  1. Needed a crooked number, there!
  2. Time for the ex-Dodger to make 'em pay.
  3. We need to strike back, quickly and forcefully!
  4. These walks of 8th and or 9th batters kills us.
  5. Still. Devers has a great record when swinging on 3-0 counts.
  6. How many times has Devers swung on an o-3 count? NEVER! On 3-0 counts, yes, and many for HRs. His OPS when swinging on 3-0? 2.170 In the 12 times he swung, he's got 5 hits, including 3 HRs.
  7. Absolutely, no! It's so obvious. Like you profile photo, your hair must be in your eyes not to see what is clear.
  8. I don't blame you. I think I suggested offering Mookie more than anyone I know ($400M/14,) so I totally agree. It was a major blunder by JH & Co. I will never forgive him for that, but the 4 rings prevent me from calling for his replacement or calling him a bum. If we don't win another ing for a while or get highly competitive, soon, my mind may change.
  9. Maybe "storytime" can actually be stories we like.
  10. Now, I fully expect Masa and Casas to rake, tonight and shut me the EFFF up!
  11. Agree, and then to top it off, he sometimes does it vs the wrong handed pitcher.
  12. The fact that it wasn't just Betts, but also half Price, no Porcello and no replacing their salaries for years, tells it all. It wasn't, "We can do better with the $45M" (Betts and 1/2 Price,) it was "We ain't spending big for a while."
  13. Of course, and DD saw the writing on the wall after '18. No more propsect tardes were made. No more big spending. No deadline trades in 2019. Bloom deserves a lot of blame for a bunch of bad choices, but yes, this was not his choice.
  14. I'd prefer sitting the colder one.
  15. Is it impossible to believe JH and Co, just decided not to spend what it would have taken plus Hal Price? For whatever reasons they had, this seems like the choice they made, and I’m certain it was not Bloom making the choice.
  16. It was also brought up by someone else that sitting Abreu v the lefty on Saturday seemed like the probable plan. "Everyone plays" should involve playing the guy who has hardly played, at all- the hottest one-- ABREU!!! This is a major head-scratcher. Masas better do well!
  17. Bloom’s feeling was that the Red Sox didn’t have enough of a foundation in the farm system to afford a huge contract for Betts and to build a championship team around him during his remaining prime years. When the Red Sox extended Devers with a 10-year, $313.5 million contract that will kick in starting in ’24, Bloom expressed that the organizational foundation had improved enough to make such a financial commitment. -Ian Browne (MLB.com)
  18. You seriously think this was Bloom's idea to "make a mark?"
  19. I'm sure Cora has some reason, but I'm sure I would not agree.
  20. Seems like they could have put Kluber on the 60, long ago, but for what? To keep Bleier around a bit longer?
  21. 1. Dugo 2. Devers 3. Turner 4. Yoshida 5. Duvall 6. Casas 7. Story 8. McGuire 9. Reyes SP: Crawford
  22. Wacha? Strahm? Do half year players like Schwarber count?
  23. The thing is, he was a good GM at acquiring young talent until he wasn't. The Sox got cheap after 1978.
