So who will replace Jerry on the Nesn broadcasts.?Most people will watch regardless of the announcers but more enjoyable with an entertaining crew. Eck does not want to do all the games and who else is there? Guys like Pedro ,Millar maybe even Middlebrooks might be entertaining but doubt they want to travel that much. Merloni?

I would love to see Verdugo leading off playing RF for next several years. Out of Verdugo,Renfroe ,Cordero ,Gonzalez and Hernandez Verdugo will probably be the only one playing every day so would rather off not move him in the field Verdugo Xander Devers JD After that depends on who plays

Heyman said Red Sox still make most sense for JBJ. So he has no clue “ possible” -or the Sox will have to move some salary to get him (not sure who it would be)

Guerin Austin let go- more money for Ozuna or JBJ?

Kluber may pitch well for the Yanks but with Eovaldi ,Sale and ERods injury history I am not at all upset the Sox did not get him

I don’t care if we sell low. I would rather have a guy like Rosario who has some pop play LF then put Verdugo in CF and have Renfroe in RF. Or bring back Bradley to play CF have Rosario in LF and Verdugo in RF and Renroe as the 4th OF. Don’t see Beni in CF and don’t see him as a 4th OF given he can really only play LF.

From what I read the vaccine just prevents you from getting symptoms not the actual virus. So a healthy person could conceivably get the virus not feel a thing and pass it on to others. If that is correct( I’m not a doctor so I don’t know) may be longer before fans can come back

Can you imagine a lineup of Renfroe ,Dalbec and Chavis? What is the MLB record for strikeouts by a team?

Depends if Bloom thinks the Sox can contend. If so maybe Wong or Schoop. If he think it’s a rebuilding year then I could see Arroyo or Chatham or possibly Chavis

Arroyo had 4-5 good games A competitive baseball team cannot have Dalbec and Chavis in the same lineup Munoz had 4-5 good games and apparently is a below average infielder Maybe we have no choice but there is a good probability none of this lot is any good. When Holt was healthy we were spoiled. I still don’t get the outrage over letting him go but he was decent in the OF and IF

Just saw an article on the free agent class Jackie Bradley #38 they predict he goes back to Sox at reduced salary

Again I’m not opposed to rehiring him but what team do you think will have more talent the 2019 team or the 2021? If he couldn’t win in 2019 what makes people think 2021 will be better. It’s possible that 2018 was just a stars aligned everything went right aberration. Maybe it makes sense because what he did with Devers and with probably some more young players Coming up he can help them too. I just don’t see how he has such a great reputation when his track record is one great year and one so-so year.

I’m not opposed to Cora but how does he get a pass on 2019? While they didn’t replace their closer and had some injuries they weren’t ready to play at the start of the season and with the talent they had at least contending for the 2nd wild card should have been attainable

Depends on the salary JBJ will command- if he would take a 2 year contract at under 10 million might make sense. I have a feeling he might get a longer contract offer but who knows? He is clearly not a top tier FA and from watching on TV hard to tell how much his defense has regressed. One way or the other with the pitching they have(even with improvements) need a good defensive outfield. Beni and Verdugo fine in the corners so Blooms task is to make sure CF is taken care of
