  1. As usual you analyze, and analyze wrong. I’ve given my opinion many times over that Suspects like Campbell is useless to me until they produce in a Red Sox uniform, or are traded for someone who does. You don’t like that opinion , but that’s the way it is, so you see things another way, and you tell me that it bothers me. It doesn’t, but you can’t say the same that my opinion doesn’t bother you. You said before I disagree with you, but I agreed with MVP first, but you disagreed with both of us. Like I’ve said many times I’m not a cheerleader, and wave Pom Poms like you do Mayer for Mayor, and don’t wake up a sleeping Giant when Bregman hit a HR, and there’s nothing wrong with that, or how I do it either.
  2. I’m not doing the hype, hype, hype. Being the Man behind the curtain you certainly know the Strawman.
  3. Yes, I go on what Cora has said previously, and what he just said when he said Raffy wouldn’t play Wednesday, and needed more time. Are you saying I shouldn’t listen to Cora? That’s what I go on. Where do you get your info from, or are you just speculating again?
  4. What does his MLB stats say? His hype hasn’t preceded him? I love watching Minor League baseball, but ONLY MLB stats count to me.
  5. What did Cora say about Raffy at the start of ST when he described about how Raffy was behind in his conditioning, and about Tampa. What has Cora said since? Where did he say Raffy was hurt, or hurting. Did Raffy tell him he was hurt, or did Raffy say he needed more time in the cage, or facing live BP? I’m disagreeing. Listen to all the live interviews with Cora, and read all the comments. That’s what I go on.
  6. From my understanding Raffy is not hurt, or hurting, but just feels he not ready to see live action yet.
  7. I know what he did last year, but he hasn’t made the 26, or appeared in a MLB game yet. I’m just waiting to see him perform in the Big Show, and produces before I anoint him anything. I’m not questioning anything except seeing it at the MLB level
  8. Disagree 100%. Bregman 2B, Raffy 3B, GOshida DH. Ref would never be FT unless the whole OF was wiped out by injuries. Raffy could even suck as a DH.
  9. KC. The Man, The Myth, and the Legend before he even appears in his first MLB game. You’ve also already penciled in the RAF Man as a 246. Opinion, speculation, prediction, or whatever that the RAF Man can’t do better? 🙈🤭🤫
  10. I get all that, and I’m not even talking about the RAF Man in ST. I’m just saying that with all the hype with KC he hasn’t even made the team yet, and that with the RAF Man entering his second full year, and hopefully just playing OF this year he may improve with the bat.
  11. Campbell is not even on the team at this point, so if, and when he does, and if, and when he produces more than Raf Man then that would be a discussion to be had. Who knows RAF Man being in his 2nd full year, and hopefully playing just OF he may flourish this year.
  12. Agree 100%. 2B is more important than 3B, and this makes for less moving parts.
  13. They have showed on NESN before of Casa working on his D working on drills of digging low throws out of the dirt. I don’t know who works with him, but I know he participated in Story’s camp the last two years. Just, because it isn’t publicized doesn’t mean he isn’t working on his D, and because you haven’t seen it, or read about it certainly in this case doesn’t mean anything either.
  14. It does appear that way on the 2B situation. I think KC is just getting AB like everyone else, and not really in any competition for an OF job, and will head back to Woo with Anthony, and Mayer, and then go from there.
  15. Cora has already said just like he did when Story arrived that Bregman won’t be moving around, so wherever he plays he stays. If you need the help with projections on paper then there is nothing wrong if it makes you feel better. I don’t, need that help, and I’ll just wait, and see how things work out in real time.
  16. I’ll tell you when I come back from fishing.🤫
  17. It’s been quiet. Good thing, or bad thing?
  18. 3 IP/7K’s Good stuff. Now if he’s still doing that in Sept. the Red Sox may have something.👍
  19. I know that’s not the answer you wanted to hear, but it’s just my opinion.
  20. No I do not think they only work on DP’s in a game. At any rate I think the 2B job has already been decided.
  21. Getting AB yes, but it does Nothing for working on the D, and turning the DP, and working with Story. Absolutely nothing. I thought D was a big concern.
  22. 2B has been a revolving door for to long now. I would just like to see someone win the job FT. I don’t care who it is. KC, Grissom, DHam, Romy, or even Bregman. Then I don’t care what they do with the rest.
  23. Who says Casas hasn’t worked on his D?
  24. I fully understand KC is versatile, and can play different positions. I would rather see that KC was good enough to win the 2B job FT, and then there wouldn’t be any need for him to play another position. Romy is a Swiss Army knife, and he a backup. I just don’t see the need to move to other positions for the FT players unless there is an injury, or just poor roster construction. I keep repeating that 2B is a BIG need right now.
