    You’ve changed your excuse. Nice!
  2. moonslav59
    You never pouted from October to March over the past 4 years? Lmao!
  3. moonslav59
    More lies. I found it telling that you chose the exact time the Sox looked at their best to stop watching. Spin that as you wish but we can see it is what it is.

    To me, this looks like the only real hope for 2024: trade a top 3 prospect and maybe some others for a young pitcher with 3 or more years of control. I’ve suggested several I feel are worth the dice roll, but as was pointed out by the master pouter, none ever come true, so it’s useless being specific about some possible good moves. Keep it simple: trade suspects for great young pitchers and call it a day.

    Giolito has not been good, except for 4 months out of his last 12 and was good for 3 of his previous 6 months. He may bd better than Kluber looked after 2022, but this is the same old same old crap.
  6. moonslav59
    So you pout for 4 years then slam others for pouting now. It’s easy to never be wrong when you never are specific
  7. moonslav59
    I never bailed on watching and rooting for the Sox, like you did when we were on pace for 87 wins.
  8. moonslav59
    You think the sham ended?
  9. moonslav59
    Agreed, and you shouted and pouted through it all.
  10. moonslav59
    It sure looks that way.
  11. moonslav59
    Why is 2/3 of a good season out of his last 6/3 all that special or better than Kluber’s 2022 numbers for 3/3 of that season? Giolito was also not so good for his first 18 starts of 2021
  12. moonslav59
    This spoke the master pouter and shouter.
  13. moonslav59
    The ERod and Gray contracts looked good. It looks like no Monty. I’m not even sure we will be a finalist on Stroman or Imanaga. Giolito is another stab in the dark like Kluber, Richards and Paxton. Sure we might make some trades that bring us good SPing but at the cost of many future hopes. We have budget space- a lot of it, even if we stay $5-6M below the line. We are looking like a repeat of the last 2 off seasons. That is reason for deep concern, frustration or even anger, if some express it that way.

    You conflate suggestions as predictions. No matter how many times I point it out, you persist. Again, nothing specific from you. Just pointing out others, who were specific, times they were wrong. Rinse and repeat.
  15. moonslav59
    If usefulness is determined by getting a suggested trade right, name one thing you suggested we do that we have done? Even in general. How “useful” are your suggestions, then, if none ever come true?
  16. moonslav59
    What he did in the past was hire a GM who valued the farm and spent big on free agents- both things you poo poo, now.
  17. moonslav59
    For once, try giving detailed suggestions on what we should do. Name players and return packages. Name inexpensive FAs you’d sign this winter. Speaking in generalities is easy. How about a detailed plan? Just once.
  18. moonslav59
    You want him replaced. You are not upset. Ok.
  19. moonslav59
    Indeed. It’s also pretty good at pointing out Dalbec and Mata for Cease won’t work. It exposes the absurd trades suggested by some. It’s easy to say we should trade for young pitchers, then beat your chest on how you were right, but giving no suggested offers is more lame than blaming others for actually trying to suggest what might be possible.
  20. moonslav59
    Why does the fact that suggested trades on BTV don’t happen mean it’s useless? Is that what it’s meant for?
  21. moonslav59
    Speculating does not have to be about having fun. We look for possible ways to improve the team. We opine on paying certain amounts for FAs we think we might have signed or not, if the choice was up to us. I’m not sure why it seems to bother anyone who does not do it.
  22. moonslav59
    Ummm, I said I agreed Duran’s value was not enough to get a really good pitcher by himself. Also, I think only one poster felt Yamo was coming here.
  23. moonslav59
    Mata might have the highest chance of a DFA out of all those without options or Rule 5 restrictions. All the guys we added have options, even Campbell & Chrissell. I see several DFA options better than any of these guys, except Criswell. I’m not saying any of these guys were great additions. I expected way better. I do think 4 of the 5 are better than our bottom 4 pitchers on the 40, now.
  24. moonslav59
    I’d give $100M/5 but JH won’t.
  25. moonslav59
    But you are against almost ever big FA signing in MLB, then seem upset JH won’t spend.
