    Which raises a question: is there any such thing as a two games for one admission doubleheader any more?
  2. Bellhorn04
    If it comes to it I think they will. I'm feeling pretty Polly on Breslow these days.
  3. Bellhorn04
    My main beef there was about the lopsided allocation of resources. But the other beef is that I don't think Bloom realized that Yoshida was only suited to be a DH. That has turned out to be a grievous miscalculation. We all have our guesses about why Bloom was let go. You think it was mostly the deadline indecision/inactivity. I tend to think the Yoshida signing also played a part in it.

    Since 2/3 of his ABs were at DH in 2023, I don't see it as unfair to refer to him as a DH. Yoshida should have been the DH, but Bloom had him miscast as an outfielder.
  5. Bellhorn04
    I would argue that talent-wise, the 1978 team was the best Red Sox team I ever saw.

    It's great that we're back to .500. But after Crochet the rotation is looking a bit shaky. It's pretty important that guys like Houck and/or Buehler/Fitts/Bello/Giolito contribute. You're not going to win a lot of games 13-9.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Nice start, lads.
  8. Bellhorn04
    Story Land is not closed.
  9. Bellhorn04
    And in your math world, Story has already played 4 seasons for the Red Sox even though there are 155 games left.
  10. Bellhorn04
    The thing I can't forgive Bloom for was spending a ton of money on 2 DHs, Yoshida and Turner, while only spending $10 million on the rotation. The fact that Kluber turned out to be totally cooked was the icing on that cake.
  11. Bellhorn04
    Except Ellsbury's contract was 7 years and Story's 4th year just started. Aside from that, great math work.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Nope, nothing can make Ellsbury's contract look like a bargain.
  13. Bellhorn04
    $365 million was still a lot of money. It was the second-largest total contract after Trout's.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Not really.
  15. Bellhorn04
    I'm the guy who thinks Bregman isn't opting out. I think he likes playing for Alex Cora and he has to like the direction the Red Sox are moving in.
  16. Bellhorn04
    No wonder, when they play just about every damn day and you never really have a clue what's going to happen next.
  17. Bellhorn04
    From what I've read Breslow consulted a lot with Theo during the Bregman negotiations. Nice to know that Theo is in fact involved again.
  18. Bellhorn04
    I'm not giving up on Story as long as his defense is good. We want a good defensive infield, don't we?
  19. Bellhorn04
    I can honestly say I've had enough of talking about Bloom. The bottom line was back to back 78-84 seasons. Breslow is starting to look really good to me. Following up the Crochet trade with an extension that looks exactly right. Locking up Campbell for very reasonable money. Fixing the infield defense.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Mookie is the classic case of betting on himself IMHO. He turned down two earlier offers as well. Don't forget that by doing this, he also took the risk that he might get injured or otherwise see his value go down and might end up losing most or all of it.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Man, Campbell might earn his $60 million in 2 seasons!
  22. Bellhorn04
    Houck's decline in strikeout rate seems like a real concern.
  23. Bellhorn04
    For one day, anyway.
  24. Bellhorn04
    16 Ks for the Yanks last night. 30 in the last 2 games.
  25. Bellhorn04
    We all blame them for something. 🙂
