    I think this year’s rule 5 draft will have some reliever’s that bres-slow will be creative in going after

    We get somebody to take yoshida and gioletta off our hands and we sign fried and trade for Bryce miller, then we are back in the playoffs in 2025!
  3. Larry Cook
    Is it really the coaches fault that we had so many injuries and that devers, Valdez, and cassas were already defensive dumpster fires before he stepped foot in the door. I thought he did a good job of putting lipstick on the pig!!!!!

    Hang’em Chaim got the dodgers to take price off our hands when he moved betts along. Moving yoshida is finding the right team and the right motivation! if hang’em Chaim, especially with his trade record, could close the betts-price trade, I think bres-slow can figure out how to move yoshida.

    We have the pieces to beat anything Baltimore offers Seattle, if the correct pitcher is coming to us.
  6. Larry Cook
    When all else fails, blame hang’em Chaim
  7. Larry Cook
    You only unload our young quality position players if we get young cost controlled pitching. Seattle and Pittsburgh have young cost controlled pitchers that can help us

    Didn’t you say the same thing about Chris frail??? Maybe he survives better as a DH.
  10. Larry Cook
    The 2025 outfield should be LF - Duran CF - Rafeala RF - Anthony reserve - refsynder Yoshida and abreau are trading chips.

    You put trout at DH and you get veteran leadership for all our youngsters and he and devers are a very deadly lefty- righty combo in the middle of your lineup! Devers will see more fastballs than he has seen in years and his numbers will explode This is the righty bat that makes our lineup dangerous
  12. Larry Cook
    I would do trout plus some cash for yoshida and gioletta!
  13. Larry Cook
    He apparently had had a bad shoulder and thumb. Those would affect his swing
  14. Larry Cook
    I think the scouts over estimated yoshida’s fielding ability. I think we need to pay 40-50mm of the contract if we hope to move yoshida. we will get a prospect ranked 20-30 in a team’s list, but in rookie ball or low A! the important thing is to move yoshida out of town and open up the DH spot
  15. Larry Cook
    Excellent point and we have replacement talent in the funnel now
  16. Larry Cook
    The only way to find out is to contact him, but St. Louis has very little pitching in the pipeline and the quality arms they do have, I am sure any GM would want a king’s ransom for.

    you are correct sir, the gioletta signing was completely bizarre. It did not fit any organizational philosophy (either budget reduction or development path) and in hindsight turned out to be exactly why we should avoid signing veteran retreads. I truly thought our organizational philosophy was built on purposefully ignoring the veteran retreads and focusing on young and inexperienced pitching with huge upside. That we could develop and integrate into our lineup, the gioletta signing was a complete aberration of our pitching philosophy and cost us tremendously in 2024!
  18. Larry Cook
    Should the duran be the next guy the Red Sox try to extend? Just leave him in left field for the next 6-8 years??? Or is 2024 a one year aberration???
  19. Larry Cook
    I think the word on the streets was hang’em Chaim over valued his players and prospects. We are in the unique position that hang’em chaim already over values our players and prospects, therefore we should be an ideal trading partner for him!
  20. Larry Cook
    The Red Sox management says that they going to be aggressive this off season in acquiring pitching. but Red Sox management does not want to be burned by huge pitcher contracts, like the terrible sale contract!!! And we have a surplus of middle infielders and left handed bats, then trades are the most logical avenue to pursue in order to acquire more pitching!
  21. Larry Cook
    Buffet and Charlie munger =180 years old experience. Makes your head hurt!!! i would be happy if bres-slow could time the trade and free agent market with that kind of success
  22. Larry Cook
    The good news about hang’em Chaim getting promoted in st Louis is we have a ready made trade partner for some left handed bats!!!!!
  23. Larry Cook
    I would do that deal every day of the week!
  24. Larry Cook
    I have not seen Bremmer pitch yet, but Arnold is left handed and has decent stuff
  25. Larry Cook
    What a great run buffet had though
