    I agree on most of the blame, but still Bloom has had 3 years to work on all of this. I like to be a fly on the wall to hear some of the conversations that have happened between Bloom, Kennedy, and JH on all of this.
  2. Old Red
    I think Bloom is at that damm third option in that fork in the road again when it comes to Raffy. Sign him, and pay maybe $100M more than last off season, which I’m sure JH doesn’t want to do. Trade him, and feel the raft of Red Sox fans for losing Bogey, and Raffy in the same offseason, or just let Raffy play out his last year in Boston, which I think will happen. Once again Bloom has had 3 years to work on this, and has chosen not to.

    The best Christmas present JH could give the Red Sox Nation right now would be to sell the team to someone who wants to play ball. JH usefulness has come, and gone. Thanks for the memories (4) championships, but what have you done for me since 2018? Losing 3 homegrown future HOF is unacceptable. Lumps of coal to the season ticket holders on the way out. What a way to go.
  4. Old Red
    We know JH used to listen to talk shows. I’m sure all his minions know what’s being said.

    If range is what you want yes. More topics are discussed on here than other places.

    To me it’s about do you want to live in a small town, or a big town? Do you want a small sample size, or a big sample size? Could be quite different. For myself I like to get as many different opinions I can get. Others not so much.

    A floor, and a ceiling would be nice, but at least a floor.
  8. Old Red
    At least just the only time he was caught.
  9. Old Red
    Except for the catcher well said. Not only were Bogey, and Raffy proven, but proven in Boston, and that’s not an easy task.
  10. Old Red
    I agree, and yes I’ll rip Bloom, but I just don’t believe they will do it. I’ve been saying for a year that Bloom has had 3 years to work on all this stuff, and I’ve been consistent that I would have traded Raffy last offseason if they wasn’t going to sign him.
  11. Old Red
    I agree it’s worst for the long run, but I can’t see them getting rid of Bogey, and Raffy at the same time.
  12. Old Red
    I still believe the Red Sox will ride out this season with Raffy, and deal with him, and what comes with it next offseason, and hope somehow he’ll help the team stay competitive, or better, and spread out the anger from Bogey to him, and not all at once next year.
  13. Old Red
    Even Sam Kennedy said winning a WS will appease the fans. not having the #1 system. The record of the Boston Red Sox I believe is what most fans cares about the most, and not whose on the 40 man, or if the farm ranking is better. It’s nice if those things are better, but to most not all that important.
  14. Old Red
    And that’s why I say prospects are just suspects until they produce in a Red Sox uniform, or are traded for someone who does.
  15. Old Red
    I get what you are saying, but Bloom is the lightning rod for the Red Sox, and while I may be critical of him I’m pretty mild compared to what’s being said in, and on different venues. I did praise Bloom, and said he did do a good job at the start of FA with the additions to the BP, so it hasn’t been all bad.
  16. Old Red
    I know some disagree, but I think my opinion is based on the angst of reality, and I don’t see anything getting better with this JH, and Bloom at the helm. Lord forbid Bloom try’s to get something good out of trading Raffy.
  17. Old Red
    I taking a wild guess here that it might just possibly be the evaluator.
  18. Old Red
    I agree, and like I’ve been saying for some time now that all Casas, Bello, and Mayer is are lots of promise at this point.
  19. Old Red
    The way some clubs were dishing out the big contracts I just don’t see Raffy doing anything now, and I don’t see JH opening his checkbook now for any kind of offer like that anyway.
  20. Old Red
    10/320 May get it done, but don’t you think at this point Devers is going to dip his feet in the FA waters?
  21. Old Red
    Let it be, let it be it’s just not for me. Let it Bloom, let it Bloom just brings more gloom, and doom.
  22. Old Red
    Smart guys in the room? Locking up Casas, and Bello are fine, but to little to late especially on Mookie, and Raffy. Lots of promise, but that’s all it is at this point that Casas, Bello, and Mayer ever get to the level of Mookie, and Raffy. That kind on talent doesn’t grow on trees.
  23. Old Red
    Liar, or looking for his infamous 3rd option in the fork in the road again?
  24. Old Red
    See once again NOBODY SAID anybody supports Bloom 100%, and you can’t find someone who did, and you are making things up again just like you said I said Bloom signed Frail. Wipe off your Brown Bloom nose, and let’s shut this down. Others are getting tired of the nonsense, and I don’t blame them.
  25. Old Red
    Like I keep saying you guys are going way to deep on this, but you are deflecting the fact that I NEVER SAID Bloom signed Frail. I already knew Bloom, had no choice, but to bring them back. You make it sound like you discovered some new info, and nobody new Pax exercised his option. Stop deflecting that there was NEVER a Bloom singed Sale post.All of this silliness on a wrong notion.
