  1. Except that I rarely if ever bring it up…
  2. I’d say there are scenarios. The Red Sox don’t pay out big anymore, but that puts them on the longer list than if they were willing to splurge once in a while. I just don’t see Pivetta really attracting the interest of the Dodgers, Yankees, Mets, Astros or Phillies or any team that spend like those teams. Just like how Giolito didn’t this year…
  3. Especially if it is done with the goal of keeping Whitlock out of the rotation. But, let’s face it, Whitlock is absolutely going to be in the rotation when he gets back…
  4. Agreed. One bad game does not a season ruin…
  5. Nobody says that, but a lot of people say it gets said…
  6. My issue is Wong swinging at a 2-0 pitch from a guy whose thrown 10 balls in his last 11 pitches…
  7. Booser not fooling anyone today…
  8. I suspect - with no evidence whatsoever - that Mookie never really wanted to stay in Boston…
  9. His track record over the past few seasons shouldn’t be erased by a bad 9 start stretch…
  10. I’m new to this superstitious stuff. Should I announce or mark posts done purely for that reason?
  11. I added explanations while you were typing. See above…
  12. But that wouldn’t be helpful. Give a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you give him another hobby to spend some of that $360mill contract on. I mean, it’s not like bowling is all that expensive. Mookie needs a bass boat…
  13. Apparently you missed yesterday’s game thread. I questioned his choice of Valdez and his sub.450 OPS at DH. Valdez hit 2 HRs and 10 TB. So now I will see if lightning strikes twice…
  14. Cooper at DH?!?! What’s Cora smoking?!?!
  15. Why is FSG - worth approximately $8billion - doing major budget cuts on the Red Sox, a team that earned them over half a billion in 2023 alone?
  16. I actually don’t find it all that plausible, since Henry must have been somewhat aware of DDs management style from their time together in Miami…
  17. What makes you think 72 wins changes anything? The Sox won 71 games in 2014 and nothing changed…
  18. Romy Gonzalez. Not sure why he was avoided…
  19. It’s not about what DD was allowed to do then. It’s about what he’d be allowed to do now. Henry went with Bloom because he wanted to stop the heavy spending and build from within. DD does actually have a part where he did things like that, and for Henry, no less. So if Henry did keep DD on board, he’d have to operate within the same budget Bloom did, and not the one he has in Philly…
  20. 3 for 3 with 2HRs, 3 RBI and 10 total bases. I think I need to pick on Cora’s choice of DH more often…
  21. I bet Grissom, like most players, would rather start on a bad team than sit on the bench or be buried in the minors for a good one…
  22. For a closer, control & command >>> velocity…
