  1. 2013?
  2. Not if Mookie didn’t let them…
  3. The Sox had the chance for multiple years to extend Betts and failed to do so. And given their bulky salary, their only change to bring him back and avoid luxury tax was to deal him and hope he opted for free agency. It was a longshot, but it was also all they had. Shedding half of Price also helped…
  4. Monster May - 1.040 OPS All other months are under .900…
  5. Not everything in life is in the Sports section…
  6. The Rays are in on Flexen. The SP-depleted Sox are oddly silent…
  7. I’ve defended him against stupid allegations and attacked him for (what I consider) valid complaints. I’ve done the same for Cora. I mean, is “I think he’s doing what Henry wants” really that egregious of a defense?
  8. And that money - per you - went to upgrading Henry’s yacht. The upgrades were installed by a guy we’ll call “Doug”, despite his real name being Ivan. Anyway, with the money “Doug” got for the upgrades, he was able to purchase Invisalign braces for little 9 year old Tiffany to help with her overbite. So can you now see the benefits of trading Diekman?
  9. Ok so if it’s not that. Do you hate the hard-working blue collar types who upgrade yachts so they can feed their family?
  10. My experience tells me that the more adamantly something/someone requires defense, the more likely the accusations are correct…
  11. And as those upgrades have an AAV of $0, they do leave room for deadline acquisitions. Or are you implying that Henry needs to spend more and be like the Mets and Padres?
  12. Wow. Going all the way to “perfectly as usual.” You do realize the CDT is not a paying position…
  13. Or the 2007 New England Patriots…
  14. Still predicting he gets traded. Probably worth mentioning, when it comes to predicting Sox roster moves, I’m pretty sure I’m 0 for Bloom…
  15. How did the A’s ever manage to have a 7 game winning streak?
  16. … and Alfaro is hairy…
  17. Cora said before the game he didn’t think Chang should just step right in and play everyday…
  18. I’d be all for giving him more time at SS. Even with Chang back, he could step in right away…
  19. But how many innings for each? WAR is a cumulative stat…
  20. Two candidates who leap to mind are Orlando Arcia and Jonah Heim…
  21. I think that was all just a family-sized firkin of fecal matter. If Ripken got by defensively on the “Wisdom of the Ages”, it didn’t show up on his reduced assist and output totals. “Sure he’s slower than the other shortstops, but he’s like Radar on M*A*S*H; he senses where the grounder is going and gets there first. It’s like a super power. Spoooo-ooooky!” That was all just some lousy backstory to justify keeping him at SS for all those years. And a sad addition, as Ripken carried enough of a legacy without folks just making stuff up like that.
  22. Golf is one of two sports I will never watch and never play. The other is auto racing…
  23. I agree. I think he transitioned over to starting CF. To me, he makes Ceddanne Rafaela just a little easier to part with. (Although Rafaela is probably the best defensive SS on the Red Sox 40 man roster right now.)
  24. You discourage opinions all the time. Over 50% of your posts last year were dedicated to ensuring no one said anything positive about the Red Sox…
