  1. As Michael Felger has said many times that the Geeks, and Nerds have taken over sports, and I also understand that many, want, and need all the info they can get. I also understand that studies, and science in general may show that the #4 slot may get more RBI chances than the #2 slot, but all I care about is what’s happening with the Red Sox right now this year, and I don’t think that Raffy batting in the two hole with his 50 RBI is in the top 100 list of problems with the Red Sox that need changing even for the sake of science.
  2. Cora once again said he doesn’t want Raffy in the field, and he made that clear again today, which has a better chance of keeping him healthy, so it’s not as cut, and dry as you all make it out to be.
  3. Like I said you are just going by science, and studies in general instead of what’s actually happening, and what’s actually happening is Raffy currently has 50 RBI, which is 1 RBI behind the leader. No i don’t know how many RBI chances there have been for each slot so far, but it really wouldn’t matter in this discussion anyway since Raffy has been on base plenty with all his walks batting in the two hole along with his 50 RBI. I guess to you if it ain’t broke fix it anyway. Sounds kind of geeky, and nerdy to me all in the name of science.🙈🤭🤮
  4. Prospect one day, and suspect the next. Every day is a different day, which comes with highs, and lows. Are you happy with KC now?
  5. Are you talking about your science, and studies in general, or are you talking about the Red Sox THIS YEAR? I’m only talking about the Red Sox this year.🤭🙈
  6. Anthony has NO complaints. Brez has already explained that they don’t want to put the pressure on Anthony right now bringing him up in a losing situation. Brez The Prez.🤫
  7. Cora would have held that position on Story even if Bregman hadn’t been signed, and Raffy was the 3B IMO. It’s amazing how many things Raffy’s getting blamed for.
  8. Shaugnessy said yesterday he wasn’t going to going to have a talk with Cora. Cora also stated something to the likes that the Red Sox are solid enough at 1B with Sogard, and Toro, and Romy was coming back next week not to mention KC also gets a tryout. Also said he wants to keep Raffy healthy. Appears to me that Raffy won’t be donning a 1B glove anytime soon much to the chagrin of all of Devers Forevers loyal followers who have been offering all kinds of encouragement, and well wishes.👍
  9. So Devers is 2nd in all of MLB with 50 RBI, which is 1 RBI behind the leader all batting from the number 2 hole, and you want to move him to the 4 slot? Is he going to get more RBI chances batting 4th? That may make Moonsense, but nonsense to me. Besides the Red Sox have the new Johnny Bench batting 4th now. Gold Rush?🤭
  10. Cora has just said that Story is a SS, and won’t be changing positions.
  11. And what has Campbell done since? After his victory lap for starting off good he’s gone 9-75 in May with 23 K’s. Hopefully he comes out of it, but maybe he won’t. Sounds pretty suspect at the moment to me.
  12. Cora said he has not talked to Raffy about playing 1B. That is a fact. Cora said he wasn’t going to talk with Raffy about playing 1B that is also a fact. Now I heard Cora’s comments the other day, and he did NOT say he was having discussions with Raffy about it. Now if Cora comes out, and says I want Raffy to try 1B my stance would soften, but until that happens my stance will not change about Raffy, and you guys can keep regurgitating your words up, and keep resorting to name calling. That must leave a bad taste, but to each its own.
  13. The Red Sox haven’t been a successful team for 4 years in a row now!🤭🙈
  14. Performance no, but money yes.
  15. I agree, and I think Bregman going down has given Story a longer shelf life.
  16. Masa is still hanging around somewhere collecting his $18M, so i don’t think the Red Sox have got to the point of sending Story somewhere to collect his $50M+ still owed to him yet It is a problem though.
  17. Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. KC gets his audition at 1B. 🤫
  18. Mookie left, and then Bogey, which left Raffy all alone.
  19. Holiday got sent down by Baltimore when just like KC he was looking more suspect, and he’s turned out better for it. KC is looking real suspect right now especially after the victory lap some were taking after KC good start. Being suspect doesn’t build confidence either.
  20. The 2020 team wouldn’t have been any better with any manager past, or present.
  21. I still can’t believe with all the injuries Sale had pitching, and otherwise that he didn’t get hurt beating up that TV at Woo. Not very good mojo.
  22. JH would rather see Story Land stay open. He’s still owed $50M+.
  23. You guys crack me up with all your whining, and crying, bitching, and moaning, and droning on, and on, and on about Raffy. ILMAO every time you call Raffy, and his behavior names like it means something, and changes will be made. Raffy is enjoying life now as a DH, which is where you guys wanted him in the first place. If the whole situation bothers you guys that much like it apparently does then don’t watch. You won’t be missed.🤭😂🤮
  24. You hang right on to that thought.🤫
  25. Even though I’m far from a Devers Forevers guy I’ve have been siding with Raffy since day 1 of spring training. You’re comparing an Allstar like Raffy who’s been in the league for 9 years, and won a WS with a two year man that really hasn’t established himself yet? 🤭🙈
