  1. I agree with all, and especially I don’t trust Bloom to do a Raffy trade.
  2. 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.
  3. Maybe, but I wouldn’t count on it, and the same with Seabold, who I believe is another stinker.
  4. I admitted I was wrong about that last year, but Stinkin Winkin, and Franchy was a gem of a Bloom trade.
  5. JH was booed at Fenway yesterday at the Hockey game. Owner of the enemy in his own ballpark. Well deserved.
  6. 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.
  7. I agree, but I think there is a better chance that he is the 2B than being DFA.
  8. Arroyo could be the Red Sox starting 2B this year, and you think he’s DFA’able?
  9. 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.
  10. 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?
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. You’re the only guy who can misread a room more than Bloom. Congrats on that.
  16. 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.
  17. Last offseason was what we were talking about, so was that when it happened? If not it doesn’t matter.
  18. Why did Bloom not make a second offer? I’m still scratching my head why he made the first so called offer, and for you to say Bloom didn’t make a second counter offer, because he didn’t think Boris would accept it then why did he make the first offer. Did Bloom think Boris would leap at that one? That’s the wow.
  19. I never said, or implied that you wanted Casas traded, but only that you mentioned that he might. Remember there were reports that the Red Sox were close to resigning Bogey too, which couldn’t have been further than the truth.
  20. You are really patting yourself on the back on a report?
  21. Of course Bloom, and Boris never came to an agreement. Once Bogey hit FA it was all over, and I think Bloom knew that, and knew he botched this up. So the best you can do is say Bloom didn’t do any countering, because he felt Boris wouldn’t accept it anyway? Wow!
  22. There has never been a report that I know of that Bloom made any other offer to Bogey last offseason except for the 1 yr ext. You have repeatedly said over, and over that the Red Sox did not want to meet Boris asking price yet you can’t say what the asking price is.
  23. I don’t think many are buying the lies though.
  24. Like I have said before that if I had a $ for every time you said that the Red Sox did not want to match Boris asking price I could have matched SD offer myself. There has never been a report of Boris asking for a price prior to last offseason, or anytime, before Bohey got to FA, so how do you know what that was that you keep repeating over, and over and that’s why Bogey wasn’t resigned. I know it fits your narrative, because to you Bloom just couldn’t be so bad, and in over his head, and misread the room, which to me is most likely the scenario.
