  1. According to JH it was LL who ran the Red Sox. At least with Theo on board the Red Sox have a real baseball guy unlike Sam, but that doesn’t mean that JH will take any advice from him.
  2. I don’t think Burnes would get to what amounts to a 10yr contract worth that amount of money.
  3. I made a peace offering two years ago to buy Moon a Sea Dog Biscuit at a Sea Dogs game, which i thought was a more than generous offer.
  4. Something had to happen especially when Bloom got fired before the season ended. It had to be pretty good, because Bloom took a lot of the heat away from Henry.
  5. If he does well in Baltimore, and the team does well that may change his mind to an extension if a good one is offered.
  6. Their 3rd in line SS would have been worth it to me. He’s also 25, and not 19.
  7. After, or before the trade?
  8. Everyone is giving the O’s an A for the trade. They gave up a SS who is 3rd in line behind a better prospect, and a rookie of the year SS who’s ahead of them both. You look at it however you you want to, but to me it’s a win, win for the O’s. Extension next will even make it better.
  9. Why is everyone speculating on here that Burnes will only be in Baltimore for a year, and not get extended?
  10. Embarrassed? He’s making money, and Fenway is getting filled even if it’s from a lot of the visiting fans teams, which is becoming more, and more.
  11. And a great move it was for the here, and now. They gave up a SS who wasn’t even their top rated SS, and they have a good young SS with the big club as well. Win, win for the O’s and who says they won’t extend Burnes? A for the O’s is all the grades I saw.
  12. The big thing is too is that Baltimore didn’t really have to give up that much to get Burns if only for a year.
  13. Lots of levers to pushn, and pull.
  14. What a difference a new owner makes.Think a new one for the Red Sox would do the same?
  15. Great trade for the O’s, and they didn’t even have to give up their best SS prospect to get a good pitcher. Looks like the O’s are getting an A for the trade while the Brewers are getting a C-B.
  16. Great pickup for the O’s, and even if it’s just for the here, and now. New owners might do some spending, and not hold the team back like the old owner did.
  17. But I thought Lester, and JH were buddies. I didn’t hear that JH said goodbye to anyone else out in the parking lot.
  18. The John Lester contract would have been fine for half the price.
  19. I’ll admit that is to many, and to many tit for tat ones, but I was told for over 2 years that I was such a bad fan, because I criticized Bloom, and the Red Sox so much, and some called it bashing, but look at all the bashing that’s gone on by many on here the last few months, which is worse than what I had been saying about the Red Sox. Double standard maybe. I have said many times that I like to get as many opinions from as many different places as I can get, and yes god forbid sports talk shows.
  20. Nobody says anyone has to engage with with anyone at anytime, so to me if if the only way you can refrain from responding is to be put on ignore is go for it. I read what everyone says myself,and it always seems people who put me on ignore seem to respond if through other people. Like I’ve said before I’ve been on message boards, and forums for many many years not to mention local talk shows, and I’ve never had any such trouble at all. Never been called a hater, a basher, or a DISDAINER to name three. I have showed many people at PF, and the BA so many volleys back, and forth on here, and other people just shake their head in disbelief on what is said, and analyzed, because of it. LMAO doesn’t even come close to the responses I get, so that’s why I don’t put much stock to the responses I get. It’s like I talk with the grownups at the club, and come back home get on here, and I’m at the kiddie tables. I’m sure some on here have been like they are long before I come on here.
  21. By mentioning box scores, or an eye test sets off bells, and whistles, or saying i wouldn’t have rehired Cora, because of the cheating scandal, and I’m called a hater is being a troll then I’m guilty. If that’s bothering people then I’m guilty, and proud of it. Congrats to you too, because you just added nothing to this subject.
  22. You seem to be the only one that cares about this stuff. Most fans that I know, and hear care about the WL record of the big league team. I frankly could care less if Bloom had to replace the whole 40 man plus overhaul the entire farm system.
  23. Bailey is going to coach up the pitching staff, and the infield D is going to get coached up. What can go wrong?
  24. You do all this worrying about discrediting when you do it yourself. As for Moon I’m just calling out a PAF. Got any old Sporting News (newspapers) that I can check the box scores in? Those were my favorites.
