  1. The Red Sox are in. Book it.
  2. I am hopeful that Bloom will have this team contending next year. It will take longer than that to get the farm back to where it was, but with the right acquisitions, we can contend. We still have a strong core of young players.
  3. Maybe it's being in the presence of the Red Sox that makes him pitch so great. We can only hope.
  4. LOL Good stuff.
  5. Without a doubt.
  6. Yankees Game 1 *
  7. JBJ will be mic'd up for tonight's game.
  8. Woot! But what did you just call me?
  9. We need Cole to stink. Not just tonight, but always.
  10. LOL I just saw Dr. Fauci's first pitch. Pretty bad.
  11. But now with the expanded playoffs, it changes the whole picture of who might be buyers and who might be sellers. It will be harder to trade players before the deadline.
  12. No, we'll likely never know for sure. I'm thinking that the circumstances are so different today than they were then that the answer is no. I'm thinking that if there were no pandemic, Mookie might not have signed that deal with the Dodgers, at least not without first testing the market.
  13. This is how happy I am to have baseball back. That home run by Stanton didn't even tick me off that much. Only a little.
  14. Your pal Brian Johnson didn't make it.
  15. We hope to have a good enough line up that it doesn't matter who bats where in the top 5. (Not that it matters a whole lot to begin with.)
  16. Let's go! Baseball! Woohoo!
  17. He signed an extension with the Sox before free agency and was not all about getting the most money that he possibly could.
  18. It's what I root for every postseason. I can breathe easier once the Yankees are eliminated. LOL Baseball starts in less than 12 hours!!!
  19. I feel good about our line up. Really good actually, even without Mookie. Hopefully our pitching will pleasantly surprise us.
  20. Do you think Chris Sale felt like he had security when he signed his extension with the White Sox? Do you think Xander feels like he has security after signing his extension? Mookie already had financial security before the deal with the Dodgers. It's not about security. It's about ego. The Sox are willing to lock up their stars, but it takes two to tango. Mookie was not willing to dance. I will take a shorter term deal with a higher AAV for 2nd tier type players all day long over a monster contract for a mega star. Again, that's based on the premise that it all starts with a strong farm.
  21. LOL You sound a lot like me. The kind of stuff that keeps me up at night...
  22. Xander Bogaerts, I love you. That is all.
  23. Hitch! Good post. It did sound like if the Sox offered him the same contract, he would not have accepted. He also said that he was not concerned about this offseason's potentially depressed market at all, which I'm not buying. I am still in shock that the Dodgers would offer that during these uncertain economic times.
  24. Dang Moon. You need to get a grip. LOL
  25. Of course the Sox can afford it. That doesn't mean they should do it. The biggest thing with Mookie's contract is the number of years. Absolutely absurd. I read that a $300 million contract to Mookie would actually cost the Sox $500 million when the luxury tax penalty is factor in.
