    Oh I get that part, but I’m not so sure he’s right for the rotation outside of the fact that the other options are to go back to Pivetta, or Kluber.
  2. Old Red
    Barnyards?
  3. Old Red
    Dr Jeckel, and Mr Hyde. One minute Kike would make an outstanding play, and the next minute he would throw the ball away.
  4. Old Red
    And now starting Crawford it’s like starting an opener, which puts even more of a workload on the BP.
  5. Old Red
    They don’t have an ace either.
  6. Old Red
    I agree this is the best way to go also. The Red Sox have done better with trades than with an expensive FA signing. Cole has worked out for the Yankees, but it seems other big money signings lately haven’t worked out.

    Yoshida/GOshida/NOshida. Take your pick.

    A good picture of him the other night when Valdez bobbled the ball, and shuffled the ball to 1B, which went over Casas head. The picture showed Casas leaning forward all stretched . out as the ball went over his head. Why would you lean, and stretch forward if the ball is going over your head. Anticipating the throw before it happened. Bad technique all the way around.
  9. Old Red
    That’s why I said yet. It’s bad though when he has had trouble with both the bat, and the glove. His footwork at 1B is terrible.
  10. Old Red
    The key word is IF translated into big league talent, which hasn’t happened yet with Casas.
  11. Old Red
    Yes they may have strengthened the system, but that still doesn’t mean, or guarantee anymore success for the big league club.
  12. Old Red
    Not one person has said to give up on anyone. All I’m saying is pump the brakes on counting on all these suspects until they actually produce in the big leagues.
  13. Old Red
    No one said that. They all should be given a chance or traded for someone who can help the big club. All I’m saying, and have been saying is that I’m not counting on any of them until they actually produce in a Red Sox uniform. Casas like I said is still a major suspect, and not a major league player who hasn’t so far lived up to his hype.
  14. Old Red
    So many are counting on the likes of Mayer, Rafaela, Casas etc who are nothing, but suspects at this point with the BIGGEST suspect at the moment being Casas. Most likely not all will work out.
  15. Old Red
    It’s not hard to grade Bloom on the last 4 years of the big club though,which is the most important.
  16. Old Red
    The Red Sox have 33 people in the analytics department. I repeat 33 people. What more do you want?
  17. Old Red
    Kike is on the bench tonight with Pablo at SS. Casas at DH, and Turner at 1B.
  18. Old Red
    All of Iggy’s faults don’t come close to all of Kike’s faults.
  19. Old Red
    You shouldn’t have to suck at the major league level to do it.
  20. Old Red
    Not spoiled at all. As we’ve seen this year again some teams that have spent mega bucks is not translating over to the playing field, and the standings. Better decisions with better results is what the fans want. The Red Sox FO said they all failed last year, which was one of the things they were actually honest about for how the season ended up.
  21. Old Red
    Or a Ron Guidry.
  22. Old Red
    Stop, before you even start. The Red Sox are a losing team. I repeat a losing team, who couldn’t beat a losing Cardinal team when they came into Boston, lost to a losing Cincinnati team when they came into Boston, and so far have lost to a losing Colorado team against the great Connor Seabold, so save the excuses of what division they are in, and have been in since the divisions are invented.
  23. Old Red
    I get all of that, but that had NOTHING to do with how many teams made the playoffs, and that has been my point all along, and now you finally admitted there were fewer teams that made the playoffs then. Finally!
  24. Old Red
    I would call Bob Gibson, a three time running champion A’s that the Red Sox had to knock off just to get to face the BIG Red Machine as legitimate reasons, and not excuses. At least back in those days.
  25. Old Red
    Yes it was impressive, but still they didn’t have to face a Bob Gibson, a three time running champion Oakland A’s, or the Big Red Machine. Beating them would have been impressive.
