  1. And Cora has said 100 times we have to play better.
  2. Everybody still happy with their vote?
  3. For a good part of the year when they show Cora in the dugout he just had that deer in the headlights look. Then again maybe he just pissed at Bloom for giving him this group to manage.
  4. I don’t know if he knows how.
  5. Bringing Ort back up just to fill out the roster is ridiculous.
  6. He’s not a good OF, and he’s not a good hitter outside of AAA.
  7. Some on here was complaining that Renfroe would have been to expensive to keep this year, so then Bloom went out, and got someone more expensive, and for more years.
  8. Yes, but they are still paying Bradley, and he’s not on the team. The team could have still gone out, and spent more than $1.9M on anything if they wanted to no matter who was on the team.
  9. Barnes is not as good as he once was when he got his extension, but he is better than some.
  10. Money could have been better spent on JBJ, Story Land, and Paxton just to name a few. Bloom has had three years to work on all the expiring contracts, and to get Raffy signed, and has done nothing in that area. To not Blame Bloom for the current state of the team, and blame others is closing your eyes, and looking the other way, and think no one will notice. Wrong! Plenty notice.
  11. Franchy usually hits well when he first comes back up, but it fades away quickly. Keep him in the outfield where?
  12. Same ole spin, and blame that we’ve heard many times over. Blame DD, and the budget. Outside of a few on here no one is buying what the Moon is cooking. Bloom is in charge, and Bloom is to blame, and if you don’t believe that ask Shaugnessy, and the millions, and millions of Red Sox fans in Red Sox Nation.
  13. I think a complete house cleaning is in order.
  14. No one cares about that point when it’s over. That point would be to care if the Sox had a chance, but it’s over. Put a fork in them they’re Done!
  15. They already have been doing that with Franchy Strange Glove, and Duran the Butterfly Man
  16. 8 games back in the all important L column, but yes it is over, and has been pretty much since the trade deadline.
  17. You can add Whitlock to this bunch too, but that doesn’t offset all the trash Bloom has collected. Seen the standings lately?
  18. Maybe the American Pickers can find Bloom something along the way
  19. Per Alex Speier the Red Sox have given up 320 runs since the beginning of July. This is the result of what Bloom has assembled.This is just not dumpster diving, but some that had already been dumped out.
  20. Guys that stick like throwing spaghetti against the wall? Bloom’s been doing that for 2 years now.
  21. Yes I know, but the small sample size example. Could he do this all year? I want someone if needed that could pitch 3 out of 4 days. One inning saves with an occasional 4 out save is the ideal closer. Then you need a couple of set up guys, and a couple of long relief.
  22. Who’s pretending that Kelly, and Ort are permanent additions? I’ve seen enough of Ort if it’s only for 1 day. As 700 would say a ham, and egger.
  23. The Red Sox have a lot better chance going 2-12 than they do going 12-2. Come on man!
  24. I’m all for the move, but are you any better with Ort?
  25. The closer is still the closer, and I think having a good one is more important than most. I know the Red Sox tried to get through the postseason last year without one, but really how many good teams do you see without a good closer? When I said to label the rest of the BP anyway you want I was referring to the setup 6,7, and 8 innings guy. I know it’s good that Whitlock can go more than 1 inning, but then you loose him for another 2-3 days, which doesn’t make sense to me. I haven’t heard Cora use relief aces, so I’ll just keep the setup guys to describe them.
