  1. 21 year History yes, but not the here, and NOW.
  2. 👍👍👍👏.
  3. Visiting fans are also more, and more taking over Fenway Park on a regular basis now too.
  4. I’ve said all along before FA even started that Monty would help the Red Sox, but he isn’t worth the money. He is available, and there is a big need out there for starting pitching, and that why his value has gone up. He had a good stretch run, and postseason with Texas, and that helped his value more than before that happened. Evol had a good postseason in 2018, which helped him get his contract with the Red Sox.
  5. It was only bad if you thought you had to rebuild in the first place. Like I’ve repeatedly said that the core of the team should be Mookie, Bogey, and Raffy, and then adding to that core either by trades, FA, or the farm.
  6. I didn’t like the JBJ trade in the first place. I know you did, and was one of the few who did, so JBJ shouldn’t have been part of the problem.
  7. Arroyo in RF, and Franchy at 1B shouldn’t have been part of any plan in the first place.
  8. Trading a 96 RBI OF for JBJ who couldn’t hit, no backup plan for RF except Arroyo, no backup plan for 1B except for Franchy Strangeglove. In total cluster f—-. Those were some of Bloom’s master plans.
  9. Let’s not get carried away. The 2018 team with a 108 wins was a once in a lifetime record, so while dropping 24 games from that the following year wasn’t good there was bound to be a drop off anyway. Cora didn’t have the team ready to go especially the pitching staff, which he admitted in 2019 either. It wasn’t just Bloom looking for that 3rd option in the fork in the road at the deadline the last two years that prevented the Red Sox from the postseason either.
  10. Baltimore needs pitching like everyone else, but all they’ve done pretty much this offseason is add Kimbrel.
  11. Baltimore had many losing 90+, and 3 100 loss seasons to get to where they are today. Those 3 100 loss seasons have been since 2018.
  12. When does anyone over reach on here?🤭🙈
  13. Yes that could happen that they could get better, but other teams could get better as well, but I’m not going to write the season off before it even starts, or the postseason if somehow they manage a appearance before they even start either.
  14. If Nate was f’n good in 2021 fine.
  15. The Red Sox made a pretty good dent in 2021 without an ace.
  16. Who was talking about the last two years. I’m talking about 2024 hopefully.
  17. Even if it takes baby steps like a winning record, and a postseason appearance is better than the last two years
  18. Good points, but like I’ll repeat again at this point I think most fans will take just getting into the post season.
  19. As I stated before I think most fans would take just getting into the postseason, and take their chances. Your way is why even play the season at all?🙈🤭
  20. I still don’t like, and I don’t think it’s clever. My opinion, and I approve this message.
  21. I’m still surprised they spent that much on Gio.
  22. Most times you don’t bring someone in to a ballgame unless they are needed. You don’t know whomever you use as an opener on any given day would be needed in the first place.
  23. It may be your opinion, but who’s to say it’s the correct answer?
  24. How do you know that you would even need your #8 BP man in the game at all? Using him as an opener just doesn’t make sense to me. That’s the obvious difference to me.
