    If it were, he'd be really good.

    If we are looking towards 2027, and we should be, I dont think its safe to assume that all 3 of the aforementioned Contreras, Cedanne, Abreu will be healthy and as productive. So I would like to add 3 more bats above 115 OPS+ to this mix and I suppose even Anthony can be one. So get a bopping DH and a bopping infielder easiest route, I suppose. But dont get a 100 OPS+ guy who can field and tell me hes the guy because you like his fielding or because his team also has a lefty pen pitcher you wanna include in the incoming package. Lets get 2 very good hitters and not compromise on the very good hitting part.

    its not the right mentality. Trying to be hyper efficient in payroll is how we wound up in this mess. Trying to squeeze value out of sunk costs. NOt saying jsut spend , spend, spend. Just saying that the issue with this team is that we are short on offensive talent. And if we save money, breslow is just going to get 4 more pitchers. Weve seen the movie before.
  4. drewski6
    Why are you so focused on saving money? So Breslow can get more pitching?

    Im confused why our priority is flipping story. Im not against it, but i mean.....we have 7 holes on offense.
  6. drewski6
    The budget is fine at this level. THe problem is breslow. And no, Ranger Suarez contract will NOT age well

    I dont think the answer to this last place team is a backup catcher.
  8. drewski6
    Led the team in homeruns last year.

    Because they had much better hitters than we had, and despite whatever happened in the reg season....the hitters were raking in the playoffs.....we dont have the personnel.

    as the gentleman from utah implies: scared money dont make money
  11. drewski6
    thats the only path i see to making this team watchable by 2028.

    Maybe if we promise to make cora cbo, cora will accept if he gets to tell breslow himself that breslow is out and hes got his office now. What are you doing in my office? What are YOU doing in MY office? Huh? What? Breslow calls security Security escorts Breslow out

    But it was Vlad and Bo powering them through the playoffs, so you wanna talk about getting to the ws (playoff success) , lets talk about if they were a team of noodle bats in the playoffs.....And htey were not Bro, there is no amount of relief pitching that would have this iteration of the red sox in a great position. Maybe in a spot where we could maybe compete for a playoff spot but thats jsut becasue of a terrible al. I will acknowledge that a balanced team isnt awful, but the red sox built a pitching juggernaut with 8 great starters thats why weve had 3 big pitching injuries and are still first in the AL in pitching WAR. Imagine if we lost our 2 best hitters like weve lost our 2 best starters, we wouldnt have the 3rd best hitting in the league nor would we have the top hitting in the al Breslow went all in on pitching and he should get sacked for it. Like yesterday.

    The Red sox are third in the entire mlb in pitcher WAR

    we relied on too much form our sophmores, and we should have gotten more hitting around them, take the pressure off them and also if they soph slump - we would have still been able to tread water in a playoff spot. Now its looking like a lost year, which is tragic because weve been building for 2026 since 2020. But I do agree you cant tear it all down and start over. Gotta keep Roman and Mayer in roles and just try to build around them and abreu and hope contreras ages like ortiz.
  16. drewski6
    not that i dont disagree.
  17. drewski6
    but the pitching adn defense has been good, no?
  18. drewski6
    well, maybe im thinking of someone else. But they had very good hitters, maybe those who werent hitting during reg season. But guys w talent who were capable of getting hot. I dont think its fair to compare the blue jays hitting last year to ours this year, is my main point.
  19. drewski6
    We need a great hitter! Yeah one who plays 3b, is right handed, is young, is cheap, and can maybe play 2b in a pinch..... Oooh, what about durbin Well he checks all the secondary boxes, but hes not really a great hitter But he checks all the other boxes and if you squint he might be a decent hitter? SIGN ME UP Thats how we wound up in this mess. You get so specific with the other boxes that you need the hitter to check that you end up compromising on the hitting ability, the one thing we shouldnt compromise on. Yes, give me 8 bats.

    or dont complain cuz you are asking for more of the same. Dont complain, then ask for more of the same.
  21. drewski6
    im more willing to try a strategy that didint work 20 years ago when it was a different game than a strategy that flopped this year. Yes, give me 8 good bats, but make sure maybe 5 of them are adequate dfensively....and load me up with high k pitchers. Over .... you know.....this.
  22. drewski6
    you heard it from the horses mouth - theres no secret that we have built a team that is so heavily skewed towards pitching adn defense. yayyyyyyyy run prevention. breslow is a clown.
  23. drewski6
    brslow made one good addition last year (Contreras). It was a D- offeseason.
  24. drewski6
    Or playing Cedanne at infield or playing Contreras at Catcher or knowing that there will be an injury (and there was)....Not saying that we should have gotten both but this mentality of we need a bat that fits into these positions isnt working because there isnt a great supply of bats that are good enough whom we could acquire....So we (or at least I) dont want to start crossing guys off the list because they would require someone to move positions. Guys move around positionally every year.
  25. drewski6
    I bet we have enough positional versatility to make it work. Theres also first base.
