  1. i actually think that once the Sox are truly out of it they will go a run of victories to lower their draft position and Bloom will select another HS with our first rd pick
  2. you raise a very good point. I am pretty sure Henry will choose option 1 as Bloom has filled his mandate of lowering the payroll while remaining competitive.
  3. Wacha was still out there I believe
  4. This is exactly what I have been saying all along. There is VERY LITTLE pitching talent in our system.
  5. no matter how you spin it with your post none of these guys are going to get us the quality P help we so desperately ned.
  6. would not hesitate to move him for a bag of good used practice balls
  7. I want young Pitchers who fit our the age range of the team Bloom is trying to build. Yamamoto fits. Castillo's best yrs are behind him.
  8. I am hoping we can get Yamamoto but agree there will be lots of teams after him. Will Henry actually open his wallet?? As for Nola I would not be going 5 years at big number which he is likely to get. The guy is 30 yrs old and a TJ candidate.
  9. right in the mushy middle. perfect spot for Bloom to select another HS SS with our 1st rd pick
  10. A number of points here. 1] i love Justin Verlander but the time to get him passed 3-4 years ago. 2} Mayer is UNTOUCHABLE. 3} Yorke is NOT a valuable trade chip. You can sign FA 2B's every offseason. Not saying he might not turn into a decent MLB player just saying that 2B are reasonably easy to acquire. 4} I don't see any impending FA SP that I would be in on. Blake Snell and Aaron Nola are probably the 2 best available but will want big $$ and likely long contracts and I stay WAY AWAY from that. 5} I just dont see teams trading away top young cost controlled SP tht the Sox need. A real pickle for your favourite GM.
  11. Owens was a total flop. Espinoza could have been a stud if not for TJ. Pedro was real high on him.. bottom line is no one’s is giving up a top pitching prospect without a HUGE return.
  12. Yorke and Duran are not getting a TOP young SP. Yorke is a dime a dozen on the market.
  13. Are you kidding me ?
  14. We would need to include another good prospect with Duran to get a quality SP. he’s not really that young anymore
  15. Neither of those. The first name in each group should be pretty much untouchable unless we are getting a young Pedro is return. Draft and develop our own like we are doing with Bello. 4 yrs of Chaim and we don’t have a single guy like that in the system
  16. I am pretty sure that all teams have had similar type schedules throughout the season. They just got off a cushy schedule a while back and now they face the mighty KC Royals for 3 after a day off. Not buying this excuse.
  17. That was my actually. None of Bloom’s prospects are MLB ready. He must be pumped though going through the waiver wire to see what he can add for Pennie’s on the dollar.
  18. I think I posted correctly here didn't I?? Maybe Bloom could find a way to qualify for a playoff berth in an expanded format more than once every 4 years??
  19. Are you telling me that is not going to happen?? Turner and Duvall will both likely want more than a 1 yr deal. Bloom may decide simply to replace them with one of his prospects or he may bring in a veteran on another 1 yr deal. That has been his modus oper endi
  20. 2024 will be status quo. Duvall and Turner will be gone replaced by a couple more to be named veterans on 1 yr deals while we wait for Bloom's prized prospects to arrive and save us.
  21. Turner will be gone too but I am sure Bloom can add a few veterans on 1 yr deals to replace him all the while getting the Sox to #20 on the MLB payroll
  22. I find this a pointless argument as the Sox have many bigger issues than these 2 guys. they are both actually 2 of Bloom's better pickups but you can say goodbye to Duvall after this year. Hey we hardly got to know ya.
  23. With the Sox now 7 games out of a W/C I say it's time to call up some of these great prospects Bloom has assembled. I'd also sit Dever's ass for a few games. He's had a brutal last week or 2. Of course once the Sox are officially out of it they will win a bunch of meaningless games just to screw up the draft position and Bloom will have to draft another H/S SS with our 1st rd pick.
  24. I believe we are 7.5 out of a W/C now. time to call up some of the great prospects Bloom has acquired.
