    Because they're cheap and can't afford us. Duh.

    3/30 - The Road Trip: Game 3

    Man, if only there was a way we could have improved the team over the last few months, we might be in better shape. Oh well!

    Everybody hurts sometimes: The latest injuries

    Who is the 1B when Casas needs a break and Dalbec isn't on the roster? I'm sorry if I'm not seeing the obvious answer

    Let's Lay Off That Throttle

    FWIW, Cotillo had like half a dozen quotes from (probably) agents this off-season that said the Sox were acting like a small market team. He didn't have a single quote from anyone saying the Sox were making good offers but the players just weren't interested in playing in Boston.

    Jordan Montgomery signs with Arizona

    This deal is an absolute joke and should have been beaten by the Sox. I haven't watched an inning of spring training so far and I honestly have no desire to now. The Sox decided the team wasn't worth investing in, so I suppose I will too.

    Let's Predict the 2024 Red Sox Season

    I'm way too salty about this off-season to have any optimism, so I'm going with 68 wins.

Jansen -Team leader in ERA...

    Yeah that was incredibly tough to look at, but didn't seem dirty on replay

    Lucas Giolito has an elbow issue.

    We needed 2, and then we traded Sale. So 3.

    Lucas Giolito has an elbow issue.

    So we went into the off-season needing two starting pitchers, and we came out needing three. Man, this year is going to be brutal.

    When Is It Okay To Worry About Triston Casas: An Attempt at the Reverse Jinx

    I mean, it's the first step of what we want. But the Sox began extension talks with Lester and Bogaerts at one point (that we later learned were seriously lowball offers). So I won't be giving the Sox credit for starting talks, yet.

    Offseason rumors

    Becket had 10/5 rights at the time of the Punto trade, so it's not impossible, but you're right that the more of them are involved the more difficult it becomes.

    Offseason rumors

    But if getting a better hitter was a stated goal, then why should they not be held to that goal? It's not someone else set a goal for them that was too lofty to reach - they put it on themselves, and it looks like they will not meet it. IMO, they should 100% be held to their own words and stated...
