  1. or maybe it's the MO of a guy who either doesn't know what he is doing or doesn't want to totally alienate RSN
  2. Look with every GM there are hits and misss. Those who support Bloom are not going to change their opinions. The reality is that the Sox have basically played .500 since Chaim arrived and they have also cut the payroll from a top 5 to now #11 in MLB. If Sox fans are happy with that then Bloom has done a great job....
  3. teams don't give up good young SP
  4. yes generally for twice through the rotation.
  5. What pitching prospect is close to MLB ready?
  6. Red Sox home attendance is down just over 1000 fans/game not near enough to get John Henry's attention.
  7. Houck is better suited in the BP. That should be obvious by now. Bello certainly has potential but is far from proven yet. Same with Crawford but this plus another 1 yr deal on a veteran is how the Sox rotation will likely look next year.
  8. True but Devers was out of necessity as there would have been a riot on Yawkey way had he been let get away. Story was a terrible signing from day 1 in the same vein as Sale but it was certainly made as the replacement for when Bogaerts left. As for Yoshida it is still early but this looks like a good signing I agree.
  9. He was a FIRST ROUND pick right? I guess it is too much to hope he might become the Sox 2B sometime in the future??
  10. You are dreaming if you think Kike has any real trade value. A .230 bat and decent OF glove as a rental will bring back nothing more than a low level prospect that Bloom craves.
  11. This is exactly bang on. John Henry wants to win without paying long term salaries. He figured that Bloom came from Tampa who has been able to pull this off but he missed the fact that all Bloom actually did was shine Friedman's shoes. Henry has forbid Bloom from big spending and wants him to build from the farm. But this Bloom's 4th year here now and it has been a .500 era with nothing showing me things will be better in 2024. We can moan all we want about Sale, Paxton, Kluber but when they are gone who is going to fill in? A rotation of Whitlock, Bello, Crawford, Pivetta and whatever other broken down SP Bloom brings in leads to another subpar season in my view. No pitching prospects are close to MLB ready.
  12. This is one of the most sensible posts I have read on here. Can someone name a SINGLE TOP pitching prospect Bloom has drafted or acquired other than Whitlock? The franchise from which Bloom came from { Tampa} was so adept at acquiring top young pitching talent. I am not interested in some 5 year plan. This is the Boston Red Sox not some small market team. I have zero faith that Bloom can put a true contender of the field in 2024.
  13. Pardon my ignorance but who is Joe Jacques?? Another Bloom find?? This is getting beyond hilarious.
  14. Casas is the least of the Red Sox problems. He will be fine.
  15. BTW--if the Sox lose tonight their record since Bloom took over will stand at 225-222 overalmost 3.5 years of his regime.
  16. Connor Wong is still small sample size and he is hitting about .230 right now.
  17. because he is not a Bloom guy
  18. isn't that what we said last offseason?
  19. that was what Tampa was great at and where Bloom is from yet he has not really added s single top SP IN THE 3 PLUS YEARS he has been here.
  20. All this discussion really means nothing. What DOES mean something is that the Sox are WeLL on their way to their 3rd last place ALEast finish in Bloom’s 4 years inBoston. That is FACT and REAITY.
  21. And Mayer pretty much fell into Bloom’s lap.
  22. I think our farm system is over-rated. Yes it is better than it was but name me ONE top pitching prospect anywhere near MLB ready Bloom has brought in.
  23. i dont think any top of the line starters will come on 1 yr deals
  24. that is exactly what it will be--in 2025
