  1. I was alright with the deal until I heard about the $17M.
  2. The past doesn’t necessarily predict the future just like hope, and hype doesn’t guarantee success. Yes paying Atlanta $17M to take Sale off their hands was not a $17M well spent.
  3. Yes that did, but the plan stayed the same.
  4. Big deal above, or below replacement.🤭
  5. Nice try? Wasn’t that still the plan? They had the big press release when the big 3 all got to WOO. Wasn’t bresLOW the one who gave the extensions to KC, and little A?. I don’t the the big plans changed when Bloom left.
  6. When that’s when the big 4 were there who were supposed to make everything AWESOME?🤔
  7. Do you really need that to really tell how a player is really playing?
  8. I don’t believe in WAR, and I don’t think you need any analytics to tell you what kind of year Duran had. The only question is whether, or not he’ll come back next year, or this is what he is now. Trade him, and find out.
  9. Predetermined playbooks on when to take a starting pitcher out, and go with someone not once, but twice who hasn’t pitched good at all for the last two weeks you deserved to loose.
  10. Well said. Both Alonso, and Schwaber were out there last, but the Red Sox didn’t want to spend the money. Schwaber probably was going back to Philly, but Alonso was definitely in play except the Red Sox decided to play hard ball, and lowball with him. P&P players got you into the postseason, but only for a failed cameo appearance.
  11. You think the Atlanta GM was shocked Boston was willing to throw in so much money?
  12. Did he roast the GM, or mercilessly roast the GM? Was it preposterous, or mercilessly preposterous. You crack me up that you think you have to come to the defense of a player, Manager, GM, or a owner like you were self elected to do so, and think you’re Deputy Dawg with a badge.🙈🤭
  13. ND plugging along underfeated, but not excited yet. At BYU in a couple of weeks, and then Miami a couple of weeks later will be the test on how good they really are.
  14. Good read it was, and as I posted the other day in JH first 7 years of ownership the Red Sox averaged 90 wins a year, and 2 WS among other things. The last 8 years the Red Sox have averaged 76 wins, and are now popping champagne corks after backing into the postseason in a very weak league. LOW bar all the way around.
  15. Well said. Sale even came on in relief the other day to get 4 outs after starting a couple of days earlier.
  16. Chad is just a grateful puppet.
  17. Who will be the best speaker? Sam, Chad, or Bres? Unfortunately I heard Tom, or JH will not be there, so we won’t he all the real poop scoop.
  18. Tomorrow at 1100 hours the Red SOX will hold their end of the year press conference. Sam has been working 24 hours a day on finishing up his speech?🤭🙈🤮
  19. Wow! More charges, and accusations. Seriously though thank you for all the kind words, and accolades. I’ll keep working hard, and keep coming up with names, and slogans that fit the situations. Tracy definitely deserves some recognition for his underwhelming performance in his brief cameo appearance during the postseason. Bad Chad, or maybe Spacey Tracey. We’ll see. As for little Anthony maybe the Red Sox should trade him to the Marlins. He’s already spent a lot of time in Florida this past season so that should have helped him get used to the weather. You know when the Red Sox sent him there wink, wink to just rehab. Anyway always nice chatting with you. Have a good day, and football you bet!🙃
  20. Spot on! The magic carpet ride came back to earth.
  21. Good post. I agree with some, but not much. Outside of the 27-3 run the Red Sox were not an exciting club, or even a good club. Yes Crochet was lost, but if you’re referring to little Anthony as the most important offensive player I strongly disagree there. He had plenty of hype, and expectations, but those don’t always pan out as this one didn’t. Agree on the playoffs were dreadful, but from all the fans I talked too, and heard on the airwaves most of pissed on how Tracy handled the pitching decisions, and don’t care who the game plan came from it was Tracy who made the actual moves being a puppet, or not. I said before the season the Red Sox took the cheaper way out, and we’d see how things would work out. bresLOW lowballed Alonso, and went to a cheaper option in Con Man. He lowballed Bregman to start with, and then negotiations fell apart from there, and went to a much cheaper option in DUBin. Then we get to the 5 inning $130M man who was turned to after Bregman bolted, which was cheaper, and didn’t even pitch 1 inning in the postseason. A defeating end to a torturous season I Agee. Playoffs? Did someone say playoffs?
