7/23 Jays @ Fenway, game time 4:10
Bellhorn04 replied to Maxbialystock's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
This has one been one brutal stretch all right. It's almost like the baseball Gods are sending signals to the Sox FO that a fire sale is the way to go. -

Have to disagree with the principle. Nobody had more media pissed off against him than Ted Williams, and I think there have been a few other Red Sox stars the media didn't like. Not that Duran is anywhere near a star at this point. -

No way this is more depressing than the most depressing week in 1978. -
Where's the King Out for the Season thread? Can't see it.

I read what he said, I didn't see anything about "optics benefit". He said he could see Verdugo was going to beat him to the ball. He did say he would take one or two steps next time, but I don't think he meant he would do it just for show. Let's try to be a little fair here. -
You'll get MADCRICKETS on that one too.
-
Only by you, over and over and over...
-
And Holmes is mediocre, the way you slice it.
-
How many titles does your team have in the last 20 years? MADSTORK = MADCRICKETS on that one!
-
The bottom line is that this ownership has delivered 4 championships. And you're still an idiot.
-
But he was talking about professionalism, not production.
-
The 28 runs were, not surprisingly, the most ever given up by a Red Sox team. At least we didn't get to the all time MLB record of 30. The Jays were actually on pace for 45 runs after the 5th inning.
-
Frighteningly enough, those single points are also called "rouges".
-
Look, Xander signed a 6 year contract with an opt out after Year 3. He's a big boy, he knew the opt out could make him a lot more money. He didn't put that in the contract out of the kindness of his heart. It has worked out well for him. No need to break out the crying towels.
-
Yes, he's been pitching terribly the last few games.
-
True, it's kind of a relief!
-
Relievers generally have lower ERA's. Have to explain everything, I guess. Anyway, as far as you're concerned, Holmes is obviously a blind squirrel.
-
Clay Holmes has a 4.01 career ERA, it was 5.57 with the Pirates. Does he suck too?
-
I have no real idea what that means.
-
I know what you're saying.
-
I don't give a s*** what he did with the Phillies. With the Red Sox he's been a solid back end starter, and he's cheap.
-
He was great for 11 games from May 7 to June 29, 74 innings, 1.95 ERA. Just saying "he sucks" is stupid.
-
Well, he did shut you up for a while at least.
-
Still speculation. He made acquisitions that helped the team-Pivetta, Whitlock, Kike, Renfroe etc. (not to mention Cora). Is the suggestion that he didn't actually want these guys to succeed? I think that's rubbish.
-
It's pure unfounded speculation on your part that Bloom wanted to tear down in 2021 rather than compete.
