  1. The next 5 weeks will decide the buy or sell question.
  2. Something about 1B defense with this team. Everyone ends up worse than expected.
  3. I said 5-10 teams those seasons. It might be 5 not10.
  4. It’s too speculative, at this point,especially since he drafted almost all HS kids. I gave him the same grade for MLB and overall. He did add young talent Whitlock, Wink, Wong and young vets like Dugo, Ref and Schreiber.
  5. I think a lot comes down to where one felt the Sox were after 2019 and then the Betts/Price trade, and then what was expected and how quickly.
  6. This team is all teases and let downs. I’m still hopeful we can find a long enough groove to ride to the playoffs, but my optimism is lessening. I still feel better about this team than 22’s, but even that is slipping.
  7. We are no longer spending like a “small market team.”
  8. No, I said since the Stiry signing and counting the Devers extension, we are showing signs is repeating what JH has done several times, already. We spent a ton from Story to Devers but lost a lot of salary and prior production, too.
  9. Finally, you said it. Lol! Look, I have agreed his percentage spent on starters was too low, he should have blown Eflin away with a multi year offer. In hindsight, it does look like the O and pen did need spending, too, as well as the D. You think he had enough to fill all our needs? The first 2.5 years of his time here, the answer should be obvious. The last year, not so much, but still….
  10. He’s got a hundred to spend and needs 200 in groceries.
  11. Just do t say he “hates” anyone.
  12. As many as the budget set by JH allows, IMO. If you need to add a ton of depth, there is not many other options on a fixed budget.
  13. Take away 2021 and the growth is steady. We had a lot of depth- just not 5 SSs and 10 SPers.
  14. Drafting by positional need is insane.
  15. Actually, 4.51 in 31 starts in 2021 and 4.56 in 33 starts in2022 is better than over 20 teams 4th starter, 15 teams 3rd starter and maybe 5-10 teams number 2’s those seasons.
  16. Nice memory, dude! How about last year? 3.23 ERA after first 15 games. 3.68 after 17. 3.98 after 25. That’s #2 or #3 numbers. Pretty close in 2021: 3.78 after 12 4.00 after 15 4.20 after 23 That’s #3 to solid#4 numbers. Short memory!
  17. If he’s the best player, he better do it!
  18. He’s not a flash in the pan. The guy led the league in rbis not long ago
  19. 8 rbis in 10 games. Has any other Sox player done better?
  20. We may see Duran PH or PR and then replace Kike once a righty comes in.
  21. I thought you had low expectations.
  22. He’s had some very long stretches of pitching like a 2 or 3 slot starter. I’m talking 15-20 games long.
  23. It’s seems to be all about yesterday and today, only.
