  1. Dombrowski gets this team nowhere without the foundation set by Ben and Theo.
  2. Maybe, but as you know, I hold the under the radar moves in a lot higher regard than the obvious moves that result by way of being the highest bidder.
  3. Fair enough. It's hard to argue what might have happened otherwise when you have the World Series Championship in the bag.
  4. From Red Sox Stats The Red Sox went into last season ranked 6th with 48.0 projected WAR on their roster. After the Eovaldi signing they currently rank 1st with 50.7 projected WAR for next year.
  5. Our rotation looks very good, provided good health. I hope Dave does some dumpster diving for some depth. We need more, IMO. Clay Buchholz anyone?
  6. It's all going to come down to his health, IMO. If he can stay healthy, I think he'll pitch well enough to earn his contract.
  7. Keuchel, yes. Kimbrel, no.
  8. Many people keep saying that Eovaldi earned his contract based on a few games in the postseason. Not true at all. He was solid in 2018, particularly after coming to Boston.
  9. Merloni is almost always on point. We went a year too long on Eovaldi, and the AAV is a tad too high, but that's okay. The Sox are all in for 2019.
  10. Very sad. My heart goes out to their families and friends.
  11. You might be right. Something about him just says to me that he lacks self confidence or self worth.
  12. We have a great team going into the 2019 season. It will be hard to repeat, but I like our chances!
  13. Dave is so predictable. LOL
  14. I am happy that Eovaldi is back with our team.
  15. MLB hitters peak at about 27 or 28 years of age. The decline starts after age 28. At about the age of 32, the decline becomes steep. Look at just about any aging curve for offensive metrics. Now I understand that there are exceptions and that some players are going to continue to play well into their mid 30s. Those are the exceptions though, not the norm. Mookie might be one of the exceptions. Then again, he might not be.
  16. OK, then change my 99 wins to 101 wins.
  17. Correct. Despite what Dombrowski says, he is not going into the season letting Barnes and Brasier battle it out.
  18. Vazquez earned back Cora's favor late in the season and into the playoffs. Vaz is currently Cora's #1 guy behind the plate.
  19. I have always thought of ARod as a guy who is very lonely, or insecure, or lacks self confidence, or something along those lines, despite his talent, fame, and wealth.
  20. I am very happy to have Eovaldi back. I'll leave it at that. But yes, I am thankful that we have Henry as our owner.
  21. These trades will be more likely next offseason.
  22. If you don't think you can keep him or you aren't willing to pay him an outrageous contract, it makes sense to trade him and at least get something in return.
  23. I don't believe for a minute that Mookie will be traded. I just don't think it's as ridiculous an idea as everyone is making it out to be.
  24. Cashman, like Theo, does a very good job when given the autonomy to do so. As a Red Sox fan, I'm really hoping Hal or Levine or someone overrules Cashman.
