  1. Referring to his comment that fans want to tear things down, so do GMs it seems in certain areas.
  2. After the fact, it's easy to validate Devers, Bregman and others...but people don't take into account how some of the players thrived as hitters in Fenway, some great players over the years used Fenway to their advantage. Not saying Bregman, Devers (and others) were going to be on the downside, but it makes a difference where you hit half of a season.
  3. DIdn't Breslow tear it all down with the coaching staff?
  4. The Sox basically have become "unwatchable." Never thought it would be possible. They are not entertaining, fans are given the worst home team in baseball by far.
  5. He was saddled with s*** for offense. Working with s***. How did we do on the Devers, Betts and Sale trades?...Breslow is pathetic...as far as changing managers, that's fine, agreed hired to be fired but make no mistake Cora pushed for Bregman and the Sox couldn't even re-up him. You can only do so much with s*** for offense.
  6. Breslow surrounded himself with non-baseball advisors, non-MLB experienced people. He traded Kyle Harrison which proves he didn't do his "homework" as the Sox continue to get nothing out of the Betts or Devers trades. He fires his entire baseball coaching staff because clearly WS winning Cora (who led team to a WC spot a year earlier) and Tek don't know what they are doing. Now that Anthony and Crochet clearly were rushed back in rehab, maybe Breslow should now fire the entire medical staff, doctors, trainers, everyone. Breslow should have been fired yesterday. It's a mess. He interviews Schwarber on zoom and doesn't even offer the power hitter the Sox desperately needed. He undervalued Bregman...the guy needs to go.
  7. From Globe, yikes The offense has reached levels of futility unseen since the dead-ball era. The Sox have scored just 22 runs in their last 12 home games, tied for the fewest over any 12-game home stretch in a single season in Fenway Park history and the lowest since 1917.
  8. Well, Nomar defense did same in 2004
  9. Story was great last year for once, Bregman was awesome enough and awesome enough in some clutch ABs, or why he is such a great performer, or why he was signed...The Sox had platoon infielders who suddenly performed in the Yanks series...they had Refsnyder during the reg season and he was pretty much most consistent hitter, and they had Romy who also hit lefties...this is a completely different team offensively in so many ways...Anthony was pretty great til he got hurt (sounds like the Poitras thing all over again in a B's comparison). This is not just standing pat, it's they were asking to be a banjo team and they got it. No power, and now not even any OBP to speak of.
  10. can Nostradamus hit a baseball? Sign him up.
  11. inefficiency is like saying play responsible 200-foot hockey and don't make mistakes and don't take chances...that resulted in: 1 goal, 1 goal, 1 goal, 1 goal...last 240 regulation minutes. Be afraid, be very afraid!
  12. Red is right...trying to compare this Banjo hitting, chi-chi sox like group to any of the Sox teams of the last 50 years is insulting to the lat 50 BoSox teams...Take all the analytics out of it, and it still comes down to offense. No offense, you lose. That's it...simple as that..bad team, no power, no runs. Breslow wanted this, he's got it. And he will be fired soon, I believe that.
  13. The way the Globe has portrayed some stories is laughable...The one about look how great the rotation is that was 8-6 (8-6 is great?) in the last 14 and that's 4th best ERA in that time...ummm, they are an under .500 team that can't hit it 200 feet let alone 385...this is awful. No spin shows you also how boring they are to watch. The young kids who hope to be Anthony fans or Durbin or the future, I feel sorry for them.
  14. It was exciting except you are supposed to build on it...so first you don't re-sign Bregman, who clearly helped that dugout. You refuse to move on from Yoshida (albeit did well in his few ABs v. Yanks) and instead decide let's have 5 OF..as much as I didn't think Refsnyder was all that, he at least hit lefty pitching well and was better suited for platooning than a Yoshida or Duran. Then sure you get Contreras, but really don't want any big bopper...they set them up to have crappy offense. Declaring Durbin as a 3B, putting kids in awkward spots to be regulars...bad team and expecting better D and pitching to carry you is what killed the B's too--no offense despite Vezina goaltending. No offense is no offense. It kills you and even the Pats had no offense in AFC title and Super Bowl. Without the offense, forget winning.
