  1. 100% Agree, and it wasn't Bloom who decided.
  2. Let's see after this 10 game "easier" stretch.
  3. All he needed was a manager who doesn't treat him like his son!
  4. No. I was curious about the timeline. I wanted us to offer him the world to stay. I hated trading him. I think, once we decided to trade him, with one year left, then added half-Price to the demand, we did okay on the return. Istill wish we kept Betts.
  5. I can see a chance rafaela shocks us all and immediately hits MLB pitchers well. He's one of those guys that you throw away all the reports. Just my take.
  6. The trade suggestion in question was made over a year ago.
  7. In your mind, maybe.
  8. How long was it from the time he refused the Sox maga offer and the trade?
  9. They want to think if they can snow the fans, they will keep buying tickets and NESN subscriptions. It's obvious why they lie. I'd be okay, if they just told the truth and went all in on a 5 year plan. Instead, they play it halfway and get nothing: now wins now, no fans support for the BS and an extended future that could have been much better.
  10. Huh? I've said 2023 should be his "make or break" or "legacy year". Later, I said I don't think JH shares that view. Please try to get my position right. I think he made some good deals under the circumstances handed to him. More bad than good. I think his number 1 priority is to build the farm, and it's impossible to grade him on that, this soon. I wanted us to trade prospects for 2 SP'er not One. Why would I be okay with today's performance?
  11. What if those guys told him to trade Bello? LOL
  12. That would also include: Duvall (after this year) After next year: Pivetta Urias
  13. He did make a few comments that made it sound like he wanted help and that October should be the main priority. I don't think he meant October 2025.
  14. It sure looks like they felt this way. They should have "sold," if they felt that way. This whole trying to con the fans thing never works and makes the longer term outlook worse than it could have been.
  15. DD is untouchable. You should know that by now.
  16. Yes, them all sucking has nothing to do with the losing. Can we stop coddling the players for not doing what many little leaguers know what to do? That being said, it should piss fans off that so little was done at the deadline. It's one thing to put the long term future of the team as the number one priority, but we could have gotten someone like Flaherty without giving up any very promising prospects. I'm a big fan of planning for long term success, but for 4 years (deadline 2019 to deadline 2023) the best prospect we parted with was Aldo Ramirez (for Schwarber.) That pretty much tells it all. Forget the lies Sox brass tells us, this was always a 5 year plan (or more.)
  17. While the big club cobbled together a pen game, today, Sale went 4.1 with Woo: 0 ER 3 H 0 BB 7 K While the big club was floundering at the plate vs TOR, Trevor Story, the guy Cora said would be called up v TOR, homered for Woo while going 2-3. He also doubled and walked twice. RHernandez homered, again (14th). His OPS is now up to .837. Dalbec hit his 27th (.996 OPS.) Rafaela 3-5 POR won 11-2 Coffey: 6IP, 4H, 2ER, 3BB, 7K Rosier is elbowing his way into the conversation (3-5 w HR) Hickey 2-3 w BB Jordan 2-5 w HR GRE is up 8-6 in the 8th by scoring 7 in the 7th. Paulino homered (2-4) SAL lost 8-5 Dean last two-thirds Jh Garcia 2-4 (the other J Garcia) w 2B Romero 1-5 w 2B Asigen 2-3 w BB & 2B
  18. Don't tell me what I feel. Both represented losing hope, to me. It's not a comp of the team talent levels. You and the majority of Sox Nation probably feel otherwise. Enjoy your gloating and celebration of losing.
  19. The woodwork is leaking.
  20. Nothing was as bad as the sweep by the Yanks in SEP 1978, but I can't help but have similar feeling.
  21. Players waive their no trade clauses, very often. Saying "no way" is not accurate.
  22. Maybe the reason nobody offered what Bloom wanted for Dugo was because the other GMs are hip to his schtick.
  23. Yes, "that" extension.
