On Dermody, if his history is of all these tweets, then that makes Bloom even more of an idiot. The Bruins signed a kid who committed an unspeakable act as a teen by putting a disabled kid head into a toilet and took the backlash and then released him 2 days later. Well, Bloom gets a free pass on this? Nope. This is one of the easiest firings ever. No one will cry for Bloom if he is fired today. Not a single person, but his family.
-
Actually, true, really good point.
-
You just made my case to Fire Bloom.
-
It's not Dermody, it's the situation. The timing. Think about it. Why would you even bother to throw a journeyman (emergency or not) during "Pride Month"....this is like throwing a grenade from your trench and having it hit the top of the trench bounce back and blow you up.
-
The Matt Dermody debacle is a good reason to fire Bloom now...look, he did the right thing and didn't let a stupid religious tweet (deleted, told to Bloom and explained and then took sensitivity training) get in the way of signing a guy...promotes him, so he starts him during Pride Week (this is on Bloom btw, not anyone else), then releases him the same night...this is the height of pussydom for Bloom and in all honesty doing the right thing, not standing by doing the right thing, giving in because we aren't allowed to apologize for mistakes anymore--cancelled! Then Bloom put Dermody in the worst case scenario, then designates him for assignment....Kluber meanwhile gives up 8 straight hits in relief...how bout just RELEASING HIS ASS, BLOOM! Fire BLOOM! Says it was a baseball move to drop him....bull to the s***.

This 2003 edition is brutal....500 and on its way to .475
-
Saying that for years..he "saddled" Sox with Manny, what a great signing, completely worth the entire 160 mil.

THIS IS THE HEIGHT OF HOW BAD THE SOX ARE RIGHT NOW....Cora now telling us you can't bring up hot hitters or it might impede on the hitting of poor hitters. Nice. The corner infielder is 26 of 67 (.388) with 10 home runs and 20 RBIs in his last 18 games for Triple A Worcester. In all, Dalbec is hitting .306 with a 1.081 OPS in 41 games for the WooSox. But the Sox don’t see a roster spot for him, even with first baseman Triston Casas hitting .191 with a .677 OPS through 51 games. “Where we’re at roster-wise, this is who we have,” manager Alex Cora said Sunday. “We’re glad that he’s going well, not only hitting for power but hitting for average. But obviously roster-wise right now, this is who we have.” ==================== So it's better to keep the .191 hitter who needs to go to the minors over the up-and-down Dalbec, who seems to have found his stroke again. I see, okay, don't want someone who might help the offense. Got it.

What's amazing is a few posters in here will defend every Bloom move and accept the losing, the s***** SP, the s***** defense, the lack of a star power, and the just complete gutting of a winning franchise. We are an all-time joke now. Every time the Sox win a game v. Tampa, Yankees, going back last few seasons, it almost is always followed by loss the very next day. It's because mediocre .500 teams operate that way.
-
Come on, Bloom has made one bad decision or call after another. He has continually not only made the wrong move, he has no concept of how important certain guys are to the clubhouse and to the morale of the team. He gutted the morale guys from roster. All of them--the last Eavoldi of that bunch. He behaves like a guy who doesn't understand intangibles to winning baseball.
-
yes, sarcasm.
-
yeah, good point, he went hard for Kluber...great job!

*Here's a Story...about a s***** signing*
-
I had a chance to continue a streak of watching the Sox in person when they were in Anaheim (only time didn't see Sox was pandemic year)....I ended it on my own...why? I couldn't justify driving there to watch a team that is hard to stomach, a team that 5 years ago I saw game 5 at Dodger Stadium and the Sox were the best, and proved they were the best, and had all the guns for the future...nope, blow it all up. Well congratulations..what did I miss when they lost 3 in Anaheim? Nothing. They sucked and I missed nothing. Pathetic, and sad.
-
The fact some of these former Sox continue to show their brilliance--like Mookie, like Eavoldi, Wacha, JD's recent hot spurt, etc...only tells me how the Sox have become an all-time joke now. Fans think signing 6-team, journeyman Refsnyder is great and then writers saying "Sox are in no position to trade for a starting pitcher."...say what? This is insanity. Upside down world where now the Sox have to hope the Japanese import continues to hit to make up for the other pathetic hitters strewn across the Sox lineup. Has beens, never wills, and Devers...wow, what a great sign for the future!!! Go Sox!! Let's hope Sale comes back! Can't wait for injury-prone Story or Duvall, they will bring us back to greatness!!! 80 year old Justin Turner Clubhouse Leader!! Kike, he's Nomar and Bogie in one body!! Whatever....bad team, bad GM, bad outlook...fans accepting of the mediocrity.
-
Bloom is like a guy having a bad streak at the blackjack table...He is feeling good with 2 tens in his hand against a 12 and dealer draws 9...he likes his chances with 2 queens, deal draws to 20 for a push...then he just makes bad moves, he decides to f*** the odds and with a 17 v. a 10, he draws and goes over, while the other card underneath is a 3 and then the dealer busts out...that's Bloom.
-
Story's signing is the albatross now.
-
All valid points, moon, so it comes down to is Henry calling these shots?
-
John Henry can have the longest leach, but if you want to compete for another title anytime soon, you fire Bloom, and you do it yesterday...
-
Bloom Doom...
-
Wacha and Eavoldi were just named NL/AL Pitchers of the Month....you can't make this stuff up.
-
Bloom is killing the franchise. Killing it. Unwatchable team...
-
JD 12 HR, 39 RBI, .278...Turner 6 HR, 22 RBI, .267....JD is also getting hotter.
-
Eovaldi went 4-0 with a 0.96 ERA in May while averaging nearly 7 2/3 innings per start. He leads the Majors with 74 1/3 innings pitched and two complete games while also boasting a top-five ERA in the AL.
-
Come on Moon, he is terrible. Yeah, letting go of Eavoldi, and please stop if anyone says Justin Turner is an improvement on super hot now JD. Verdugo and his War stats v. Betts, who has a greater impact on his team? The team is tough to watch, they are not entertaining. Kike is not very good, and was signed. The Story signing is/was and still is a disaster. JBJ? Yeah, trading away Hunter was an abject failure. Kluber, yes horrible. Should I applaud him that he has the greatest catching tandem of Wong-McGuire? Clap, clap. Constantly relying on Sale, let's squeeze the lemon as far we can. Enough. And Casas and Dalbec, the kids, they suck and playing more kids who suck, great. They unloaded a talented group and some important clubhouse guys. They suck. Period. Sale said it best "I suck." Well, he didn't this year so far, but the team does. Lastly, the Sox act like they are a budget-strapped franchise with a salary cap. They aren't.
