Old Red

You think the Atlanta GM was shocked Boston was willing to throw in so much money?

Did he roast the GM, or mercilessly roast the GM? Was it preposterous, or mercilessly preposterous. You crack me up that you think you have to come to the defense of a player, Manager, GM, or a owner like you were self elected to do so, and think you’re Deputy Dawg with a badge.🙈🤭

ND plugging along underfeated, but not excited yet. At BYU in a couple of weeks, and then Miami a couple of weeks later will be the test on how good they really are.

Good read it was, and as I posted the other day in JH first 7 years of ownership the Red Sox averaged 90 wins a year, and 2 WS among other things. The last 8 years the Red Sox have averaged 76 wins, and are now popping champagne corks after backing into the postseason in a very weak league. LOW bar all the way around.

Well said. Sale even came on in relief the other day to get 4 outs after starting a couple of days earlier.

Chad is just a grateful puppet.

Who will be the best speaker? Sam, Chad, or Bres? Unfortunately I heard Tom, or JH will not be there, so we won’t he all the real poop scoop.

Tomorrow at 1100 hours the Red SOX will hold their end of the year press conference. Sam has been working 24 hours a day on finishing up his speech?🤭🙈🤮

Wow! More charges, and accusations. Seriously though thank you for all the kind words, and accolades. I’ll keep working hard, and keep coming up with names, and slogans that fit the situations. Tracy definitely deserves some recognition for his underwhelming performance in his brief cameo appearance during the postseason. Bad Chad, or maybe Spacey Tracey. We’ll see. As for little Anthony maybe the Red Sox should trade him to the Marlins. He’s already spent a lot of time in Florida this past season so that should have helped him get used to the weather. You know when the Red Sox sent him there wink, wink to just rehab. Anyway always nice chatting with you. Have a good day, and football you bet!🙃

Well said.

Spot on! The magic carpet ride came back to earth.

Good post. I agree with some, but not much. Outside of the 27-3 run the Red Sox were not an exciting club, or even a good club. Yes Crochet was lost, but if you’re referring to little Anthony as the most important offensive player I strongly disagree there. He had plenty of hype, and expectations, but those don’t always pan out as this one didn’t. Agree on the playoffs were dreadful, but from all the fans I talked too, and heard on the airwaves most of pissed on how Tracy handled the pitching decisions, and don’t care who the game plan came from it was Tracy who made the actual moves being a puppet, or not. I said before the season the Red Sox took the cheaper way out, and we’d see how things would work out. bresLOW lowballed Alonso, and went to a cheaper option in Con Man. He lowballed Bregman to start with, and then negotiations fell apart from there, and went to a much cheaper option in DUBin. Then we get to the 5 inning $130M man who was turned to after Bregman bolted, which was cheaper, and didn’t even pitch 1 inning in the postseason. A defeating end to a torturous season I Agee. Playoffs? Did someone say playoffs?

True enough. The Red Sox went on that extended streaking adventure with a bunch of P&P players. It was never going to be sustainable.

What was Dick Tracy’s record on either side of the Red Sox going streaking? Not all that impressive, and especially his 2 game cameo appearance in the postseason.🤔

It was a unexplained once in a lifetime magic carpet ride in a league that was the weakest i have seen in my lifetime that saved the season, and got the Red SOX into the postseason, but on either side of that magic 27-3 run the team wasn’t really that good, and finished the postseason with a lineup that wasn’t any better than what finished last year, and the results was the same too with a feeble attempt in losing in a quick 2 game exit. In the first 7 years of JH ownership the team averaged 90+wins, and won 2 WS. The last 8 years the team has averaged 76 wins, and now are just happy, and popping champagne corks just to back into the postseason in a weakened league. What a low bar the team has now set, and obviously some fans.🤔
