  1. No no! Weird used to be on at midnight with Eddie Driscoll playing Uncle Gory. That was WEIRD.😉
  2. Maximum value for Duran would have come better last offseason, and not this offseason.
  3. I don’t know which pitching suspect would be better, but Seattle’s is a switch pitcher.
  4. Seems like Donavan is drawing more interest every day with Seattle, and San Fran. The report is Seattle is willing to include top pitching suspect.
  5. I don’t know if I ever suggested a trade period. I have suggested signing FA like Jansen, who the Red Sox signed a year later, and I said I would have signed Alonso before the signings started taking place, but I’m not into the suggested trade business. I did suggest trading Duran last offseason when his value was highest, but no specific trade.
  6. While it’s true it started when I first come on here when I said I wouldn’t have hired Cora back, because of the cheating scandal, and MOOn analyzed wrong, and called me a hater, and yes he did apologize, but still continues to not only over analyze, but continues to get most analysis wrong.
  7. What fun would that be to suggest trades that actually happens when it’s so much easier to play make believe, which never happens. PRICELESS!🙈
  8. All the other teams, and that’s why they never happen despite what BTV accepts. Try the hat, because most likely you may get one that actually happens. Sure can’t get any worse.🤫
  9. Or more importantly never happened.👍👍👍
  10. Plus he was only 3-21 in Sept after coming back off the injured list, so not much of a mystery why Abreu didn’t play especially against Fried, and Rodon. Also Duran played most of the time, and Abreu didn’t pretty much for the past few years against LHP.
  11. As I’ve said before the Red Sox missed, and could of used Raffy’s bat.
  12. You do realize that if you drew names out of a hat you’d have just as much a chance of an actual trade happening as consulting BTV?🤓
  13. Good for Ref Man. He got $6.5M When he had never gotten more than $2.1M from the Red Sox, or anyone else.
  14. The only way JH gives Skubal any blank check is if there was no money left in the account.
  15. I agree it was not a so called overpay for Crochet. People use the so called overpay all the time, because they play with BTV. As I’ve said the last three offseason the Red Sox were not going to sign any high priced long term FA starter, and would have to trade some SUSPECTS to get one, which is what they did. OVERPAY, OVERPAY, OVERPAY.🤭
  16. He’s never suggested a trade that the other team would even consider let alone accepting. Just standard procedure.🤫
  17. Don’t forget to throw in Masa, and Hicks.🤓
  18. If the situation warrants it, and it ALWAYS does.
  19. At least we won’t have to hear about Ref Man anymore.👏
  20. I just don’t have room for big mounds of spaghetti than ran down the wall at my house.🤭
  21. The Red Sox have already said Contreras will have minimal times behind the plate, and I don’t think that means anywhere near 50 games. He is here to play mostly 1B, and DH some, and that makes the most sense since they didn’t give much of an effort to sign Alonso. I don’t really care what happens with KC rather in Boston, or somewhere else. If he turns out then great, but if not Meh.
  22. Well said, and I agree mostly. As I have recanted before I was NEVER a Devers Forevers guy as one, and others were on here, but I don’t see that Raffy did much of anything wrong at all. The FACTS as we know them Cora NEVER asked Raffy to play 1B, and said he wasn’t going to, and that is the key to me in forming my opinion. There are all kinds of guesses why Cora didn’t ask Raffy to play 1B, and mine has been Cora didn’t think Raffy would have been good at it. I still don’t see how it would have made the Red Sox better by putting a lesser hitter at DH.Some continue to rant, and rave about a bad teammate Raffy was, so that must make Cora a bad manager too for not doing it. Brez caused the whole mess to me, and was mostly to blame for how it turned out IMO.
  23. My bad, because I didn’t even know Rodon had surgery, so thanks for straightening me out.🤓
  24. It’s debatable if the Red Sox have a better rotation than the YANKEES, and I’m not even counting on Cole. Better depth yes.
  25. Projections, and predictions are all useless, and meaningless IMO, and if they weren’t rosters haven’t even been set yet.🤭
