  1. Stork is that you ?
  2. Team started 10 20 with 8 blown saves No closer but you have a Coors field 2B until age 34 at 20 plus Jansen (1 yr 16) should have been the target he signed late if Orlando offered him 20 you don’t think he would have signed here? What part of this don’t you understand?
  3. Any NSong news for 23?
  4. Amen Clint! At the moment Bloom is two steps back and one step forward From what I’ve heard from a distance relative of mine who was a backup OF for the Mets in the mid to late 70’s and worked within the Mets Scouting department in the early to mid 80’s his take on Tampa over the years was that of the moneyball philosophy which in fact is all statistical driven without more times than not “physically scouting a player” Moneyball’s other philosophy was never draft a high school player, draft college players and when making trades your always looking for older prospects with emphasis on on OBpct and slugging not taking into account the other offensive metrics Now Bloom did draft a high schooler first round in 21 and again in 22 which does question his philosophy and overall outlook of what his plan might be? Look at Blooms deals, most of the prospects traded for are in the 22 to 24 year old range playing at a lower level than where they should be. More times than not you can trade for those players with ease in hopes of landing a legit moneyball player which takes the Arb years into the players late 20’s which in moneyball terms is the players peak years Moral of my story, moneyball never won a World Series. Far as Bloom goes, I can’t figure out the direction he is trying to go in which in fact st the moment has not been trending upward
  5. I agree, I give Bloom a B+ on the deal. The prospect Abreu is a legit RF with a great arm and has turned into a power bat at a power bat position He is a little older but I would get him up and start him in RF see what you got?
  6. I’ll give 1B a pass since I think the plan was for Casas to eventually take over but he was injured and the plan went out the window Story signing money wise is a head scratcher. It’s a bad deal for a Coors field player but again I’ll give Bloom a pass here since Boston is a major market team Sale Evoldi well it’s the risk you take Injuries are a risk Again Renfro trade started the downfall
  7. 2021 was a great year! Bloom didn’t take what he already had in place and add. He started subtracting and it snow balled Just like you stated, there was zero reason to trade Renfro , zero. You could justify the AB deal because ultimately he landed Renfro 30 100 players do not grow on trees. Second mistake was not signing Jansen! Again, the first 30 35 games into 22 you had double digit blown saves
  8. Hosmer for most of his contract paid for and I mean 90% or better is a good move The 2 prospects are to old for the level there at. Age 23 in A ball don’t cut it Again if Hosmer can hit a little flip him in the off-season for another chip
  9. I heard weight issues were a concern
  10. Is SD absorbs 90% of Hosmer’s deal it’s a very good move Again only if Boston is on the hook for very little I still move Martinez! Casas looks like the real deal here since returning to AAA Free up the DH for both Casas and hosmer JD was great but to old to warrant any extension with Devers and XB looming Make a deal Bloom I’m gaining confidence by the minute
  11. You cannot predict injuries Again, all this GM had to do was bring back the 21 OF
  12. Again, if your rebuilding then rebuild! Don’t acquire a 34 year old bear leaguer with a 2 million buyout in 23 for what, to win 72 games instead of 70? F##king joke!
  13. Justify this Vazquez trade then? go ahead let me hear it Organization has no catching, you deal your #1 guy for again, Orlando loves the 23 to 25 year old prospects in AA Valdez has no position defensive liability Abreu although might have value and can play RF but .250 career hitter thus far It’s not about the prospects it’s about dealing your #1 C at cheap money
  14. Power bat great 21 season. 4 million more in Arb you pencil him in RF another season Just think AB Renfro were traded for beer leaguers and JBJ whose salary 9.5 and say he’s bought out at 8, 17.5 tied up with a player who is 34 and cannot hit You could have had 2 productive players for less money than your paying Bradley!! It makes zero sense
  15. Lmao It won’t be long Red, after today’s incompetence by Orlando, Henry will have no choice but to can this clown like he did Valentine in 12 Bye bye
  16. Read my post Hugo, I state facts and the facts are undisputed Again, put your finger in one ear and listen, if AB and Renfro were not traded you have 2 legit OF’s, Hernandez in CF gets hurt you only have to replace 1 player not 3 referring to this season There is no logic in any of the moves Orlando has made , zero If you believe he’s the next Epstein ( 3 titles) your mistaken
  17. Whose going to catch Little Nicky, Mickey Mouse? Orlando trades Vazquez your in the same boat as when you traded AB and Renfro Have some cookies and milk and take a nap
  18. Lmfao Betts Renfro AB any of those players ring a bell Larry? Take the rose colored glasses off remove lips from blooms @ss and smell the coffee
  19. Did you just wake up?
  20. Your a loyal fan, I respect that Like I said, 21 team needed a 1B and a closer, Orlando could have easily done that while picking up the SP scrubs but he didn’t he tried to get creative with Renfro and Story, it backfired If the Roster was set and injury occurs or the team just sucks so be it. You move on to the next season Every trade has backfired, Story ? Bullpen scrubs to include Barnes ext is ridiculous You cannot justify these moves, you can’t !
  21. Don’t stop my friend your on a great roll called the truth…
  22. And you pink hats say I’m nuts! Lol
  23. The Team would be better with him wouldn’t they, hey pink hat ? Keep sipping the Bloom kool-aid Hugo, I hear it gets better with age
  24. Do your homework It’s a risk no matter how you see it Martinez can hit and has been one of baseball’s best for a long time 2 days off isn’t going to compromise that for any Team looking to deal Smell the coffee
  25. Again, all these analytical numbers that are posted are supposed to justify a player being traded? 1.7 lmfao! Power bat power arm in RF with 30 hr power and your going to deal him because of a win number ratio? 59, if you don’t have a good shrink to talk with, I can refer you to one Binelas strike out ratio is through the roof, see Dalbec and Hamilton is 25 in AA. Beer leaguers Bloom should be fired over this deal alone
