  1. Not a dropped ball at all. The Red Sox already have a 1B, and a 3B who won’t be moving anywhere anytime soon. Another Bellinger contract too with 2 opt outs.
  2. They could trade Duran, but that would have NO bearing on adding Chapman to the Red Sox.🙈🤭🤮
  3. 3B: Raffy 150 GS 1B Casas 140 GS 3B Chapman 150 GS in another uniform. 🤭🙈
  4. Duran in lineup today for 1st time, and in LF with the RAF Man in CF, and Abreu in RF.
  5. Poor Monty once again being in the wrong place at the wrong time under some wrong circumstances. Seems to be a common theme. 🤭🙈
  6. Monty went 6-7 in 2021 for a 92 win Yankees team, which was one of those two years YOU mentioned.
  7. He’s scheduled to pitch Sat.
  8. Like these rankings are the gospel.
  9. If the so called great Monty would have been better in 2021 you know like win 7 games instead of 6 the Yankees would have beaten out the Red Sox.
  10. Once again not disputed, and well known.
  11. NO ONE has to respond at all. Just, because a poster pointed out that the most wins Montgomery has ever muster in a year was ten, and he’d only did it one time does not mean it should cause such a stir that’s been going on for two days now over, and over, and over again. You’re the one trying to tell someone else that it’s meaningless. Meaningless to you certainly doesn’t mean it’s meaningless to everyone as it’s been proven time, and time again on here. One opinion doesn’t suit one for all, and all for one, and that’s a fact. I certainly don’t comment on everything I disagree with, so maybe you should do the same. Put your bells, and whistles away. They don’t work.
  12. That’s an easy one. That’s the best in wins he’s ever done, and he’s only done it ONE time.🤭🙈🤭
  13. Monty has just had so much bad luck, and run into bad circumstances not to mention playing on all those bad bad Yankee teams. It’s not all his fault.
  14. 100% agreement. 2 days of Monty part 2, and no one has solved a thing, or changed their mind, but of course just to say we agree to disagree would be strictly forbidden, or prohibited on here, because of course to the sum of the few on talksox there can only be one opinion.
  15. No one is disputing any of these facts you are throwing out there, and I will acknowledge that starting pitching isn’t what it used to be. Like I have said more than once that starting pitchers used to have as big a name as the sluggers. Sandy, and Gibby vs Willie, and Hank. Monty isn’t even close, or in the same breath as the basest pitchers in the game has ever seen, but you would think will all the airtime he’s gotten on here that he was.
  16. For all DD’s winning he no doubt has made some bad decisions before like resigning Sale, which was a MAJOR cluster of a FU, so to say DD did something, so it must be right I would say is a BAD example.🙈🤭
  17. Both have had double digit wins 5 times. Nola was resigned. Maybe Monty is just a late bloomer, and will do it again, but then again maybe he won’t.🙈🤭🤫
  18. I know, and have never disputed all the things that go into a pitcher’s W-L record, and it depends on how deep you want to dig. Like I’ve said before I notice W-L record, and ERA first, and then look at hits, K’s, BB per innings, and how many HR they give up.
  19. It’s not crazy at all when it comes to a starting pitchers W-L record. There are so many different things that goes into it. It could be just as simple as one starter on a staff always seems to get more runs for him when he pitches, and one always pitches when the team scores less runs. If you sit down, and count the number of things that can go into a pitchers W-L record the number is way up there, so you would have to interpret many things unless you are a Pedro type, and even then there could be a few circumstances.
  20. Good try? I’m not trying anything. I said all this before FA even started months ago. Why would you sign Monty to a lot more money than Wacha if you could get the same, or better results from Wacha for less money? I wouldn’t.
  21. Like I said before FA even started. There is a big need for starting pitching, and pitchers will get paid not, because they are all that good, but because they are available. I mentioned when Gray got signed he had never been paid more than $10M before, and now he’s getting $25M. Not, because he is better at 34, but, because three is a need, and he available.
  22. Like I keep saying the poor guy is just unlucky, and in the wrong place at the wrong time except for the end of last year to win more than 10 games. Maybe one of these years before his career is over he may get lucky to win more games.
  23. It’s a matter of an opinion on what is an example that supports anything, or explanations either. I’m also not disagreeing anything, so there wouldn’t be a counter argument. You on the other hand are making all the arguments that doesn’t change a thing. A 20 game winner, or a 10 game winner all means something. It depends on how deep you want to dig into it.
  24. That’s, because I’m a talksox hater, basher, and DISDAINER.
  25. You are doing the same thing, and have kept this going for 2 days now. The big difference is I’m not saying your opinion is wrong where you on the other hand are telling me I’m wrong. My opinion is what it is, and I don’t give a s*** rather you like it, or not. What matters to me is all I care about, and not what matters to you, or anyone else. You on the other hand can’t say that, and think you have to critique everything, and everyone. I’ve said before that to me BTV is a useless little toy, but I don’t comment on it every time it is referenced. Like I’ve said many times if I mention certain things all kinds of bells, and whistles goes off, and it’s not just talked about, but downed every time. It hasn’t, and won’t ever change a thing.
