    How about packaging Masa, Hicks, and Sandoval that’s always a suggested proposition?🤓
  2. Old Red
    Good points here. The Red Sox used to be one of the big boys, but now the boys are bigger, and there are more of them.
  3. Old Red
    No I don’t think the age matters much, or if all. The guys you mentioned were better pitchers than Sandoval. You keep saying he’s proven he can pitch very well for long stretches, and I just don’t see that at all. Very nice numbers?🤭
  4. Old Red
    He’s not even a Paxton.
  5. Old Red
    To me he’s just another of these special projects the Red Sox like to pay a pitcher to rehab for a year, and hopefully get something out of him the next year $18M, or not. From what I can see he’s been nothing, but a career loser, and not just in a small way. I’m not expecting much to nothing at all from him.

    McAdams asked Brez if it was the Red Sox philosophy to make trades instead of signing FA, and Brez kind of said it was without saying it something about not limiting options.

    I’m just saying what gets talked about the most. I guess also it depends on what cheap means to each one. It sounds like different things just on here.

    Out on the street, airways, and media it’s not the 4 WS that the Red Sox have won under JH, but the losing-last place teams especially since 2013 that gets talked about more justified, or not.
  9. Old Red
    Having the highest ticket prices, and payroll to revenue to gets mentioned a lot too. Of course being first in 2018-2019 would not be first today either.
  10. Old Red
    I can’t believe his 1000 word column didn’t convince you. YOU are right about being all over the place, but remember again he’s not defending, or apologizing for JH. Seems I heard the word SHAM coming from one poster more than once on here though. 🤫
  11. Old Red
    If the Red Sox had a dollar for every time you said you’re not defending, or apologizing for JH, or Bloom back in the day they would have enough money by now to have afforded both Flintstone, and Alonso.🤭
  12. Old Red
    As I said the other day for the next two years some fans will compare the Con Man’s stats to Alonso’s stats, and if Breggie resigns they will compare Breggie’s stats to Raffy’s stats.

    I was talking about BTV values, and not money in the REAL world of baseball, and the swapping of bad contracts for bad contracts. Trying to keep trying to swap Hicks, and Masa on BTV is easy, but not so much in real baseball.
  14. Old Red
    More like a roast than a toast.
  15. Old Red
    I’ll believe it when I actually see it happen, and NOT until then.
  16. Old Red
    To much money, and to many years
  17. Old Red
    Agree on wildest, and a big NO on the rest. Tampa would most likely take Duran, but no on the rest. You put to much focus on money, and not enough on the want, need, and fit. BTV will accept anything if the values align.
  18. Old Red
    I agree. I know some are more down on BO. Of course the amount of years, which will be longer than Breggie would most likely be the big hang up.
  19. Old Red
    I agree with all about the money. He had offers last year from Houston, and even bigger from Detroit.
  20. Old Red
    They all depend on the deal, and the trade, but I agree with this. The Red Sox could use all, and the Red Sox will probably have to pay more than they want to to get any of them.
  21. Old Red
    I believe right now Bres is trying to to go the shortest, and least expensive route he possibly can.
  22. Old Red
    Duran will not bring a top of the rotation starter, and I don’t believe he is in their long range plans, so I think he’s more expendable then the rest.
  23. Old Red
    Let me say this about that. I doubt very much that the Red Sox have any plans of rotating 4 outfielders around anywhere.
  24. Old Red
    Opt-outs after each year. What a deal.
  25. Old Red
    Con Man is a step down from Alonso IMO, but comes at a cheaper price for a shorter period of time. I’m sure some will compare their stats for the next couple of years. I have No focus on where Gray ranks in the rotation, but only as one of the starters. 1-2 significant adds. Where have I heard that before? As I said before regarding Breggie that he could be better this year, but he also could be worse, so even the status quo is nowhere near a certainty if he is resigning.
