  1. You don’t give up on elite hitting or pitching talent. You don’t give up on 24 year old potential superstars in AB (see Reddick) You can add by subtracting players like Moreland Nunez Pierce where you have a viable option in Holt and Chavis ERod is the chip I move before the knee gives out which could get you a yankee type haul when they acquired Torres Problem is DD’s track record is trading prospects not trading for
  2. They will be lucky to win 80 never mind 86 Drop the dead weight and revamp the minor league system
  3. Cash strapped is a beautiful predicament to be in. Maybe Rusney can Close? Thanks Ben
  4. And you pink hats say my Post don’t make sense. The game is about adjustments always was and always will be. You do not give up on a 24 year old player with his ability. Let alone a Champion! Remember Josh Reddick, How did that work out? You don’t trade A and B type prospects for Relief pitchers not named Rivera it’s to risky. In hindsight you also lost the Kimbrel trade. Develop pitching! This is why it baffles my mind that Henry has not revamped the Minor League development system. It’s time for the Crockets and Abrahams to be shown the door!
  5. Blaming Cora is a joke! Dombrowski is Cap strapped by the former GM’s p!ss poor acquisitions Bullpen overall sucks, but you had to bet DD is waiting a half season so the money goes down on any contract traded for so you don’t once again take a hit in the Draft order This Team needs to buy and sell at the deadline much like the yanks did a few years ago
  6. 2 games back in the wildcard and falling fast Go Dombrowski go, you ain’t made a bad move yet Players who should be on the block ERod Porcello Price Nunez Moreland Pearce
  7. Vs winning teams you must play .500 ball or better. Cream puff record won’t count come playoff time
  8. You can not rationalize a loss by saying “we played well or we had a lead twice or this player pitched well or hit well. Bottom line is, without a legit Closer and Barnes pitching the 8th your going to lose more than you will win. Record vs winning teams is 7 games under .500. Playoff Teams in general usually play .500 ball vs each other which gives you a 50/50 chance of winning come playoff time. Pitching wins in The postseason which has been proven. Until a 9th inning arm emerges your chances of repeating are slim
  9. How did the “Closer by committee” work out last night vs Twins? You legend in your own mind stat geeks fail to realize a loss is a loss is a loss. You can’t sugar coat it. Unless DD finds a Closer or hidden gem which is remote, I’ll quote the great Terry Francona “good luck with that”!
  10. Is this Alex Cora? 18 is history! Now let’s face the facts and the facts r undisputed Without a Closer and possibly a 7th inning setup arm your in “big trouble in little China Jack”
  11. Running JSmith out to close says it all Plenty of prospects to make a move unless DD is pulling an Ainge Davis to LA, thanks Danny you haven’t made a bad move yet! Kimbrel to Cubs for 3 years 40 mill says he was never done or past his prime Cash strapped is a beautiful predicament to be in, thanks Ben, Tom, Larry and john
  12. Call Feltman
  13. LOL Just think, best player on the board that year at #7 was AMeadows Thanks Ben
  14. Post Season Absolutely Regular Season, You Posters say Im nuts!
  15. update 12 16 vs .500 better Teams
  16. 12 15 vs .500 or better Teams and No Closer, “Priceless”
  17. Dalbec at age 24 is a borderline bust. Outside of Groome everybody else in the minors should be trade bait Call Koji!
  18. Correct me if I’m wrong but Kimbrel has draft pick compensation attached if signed before the Draft in June Thank Cherington and friends for the luxury tax
  19. You boys need to worry about the relief pitching instead of Betts and Betts Cash strapped once again is a beautiful position to be in. Kimbrel would look good in the 9th right now
  20. How bout that Brasier?
