  1. they might try to tell they are but MOST of us on here know they are not., Now if they could get Skubal-lol
  2. well Marte is off the market so do you still trade Witherspoon for say Donovan who its likely too be the next so called Sox target?
  3. MLBTR just posted that Marte WILL NOT be traded so there goes another Sox "target" off the board. Talk will now switch to Donovan lol.
  4. Sox fans need to stop dreaming about getting Skubal. No chance in he$$ JH will buck up the ## needed for him. and given how much and how long a deal it would take I can't really disagree with him on this one.
  5. not me. i could care less if we get Marte or not. For years we/I have wanted top young SP prospects and now that we have them I'm not dealing them. I see Early and hopefully Witherspoon in our rotation and Tolle as our closer. Also I really don't want to trade Abreu or Duran either.
  6. IMO it makes very little sense to trade the assets that would be needed for Marte rather than just sign Bichette or Bregman. If they do trade for Marte it will be all about the $$$
  7. Witherspoon is another that needs to stay. Crawford, Sandavol, or the guy we got from Pittsburgh could be candidates to trade along with on OF and KC.
  8. he is only a perfect fit if he can get him at a reasonable trade cost not involving Tolle, Early, Witherspoon , or Bello and that is probably not likely
  9. keep Early and Mayer. Marte doesn't fit the Sox window or budget
  10. my comment on Crawford was simply in jest and a reaction to the fact that 1-2 year deals are pretty much what the Sox have been doing for the past few years. Personally I could care less if the Sox spend big on FA's. For example there is no chance I would sign Bregman for any more than 3 years and there would be NO opt out clause whatsoever. I don't mind Bichette for 5 years given he is only 28 and is a good player who can fill a hole for us. But if we go into 2026 with our current roster I'm fine with that but save us the reports that we are in on this guy and that guy and then get none of them. as for payroll when we were once 2-3 and are now 8-10 and have missed the postseason 4 of the past 6 years after JH stated his goal was to compete for a WS EVERY YEAR.- that I have an issue with. The current team even with Bregman added is not a true contender IMO.
  11. i think Bichette would probably be a pretty safe bet but if we are not in on a guy like that I guess we won't be in on any big name FA's for a while.
  12. are you trying to suggest i wanted Yoshida ???? I hated the signing from day and was very vocal about it at the time.
  13. then why have we missed the playoffs 4 of the last 6 years?
  14. and then there are the fans like you that defend JH to no end despite 4 non playoff seasons in the past 6 years. Not mention that the Red Sox are one of the very top revenue making teams in MLB yet the payroll has dropped from a top 3 to somwhere between 8-12 without a single FA signing to date.
  15. Cutter Crawford signs--you guessed it a 1 yr contract
  16. way to cover your you know what lol
  17. when did I say anything about the NYY P? Saying that though Cole before his injury was a far better P than Sandavol ever was. Also IMO Crawford is a reasonably low bar to compare to. i think his RELATIVE success was due at least in part to his unique short arm delivery. Nonetheless overall I think our rotation is in decent shape If we go into the season as we are now I think we win 87-90 games.
  18. what is with all this love for Sandoval?? guy hasn't thrown a pitch for us and some have him as our #3 or 4 and here you are saying we lost our #5 last yr when it was already expected he would all or almost all of 2025
  19. i don't have an issue with Moon. Seems like a decent guy but yeah some of posts are a bit long. I generally don't read all of them as a result.
  20. this is a pointless argument Moon. You bounce all over the place. In one post you are critical of JH not spending enough and then your very next post you are saying he spends plenty. I do agree that we have made poor choices on our FA signings as a rule but don't throw Hicks into your argument. Sox were forced into taking his contract as a payoff for offloading the entire Devers money. I watched Hicks stink in Toronto and said from day 1 I hated adding him. Like Yoshida no-one will take either.
  21. none since 2018 and only 2 postseason appearances. Do they WS titles in the early 2000's give JH a pass for as long as he owns the team ?
  22. Given that Henry has owned the team since the very early 2000's that is a weak argument.
  23. Sox are not signing Suarez or Bichette. There is about a 20% chance that they are able to wait out Bregman since he seems to want too return. There is also no chance of adding a #2 SP either.
