  1. that is EXACTLY the mandate Bloom was given and he has achieved that marvelousy. team is around .500 and payroll has been substantially reduced. Bloom has done his job !!!
  2. It is just that the players are not that good. The Sox are weak behind the dish and throughout the IF unless you consider Raffy as a decent defensive 3B. Yoshida is terrible in LF with the glove. CF and RF are fine. Te rotation is held together by Duct tape and the BP is basically fine. That all adds up to a 40-41 record at the mid point.
  3. Duran will not get any DECENT pitching back-certainly not a good SP. Possibly a reliever but we dont really need help there as much as other places.
  4. Not to mention he broke up a WS team in Florida too
  5. The new owner can do that after he takes over. Henry is likely THRILLED with the job Bloom is doing.
  6. i hate to disappoint you but Duran is NOT bringing back a decent pitching option in a trade. Bloom needs to blow this thing up at the deadline and get back whatever LITTLE he can for Kluber, Janssen, Pivetta, Paxton, Duvall, and Dalbec. I know none of them are worth much but the 2023 Sox are GOING NOWHERE !!!
  7. that has been my argument all along. Bloom's hands are tied by Henry who needs to SELL the team.
  8. have no fear---Bloom will fill those spots with his BBB hunting
  9. those of us tht were realistic expected that we would be getting a guy who would cut the payroll and try to build the farm system. Well we got the former but not so sure about the latter.
  10. since when has BLOOM taken the best player available with his 1st rd pick other than Mayer?
  11. sure because we need more SS's.
  12. nonetheless watch Bloom take another SS with our 1st rd pick next week
  13. ok so I will answer directly. first off I never said we should have signed either of those guys but I was 100 % against the signing of Kluber from day 1 and given hindsight I would have resigned either of those 2 over Kluber. it is obvious you are a Bloom fan but I ask you how many more last place AL East finishes do we need to endure before the Bloom PLAN actually comes to fruition? How many more 1-2 year contracts does he need to bring in before this team can TRULY contend for a WS--NOT JUST A PLAYOFF SPOT??
  14. WHEN has Pivetta EVER had a 15-20 game hot stretch??
  15. you better do more research if you think this were the only 2 injury risk players that Bloom has signed. still waiting to see the shortstop who was to fill the gap till Story returned even make it to rehab. And please tell me which of Eovaldi and Wacha that Kluber replaced in the rotation ?
  16. EXACTLY but one can never convince the Bloom fan club
  17. . This will give Bloom an excuse to hang on to all our starters at the deadline. better to just let them walk for nothing just like 2023 CY Young candidate Nate Eovaldi and Michael Wacha did.
  18. In fairness to Bloom the Sox have been hit by significant injuries in the rotation. Not really all that surprising though given the rotation Bloom constructed.
  19. I thought in 4 years Bloom could have brought us in another Bello type SP
  20. Which will mean that Bloom will not be trading any of our guys on 1 year expiring deals. He will just let them walk for more draft picks like he did last deadline
  21. And what were the Sox after 70 games last year? I don't want to bring it up but who is the GM of the Phillies?? And they also have an owner who is not worried about trimming the payroll.
  22. yet somehow people are still believing in Bloom but the number gets smaller by the day
