  1. i hear this a lot, but respectfully and seriously, what does it even mean? build through the farm with draft picks? doesn't every team have a farm and get to draft? aren't these no-brainers that every team does? IMHO, it just means this: we're too f***ing greedy to spend money on free agents, so we are going to just play what we have and hope for the best.
  2. it all started over a hundred years ago... 1920: Frazee selling Babe Ruth to the Yankees.
  3. we keep fretting about what pitcher(s) the Sox might sign when in reality, the Dodgers will sign any free agent worth having. the rest of us peons will have to fight for the scraps.
  4. and all this time, i thought Old Red was your favourite.
  5. i wouldn't have blamed them if we had adequate pitching depth, but we didn't. and still don't.
  6. there ya' have it. fvck you John Henry.
  7. spending big does not guarantee a WS, but i bet it damn sure improves your chances.
  8. why not? minor leagurer Johnny "Binky" Jones was traded for a 25lb turkey in 1930.
  9. are you saying that Old Red is Brian??
  10. i'm sure Henry sees it as hiring a dozen new nerds is cheaper than any free agent.
  11. i BET that if Ohtani actually came out and admitted that he bet on baseball, he wouldn't get the treatment Rose got. no way. and btw, i don't doubt a bit that he really did and it's all being covered up.
  12. any thought of giving up a player like Casas just to get rid of Masa is insane, when Boston could just pay him to go away.
  13. i wish your upset prediction had been correct. after beating Tennessee two weeks ago, i really thought we had a chance.
  14. i figure Raffy will have surgery about the time spring training starts.
  15. i don't know about Moon but i'd do the Abreu/ Hamilton deal in a minute. but, no on Campbell.
  16. i am a big DD fan but i remember being extremely pissed about two things: the Sale extension and trading Beeks. i was against both. i was also, at one time, a huge fan of JH. but then he turned into a ********.
  17. easy to look back now. but as bad as that was, i'd say it's no worse than what the clowns that replaced him have done.
  18. Yep, sign Bregman and have Devers DH and platoon at 1B with Casas as you suggest and dump Masa for whatever it takes.
  19. i'm not sure i'd call it 'having balls' to trade Sale. i'd call it something else.
  20. and since he has been "injured" and not "earned his keep", the Sox should trade him to Atlanta and pay $10M of his of salary for a AAA suspect. right?
