A happy pitcher is a good pitcher. You don’t mess with a good thing!
-
Could desperate Dave have a trade target in mind for the pen? Because he does not seem interested in signing any free agents.
-
Well that explains why desperate Dave has not been sprinting to the table to sign the kimbrel contract.
-
In 2017 ottavino was no prize. In 2018 he was lights out. Who is the real ottavino? I think some between Feltman, lakins, Hernandez or houck ( our future closer) pop next year, which will make our bullpen will be fine and younger.
-
This could be true. Desperate Dave has said repeatedly that we can keep everybody.
-
Hasn’t Allen’s Velocity been decreasing? Not sure we should be sad he got away.
-
Can’t devers just be himself and not have a cookie cutter build to play 3rd?
-
Mookie broke in and had a great year when Ortiz was in the lineup, Next year Ortiz is retired. Betts is left unprotected and has a miserable year. Next season enter Martinez and Betts has a great year. Martinez to return in 2019, so Mookie should continue to be great.
-
A little less than a month until truck day??? Bullpen still looks weak. Is desperate Dave trying to repeat or build a ready are excuse for failure?
-
I had no problem with the Sox taking a gamble on ball. I have watched ball pitch live several times and in my opinion, when he has command and control, he has Major league caliber stuff. Unfortunately command and control only shows up for him once every 15 times he takes the mound.
-
So mlb network has their top 10 right now. It appears that we while we won 108 games last year, we will not have anybody on the lists for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and catcher! Kind of amazing
-
Don’t first round high school arms have a huge flame out percentage?
-
Huge signing for them! If they pull off the bumgartner trade, they would be positioned for a deep playoff run!
-
Wasn’t allen’s Velocity down in 2018? I’m beginning to think desperate Dave is counting on Feltman in spring training to prove he is the guy!
-
So what does that deal look like?
-
Very true! Too bad we could not develop at least one home grown starter!
-
Once we resign kimbrel and add a replacement for Kelly (ottavino?) our bullpen is not looking that bad. Ps: Feltman, lakins and Hernandez could all arrive this year as well!
-
Anybody hear in the radio that desperate Dave trying to sign benintendi to an eight year deal?
-
We have an excellent chance to repeat, if we stay healthy, so why cheap out on the bullpen?
-
I am extremely good with us bringing back kimbrel. We also need someone to replace Kelly, preferably a lefty and our bullpen will be good to go!
-
This is a really good signing for the Yankees. I thought in the second half of the season he really started to put it together and pitch like he did with the orioles.
-
Hard to imagine. Remember despite having kimbrel, desperate Dave kept acquiring sore armed relievers, aka smith and Thornburg. I suspect desperate Dave knows he needs more relievers and I have no doubt he will bring more in before spring training.

What would a Betts extension be?
Larry Cook replied to jacksonianmarch's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Our m.o. is clearly to pay huge dollars for starting pitching since we can not develop any ourselves and rely on homegrown hitters for the most part. -
What shelf in the dollar store were smith and thornburg on???
-
What would a Betts extension be?
Larry Cook replied to jacksonianmarch's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
I am guessing we could sign two really good pitchers for what you guys are talking about signing Mookie for!!!!!
