    I’ll say again.🤭🙈

    You guys all crack me up with all this sell talk. You going to tell the Managers, coaches, and Players in a Red Sox uniform that some of the loser fans especially those who live far away from Boston that they don’t think you’re good enough, or worth it, so we’re just going to sell instead of improving the team. You going to tell all the season ticket holders, and the rest of the fanbase that pay top dollar to pack Fenway the same thing that some fans think the team isn’t good enough, or worth it to try improve the team, so we’re going to sell instead. LOSER ATTITUDE all the way around. If you’re not going to play to win then DON’T play at all. I not only say Buy, but NO ONE is untouchable.🤔

    Not in Portland, or in Maine for that matter.
  4. Old Red
    Prospect fatigue? Maybe, but the buzz around Portland compared to the past like with Casas, RAF Man, of course the big 3, and KC is nothing close.
  5. Old Red
    But who’s the reason?🤔
  6. Old Red
    I agree. If you’re going to get a big bat get it now. If this was a normal year where the league was strong most likely the Red Sox would be out of it by now, but its not, and this may be the weakest league I’ve ever seen, so I think it’s more wide open than it’s ever been, so anything could happen in the postseason.

    Without knowing what Cora thought about the whole situation, and not only what he actually did say to Raffy, and what Cora said to bresLOW, and even JH would be a good thing to know, and most likely would provide more answers.
  8. Old Red
    I’ve always thought Raffy playing 1B was a bad idea. As I’ve said all through the Raffy saga I went mostly on what Cora said, and what he didn’t, or did do. Having said that the things you listed could have been a possibility, or a combination, Raffy has a fragile ego, and thought he was a good 3B, so that wasn’t a good situation to start with.
  9. Old Red
    If Cora didn’t agree with Raffy going to 1B I can understand him not talking to Raffy about it, but if he did agree with Raffy going to 1B, and didn’t talk to him about it then that is definitely a bad look on Cora.
  10. Old Red
    As far as I know Cora has never answered why he didn’t talk to Raffy about playing 1B. There has been many theories why, and I would like to know myself.
  11. Old Red
    As I’ve said all along most of my opinion on the whole Raffy CF was based on what Cora said in interviews in real time, and what he did, or didn’t do. If Cora would have come out, and said I asked Raffy to play 1B I would have had a different opinion even though I thought Raffy playing 1B was a bad idea, and DH should have stayed his role.

    You can go back on the NESN archives, and look it up, and listen yourself.
  13. Old Red
    Wow! This is some of your worst work. You show up To the party late, and come totally unprepared. You didn’t know Cora said he hadn’t talked to Raffy about playing 1B, which was well documented. You didn’t know Cora said he wasn’t going to, which was well documented, and you didn’t know it was bresLOW who had the discussion with Raffy about playing 1B also well documented. What’s up with that? Come On Man.🙈🤭
  14. Old Red
    Did you see the interview when Cora said he hadn’t talked with Raffy about playing 1B, and when he was asked if he was going to he said NO? It was pretty well documented, and showed over, and over at the time. Obviously you don’t know my history with Cora on here, because I was called a CORA HATER. I went on that interview with Cora, which was a reality, and a fact. That’s what I went on. Now if Cora wasn’t telling the truth that’s another story, but Facts are Facts on what Cora said. On the other hand you have NO Facts that Cora did askRaffy to play 1B, so you’re just speculating to fit your narrative, which obviously is completely wrong since by all accounts it was bresLOW IN May of 2025 who asked Raffy to play 1B, which is also well documented. Bench coach???🙈
  15. Old Red
    I thought Mayer was supposed to be the next big thing at SS?
  16. Old Red
    I was just going by the Pawn Shop offer that always seems to be made in all of these suggested trades. I also don’t see the Red Sox picking up that kind of salary.
  17. Old Red
    Huh? Huh? Cora said in an interview on NESN last year as the Raffy saga was unfolding, and said he hadn’t talked to Raffy about playing 1B, and WASN’T going to, so your literally the manager isn’t so like obvious, and just the opposite. Nice try, but you failed again. As for the rest of the story it’s easy to come out now, and talk way after the fact, and should have been done at the time. Your like…..obvious?🤭🙈
  18. Old Red
    You are always trying to pawn off players to other teams like they would be so glad to get them. They Are Not. Does SF say no? They don’t even pick up the phone.🙈
  19. Old Red
    FLIPPER MOOn. The one who yelled Devers Forevers at the top of his lungs for years. The team decided?? bresLOW did, but Cora didn’t, and as I said before I’m pretty sure bresLOW thinks, and thought he knows best, but how he handled the whole situation, which we agreed it was 90% bresLOW- 5 Cora- 5 Raffy who was wrong.
  20. Old Red
    Huh? OMG! It was the same when Casas got to Woo, and the same when Casas got to Boston, and that’s why they tried to lock Casas long term. You can cling to Speier, but the Red Sox signed Raffy to a 3B contract. You make no sense at all.🤭
  21. Old Red
    Why would they do that when Casas while still down in Portland was deemed the 1B of the future. Come on NNN.🙈
  22. Old Red
    You nailed it that some on here had regurgitated for 3 yrs that Raffy should be moved to 1B, because he was the worst 3B in the league, but would be serviceable at 1B, and better than Casas.
  23. Old Red
    NNNNN. You accumulate more N everyday. How did you conjure up Raffy refused to play 1B, because he watched Arroyo play RF, and Franchy at 1B?Arroyo also tried to play 1B. That is why he told bresLOW to do his job, and go find a. regular 1B. You try to analyze, and you get it wrong every time. Masa didn’t need to play at all, and that’s why they shipped him to parts unknown with the ruse that he had to get his shoulder in shape to play the OF when he didn’t even weld a bat most of rehabbing, but was good enough to DH in ST. Once again on the WRONG side of Memphis.
  24. Old Red
    Well said, and agree 100%. 👍
  25. Old Red
    Good Bowler.
