  1. Outside of the 1 year ext what did they offer him before, and after the barn door was open, and Bogey got to FA when once again it was lowball, and just done for show.
  2. When someone says the Red Sox just didn’t want Bogey at any price when I’ve constantly said Bloom misread the room I would call that saying otherwise.
  3. Kimmi was one who said he was being a bad teammate, and others agreed.
  4. Once again was Bogey ever asked to move off SS by the Red Sox?
  5. I believe Bloom Botched it, and we all watched it.
  6. I agree, but I get the impression that some believe that Bogey was asked already by the Red Sox to move off SS, and I don’t believe it was the case. Some on here even called him a bad teammate. He told the press he was a SS, and didn’t want to move, but he was going for a new contract that a SS would get more money.
  7. And like I said the shift went up by 50,000 in a ten year period, because of analytics.
  8. No different from the way the game was played for over 100 years until analytics took over, and increased the shift by 50,000 in a ten year period.
  9. Was Bogey ever asked to move off SS by anyone from the Red Sox?
  10. Casas isn’t going anywhere, and foolish to speculate he is anytime soon.
  11. If it would have been me we wouldn’t being having this conversation now, because Bogey would be the SS. Yes finishing out of the cellar, and just getting back to 500 is a big question.
  12. We obviously disagree, but I’m sticking to Story being the Starting SS this year. I’m not saying that’s what should be done, but that it will be done. Arroyo is a cheap option at 2B injury prone, or not.
  13. So you are saying if Story starts at SS this year then Bloom, and Cora are idiots, because that’s what I think is going to happen? Like I said Story wasn’t signed for that contract to be a 2B.
  14. Bloom knew, or should have known what he was getting into in coming to Boston, and if he didn’t he deserves to be hung out to dry, but he’s not alone.
  15. A big market team like the Boston Red Sox should NEVER have to have anything close to a five year plan, and should be a winning competitive team every year. This is total failure from JH on down.
  16. I don’t care about his wear, and tear. He was signed to play SS, and if he can’t handle it physically he shouldn’t have been signed in the first place. Like I said he won’t be playing in short RF this year, so let him cover the ground at SS. Arroyo at 2B sounds like a chance Bloom is willing to take.Story is the perfect fit at SS.
  17. If Bloom, and JH listened to the Crybaby fans Mookie, Bogey, and Raffy would have been all locked up by the Sox. My theory is just Bloom being Bloom, and once again not a good thing.
  18. You act so surprised, and didn’t see it coming that Bloom could do such a thing. Me I’m not surprised Bloom did this at all. Just another example of Bloom being in over his head.
  19. Nailed it. I agree 100%. Kennedy, and Bloom are not that good at acting. Can we get a facial expression expert?
  20. Story was signed to be a SS, so put him out there, and let him earn his money. He can’t play short RF at second anymore anyways. If they don’t want Arroyo at 2B then Iggy would be a fit there.
  21. Rich Hill to the Pirates for 1yr/$8M. Good for him that he gets to pitch another year, but going to Pittsburg not so good.
  22. I agree 100% that both Bloom, and Henry are to blame. Bloom read the room so bad that when it came time to pay Henry didn’t want to pay that much. Bloom reading the room so bad to me is the bigger issue than Henry not wanting to pay where the money had gone up to.
  23. I think JH, Bloom, and Kennedy were just trolling Red Sox fans about really wanting Bogey back. It worked on some. Correa is now having contract issues with the Mets, and if it falls through maybe Bloom is ready to pounce, and scoop him up.
  24. It is sad that you just hang out in your little bubble. Like I said I have not heard anywhere else that the sad fate of the Red Sox today has been caused by Richards, and Perez courtesy of Bloom. What a real shallow analysis that is. Of course you’d have to have that to fit your narrative.
  25. I actually thought you were better than that to think Perez, and Richards should be on a top 3 list of the many of Blooms Blunders, but you’ve proven beyond no doubt I was wrong, and now I know why you protect Bloom so much, because you don’t have much of a clue on all the things he’s done wrong, so your not coming from the same place that all of Blooms critics are coming from. Sad, but true.
