  1. LOL You can thank DD for the 30 million dollar bust 30 mill to spend this July would start prepping the duck boats NOT!
  2. Are you denying Luchinno wasn't a problem as well?
  3. All you Poster's are great Sox fans! I respect all your opinions. I'm here to keep it all in perspective for you guys and gals, thats all!
  4. What nonsense? Your pink hat mentality is fine. I won't hold that against you. I will say The Organization needs the pink hats to pay those outrageous ball park prices and praise every player move they make or every draft pick or every new Manager that runs the team into the ground. I myself, when I see an Organization built by a Hall of Fame Executive, win 2 World series Titles then get shown the door to include a Manager who won you both those titles by an incompetent Ownership group, I question it! Cherington brought the Sox Ownership back into the game with the Farrell hire and the same dirt dog mentality to win a ring in 13. Then Ownership via Luchinno low balls an Ace pitcher with Hall of Fame post season numbers and you have been chasing your tail ever since. Garbage Free Agent signings. What is the result, fire Cherington bring in Dombrowski who continues the string of "not keeping payroll flexibility" by over spending on a DUD! Now that 30 million could have been the reserve last year and this, to go out and get that one big chip to win you a Ring. You only save and spend the big smoke $$ on premier power pitchers like Lester Scherzer Verlander Kershaw to an extent Cueto, not inconsistent pitchers like Porcello. The same for hitters. You pay the superstars of this game like Manny, Ortiz, not the sandoval crawford Hanley duds who eventually tax strap you. A DeGrom trade wins you a ring, without him, keep paying the piper and john henry!
  5. Regular Season Stats mean jack! Ask the 2001 Mariners who won 116 Games, led MLB in ERA what their World Series Ring size was? Starting Pitching Stats last 2 post seasons 22.2 IP 41 hits 28 Earned Runs says it all. Just think, if the Sox were not cash strapped and traded for Verlander last summer. Grant it, Verlander might not have helped the 17 Sox but he sure would have put Boston as the clear cut favorite to win a Championship this year. You cannot continue to blow massive amounts of payroll on garbage players who limit your flexibility this time of year when your a contending team. IF DeGrom is available ? 3 1 Post season record 2.88 Era 25IP 29K There is zero guarantee of winning a ring, but you need the Flexibility as a GM to GO get that one final piece to put you over the top. EVEN if that one final piece might be a year or two away! Dombrowski made some very good trades but he over spent on a DUD in Price much like he did in Detroit with Cabrera and let Scherzer walk. Post It!
  6. Why dance around the issues like the pink hat and liberals do? Call it like you see it, Price is a bust ! Its that simple
  7. Not enough SP to win a ring. All the pitching money is tied up in Triple AAA, the Dominican, San Fran and Priceless. Sale on pace for another 200 plus IP, Porcello HR rate climbing as it was last year, ERod is a 5 inning pitcher.... I quote the words of the great Terry Francona, "Good Luck"
  8. The fact is and the facts are undisputed, Price is a bust and right up there with Sandoval Crawford Renteria Craig Ramirez and every other swinging #ic# Management brought in here without any regard to the media scrutiny and the hefty contracts given out to players over the age of thirty. Its a complete joke! Now, is it salvageable? Yes it is, but the approach needed is to rid this team of the under performers. Dump Porcello who clears a spot for Castillo ( to pair with JBJ and better bench depth) and find a third starter to finish out the season. Porcello allows to many home runs per 9 to be counted on in a playoff run. I'll take my chances with Sale ERod and wright if need be. As constituted this Starting Pitching staff will not win you a Series. How bout machine gun tonight vs Washington. Another run allowed another kimbrel bailout in the 8th!
  9. Ive been saying this since they let Lester and Lackey go for Peanuts! Better watch out with your assessment, all these pink hats on this board will crucify you...
  10. Priceless tonight! Thanks Dave John Tom
  11. Not if you trade the three stooges!
  12. Groome is the prototypical LH Pitching Prospect Teams drool over 6' 6" with legs the size of tree trunks. TJ will not scare anybody off. Its a Starting point for 30 year old starting pitcher who can dominate a Series. Bigger ? is, what would the Yankees offer or perhaps Seattle and Arizona
  13. Trading AB XB or Devers for DeGrom? And you boys call me delusional.......... Groome and ERod get u to the table. Lets not forget the Sox have some pretty good low level talent in Chatham Baldwin Cedroia. Give Buttrey a call up! The K numbers don't lie and deal off one of the three stooges for better bench help. 3B for late inning defense is a must
  14. ERod to the Mets sounds better every minute
  15. Mr. Idiot please! Three Stooges = Hembree Kelly Barnes. Rid yourself of the inconsistency and give Buttrey a shot
  16. I said it once I'll say it again, the three stooges should have been shown the door a long time ago. Its obvious outside of Kimbrel there are big time issues. DD missed the boat on Herrera and its going to hurt
  17. The original reply was Porcello to cubs for 2B help. Groome, Erod to mets for a shot at DeGrom. Sale DeGrom Price and a #4 Starter picked out of a hat gives you a far better chance at a ring then running out 3 LHP in the Playoffs. Plus, you clear another 22 million in 19 for the Bonanza or the resigning of Betts XB and whomever else comes about...
  18. Epstein has balls of steel. Torres for chapman won a series. Not out of the ? he deals for a SP, which outside of Lester they don't have this year. Dump porcello for a legit 2B prospect and move on DeGrom with Erod and Groome your going to win a Ring
  19. DeGrom is 30. Not going to cost a superstar player or players. A Level Prospects should get it done? Its lefty dominate rotation vs Yanks and Houston for a Pennant. DeGrom is the power pitcher u need to have a shot at a Title. I would put ERod and Groome on the table and if that doesn't get the Mets attention ###k em!
  20. Finally your coming around!
