    Maybe I’m late to the party on this, but I’m finding out that Yoshida is a Boris guy, and the fact that the signing happened so fast that Boris never does tells me Boris didn’t think he could get more money than this, and scooped up this deal real quick, and took the Red Sox to the cleaners along the way.

    Whatever Raffy ends up getting you know the Red Sox will not end up being the one paying it.
  3. Old Red
    That’s why I said the $100M man that the Red Sox paid more for than what they offered Bogey last offseason.
  4. Old Red
    Predictions are garbage. How did all the Red Sox batting predictions come out this past year? Worthless piece of technology, or anything else
  5. Old Red
    I think Blooms legacy was formed in the nerd room at Tampa with all his analytics sheets, which is where he should have stayed, and not out front as the main man trying to wheel, and deal.

    I think JH needs to make another appearance on the F&M show, and explain how Bogey who the Red Sox wanted back so bad that they only offered a one yr extension last off season. I don’t want to see anymore of the Kennedy, and Bloom comedy act anymore.
  7. Old Red
    They had better hope the $100M Man From Japan works out, or they’ll look even worse.
  8. Old Red
    A Dummy BOTCHER at that.

    Bloom, and Henry are both to blame. Failures the both of them. Bloom made the 1 yr offer. I repeat Bloom made the 1 year offer, and how incompetent did he look making it, and if that wasn’t bad enough he carried that charade right to the end with that dumb, dumbfounded look on his face at the airport in San Diego. What a piece of work he is.
  10. Old Red
    BLOOM THE BOTCHER. Enough said.
  11. Old Red
    At least he met Lester out in the parking lot to say goodbye.
  12. Old Red
    If the Red Sox really wanted Bogey then the negotiations were BOTCHED from last offseason with that slap in the face offer. Yes we all know Henry writes the checks, but it was Bloom that made that ridiculous offer that some on here that it warranted a counter offer. What a joke on all points. On the other if the Red Sox were all spin, and grin, which I believe they were from the Mouth Kennedy, and Bloom they were downright liars. Like Kennedy said at last years year end they were all failures, and that sums it up the best, and that includes now. FAILURES, and Bogey deserved better from the Red Sox, and has done more for Boston in his time there than Bloom will ever do, or imagine.

    Agree 100%. That offer last offseason to me was even worse than the Lester offer. Bloom wasn’t around then, but JH sure was. Bloom made the offer this time around, and is either stupid, or thinks Boras is, and either way it comes out as Bloom being stupid, and incompetent. I’m not against The Red Sox even closely matching San Diego’s offer, but how they handled Bogey before that still brings to the same opinion I’ve had all along that Bloom is in over his head.
  14. Old Red
    Very good summary.
  15. Old Red
    Yes, Yes, and Yes! I don’t like opt outs, and look how JD held the Red Sox hostage for a few years. Bogey at the very least should have been given somewhere near their final offer to him this offseason last offseason.
  16. Old Red
    ROTTEN apples to oranges.
  17. Old Red
    Talk about a big slap in the face the Red Sox spent more money on an unproven player from Japan than they offered Bogey last spring when the Red Sox wanted to add an extra year for $30M on to the $60M Bogey had left on his contract. $100M+ for an outsider who has never played ML baseball compared to all that Bogey had done in Boston. Those are just plain rotten apples Stinking to high heaven.
  18. Old Red
    How could Kennedy, and Bloom sit there, and do the spin, and grin, and say how much Bogey meant to the team, and how bad they wanted him back, and that was all after that fake offer last offseason that pissed Bogey off. Did they really think fans were going to buy into that BS. Just like with Mookie when they offered him $300M when they knew he was not going to take it the Red Sox waited to the last minute, and put their best offer on the table when they knew there were better offers out there, and even then if the last reported offer was true around $170M that wasn’t that could an offer anyway.
  19. Old Red
    Like I said earlier Judge is not a better player today than he was a year ago, and the Yankees botched letting Judge get to FA, and costing them lots of money just like the Red Sox botched the Bogey situation, and let him get to FA when according to Kennedy the mouthpiece of the Red Sox, and Bloom they wanted Bogey so bad. Actions proved otherwise.
  20. Old Red
    Wow $100M for someone who doesn’t strike out in Japan baseball, which is on a level of a little better than AAA ball here in the states.
  21. Old Red
    We don’t know if these prospects will pan out, and that starts with Casas, and Bello this year.
  22. Old Red
    I’m not so sure Henry will be.
  23. Old Red
    Lots of hype, and wishful thinking for someone coming from Japan, and all of the low low price of $100M. Being a upgrade of JBJ’s bat, and Duran is not saying much. More production would have probably come from Renfroe than this guy, and lots cheaper too, which the Red Sox could have spent the money saved on much needed starting pitching.
  24. Old Red
    We all know Henry controls the purse string, but Bloom made that ridiculous offer last offseason, and then provided the lip service on how bad the Red Sox wanted to keep Bogey. They are both guilty as charged.
  25. Old Red
    And Henry too.
