this might be the post you have submitted that I agree with more than any others. Keep the payroll as low as possible while keeping the team somewhat competitive.
sorry not sure what you mean? Poster basically said that 24 other teams drafted positional players which is 4x the number who drafted SP. I merely say that there are 8x the number of positions other than P so his argument is not really sound
not a good argument given that there are 8 other positions on the field but if you are ok with Bloom bringing in the next -Kluber, Hill, Richards, Wacha, Paxton, and any others i have forgotten then so be it.
I did not say that the Sox farm was not on the rise. Hell that is really all Bloom seems to care about. I wonder where the Red Sox would rank if the list was based solely on P prospects. I would suggest somewhere between 25-30th
To A red Sox fan named Hugh---As I stated earlier I was simply referring to another poster's quote about drafting 5 shortstops but let me be perfectly clear on this. IMO the Red Sox farm system is somewhat overrated and at least it is VERY SLIM on top P prospects.
Wow that is a lot coin. Not sure Henry would open his wallet that much but I'd be in on this guy. Is this the same guy we saw in the WBC that was throwing 100?
I am referring to a quote from another poster. In any event no-one is trading us a #1 or #2 SP. We either draft and develop them ourselves or Bloom simply goes out and signs us the next Kluber. Why is it that teams like Seattle, Cleveland and Tampa just to name a few can have so many top young SP but not the Sox?
