    Spending is against John Henry's religion
  2. Randy Red Sox
    Grichuk will save the 2025 season
  3. Randy Red Sox
    he is just following the directives given by Mr Henry--KEEP THE PAYROLL DOWN!!!!!!
  4. Randy Red Sox
    we will most likely do neither
  5. Randy Red Sox
    we don't have any more top prospects we can give up for Castillo and despite your views Abreu will not get it done.
  6. Randy Red Sox
    are there any rehabbing catchers and relievers available?
  7. Randy Red Sox
    exactly
  8. Randy Red Sox
    i am actually glad we did not get the money grubbing Soto. Looking forward to the arrival of Anthony.
  9. Randy Red Sox
    you seem to be coming around Notin
  10. Randy Red Sox
    how many times are we going to go down this route?
  11. Randy Red Sox
    and Wong has 2nd C written all over him
  12. Randy Red Sox
    there is that benefit lol even though i know you are kidding
  13. Randy Red Sox
    we have certainly taken gambles on guys far worse than this
  14. Randy Red Sox
    it was Bloom trying to score a coup. Like everything else it did it was a fail
  15. Randy Red Sox
    it is a good complaint. i have stated that I am happy we got Crochet who like you say is young top SP but not really all that controllable. I think we gave up too much for him but I guess that is the cost. But reality is that the main reason we got him was that he only earns 3 million in 2025 while adding a FA SP like Burnes or Fried would have cost a lot more. I am upset we gave up Teel and now are very short on catching depth.
  16. Randy Red Sox
    the catching position is likely worse than the pitching
  17. Randy Red Sox
    i like Abreu and actually think he is worth more to the Sox than he would be in a trade.
  18. Randy Red Sox
    sadly we are likely wasting our time even hoping for Buehler. Sox will probably just sign Means and call it a day on the rotation.
  19. Randy Red Sox
    i would just sign Bueller on a 1-2 yr deal. He should be affordable even to Ebenezer Henry and at least has a track record.
  20. Randy Red Sox
    I am sure he will make us forget about trading Teel.
  21. Randy Red Sox
    you are way over-valuing Abreu. IMO. He is a nice platoon player but likely wouldn't return anything more than a decent reliever or back of the rotation SP of which we have several already. I don't care how much we apparently offered Soto but most reports say we were not close to getting him. Likely our offer was simply to drive up the cost for the 2 NY teams. To date this offseason the Sox have done nothing to convince me that Henry's goal of keeping the payroll down has changed at all. Only a Burnes signing could change my view. Not advocating for that -just using it as an example. Crochet was a great add {at a significant cost} but he is only at 3 million in 2025 and still arbitration eligible for 1 yr after that.
  22. Randy Red Sox
    the only trade the Sox will be making will either be one where we are shedding salary or two where we will NOT be adding significant salary.
  23. Randy Red Sox
    we got our backup C from the NYY trade
  24. Randy Red Sox
    and we will probably stay fairly close to that
  25. Randy Red Sox
    You have no need to worry. Henry won't approve a long term deal.
