    Ok I’ll give you the entirety , but the majority of what I head on TV, Radio, and on here. I like Cora, and I think he’s a good manager for the most part, but I just don’t agree on resting players this early in the season when the team is floundering.
  2. Old Red
    We all understand your trust in Cora is the root of all this, and not so much looking out for Bogey’s best interest, but Red Sox Nation has spoken loud, and clear on this, and your opinion is in the minority, but even then it doesn’t mean you are wrong. Like I’ve said many times an opinion is just that, and no right, and wrong to it.

    Even Farrell won a WS.

    They made the playoffs by just 1 game last year. I repeat they made the playoffs by 1 game last year, so yes EVERY game counts, and if Bogey needs a rest so bad like you seem to think he does then I’m sure he would tell Cora, so yes 9-11 is better than 8-12.

    You said you were a solid supporter on another thread. Kind of a flip flopper.
  6. Old Red
    Another one of your I don’t agree with Cora, but I don’t think Cora is wrong. Seems like I’ve heard that before. Some kind of supporter.

    Complain, complain, complain is the name of the game, and I don’t care how many championships somebody has won, or not won. How many championships has the Hoodie won with the Pats, and he gets complained about all the time. He doesn’t walk on water, and neither does Cora. If you give Cora all the credit for getting to the sixth game of the ALCS last year then he should share blame for being 8-12.

    These are all veteran hitters on this team, so I don’t think who the hitting coach is would be a big reason for the lack of offense. The team has been listless since opening day, and I blame Cora for that. There was no mention of the hamstring being a reason for resting Bogey, and if that would be panicking for not resting him even if planned then so be it, but I wouldn’t call it that, and it is just Cora being Cora just like resting Raffy the day before. You have an opinion, I have an opinion, and all of Red Sox Nation has an opinion, but in the end it’s Cora’s choice.
  9. Old Red
    Cora has gotten a lot more roasted today off this board for resting Bogey today, and they are not all grumpy old men types. Red Sox Nation has been loud, and not happy about it.

    In a one run game today the teams, and league’s hottest hitter could have made the difference, but only getting one AB instead of four we will never know. I don’t expect anyone to not miss a game, but if healthy one does not need to rest 20 games into the season.
  11. Old Red
    Forget about 4 inning stints. I still say he should be the closer. How many times could he have been used since last weekend in Tampa? Instead he’s pitched just twice in wasted efforts to no fault of his own, and the Sox lost both games. If the team had a closer I would have a different opinion, but they don’t.
  12. Old Red
    You are right that there are all kinds of big money talent out there so far that is struggling big time to start the season.
  13. Old Red
    The RedSox deserved to lose this game today to a division opponent no less. On a day when JD couldn’t play, and Cora decided to rest the leagues hottest hitter when the team has been struggling to score as it is. We found out last year how important every game is in the standings whether in April, or October. One win decided making the post season last year, and finally to top it all off another wasted effort by Whitlock. Way to go Cora.
  14. Old Red
    Well said.

    That’s Texas problem. The Sox have enough problems of their own at the moment.
  17. Old Red
    Story land is still closed. Hope it opens soon.
  18. Old Red
    Well Bogey didn’t get a hit, but Cora didn’t want him running around anyways.
  19. Old Red
    There are not to many moves the Red Sox have made this off season that makes perfect sense you are right about that, and I agree.
  20. Old Red
    Hey Kike got his BA up to 200 today, so it looks a little better for a cleanup man. Way to go slugger.
  21. Old Red
    And they are the ones who need it most.
  22. Old Red
    John Henry has rabbit ears, so you you may be right.
  23. Old Red
    I don’t even think the Sox had a shot at signing Suzuki anyway.
  24. Old Red
    That team wasn’t ready to play, and this team came out of the gates pretty listless too.
  25. Old Red
    Is this another one of those Moon Statement times? I don’t agree with what Cora is doing, but I don’t think he’s wrong? Very astute.
