    He needed two more starts to get to $25M.

    Gio back, and Whit probably thrown back into the rotation again. Then you’d have to hope Bello, Kut Man, and Houck can duplicate their being able to duplicate the amount of starts, and innings again next year. Sound like a plan coming together?
  3. Old Red
    It was reported when the Sale trade was made by the Atlanta HOBO, which has been mentioned more than once on here. Not new news.
  4. Old Red
    Like I said earlier that Atlanta were interested in Sale LAST year, so this wasn’t something new. I guess Brez was more easy to deal with, and was more generous with the $17M.
  5. Old Red
    So much for projections. Shed that payroll? I don’t call the Red Sox paying $17M out of $27.5M as really shedding payroll. Lost on Sale. Lost on Gio. Lost on Grissom. This was A total loss for the Red Sox in this situation.
  6. Old Red
    Especially not when the other team in this case the Red Sox are paying all his salary. A freebie this year for the Braves.
  7. Old Red
    Exactly, and the Red Sox paid for that lottery ticket this year. Like I said earlier the Red Sox were the ones who thought they knew something, and as it turned out they didn’t.
  8. Old Red
    Where does it say that the Braves knew something? It was more that the Red Sox thought they knew something, and obviously they didn’t" They were so sure of themselves they paid the Braves $17M, and also paid Gio $18M, so obviously they didn’t know anything there either except they knew Gio liked giving up the long ball. To say the Braves didn’t see any big risk in trading for Sale is a long way from saying they knew something. The Braves were interested in Sale the year before, so it wasn’t an all of a sudden realization the Braves had some inside info. NNN strikes again, and comes up empty.🙈🤭
  9. Old Red
    Gio was definitely a lot more pricey than the usual ones they get.
  10. Old Red
    Gio was just a HR Derby pitcher in 2023. No risk at all.🤭🙈

    All Sale needed was to get out of his bad Ju Ju in Boston. I said at the time of the trade I thought Sale would stay healthy, and have a good year with the Braves, which is a better team. Sale got hit with a batted ball, and fell off his bike, so it wasn’t arm related. I think the Braves didn’t see it as any kind of big risk at all especially when they got Brez to pay $17M of his contract. What a deal for the Braves, and it’s really not all that hard to figure all this out.
  12. Old Red
    A trade like Sale where the DBacks pay $17M, and the Red Sox give them a prospect.
  13. Old Red
    The Braves took Sale’s bike away from him in Atlanta. That was an easy one. Must of known something.
  14. Old Red
    Frail Sale to Cy Young Sale.
  15. Old Red
    I liked the Dodgers at an early age, because they went against the Yankees in the WS in the early 60’s, and have been a fan ever since. Liked the Cardinals too for the same reason,but not so much in 67.
  16. Old Red
    It’s only a sham if you buy into what the Red Sox spin, and grin machine spit out. Last year most bought into the Full Throttle comment, and were all excited about meeting with the Yam Man like the Red Sox were going to win a bidding war with all the big spenders. 🙈🤭
  17. Old Red
    Go Dodgers! Mookie needs another ring.
  18. Old Red
    Wow! 🤭🙈🤮
  19. Old Red
    Baseball ops is priming to do better for the 3rd year in a row, and the payroll is top secret to give the Red Sox a competitive edge. Sounds like full throttle to me. What else can you ask for?
  20. Old Red
    Wow! He waited until the last game of the season to not being able to go in an elimination game.🙈🤭
  21. Old Red
    Sale hasn’t pitched since the 19th, and the idea was to hold him out to an elimination game, and know its here.
  22. Old Red
    Like one fan said I can stand the Red Sox not being good, but I can’t stand the Red Sox not trying to get better. They have said the end goal is playing baseball in October, but haven’t done so for three years now.
  23. Old Red
    Every time you say you are not defending someone, which is often you are always defending someone.🙈🤭
  24. Old Red
    Sam says where the payroll goes is top secret.🤫
