That was known, but who said the Red Sox were not going over the tax line?
-
Who said there was a budget scenario? Bloom? Kennedy? JH?
-
On the other hand we could have Bogey at SS. Judge in RF DeGroom as our #1 SP.
-
That was my understanding, but I was just returning a comment that didn’t need to be said in the first place.
-
Didn’t you tell me to stop over analyzing first? Nobody has to tell anybody to stop over analyzing, but you can never resist. Everyone has a opinion on everything, and yes even different opinions like some of us think the BP is the #1 priority.
-
Everything you do is over analyzing. You have no clue what the budget will be, or anything else, and probably all the moves that Bloom makes will not come anything close to moves that you would make. The Red Sox have a good SS if they want to pay him, but they don’t have a good closer.
-
You are really taking it to the extreme with this kind of lineup. Henry has plenty of money to spend if he wants to, and not use your minor league examples. Might as well thrown in Franchy too.
-
I thought that year, but he wasn’t as lock down last year as he was the year before, so set up yes, but not sure about closer.
-
Not the Kimbrel who ended in Boston, and LA, but the younger version yes.
-
Nobody said anything about just needing a closer. Whitlock, and Houck to me should also be in the backend, and you can add Schreiber. Getting a closer, and one more good arm would be a good start.
-
That’s all wishing, and hoping that someone will take the job, and run with it, and just isn’t sound strategy to me.
-
I understand your first point like the Red Sox in 2013, but I just think any team is better off with a good, lock down, reliable closer.
-
You counting on next year working out like 2007, or 2013? Seems like a big risk to me. I don’t think Koji will pop up.
-
More like a plan B when you don’t have a reliable lockdown closer, which I believe the Red Sox have needed since last offseason.
-
Doesn’t sound like a Winning formula to me.
-
Liverpool has been put up for sale by JH. Should have a little more spending money if it goes through.
-
Understood, but except for the Clemson game home field hasn’t been any advantage this year. Still need a good QB.
-
8-4 wouldn’t deserve much else. Even tougher schedule next year adding Tenn to go with Clemson, and Ohio St. Kelly picked a good time to leave.
-
They still have So. Cal, which would move them up some more providing they get by Navy, and BC, but the Trojans will be tough to beat out there.
-
Diaz has agreed with Mets for $102M/5 yrs.
-
260 yds rushing by ND, and Clemson couldn’t do a thing about it.
-
Good win for ND, but they are not going anywhere untill they get a good QB, which they don’t have.
-
Peña as it has turned out was a pretty good 3rd round pick in 2018 from the U Of Maine.
-
Of course they have had people that make it work, and the jury is still out on Bloom to be able to do that.Three hundred loss seasons in a row in the early teens, and hitting on #1 picks were a big help.
-
The Red Sox had 20 wins in June, and 10 of those wins came against Oak, Calf, and Seattle. Oakland sucked, Calf was going through something like a 15 game losing streak, and Seattle was a below a 500 ball club at that time, so I guess it depends how you want to analyze this.
