Whats the rush, man?
-
well arent you all having a nice conversation on a topic i brought up without me. What? I meant that sincerely. Sorry if it SOUNDED sarcastic
-
Maybe Im just an optimist, but I dont see JH as this major tight wad. I think most of our issues are Bloom and Breslow.
-
If the lockout is quick and we enter next year with the same overall lux tax/penalty/two threshold structure - I am not super confident they wont go above the second threshold.
-
We dont know; however, if they will even have the ability to go above the 2nd theshold - as it might become a hard cap.
-
I dunno, they are spending hugely on Liverpool.
-
Probably Tracy pulling starters. Because it would have mattered. Ultimately , it didnt matter because double guessing Tracy is just crying that we should have lost 3-1 when we lost 9-1.
-
The team lacked thump, and that proved to be their undoing. They were borderline unwatchable the final 1/4 of the season. I saw it coming. Thats what I know.
-
I knew the team didnt have enough hitting last playoffs, didnt get it last offseason, last year, and last playoffs. I was pretty vocal about it. The complacency contingent was like we will be fine because if you squint they will be top 15 in OBP. ANd then we fell on our face with an awful , anemic offense. And teh complacency contingent is back, yet again, to tell us, dont expect improvement. Am I getting trolled?
-
IF it was a 11 game series, we would have lost 6 in a row and averaged .05 runs between the six games. The offense was putrid all of September too.
-
It was not getting Bregman and Alonso. It was trading Devers the year before. It was ignoring the need for slg. It was rolling over the mostly same hitter group that fell on their face last year. I completely reject your premise that this is the lens of how he should be graded. He should be graded that he is now entering year 5 and has no reg season finish above 3rd and no playoff series wins. Its not like this is his first offseason.
-
Well, then they better get to wheeling and dealing.
-
I havent fully accepted that, but I see it as a potential roadblock. Im hoping that they understand that payroll will clear as various contracts expire. Also, inflation and the elephant in the room that we dont know how the ownership vs players will settle.

A Realistic View at the 2027 Red Sox Part I
drewski6 replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
And people should temper their expectations for 2027 Roman, and 2027 Mead, and 2027 Adley. Abreu and Cedanne, I think we know what we can expect. Streaky hitting that averages out to good, good D. I dont hate Contreras, but if his .900+ OPS turns into .800ish, its very possible we go backwards in offense. Starting from 25th out of 30, thats hard to do. -

Exactly. -
yup
-
At a point last year, I was screaming fire Breslow. Ive quieted on that. Thats as far as Im willing to go right now. Im not there yet where I can turn into a defender or praise him or endorse him. I will give him that his hot seat turned to warm. For it to get to cool, we need to move up. Sports, you are accountable to your results. Thats what Parcells famously said. Breslow doesnt get an exception.
-
Yup, great add. And this is why talking about how we cant put too much in 2 games vs the yankees in the playoffs or talking about how we cant blame ourselves for not hitting their good pitching in a small sample , feels like carrying water for Breslow. He set out to fix our offense at least at the beginning of last offseason, and he didnt. By most metrics, our offense went backwrds. But Joe Brady will tell you because he spent efficiently, he should get exec of the year and we should build statues for his perennial third place, easy out in the playoff teams. Its like asking me where I am going to put my Eduardo Rodriguez tattoo. Since when do we worship mediocrity?
-
You dont understand why we are focused on getting past the yankees when all they did was get one round further then us? Are you thking about how you are going to beat level 4 when you are on level 2? Have you ever heard of looking past the current opponent? Because the last 2 years, the yankees have taken us out. And its gotten easier for them to do so (2026 vs 2025). Also because of the playoff format you have to get through your division first 1-2 rounds of playoffs. Love it or hate it, we have to get to second before we can get to first in the ALE. And last 2 years its the NYY who have prevented us from moving up in the reg season to second (where at least we'd have the home games) and its the NYY that sent us home with smug faces to boot (especially Schlittler)
