The whole situation stinks to high heaven. I was glad when Bloom got the boot, because I always thought he was way in over his head. If the rumor was true he had a chance to get rid of Sale, and his contract, and didn’t do it he should have been fired then. Now we get Breslow. Who knows who the zRed Sox would have picked had all the candidates out there been willing, but we all know that many wasn’t willing despite what Sam said that Boston is the place where everyone would want to be. Sad, but as we found out that wasn’t the case at all, and now Bres in the man ready, or Not.unfortunately it sounds like JH has set a budget, and Bres will really have to get created to make it work, so buckle up, and enjoy what could be a long, and bumpy ride.

I think once again misreading the room to start with like think the Yam Man would be closer to $200M than going over $300M, but if they’ve told agents they have to cut some payroll to make better offers that was bound to get out, so at this point who knows how this will all turn out.

Like I always say that just when you think you know the answers they change the question. TW should have been pinned down on what he exactly meant of going full throttle.
-
🙈🤭🤮.
-
Maybe someone should have asked TW what he meant by h going full throttle.
-
Like I said look it up if you really want to know by Jeff Passan July 2020. What did you really want the answer to be on why Mookie signed with the Dodgers, and in the big scheme of things what does it really matter to you?🤭🙈.
-
As usual looking for an I gotcha moment, and as using trying to make a mountain out of a molehill, and coming up short. If you don’t believe Mookie said what reasons he signed with LA then look it up. It’s all right there. Up up on old history again I see.
-
How does that matter that he hadn’t played a game with the Dodgers, or not.Those were his words, and said he was focused on winning, and bringing Championships back to LA. I guess Mookie must have seen enough since he didn’t sign until July 2020 to make that statement. I wouldn’t talk for him like you seem to be trying to do.
-
Betts said he loved everything about being with the Dodgers, and focused on winning rings, and championships. Next question. How about a harder one.
-
All it takes is 1, and he found it. Right now Boris is most likely having fun entertaining suitors for Monty, and Snell.
-
How it turned out for Bogey now it would have been a mistake, but I don’t think anyone two years ago were projecting $280M.
-
Nobody said Gray signed a one year deal, and I’m very well aware it was for a total of $75M. But if Sale’s $27M is taken off the books this year it’s also gone for good. Keep on thinking the Red Sox couldn’t have put the $27M to better use for next year, and beyond, but I beg to differ.
-
There are many different ways to look at the trade, and that is one, and yours is another, and mine is another.
-
It wouldn’t shock you to se them gear up for 2036.🙈
-
Grissom wasn’t in their plans, and Sale at $10M is a low risk.
-
For now, and if Sale doesn’t get replaced.
-
Is that all you got, or the best you can do to keep saying when Sale was on the Sox, which he isn’t anymore. Why make a mountain out of a molehill, or at least try to? We shall see if past history wins out, or a new beginning will create some new history will win out. Now is not the past for Sale, or the Braves.
-
Low risk. High reward for the Braves.
-
You can speculate on the trend, and you can act on the trend, and after all is said, and done it could be a big, win, win for the Braves.
-
0$.
-
It’s 100% speculation. Didn’t Gray sign for $25M?🙈 I wasn’t just talking about pitching either, and plus the FACT that more could have been added to that $27M if you really wanted Snell, or Monty. It’s completely lunacy to think $27M wouldn’t, or couldn’t be put to better use.🤭
-
That’s just pure speculation. If Bloom had gotten rid of Sale, and his contract when he had a chance the Red Sox would have been better for it.
-
I’ve already answered that twice. I wouldn’t have care if the Red Sox got anything back from the Braves if they would have taken all of Sales contract too. That $27M could have been used to get something better than Grissom, or better yet better pitching.
-
In my opinion except for the $17M payment. Yes!
-
Or you do know what could have been when it’s done for someone else. Look I was all for the deal, but just not the $17M payment. I’m not a Sale fan, and I said it was a big mistake the day DD gave him the extension. It’s all a big nothing made up out of nothing.
