  1. The point was always it was a good free agent contract not a trade for contract. As the years went on it became a good contract, as in under top FA contract money.
  2. Between last year’s trade deadline and the start of 2021, Bloom has added a lot of good players at mostly low or not extreme prices. Sure, we can highlight the Andriese & Santana deals or complain that Kike is 40-50 points below expectations at the 40% point in his first of two seasons, but to me, he’s done a fantastic job readying this team to springboard back into serious contention while giving us a pleasant surprise “bridge year.”
  3. Illinois is dead on accurate.
  4. 450+ PAs in a season Worst Sox OPS .573 Hoffman '82 .589 T Pena '92 .593 Doyle '76 .596 Doyle '77 Marwin is on pace for 450 PAs and a .565 OPS. His defense doesn't come close to making up for that, and the flex added on, not either.
  5. It's hard to even count Santana, except to blame Bloom for calling him up. He was a depth signings for the minors with a ML opt out. Andriese is not making all that much, barely over 2X min wage. The Sawamura deal ($3M/2 yrs w option) cancels out Andriese. alone. Signings over $2.5M... $3M/1 Marwin- meh $3.1M Renfroe (w 2 arbd to go) Excellent $5M Perez (w option) Very good $7M x 2 Kike- Meh $10M Richards (w option) looked ok for a while, then...
  6. I just get the feeling 4 runs is not enough, tonight.
  7. Perez has been a plus. With great D, he'd have a 3.75 ERA.
  8. He can play 1B or maybe 3B, where range is not as important.
  9. True, there have been some line drive hits, but just some average D and umpiring, would have helped a lot.
  10. He needs fielders behind him, not monuments and statues.
  11. If we move Bogey to 3B, we force the opt out.
  12. He's a statue on D. His range is one or two steps, either way.
  13. I played a lot of baseball and softball in my day, and I was always drawn in by defense, especially SS defense- you know, the position where most balls are it? DUH!
  14. Bogey, Devers and the Ump need a good inning.
  15. Is Marwin on pace for the worst OPS by a Sox player in the last 5 decades? Worse, I think he's on pace for 450 PAs+.
  16. Cam I talk you into bottom 3-4 in MLB?
  17. trying to get 4-5 outs an inning is very taxing on any pitcher.
  18. I think Perez deserves some slack. The guy had a 3.09 ERA through 11 starts- tops on the team. He has 2 very horrific starts (11 ER in 3.1 IP) Then, he went 5 IP allowing 1 ER. All this, with horrible defense behind him.
  19. Our left side defense will be the death of this team.
  20. Is it part of all of our game plans to immediately walk the first hitter after we put up a crooked number?
