    Price took one for the team. Cora needed to get the BP back in alignment.

    Back to back to back to back. Followed by back to back.

    Amen brother NS. Especially if it doesn't appear we can work out an extension, which Mookie seems unwilling to do. Trade him and get a good haul for him. There would still be the possibility of re-signing him as a free agent.
  4. Kimmi
    If it appears that the Sox will be unable to come to terms with Mookie, then absolutely yes we should consider trading him. I am actually of the belief that we should consider trading him even if it does look like an extension can be worked out.

    Interesting tweet from Speier: Before Bogaerts extension, Red Sox had been trying to preserve flexibility, eyeing possibility of going under the $208M luxury tax threshold in 2020. With Bogaerts, doing so would be hard barring a Martinez free agent departure or trade of arb-eligible player(s) To date, every deal they’ve struck has also been done with an eye towards keeping flexibility to try to sign Betts long-term. They still have that, but if not resetting lux tax rates in 2020, a deal for Betts is more expensive for them. Reading what Dombrowski had to say today, it sounds like they really weren't expecting Bogaerts to sign an extension, and financially speaking, weren't planning on it. The ability to extend Bogaerts has somewhat changed their 'reset' plans. Without a reset, Betts is going to be even more expensive than the mega contract already will be.

    Win!

    Sale will be the stopper tonight. The rest of the rotation will follow his lead, like they unfortunately did the first time through.
  8. Kimmi
    Yup. We have the other teams right where we want them.
  9. Kimmi
    Yeah, I found that interesting. Certainly Cora would not change his mind after suck a short sample.
  10. Kimmi
    I have them both on my fantasy team. Which is the precise reason why I won't have any Red Sox players on my team.

    What those billionaires could be doing with all the money they're making is try charging the fans less money in ticket prices and build a freaking farm system.

    Unfortunately, I have to side with you on this one Babe. What the Sox are doing is no different than what the Yankees were doing. The Sox and Sox fans have become what we always hated about the Yankees and the Yankees fans. No, I'm not going to give back any of the championships that we win with a enormous payroll, but I am very much against building a team that way.
  13. Kimmi
    Personally, I don't like it one bit.
  14. Kimmi
    It appears that this could be the case, which I never would have believed would happen. Good for Red Sox fans.
  15. Kimmi
    Another fun fact: The Red Sox, Yankees, and Astros are currently a combined 3-8 with a -11 run differential. Go baseball!
  16. Kimmi
    Cora has taken quite a bit of heat over this, and my understanding is that he is rather defensive about it. Good for him. Stick to your guns, Cora.
  17. Kimmi
    Fun fact from Speier: Red Sox starters: 15 innings, 13.20 ERA; Red Sox bullpen: 18 innings, 2.50 ERA
  18. Kimmi
    Yankees fans post on Sox boards to hang out with cool, fun people. There aren't any on the Yankees forums.
  19. Kimmi
    The Red Sox will have a deep playoff run. The Mariners, not so much.
  20. Kimmi
    Congrats to you and your Mariners Harmony. They outplayed the Sox big time.
  21. Kimmi
    I will sleep well, knowing that I will wake up to a Red Sox victory. Go Sox!!!
  22. Kimmi
    Amen brother. Especially when I have to get up at 5 a.m.
  23. Kimmi
    At least we didn't lost to the Os at home.
  24. Kimmi

    Studies show that you put your best 3 hitters in the 1, 2, and 4 spots, with the OBP guys in the #1 and #2 holes, and the SLG guy in the #4 hole. That said, who goes where doesn't make enough of a difference to worry about. That being the case, Beni and Betts should be placed where they feel most comfortable. If it turns out that Beni does not perform well leading off, and I'm not saying that that is or will be the case, then Cora should put him back to batting second.
