  1. Giolito may have a partial tear of his UCL and may need season ending surgery. What a disaster and a horrible signing!!!! Par for the course for this organization!!!
  2. Red Sox trade oft injured Chis Sale for the now injured Vaughn Grissom. Seems about right.
  3. Chris Sale yesterday: Two perfect innings, 4 strikeouts. Hope he stays healthy and has a big year for the Braves.
  4. Red Sox bullpen has already blown two 9th inning leads. They are in midseason form already.
  5. Still was a good deal.
  6. I think it was a good trade for the Red Sox. Schreiber is 35 years old. He was really good in 2022 but so so in 2023. Sell high. Hope the prospect turns into a contributer.
  7. The Red Sox are going nowhere this year. They might as well hold onto him for the whole season so he will be theirs going forward. Think
  8. Sox should not trade any of their top prospects under the current circumstances. The only way they should is if they are getting a young, controllable, star, a la Pedro for Tony Armas Jr. and Carl Pavano.
  9. Red Sox take a flyer on Michael Fulmer. Two year minor league deal. He is out for 2024 season. Hopefully, he can contribute in 2025. Low risk move.
  10. With the 2024 rotation I see many opportunities for mop up work when the Sox are getting hammered.
  11. Unfortunately, it appears that the Red Sox are headed toward a year of mediocrity. Not enough starting pitching or defense to seriously contend for anything.
  12. I've seen that movie
  13. I don't think we have or had a great bullpen. Good, but not great by any stretch of the imagination. Agree that it would be nice to have some starters who can deliver quality starts 60% of the time or more.
  14. There are not a lot of great starting pitchers out there. The game has become a bullpen game. Find guys that can give you 5 decent innings and build a great bullpen (easier said than done I know). Don't pay 20 million+ for mediocre starters just because they are the best of the bunch.
  15. From a very early age I lived and died with the Red Sox. I suffered, along with all other Sox fans, through gut wrenching WS losses in 1967, 1975 and 1986, along with excruciating losses in 1978 and 2003. Those were all tempered by WS wins in 2004, 2007, 2013 and 2018. From the time free agency began the Sox always brought excitement to me and Sox fans with big off season moves. The team was always interesting. Now to present day. I am not excited by the Red Sox at all. its hard to watch a whole game. The team, since 2020 has pretty much become unwatchable. The teams have been poorly constructed. Terrible defense. No pitching. It seems as if ownership is content to have a mediocre, at best, product. They are going to see a lot of empty seats next season. Sox fans aren't stupid. They can see a lack of effort by ownership in putting out a winning team while they watch the Dodgers and other teams go for each year. Its sad to see such a great franchise sink to the level of the bottom feeding teams.
  16. So far, this has been a totally boring off season. Hope things pick up at the winter meetings.
  17. MLB needs to do what the NBA and NFL do and have signing periods. Should be from the day after the WS until December 31st.
  18. Phillies overpaid Nola. 7 years $172 million for a 30 year old pitcher. They will regret that contract.
  19. Felger and Mazz both suck. What a terrible talk show. Captain Negative and Doctor Doom. They hate Boston sports teams. Felger is a huge Milwaukee fan. Big Jim Murray is also a moron. Nothing positve comes out of their show and their opinions are garbage. They must listen to Tomase or Reimer, another couple of losers who hate Boston sports teams.
  20. Some team is going to sign him. It appears he was set up. Sox need starting pitching despertately.
  21. Red Sox should sign two pitchers from Japan: Yamamoto and Trevor Bauer (not proven guilty of anything and not civilly liable for anything).
