    Wouldn’t you want to know what the rest of the team is going to look like next year, before you offered Evol anything? And once again do you trust Bloom to build a team for next year, and beyond?
  2. Old Red
    I don’t have an answer for why the Sox can’t grow a starter on the farm? Well I guess you have to start for bad drafts. Ball, and Groome are two I can think of. Houck is a work in progress, but it’s a fact the Red Sox have had trouble in that area. You could even go back to Bard, and Barnes who were drafted as starters.

    What has the farm grown for starters in the last 5 years, and who says you have to trade for an ace??

    Moon, no one knows what the 2023 will even remotely look like, so no I would not offer him $20M/1 for 2023. Do you know what the team will look like next year, and do you trust Bloom to put it together?
  5. Old Red
    Wrong assumptions. I would not pay any pitcher $300M +, and I wasn’t basing Cole on 1 postseason appearance, but only to point out the Yankees have not won anything with Cole, and his many millions.
  6. Old Red
    No matter how you slice it, and dice it to me Evol is still not worth $20M+ a year. Someone will pay him, but I don’t believe the Red Sox.
  7. Old Red
    Cole crapped his pants in front of millions, and millions, and that’s what you paid millions, and millions for. Now that was hilarious.

    I’ll pass on them all, and Even ERod who I said I would have resigned at the time. Starting pitchers to me aren’t worth what they used to be, and if you can’t grow some on the farm, which the Red Sox are having trouble doing then it gets real expensive to go out, and get one, and then you have to be lucky to get a good one. I keep repeating that Evol is a career 62-66 record in other words a losing pitcher for his career that I don’t think is worth $20+M for any length of time.
  9. Old Red
    I’m going on record as saying Evol will not resign with the Red Sox.
  10. Old Red
    Probably would.
  11. Old Red
    Give me a list. It’s not what I think is worth it, but what Bloom thinks, and he sees like what Hill, and Wacha are doing for little money, and short time, and I just can’t see him going big on a 33 yr old pitcher with a career 62-66 record.
  12. Old Red
    Just to much of a big bill to me, and I think Bloom too. I like Evol, but the fact that he hasn’t been offered an extension yet like Bogey, and Raffy for what they were I think tells something.
  13. Old Red
    What was hilarious was Cole leaving Fenway early in the game last year in the playoffs. That’s what $300+M got you.
  14. Old Red
    The Yankees haven’t won anything with Cole, and if they do it will be because of the big bats, and not , because of Cole.
  15. Old Red
    But what does Bloom see with the Red Sox? His bargain basement starters like Hill, and Wacha are doing the job, and the high priced Sale is not. I don’t believe Evol will get a big extension with the Sox. The Yankees haven’t won anything with Cole, and won’t, because of him.
  16. Old Red
    To me Cole wasn’t worth it either.
  17. Old Red
    Quite a bit of money, and length for a pitcher with a career 62-66 WL record, and a career 4.15 ERA. Not to mention has only won in double figures(14, 11) twice.
  18. Old Red
    How is everyone enjoying, or not Millar in the booth?
  19. Old Red
    Bottom guys even hitting tonight.
  20. Old Red
    Go Bobby D.
  21. Old Red
    I like Nate, but he would have to win more games for me to want him give him a $20M whatever contract.
  22. Old Red
    The Sale extension made little sense at the time, and even less sense now. It was. Done with a year left on his contract, and TJ was predicted in the future, which turned into a right prediction, and the Sox have gotten very little out of him since. I’m not clamoring for any big extension for Evol either.
  23. Old Red
    Turned a corner? The Sox haven’t turned any corners until they can get ahead of the O’s. Nice win last night, but they are still a last place team.
  24. Old Red
    My HR Derby team is in first place thanks to Stanton, and Judge. Keep it going boys.
  25. Old Red
    Has Evol been offered a big contract extension like Bogey, and Raffy were?
