    I was just thinking why the Sox have no interest? I would offer ERod and ?
  2. MADSTORK
    I would like to see a few trades that might re-stock the farm even if they are B type prospects... Kelly Barnes ERod come to mind. End of day Pitching wins in a Series. Cole in Pitt said to be had. Strong upside with a few very good seasons under his belt. You would have to think Boston could beat the proposed frazier and adams?
  3. MADSTORK
    I disagree... LH Starters with any talent do not grow on tree's. If he doesn't like it here and by all accounts he does not, your still cashing in 90 after 3 yrs and off to the next buyer... He is as good as gone after 18..
  4. MADSTORK
    Price can opt out after 18 I believe? I don't see him staying in Boston unless he gets injured. Kelly Bust, trade or release Porcello trade if throwing well now or at the deadline Kimbrell is a coin flip relievers can fall pretty fast.. Over the luxury tax for Harper Kershaw or whomever? Absolutely !

    DD should be setting this Organization up for a run at the big Free agent Class of 18-19. Harper Brantley Machado Donaldson Blackmon Kershaw Harvey Keuchel and the list goes on... Im not opposed to signing a fringe type Hitter but the more you here about some of these proposed deals for the talent level this season, it might be a good idea to wait it out.... Your handcuffed with Ramirez at the moment especially with the vesting option. If Im DD there is no way Ramirez reaches the Kicker on AB's to kick in the option. Not a chance. Perfect scenario, find a hungry team to take the contract on even if you kick in a prospect see NYY....

    Is CYoung next?
  7. MADSTORK
    With the talk of signing both Hosmer and JDM anyone think the sox will try and unload Ramirez and or Porcello? Yanks dumped Headley, anyone know if SD took on all the money?
  8. MADSTORK
    Time for Diamond Dave to make a move is it not?
  9. MADSTORK
    Ask yourself that ? A few years into the deal when the power numbers decline and your paying 30 million for a DH after giving up a front line player or Groome. A Stanton deal has the 80’s and early 90’s Yankees feel to it. Spend spend spend and lose lose lose. These young Sox players might benefit with a new Hitting Coach whose approach is said to be driving the ball out of the park.. Buy a free agent !
  10. MADSTORK
    LOL You are more than likely correct. The Sox need to get back to the style of team building that won them rings in all 3 world series appearances. Dirt dog players! Just say no to Stanton. The deal more than likely will be similar to a Pujols deal at the end and that really will handcuff a team. Ridiculous thought in any conversation. Hosmer, Santana talk is encouraging.
  11. MADSTORK
    Save the smoke for a run at Harper in 18
  12. MADSTORK
    Good call on Varitek.
  13. MADSTORK
    Otani will go to the Team he prefers since there is the pool cap on what he can make. More than likely LA or NYY JD but only if Ramirez is moved XB gets another chance, this time with a different hitting coach
  14. MADSTORK
    Past management is to blame for the luxury tax implications or lack of payroll flexibility. Ramirez Sandoval Craig Castillo Porcello. Prospects are developed to trade for big league talent. At the moment no prospect traded by DD has become AJudge. First order of business for DD is to rid himself of the Coaching Staff to include Farrell. 16 ER in 11 innings from your starting staff in a playoff series is unacceptable. Not to mention the similar numbers from the starters in 16 vs Cleveland. Much work to do but first, the Manager must go or DD must go as well..
  15. MADSTORK
    Hosmer
  16. MADSTORK
    Farrell isn't the problem. One could conclude that he also is not the answer. 15 17 vs AL playoff teams minus the twins. Last week of the season you end at 2 5. 13 was magical, 16 was a blessing, 17 your paying for past players who have handcuffed your ability to add the missing piece at the deadline. The missing piece was or could have been Bruce and or Verlander this season. If Farrell returns in 18 so be it. In the end, its up to Dombrowski to construct this roster with a veteran swagger that won this Organization the title in 13
  17. MADSTORK
    The Sox being aggressive on the bases has to be a result of the lack of power and the overall inconsistency of the Offense.. They are still ranked last in most every pertinent offense category of all the current playoff Teams. Sale back to earth does not play well for any playoff matchup. Add Ramirez being Sandoval the last month is a recipe for another quick exit.
  18. MADSTORK
    Houston helping us out....
  19. MADSTORK
    This Team is way to inconsistent both offensively and defensively. Stay agressive, it might be the only way they win a Series
  20. MADSTORK
    I would take Trout over Stanton...
  21. MADSTORK
    Cleveland Win streak. 14 games won 98 runs scored. Here is the kicker. 4 shut-outs, 6 other games 2 runs or less, Team ERA 1.6 Moral of my story, Yes it is baseball, I just don't see Boston home field advantage or not, defeating Cleveland at any point in the Play-offs. I believe we should root for Cleveland to catch Houston for the #1 seed. At least in a 7 game series there is more room for error... If I was Management I would preserve Sale at all cost. Rest him this weekend vs Tampa, perhaps another skip in the rotation in a few weeks and get him right.. For the love of Jesus, lets pray Fister stays hot!
