Thats odd. Why do you care that I show up to post here from time to time to talk to some people whose opinion I respect? But no, Im not rooting for this team at present. And my personal freinds are texting me asking me to and all pissy that they lost the life of the part at their RS viewing parties. WEll, some of them, some of them are moving on also. I dont root for teams that treat people like the RS do. Youre gonna have to get over it. Im not sure if Ill continue to come here. It wasnt that long ago since I read Breslow yell shut up and dribble, and that stabbed me right in the heart. Im sorry Im not a bootlicker.

Correct. The whole WAR/$ over the life of the contract overlooks the advantage of being able to combine producers on min wage contracts with elite producers paid market value. I would say thats a pretty succesful formula: high paid players carrying their weight + youngsters contributing for very little salary. If I was a GM and a team told me that I had 800m to spend over the next 4 years, I dont think it would be wise to make sure you spend it evenly. I would probably take advantage of yr 1 and yr 2 job security/honeymoon and throttle back knowing that it would give me excess budget room in my put up or shut up years (years 3 and 4), so I would circle them. And I would even be willing to go youth in yrs 1 and 2 , trade for some prospects. But when yrs 3 and 4 emerge , I would stop chasing value and efficiency as much. People tell me we shouldnt be cyclical because we should compete for a ship every year and there is no reason to build the team in phases (buld for future, then build for present when future arrives). But we really havent been competive for a ship in 6 years , and it doesnt appear like the rebuild is over and we're on the verge of turning a corner.

Sham?

well then wake me up in 2028

wow, the president. omgeeeee. Story is a famous professional athlete who led the team in homeruns last year. Lick Breslows boots, he need not do.

In my opinion, the suit screaming do what we pay you is the one who needs to get fired....Even if it wasnt Breslow. Thats bad. Story has every right to ask. If I was whitlock i would nver pitch for this team again. Id love a manager to scream at me like you want. Catch a middle finger and a chuckle as you watch top talent walk out the door.

Think about how much more productive he could have been, if in the at-bats where he walked - he got a hit 34.4% of the time

Def would have Torpedo'd it if it were an all girls elementary school

I prefer Trick Williams

What the red sox need are new managers, executives, and players. Not a batting order swap.

maybe 4 of the 8

Like 6 of the 8 were bangers (not tessie)

HOW DARE YOU. MVP 05 was so much better! DId you even play 05? Did 04 even have the arcade style HR derby where you would get monster points for hitting cars and other props and you had to get x points to clear levels? It didnt have the banger soundtrack that 05 did either. Im finding out true love is blind!

Theres plenty wrong with not looking to swing the bat. I would argue its one of our biggest problems.

My PC Friars basketball team just recruited a guy who goes by Dink (not the clown wrestler)

Ill take it.

Okay Hunter Hearst Helmsley

"What the titanic needed is more deck chairs"

Dont need a PhD to see that. But regardless, thanks doc.

Okay, Ghandi I say kick it up a notch like Emeril. Bam!

Chasing OBP like its 2006.

The starched collar with the sweater vest aint it, with his defensive body language always falling back to how hes the boss and quick canning the glue of the entire organization (the guy who called him a stiff). He also insulted Bregman to his face and btw Tek aint coming back. I hope we lose every game remaining this year. I care about kindness and professionalism. I care about treating people with respect. The Yale thing doesnt bother me. But just because you are smart enough to get into an Ivy is not an excuse to dress like its 1997 with like a Brooks Brother button down with a stiff AF collar poking out from under a sweater vest. Breslow looks like a worse version of the skinny dude from chromeo. Only hes like 40x less cool. If we got the skinny dude from chromeo (or even the talk box guy) , Id be right back on board. Let me tell you that I saw your boy walking down the street. He was all shaky, hands all sweaty And he could hardly speak Get rid of a boy like him, and get a man like me Cuz we just aint the same Oooh wouldnt that feel nice? Little dinner and some candlelight What we need, when it comes down to it, Is some men who are down to fight.

Karl Anderson?

But do you bo-lieve?

Breslow has been an absolute trainwreck. Future looked bright under Bloom. Now we're riding the struggle bus, and I cant even root for a turnaround from an organization led by a pompous jerk. Just listening to an interview recently , he was going on about how hes the boss and he gets final call. Breslow insults people to their face and is a bad human. These are bigger reasons why we stink. He botched multiple key relationships and the team we have is full of pivots and consolation prizes. I am actively rooting against these jerks until Breslow is gone.
