    Once again talking about a fire sale before the season even starts. What’s the sense in even playing🙈?
  2. Old Red
    Oh no say it ain’t so.🙈
  3. Old Red
    Boris will milk it for as long as he can to get as much as he can.
  4. Old Red
    Maybe can’t find any takers?
  5. Old Red
    Moon isn’t to reliable, and was wrong on Strohman.
  6. Old Red
    The word is Monty wants to top Nola’s 7yr/$172, and Snell reportedly turned down 5yr/$150M from the Yankees, so where things end up, and with who will be interesting to see, and I don’t think there will be any bargains here. Someone will pay, but not JH.

    And they won’t show up at Winter Weekend to face the music.

    It wasn’t like they had their pick of the cream of the crop either when it came to Bres. I guess the rest of any potential candidates didn’t get Sam’s memo that Boston is the place that anyone would want to be.

    🙈🤭🙈.

    Cora is now the longest tenured coach/manager in Boston, but for how much longer.
  11. Old Red
    5yrs/$150M was the reported Yankees offer to Snell.
  12. Old Red
    Maybe they need more, because 4 doesn’t seem to be enough to make things better.
  13. Old Red
    I read a post from a fan today who said they can understand a last place finish, but they can’t understand not trying to fix it.
  14. Old Red
    If JH wants to cut payroll so bad maybe he should start with that doofus front office. I’m sure there is some weeding out that could be done there.
  15. Old Red
    Reported 5yrs/$150M.
  16. Old Red
    That may be the one thing that would get JH attention the most. He can hide from the boos.
  17. Old Red
    If they go, and reduce the payroll, and don’t replace it with other expenditures I have no answer.
  18. Old Red
    As much as it’s gonna cost to buy the team I don’t think reducing the payroll would be that big a deal, or sticking point.
  19. Old Red
    It’s not just how much you spend, but how you spend it. Sale ext. story, and Yoshida don’t look like good signings either.
  20. Old Red
    Quantity over quality at its best.
  21. Old Red
    Thank god the Red Sox are not heading towards Pittsburgh. They did win 2 more games than Pittsburgh did last year. Money well spent.
  22. Old Red
    👍👍👍.
  23. Old Red
    I don’t know why you keep bringing up JH spending habits from the past that has nothing to do with today, nor do any patterns. Times has changed big time the last 2-3 years, and salaries keep going up as well. Did anyone think Bogey would get $280M two years ago? Look at the estimates before FA started this year when the Yam Man got $100M more. It’s not like back in the day when the Yankees, and Red Sox were fighting over Tex. Now there is more owners involved, and bigger players then where JH wants to go, so what happened in the past with JH spending patterns really has no relevance today.
  24. Old Red
    He didn’t have as many other investments when he bought the team, but now he has a lot more, and the Red Sox isn’t as shiny a bauble anymore.
  25. Old Red
    I’m still surprised that if the Red Sox aren’t doing much else to improve the team this year that they spent that much on Gio. If he sucks, and the Sox suck again it will be a two year sticker.
