Wow! Another N for you. As if people always stick to the title thread. C’mon man!
-
NOBODY said it had anything to do with Grissom.🤭🙈
-
6 years of control are big to some on here even if they can’t play. It’s way to early to know if Grissom can play, or not, but it’s definitely a bad start.
-
Most have.
-
Exactly, but that doesn’t matter to some on here. As I’ve said many times you don’t give up on years with the hope that things will get better somewhere down the road, because that just might not happen.
-
Yes it is, and rightfully so as far as I’m concerned, and none of this well the team may be better in 2028. Right now vs 2028 I would say right now would win out.
-
The Boston way has been that way for years, so it’s nothing new, and isn’t going to change anytime soon. Gus is getting another day off today, so he must need some more rest.
-
Most of that OPS comes from early in the season when you bought in, and wanted to extend him. He’s 24 for his last 49. K’s that is. It doesn’t matter who they give up for him it’s what he’s doing on the field at the here, and now.
-
And have stayed pretty much healthy so far.
-
Pretty SUSPECT isn’t it?
-
As usual when Moon gets giddy about something like the team, or a player it usually turns s***** for the team, or the player. Just like Devers Forevers when he’s hitting HR, and Never Devers when he’s leaving all kinds of runners on base. Point. Counter point.

5/24 Brewers @ SOX 7:10PM ET

Crawford is human.🙈🤭🤫 -
Like it, or not he’s getting judged, and treated the Boston way. Like I’ve mentioned before how a new comer gets off to a start in Boston is huge, and even then sometimes what have you done for me lately wins out. O’Neil got off to a great start, but he’s been struggling for a while now, and now is not talked about to favorably. Like I’ve said many times on here a prospect/suspect is useless until they are producing in a Red Sox uniform, or traded for someone who does. At the moment Grissom is pretty much useless. Will he get better most likely, and time will tell.
-
nnnnn. 🤭🙈🤮
-
And one poster on here wanted to lock him up already.
-
I bet you are the ONLY one in Red Sox Nation that says Grissom is just unlucky.
-
I’ll let you answer that one. That’s why you have all those N’s in front of your name.
-
Most fans I believe ONLY see one thing, and that his BA, and most don’t give a rat’s ass about his line drive rate, or BABIP, or anything else.🙈🤭
-
Notin says Grissom is just unlucky to have his BA that low. Personally I think he’s lucky to have a BA as high as it is.

5/22 SOX @ Rays 6:50PM ET
Old Red replied to SPLENDIDSPLINTER's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
Nice win for the C’s last night, and up 2-0 on Indiana. Win 1 in Indy, and come back, and close out in Boston. Let’s go C’s! -
I’ve Never heard anyone else comparing Houck, and Koufax in the same breath before, so this is a first.🤫
-
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
-
Houck would be neck, and neck with Koufax if he pitched back in the 60’s? Wow! All these things you mentioned here are just assumptions on what anyone would do, or wouldn’t do. Koufax would shut this 2024 Red Sox lineup down better than Sale recently did if he was pitching today, and the same with Drysdale, Gibson, or Juan M.🤭🙈
-
Do you honestly think the Rays are as good a team as what they’ve been the last 4-5 years? They Are Not. Their pitching is nowhere as good, and hitting isn’t either. If you have a different opinion, and it makes you feel better that it makes the Red Sox looks better then think that way. Some teams like Tampa, and Toronto have dropped off. The Red Sox May be better, but then again maybe Toronto, and Tampa have come back down to their level. Take your pick.
-
Yes it was good that the Red Sox swept Tampa, and are two games over 500, but this is still the same team that lost 2-3 games in St. Louis, and went to Tampa under 500.The ebb, and flow so far this season has been win some, lose some, win some, and lose some, and just like the game threads that can go gloom, and doom in 1 pitch the game to game is the same thing. Like I’ve been saying baseball is down, and Tampa is certainly not the same team pitching, or batting wise they have been the last 4-5 years, so yes this year the Red Sox have a chance, which is better than no chance. Heart,and soul, and grit i wouldn’t go that far. There is many rams out there just like the Red Sox, and remember the bar was set so low for the RedvSox before the season even started that two games over 500 looks a lot better to some than t really is.
