  1. Duran does get an occasional RBI despite his low BA.
  2. The Red Sox are in a playoff hunt now, and to me that’s no time for a tryout. I don’t see Duran losing any AB right now except for JJ against LHP, and certainly not to a KC.
  3. As always pay NO ATTENTION to the Man Behind The Curtain, and as always he’s a curse, and not a gift. Come on man I gave you credit years ago for renaming our Championship bowling team. 😂😭🤮
  4. I don’t see him being called up even if RAF Man, or Abreu got hurt especially with a playoff berth at stake.
  5. NOBODY was hyped more than the big three. Tolle, Early, and RAF Man certainly were nowhere close to even Casas with the hype that he got. I do agree on Witt though.
  6. I agree with one thing that many things said on here is conjecture, but there is a timeline that MVP laid out on when the Red Sox met with Alonso, when Alonso signed with Baltimore, and when the Red Sox landed Con Man. Those are facts. There is NOTHING out there that says the Red Sox had talked to Bloom prior to Alonso about the Con Man. That is conjecture.
  7. And where would you put him?
  8. All I did was point out that the plan that Bres ended up with was not the plan he wanted in the beginning, and as I said at the time we’ll have to see how it all works out. Of course you will analyze every letter of every word, and put your little spin on it like you did when you questioned a question mark. Besides I’ve already got a bowling shirt with the Bloom Bashers on it that has worked out quite well, and I don’t want to change now.
  9. Like I said before the winning streak most fans that I heard from, and heard wanted #12 out of town. Some of you guys crack me up how you hate the here, and now concept when things are going bad, but you hop all aboard when things are going good. The consistency of inconsistency.
  10. I agree, but KC was the newest, shiniest bauble, and I don’t think Cora was ever that high on Mayer.
  11. The Cards wanted to much? I think Bloom was pretty generous giving back money on both Gray, and Con Man, so I don’t buy any of that theory at all. Things have worked out for Bres pretty well for his pickups this offseason, but he’s no mastermind, and I think things worked out in spite of Bres, and not because of him. Swap in Alonso, and Bregman, and take out Con Man, Ranger, and DUBin, and what would you have now? Like I said in spite of Bres, and not, because of him.
  12. Who said the Con Man was a bad thing? Who? Con Man definitely has worked out.
  13. Good summation. Con Man came into play a couple of weeks after the Alonso offer was made.
  14. Really? You got proof of that??5 yr, and the money was set aside for Bregman, and that fell through the money, and 5 yrs went to Ranger instead. They wasn’t going to offer Alonso the same kind of money, and length too. Lowballing Alonso had nothing to do with Con Man at all except for the money, and length maybe. Once again this was all discussed in real time. You’re always trying to interject yourself, and always trying to play catch up.🙈👋
  15. It was widely reported that bringing Bregman back was the Red Sox top priority this past offseason. It was reported in length, and pretty much known by MOST people, so that sounds like a pretty good idea of what the plan was editor you I guess.🙈
