    Not a regular first baseman trying to play the position, and ranging to far for a ball again. Then you have a rookie playing 2B who’s bounced around some, and now he’s trying to learn another position while in the mist of a downward batting trend. This is all on Brez, and Cora trying to fit square pegs in round holes.

    Good post Max. Casa May have been stinking up the joint at the time of his injury, but that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t have turned it around by now. This definitely is not on Raffy. I agree.
  3. Old Red
    And they tried to extend Casas too. Agree on RAF Man.
  4. Old Red
    I agree on Fatse. I don’t blame him, because the lumber goes in a deep slumber at times.
  5. Old Red
    The Red Sox definitely are not must watch TV. Sounds like self inflicted pain by doing so to me.😂

    Coaches may be fungible, but Cora, Bailey, Fatse, and Tek don’t have the team going in any positive direction anyway. Sometimes firing the manager does shake things up, and the team gets a jump start like Morgan magic. Daddy would not fire Cora though even though Cora is as lifeless as the team he leads.

    Let’s get some updated standings that Moon is famous for, but only can manage to do on a part time basis. Div games back in the loss column. 1. 10 GB 2. 3 GB 3. 2 GB Wildcard games back in the loss column 1. 6 GB 2. 5 GB (2 teams) 3. 3 GB (2 teams) 4. 3 teams 1-2 games back for the last spot. 4th place in the division 8 teams ahead of them for the wildcard in the loss column Nothing to worry about here folks, because Cora is on it, and says the team is competing well, and they’ve got to do better. RIGHT?

    This team has been a circus, and a clown show since the start of Spring Training with the Raffy saga that still carries on today especially with all the Devers Forevers loyal followers, and fans who’ve given Raffy nothing, but their full support. Even JH had to take some time out of his busy schedule to get involved, and lend his expertise. Masa got shipped off in exile to collect his $18M per year gift that Bloom gave him. Then you got the saga of the chosen ones Mayer, and Anthony on how to get them up to Boston.Mayer finally got freed from Woo, but only after an injury to Bregman, but meanwhile Brez is exhausting every effort to find a way for Anthony to get there. Outside of an injury Brez is still looking for that 3rd option in the fork in the road. A losing team with a loyal following, whom I applaud the diehards who actually watch this s*** show on a nightly basis.👏

    Not his bat, but Brez gave his job to Raffy.
  10. Old Red
    After the Detroit series he said they competed well. A participation trophy seems all they can get.
  11. Old Red
    Masa is out in exile collecting $18M, Story’s bat is out in exile collecting $24M, and yes Anthony is in exile in Woo. What a s*** show.
  12. Old Red
    Thank god the Red Sox scored 19 runs 5 games ago otherwise people wouldn’t think this team wasn’t any good. This team is lifeless, and listless led by Alex Cora who’s lifeless, and listless.🤭🙈🤮

    Not positive at all, but I think I have more to go on than you do. I’m saying I don’t think Raffy would be a good 1B, and I’ve been saying that for the last two years, and I think Cora agrees, so you can throw out obstinate players all you want. I disagree 100% that Cora would prefer Devers be willing to go to 1B. I’m going on what Cora has said, and done, or not done. He hasn’t talked to Raffy about it, and he said he wasn’t going to. JH showed in KC to talk with Raffy in my view to soothe things over, so Raffy wouldn’t ask for a trade, and not to talk to Raffy about 1B. JH came, and went, and there is still no movement from Raffy towards 1B except when he runs the bases. No bet, because your money wouldn’t be any good any.
  14. Old Red
    Legitimate gripe to some, but not to the people that matter. Raffy, Cora, and JH. Droning on about this is doing nothing more than listening to yourself talk.
  15. Old Red
    If if, if on Devers. IT AIN’T HAPPENING! No matter how many times you, and others complain about it, or even suggest it. Raffy, Cora, and JH have put that to bed.🤭🙈
  16. Old Red
    I don’t think he was forced on DD. Forced on Bloom, and Brez is a different story IMO.
  17. Old Red
    Starts at the top, but there is plenty of blame to go around. Ref Man said it best after the game yesterday.”We Suck right now”. Unfortunately it’s been 4 years in a row now.
  18. Old Red
    The Red Sox are lifeless, and listless, and so his Cora, but as Cora said two years ago when Bloom got axed I’m Safe.
  19. Old Red
    The Sox are now 6-6 in Crochet’s starts. Another wasted effort when Crochet has pitched.
  20. Old Red
    Everyone just assumes that RAF Man is going to be the odd man out, and either gets benched, moves to the IF, or is platooned, and that may be how it ends up. It sounds simple enough, but I think if the Red Sox were going to go that route they would have done it already.
  21. Old Red
    When Bregman comes back Mayer will most likely move to 2B if they go through with the KC experiment at 1B. Surprisingly I agree with the rest.🤫
  22. Old Red
    If the Red Sox are still floundering around the 500 mark come trade deadline Chapman could be good trade bait to like he’s been before.
  23. Old Red
    I get what you’re saying, but the difference is trading Abreu for some badly needed pitching, and replacing Abreu with Anthony may make the team better. Of course that would depend if there was any trade out there for Abreu in the first place that would be worth it to do it.
  24. Old Red
    Roster construction has been keeping Mayer, and Anthony down in Woo, because Brez doesn’t know how to manipulate the roster to get them to Boston. It took an injury to Bregman to get Mayer in Boston otherwise he’d still be a Woo with Anthony. Masa is still in exile collecting his $18M, because Raffy now has his spot at DH. Once again roster construction. Everyone has been clamoring for Anthony, and Mayer for some time, because they are deemed to be ready, but Brez it seems doesn’t know how to get them there. Call it what you want.
  25. Old Red
    No doubt the lineup is not as good without Bregman, and then it would depend what kind of production Anthony would give to offset Abreu. No doubt the Red Sox need some starting pitching to can go more than 5 innings to give the BP a break. With Bregman, and Abreu in the lineup the Red Sox have hovered around the 500 mark as it is.
