  1. “He’s one of the greatest players to ever wear our uniform,’’ new Red Sox GM Chaim Bloom softly said when cornered on a back practice field, “and that makes it really difficult to do something like this. “We feel that. We know our fans feel that. We know it hurts. We know it’s going to hurt for awhile.’’ “Even though I didn’t get a chance to know him,’’ said Bloom, who was hired in November to replace David Dombrowski, “I know how it feels to be that connected to a player. To feel that connected to a great player, and how difficult it is to see that player leave the organization, I fully get all that. … “We just felt at the end of the day our jobs are to do what’s best for the Red Sox, not just for today, but also down the road. We have that duty to our fans to make sure we’re taking care of the long view of the organization as well. “So, as tough as it was, we felt this move accomplished that.’’
  2. The two sides agreed to defer that payment for 10 years, but with an 8% annual interest rate. So by the time Bonilla started receiving those payments, he was owed $29.8 million, which was split into annual payments of $1,193,248.20 over 25 years. Of course, there have been similarly outrageous deals over the years. The Washington Nationals have kind of made deferments their thing — they will pay Stephen Strasburg $10 million each year from 2024-30 and Max Scherzer $15 million each year from 2022-28.
  3. Giancarlos 13 year contract but that one is upside down. low money the first few years then ramps up quick to $32MM per season for the middle years.
  4. "i could be wong, i could be wright" John Lydon/Public Image Ltd.
  5. for players weekend sale should roll with covid 19 on his back...
  6. da fuq? who are you and what did you do with MVP?
  7. the only way to do that once DD did all those DD things was to trade him. we lose him for 1 year but gain him back for the next decade. this is the way
  8. thanks Harmony....i mean MVP.
  9. hahahaha. #fatchavis
  10. i am of the feeling we should go the complete opposite. we should market the hell out of jeter and do all we can for the kid to have an awesome career. in 10 years when someone says "jeter" the first person i want them to think of is Downs in a Red Sox cap. derek will become an afterthought......r2spect.
  11. in a perfect world X-bo would give jeter #2
  12. "every team make the postseason!"
  13. "Homeruns make people ignore cheating. Quick, contact rawlings and tell them we need more Manfred Missiles ASAP!"
  14. canadians are nice. also for those whining/bitching about verdugo and the sexual assault....i'm pretty sure he let the president down by not grabbing her by the pussy......
  15. why do we continue to trade for INJURED PLAYERS???!!!! sad!
  16. i would be very much OK with this approach.
  17. FTR - i am NOT in favor of dumping JBj. or trading him. but i do believe that is what Bloom will do. Me? i have JBj in CF for the next 4 years...
  18. not me. i think we DFA him. i think i said that soon after we picked up his ARB year. we can dump him in ST and only be on the hook for a small portion of the $11MM.
  19. lol. pretty good hitch
  20. dude, why are you always so mad? as for verdugo - i do not believe anyone is stating that he participated in raping this girl. not even the girl is stating that. as for video taping the girls fighting....who wouldn't?
  21. awesome stuff Bell. oh Jacksonianmarch....we have a "mea culpa" warming up for you..........................
  22. its gonna be a long season for the astros... https://sports.yahoo.com/marwin-gonzalez-becomes-first-astros-hitter-to-apologize-for-cheating-i-feel-regret-181848538.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAABjEqefr4BXkA1hDphG80zErbJPkx9YPUDgR0Nc5mBPqAhYN9CrdIcJsT4JMXKXfPmaZt5WgueRLV88L21h1JCKu4oEdJ8E78gY0Ij5vtqCB-lwQ0R0LHbbzJAxaRq16-qqKUNUmoQ1R59izPjGBtIP4Vz02-4dFX8SVaVJBOrcO Marwin Gonzalez, who was with the Astros in 2017 but now plays for the Minnesota Twins, was the first one up. He apologized Tuesday, expressing remorse and regret, and becoming the first 2017 Astros hitter to do so. Gonzalez also admitted to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale that it’s impossible to know if Houston would have won the World Series without stealing signs.
  23. its the same reason some of us will never understand why pedroia threw his teammates under the bus in the machado incident.
