remember 700hitter saying we were dreaming if we thought we were going to get Verdugo in the deal.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Story has 23.3 fWAR in 826 games, or 4.23 per 150 games. DeJong has 8.7 fWAR in 564 games, or 2.32 per 150 games. According to FanGraphs, Story is 183% as good.
  22. Bellhorn04
    The problem is you don't put enough invective into your criticisms of Bloom.
  23. Bellhorn04
    And I think even on Talksox, if we took a poll on which individual is most responsible for Mookie being gone, Henry would win decisively.
  24. Bellhorn04
    From what we heard the Padres were the only other team in play. It's possible we could have gotten more talent if the Dodgers didn't take on $45 million of Price's money.
  25. Bellhorn04
    It won't be remembered that way by anyone who understands the situation.
