  1. Red Sox falling to 8-18 at not so friendly Fenway is total embarrASSment.🤭🙈🤮.
  2. Not a single person in the organization had all the suspects penciled into any plan? What’s your sources to make that comment? I bet you don’t have any. Changes obviously had to be made. Casas has been hurt multiple times. Teel got traded, and KC, because of his lackluster play is still stuck in limbo down in Woo after starting last season in Boston, but can’t make it back. NOman Anthony hasn’t hit much of anything, and did not live up to all his hype, and expectations so far, and now he’s hurt again. Mayer still seems to be all glove, and no bat so far, so I would say things have not gone, or worked out as the big master plan called for.
  3. I agree that it’s not time to sell, and if, and when it comes is who.
  4. Yes, and those 6 teams can be saying the same thing, and those 6 teams don’t have to play as well. 8 games under 500 is 8 games under 500, and just getting to 500 is a low bar in itself.
  5. Yes the Red Sox will pick up those 2 contracts no problem.🙈
  6. Like I keep saying being 8 games under 500 at this stage of the season in a league that is watered down and very weak shows how much they have really sucked.
  7. 8 games under 500 is a Big issue. 6 teams ahead of the Red Sox are also a BIG issue who can All win enough to stay ahead of the Red Sox.
  8. 7-48 in May. 5 RBI. He hit his 1 HR in April against that non pitcher.
  9. I agree, and to me being 8 games under 500 is the most telling, which the Red Sox are back to after narrowing it to 5 under after the KC series.
  10. A question on the airwaves today is how many have bought into the Illusion of Contention with the wildcard. Have you changed your mind from Friday morning to Monday morning?🤔
  11. If that wasn’t the plan, because all I heard the last three years is wait till that bumper crop from the farm gets up here. They’ve all come at one time, or another some have been injured like Casas some have flamed out real quick like KC, and NOman, and Mayer haven’t lived up to expectations around some injuries the last two years. What’s next?
  12. Someone has been beating the drums for Chapman for 3 years now. I don’t see anyway like you said the Red Sox are trading for an aging 3B with plenty of more time left on their contract. It’s just more uncooked spaghetti not sticking to a wall.
  13. The plan was for Casas, Mayer, Anthony, Teel, and KC, and RAF Man to all be in a Red Sox uniform leading the charge right now. Oops.
  14. The Geeks, and Nerds have completely taken over, and I don’t know if they ever will be put back in the bottle anytime soon. The Cleveland Cavaliers coach said as his team was down 3-0, and in the process of getting swept by the NY Knicks that analytically they were winning the series. 🤭🙈. That is Geeks, and Nerds as bad as it gets, and as Geeky, and Nerdy as it gets.
  15. To speculate that DD couldn’t have done a better job than Bloom with the same budget is just wishful thinking on your part that you have speculated many times, and of course if that happened it wouldn’t have made Bloom look so bad. Bloom was bad, but Bloom would have been bad no matter what IMO.
  16. The Portland SeaDogs theme song to a catchy tune is baseball the way it should be. On the other hand the Red Sox to the same tune is the way baseball shouldn’t be.
  17. Bloom was hired in 2019, and said things were going to be awesome in 2023, so he was on year 4.
  18. I think this sums things up pretty well. You are right NO ONE knows what DD would have done with a limited budget. Of course if you have a limited opinion that he would have not done so well that would make Bloom, and Breslow not look so bad.
  19. Yes, and the Phillies have been in the postseason the last 4 years, which I think most Red Sox fans will take.
  20. Thanks. I guess it depends what you need most. In the Red Sox case both.
  21. What does that amount to in Saves, HR, and RBI?
