  1. The Phillies now have 7 players this year making at least $20M.
  2. How many players have the Red Sox supposedly been listening to offers on?
  3. A $300M DH for the Boston Red Sox not to mention adding more payroll for the payroll strapped Sox. Wow! It was NEVER going to happen, and now it can’t happen at least for this year. WOW!🤭🙈🤭
  4. As you would say not even close to the same point.
  5. What’s shocking is that you still don’t get that the Red Sox are not going to do what you want them to do. Who is leaping to the FO defense? We’re just telling you they are not going to do what you want them to do. If that is coming to the defense of the FO in your mind then so be it, but that’s not what it is. It’s just reality.
  6. I agree with you on the D, but I’ve just accepted the fact that I don’t see anything changing anytime soon with the present makeup of the roster that the front office has put together, and whining, and crying about it isn’t going to change that either. SP, and D were the two things that had to be improved on for the club to get better, and so far I haven’t seen much improvement outside of a pitching coach, and a different IF instructor. Read into that anyway you want.
  7. Or the year before with Arroyo in RF, and Franchy at 1B, and don’t forget the Butterfly Man in CF who looked completely lost that year. They even tried to plug Flintstone Schwarber at 1B. You might not like RBI over D, but that’s not the way the Red Sox have gone about their business. Let’s not forget Kike at SS last year either.
  8. Get over it. NO ONE running the Red Sox it appears agrees with you. Like I said in an earlier post, and even before that I don’t believe the Red Sox worry about D like talksox does
  9. Wow JH at a ST game talking with Brez. Probably giving Brez his allowance.
  10. 100% agree on the RAF Man staying in CF.
  11. Hasn’t Cora said that E Valdez is the likely candidate to fill in at 2B?
  12. The funny part is you think you’re talking to me, but you’re really talking to Cora, and the Red Sox front office now, and the past four years that have created this bad D situation. It would be great if Raffy could play D like Lowell, or Beltre, but he can’t, and it would be nice if Casas could scoop em at 1B, like Boomer Scott, but so far he can’t, so they have to play the cards they have dealt themselves. I didn’t put the team together, and all the whining, and crying about it that you are doing isn’t going to change a thing. I NEVER said I like Devers as an option at 3B, so that’s FAKE news. I just keep saying that’s the way it is, and I don’t see it changing anytime soon. Go ask the Red Sox why even have a defense, because THEY are the ones responsible.
  13. What if it’s NO guy’s position? The answer is still NO. He’s signed with the Giants, and it’s not happening. Now, or before. Last year it was Gallo with you, and two years ago you was all in on the JBJ trade. Two of those didn’t happen, and the one that did shouldn’t have.🙈🤭
  14. We already had the same discussion on Chapman weeks ago, and the only thing that has changed is Chapman has now signed with someone else. What hasn’t changed is Raffy is entrenched at 3B, and Casas is entrenched at 1B for the immediate future, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.
  15. You keep thinking Chapman was ruled out. My thinking is he was not even thought about in the first place.
  16. Yea the pressure is really on Casas now.
  17. As was lots of others apparently.
  18. Casas gets his first action today.
  19. I’ll adventure to say that anytime since Brez took over the Red Sox even when he was sitting down talking a crap did he even ponder the idea of signing Chapman for the Red Sox, and making all the moves you suggested. If they can’t spend money on SP. they won’t be spending it on anything else.
  20. 🤭🙈👍👍👍
  21. The Red Sox now pretty much have a $100M DH. Devers at some point might move to 1B, but Not for the foreseeable future with Casas already there. You want to make Raffy a $300M DH? Once again Raffy, and Casas are set at their positions for the foreseeable future like it, or not. Like I’ve said before posters on here I think worry more about the Red Sox D than the Red Sox themselves warranted, or not.
  22. Keep talking about adding Chapman is Nothing more that a brain fart. Which part of Raffy, and Casas being kept at their positions for the foreseeable future don’t you understand? Just like another brain fart who keeps talkin about making Raffy the backup 1B. Not happening anytime soon. Even the contract that Chapman got is way to expensive for the big spenders that the Red Sox currently are.🙈🤭
  23. 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.
  24. They could trade Duran, but that would have NO bearing on adding Chapman to the Red Sox.🙈🤭🤮
  25. 3B: Raffy 150 GS 1B Casas 140 GS 3B Chapman 150 GS in another uniform. 🤭🙈
