  1. If the Yankees add Snell, without a quality addition, the Sox will be lucky to go 72-90. The team has not been improved at all.
  2. He's right on this. https://sports.yahoo.com/pedroia-sent-very-clear-message-211014553.html
  3. Bauer is a no go.
  4. We should be going after players like Blake Snell and Cody Bellinger. We have a team of nobody's. It's obvious we have no intentions on even trying to win.
  5. That's at best a 70-92 club. Looks like tough 2024 for us.
  6. The Red Sox have been nothing short of a disaster in FA.
  7. The Sox are looking like a perennial last place team. We need guys who can get on base (we've got none).
  8. Not yet. The Red Sox should go to the Angels and take Trout off their hands so the Angels can offer big money to Ohtani. The Yanks just killed us by landing Soto (who is an on base machine and with the short porch will be a 50 homer guy every year). The Red Sox need a star that we do not have, otherwise we will be in last place for a decade.
  9. In a word, NO! That's a last place team. It may not be a Royals or A's last place team, but it is not better than any team the AL East. We are stuck with Story, Devers, and Yoshida, like 'em or not (I would keep only Yoshida of those three if I could). The rest of the players are little better than minor league plus journeymen players. I liked Abreu's eye at the plate.
  10. I hate the Astros.
  11. The team can hire anyone who can count and do just as well as any of these insider retread GM types. A team is just that. It's not just a bunch of guys. The team needs to be able to get along, and be willing to play for each other. I'm available. More low OBP isn't going to get it done.
  12. I thought we would win 72 games and at this point with 7 games remaining the team has 76. The team is bad. The coaching is horrible. There are maybe 13 players I keep and the rest deal, cut, send back to the minors. We are stuck with overpaid/overrated Devers, overpaid Sale who is terrible.
  13. Mike Hazen?
  14. But what happens if the 20 balls missed by A don't result in a run scored? And the 10 errors by B results in 10 losses? That's the problem with WAR.
  15. It's time to move on. It's been 5 years now, with a break. The magic is gone from 2018. Don't see it being rekindled.
  16. As of yesterday, and forgetting about the bust Jeter Downs, summing up Verdugo and Connor Wong's numbers, they combine for 108 more hits than Betts (32 more doubles). Yes they have 40 less total bases (60 less homers), 42 less walks, 21 less stolen bases, but they only have 40 less run scored and 29 less RBI. We dumped salary which is important. A star will be available. Now go sign Ohtani.
  17. Are we going to be buyers or sellers or staying put the next day and half? We are 2.5 out of wild card, effectively in last place with Yankees. Our relief has cost us two games now in SF. No offense.
  18. Chang has an OBP of 0.2. That's beyond terrible.
  19. Kiki is supposed to be in the Dodger's starting lineup tomorrow. We have to pay $2.5 million of his remaining contract.
  20. The Dodgers got Chris Taylor back. Trayce Thompson is rehabbing. They also have Jonny Deluca also in the outfield (his defense is terrific). JD has a hammy injury, not sure if serious. As for us, the Red Sox have played far better than what I thought they would (eating some crow). Story hit a homer in his first game at Portland, but he drew the collar yesterday. He had a single and a walk and committed an error in today's combined no hitter. He was pinch run for later in game (not sure what that was about). I wish the team would not do the forearm bash as Story did on that homer (Kiki dislocated Bellinger's shoulder in game 7 of the NLCS after Bellinger hit what would later be the game winning homer, it's taken two plus years to recover). Hopefully McGuire is ready in two weeks.
  21. Take two aspirin. Don't worry, we won't be getting Ohtani as Jackie Bradley is available. Plus if the Angels are smart, they unload the over-muscled and constantly injured Mike Trout (he's reminding me of this mentor Albert Pujols) and then sign Ohtani to a $500 million contract.
  22. These are stats for the first half of this year. Judge has 19 homeruns in those 49 games. We dropped $300 million on Devers (who is not much of a team guy) and he only has one more HR than Judge in 87 games. Unload him and get Ohtani.
  23. If the Angels would do that trade, then do it. The Angeles need hitters and pitching (like every team). Ohtani is the guy we need to get now. He is the real deal. The Sox have missed out on Freeman, Judge, Seager, Turner, Kershaw, etc. We let Eovaldi, Martinez (both allstars) and Bogaerts walk. Yet we still have Sale who has been a bust (averaging 6.5 wins a year, pretty pathetic acquisition). Story is averaging just 1/3 of hit over each of the 253 games the team has played the last two years. Not good.
  24. MLB & broadcast partners have ruined this event with the clock and the short BP pitching location. The ESPN cameramen could not keep up with each pitch. They were swinging the camera around like a two year old trying to film something. We couldn't even see homeruns, just the pitch and a swing and maybe a quick look to the outfield with the camera panning all over to try to find the ball. Either the director was drunk or blind or was inept, and with the split screen they couldn't match the speed at which the pitches were tossed to the batter. MLB needs to kill the clock and go back to outs. They could also push the pitcher to the real mound, which would also slow the pace of the event and enable the cameramen to actually track and find the ball. It was terrible. And the T-Mobile colors on the screen made me gag as if I was watching LIV golf on the CW. Not good.
  25. Can this thread be retitled 2023 Draft?
