  1. It served NO purpose to go to arbitration.
  2. If someone can afford to buy the team I’m pretty sure they can afford to pay the payroll no matter what it is.
  3. I haven’t heard anyone, but you that wondered if the Red Sox signed Turner just to put him on the bench, and I’m pretty sure I won’t. You’ve got the floor all to yourself.
  4. Seems like the shoe is on the other foot now, and looks like a perfect fit.
  5. Anything is possible, but it wouldn’t have served any purpose not to get it done.
  6. Maybe you didn’t clarify, and you know what happens when that’s not done correctly.
  7. Devers agrees to $17.5M to avoid arbitration.
  8. That doesn’t surprise me at all considering you were asking if the Red Sox signed Turner just to put him on the bench.
  9. I agree with all, and especially I don’t trust Bloom to do a Raffy trade.
  10. Pivetta. I get what you are getting at, but Bloom didn’t give up anything in the trade. It’s the trades that he does give up something that doesn’t work out so well.
  11. Maybe, but I wouldn’t count on it, and the same with Seabold, who I believe is another stinker.
  12. I admitted I was wrong about that last year, but Stinkin Winkin, and Franchy was a gem of a Bloom trade.
  13. JH was booed at Fenway yesterday at the Hockey game. Owner of the enemy in his own ballpark. Well deserved.
  14. He’s cheap, and I don’t see any jumps being made of the ones you mentioned by the start of the season. Agree on not much trade value. Remember Arroyo was the platoon RF to start last year, so I wouldn’t put nothing past Bloom, and Cora.
  15. I agree, but I think there is a better chance that he is the 2B than being DFA.
  16. Arroyo could be the Red Sox starting 2B this year, and you think he’s DFA’able?
  17. My opinion is well known, but I just don’t see why put on the big dog, and pony show if they didn’t want him. Most Red Sox fans I believe were already pissed at the lowball offer last offseason, so I don’t see any good reason to prolong that, and I don’t think it fooled to many.
  18. I gave reasons the first time I made the Bloom misread the room some time ago. Why did Bloom make that first ridiculous offer last offseason. What did he expect would be the response, and the outcome?
  19. I have answered you that the wow came from you saying Bloom didn’t make a counter to his 1 yr ext last offseason, because Boris wouldn’t accept it anyway, so I guess Bloom wasn’t even needed, and that would go for Raffy too. No need to make any offers, because Raffy won’t accept it anyways.
  20. Totally misreading the room of what other publications are saying, and what other fans are saying, so by your analogy Bloom wasn’t needed at all.
  21. Once again you are wrong. I never said Bloom never made another offer to Bogey. I said by reports he never made an offer to Bogey except for the 1 yr extension LAST OFFSEASON. I repeat LAST OFFSEASON.
  22. You over analyze everything, and usually by doing so get it wrong. If Bloom wasn’t concerned about Boris rejecting the first offer why would he worry about Boris rejecting a counter off to that? That doesn’t make sense to me, but then again We’re talking about Bloom so maybe it does make sense to him.
  23. You’re the only guy who can misread a room more than Bloom. Congrats on that.
  24. Any offer the Red Sox made to Bogey after he hit FA was to little to late, and you know that. We were talking about last offseason when an offer like this should have been made.
