  1. So much for waiting for the report...
  2. But he also was in the dugout and clubhouse all year and would be aware of any sign stealing. It does like it would really annoy you if the Sox were innocent of all this. But Ithe anonymous source who may or maybe not have ever been in the dugout and clubhouse is more reliable...
  3. First of all, these players were all FIRED. You can’t demand to be reinstated from being fired. Second, none of them were fired by Manfred. Hinch was suspended but Manfred, but once he got fired, that didn’t matter...
  4. Your example was Beltrán being fired by the Mets. Being “fired by the Mets” is NOT a league punishment. Manfred had NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. The Mets clearly did not like the negative PR associated with Beltran’s name, but they made their own choice to fire him And really, Cora has not yet been punished by the league either. He’s been fired by the Red Sox but that isn’t the same thing...
  5. I think whoever the Sox hire will be a one year fill in
  6. I didn’t even know you could pluralize Mariners fan...
  7. Exactly. Which is why he isn’ta good example to my question about whether or not a manager could be punished for cheating on a previous team...
  8. Not relevant. The Commissioner didn’t take any action against Beltran...
  9. If you are going to insist on a bilingual manager, Carlos Beltran in available...
  10. Whether or not the Mets fire a player is completely independent of whether or not the league can punish him for transgressions in a previous uniform...
  11. He’s worth a shot. But if the Sox want a LHH 1b, Bird shouldn’t be the only one they sign...
  12. Could he have been suspended from the Red Sox for what he did in Houston?
  13. How do you know Ron Roenicke isn’t bilingual? The guy has 4 years experience under his belt. Safe bet he talked to a Dominican player at some point in that tenure. And really, with maybe 4 weeks until pitchers and catchers report, whoever manages the Sox this year is likely to be considered an interim manager with the real search starting next year...
  14. That there have been absolutely no rumors might be an indication that the new hiring will be internal (Roenicke?) and they expect to be cleared of any wrongdoing in the current investigation...
  15. It’s a tough call. Would having a better roster make for a more attractive opportunity for a managerial candidate? Or will anyone left be desperate? Or are they all so egomaniacal that each one figures he and he alone can win it all with this current or any roster regardless of what history has shown? (I think it’s the last one myself, but it’s not like I’m basing that on anything.)
  16. I don’t think it’s a matter of trying. We all suspected he’d be limited financially and he’s actually been acting just as if that was the case...
  17. As opposed to the major moves he was making before Cora was fired?
  18. And it all started with Osich, a lefty Bloom acquires twice...
  19. I like the Bloom hire and get the limited activity. I just wonder why nearly all of his acquisitions to date have been high strikeout left-handed relief pitchers...
  20. Lakins is a righty. Lefties only with Bloom..
  21. That because any rumor about the Red Sox = proof. However, rumors about the Yankees are unsubstantiaed lies, even after Andy Pettitte confesses...
  22. Inside information on the Mets, sure. On the Astros? Not looking good...
  23. Apparently the Sox will be throwing it left-handed...
  24. But how many high-strikeout AAAA left-handed pitchers do the Sox need?
  25. Wow! Spot on. I’ve heard him say that so many times...
