Give me 1 thing I lied about, and remember you have lied about me on here, and even admitted it on here.if your honest you will admit it again.
-
I was talking about his lineups, trades, or signings.
-
You gave me an early Christmas present, so don’t take it back now. I know you think you are the pulse of Red Sox nation on here, and I watch, and listen to talk shows from Maine to Boston, and I read papers from Maine to Boston, so I know there is a big world out there with different opinions. Everyone is entitled to have an opinion, and not everyone is going to agree, but some don’t like it to have a different view on something. I listen to viewers from all walks of life, and form my own opinions, but differ greatly when I here over exaggerated views like Cora made less mistakes than any manager in baseball last year, Kike is the best CF the RedSox ever had, and Schwaber is so great he should be signed to a lifetime contract, which none of all the other all time great Red Sox players never got just to name a few. Like I said before I’m not into name calling, and like all the kind words I get, because it’s like another plan comes together.
-
You said it different than I did, but I think we pretty much agree that JH is more stingy with his money than he was just a few years ago.
-
Name the last time anything of his wishes, hopes, or predictions came true. I’m just saying.
-
Only time will tell.
-
Overtly question? Saying he’s for either one is overtly questioning something? Kind of a weak argument.
-
The problem is the Red Sox front office doesn’t have more information than all the other teams front offices have.
-
Bloom doesn’t have a fat checkbook in Boston, and that is why he was brought here, so does he really have much of a choice on what kind of deals he makes? Like I said before Theo, and Dombrowski couldn’t, and wouldn’t work like this. Bloom has to.
-
Pipe dreaming again is fine, but none of your pipe dreams ever come true.
-
You’re great at sitting on the fence, and waiting to see what happens, before you make a choice worrying it won’t be the right one. Be brave.
-
Paxton’s surgery was later than Sales, so it will probably be later if he comes back at all next year, so don’t count on any boost.
-
The rest of baseball going nutty I agree with, but isn’t looking more, and more that the Sox are just going to ride out next year with Bogey, and that will be his last year in Boston. I can’t see the Sox paying him anything close to $300M. Then just letting Raffy play out his last two years, and let him follow Bogey on the same path out of town, because I can’t see the Sox shelling out close to $400M for him either.
-
The great Heaney? Surperb Matz? How do you know how hard the Sox were going after these so called great arms? Do you what any of the offers were?
-
I don’t know why it took you so long to figure this out, but my read on this is that you might not get anything out of him next year at all, but if he gets healthy, and gives you 2 years of decent pitching after that it pretty much comes down to $35M for 2 years of pitching. Lots of ifs in there, but I would have rather had E Rod. Not to mention your also spending $8M more on Whack a.
-
These are added to your long list of things that won’t happen.
-
Negative in range? Renfroe is better on D than Schwaber. If you could get something out of Durran you wouldn’t have to worry about either one.
-
Kiermaier would not come cheap, and the Sox don’t have that much to trade that Tampa would want, and Tampa is just looking to get Kluber on the roster.
-
The Sox are not better on D with Schwaber playing anywhere.
-
Renfroe was a good value this year for $3M, and driving in 96 RBI, which was a career high by far, but I wouldn’t count on him doing it again at a higher cost too.
-
There you go changing your tune on Schwaber again. You really straddle that fence.
-
Yeah. You are quite the critic when it comes to Cora, and Bloom.
-
Maybe that’s why they haven’t spent much money.
-
You always take a risk when you offer, or sign a contract. The Sox knew that Sale was hurt, but signed him to a contract anyways, and he sat out for a year, and a half. Look how Pedroia’s contract ended up. There is always a risk.
-
How do you know they haven’t tried?
