    Theo’s back????!!!!

    The camp he ran is awesome. It's definitely a good support exercise for the young guys. It would just be nicer if someone who has actually had recent success, especially for the Sox, be there as a leader. I'm hoping Story has a bounce-back season, now that he's actually healthy, and can be...

    Theo’s back????!!!!

    Unfortunately, those big splashes haven't really done anything to improve the on-field product for 2024. Hopefully, Breslow and Bailey can help improve the pitchers we already have. However, on paper, I think we're actually worse than the team that won 78 games last season. We've lost about...

    Theo’s back????!!!!

    Truly, the first thing for Red Sox fans to get excited about since hearing Tom Werner utter the completely false "Full Throttle" line. Hopefully, Theo's first move as a member of FSG will be to advise Henry to get his head out of his @ss and empty his pockets a little for the Sox. They can't...

    Can we talk about Cordero for a minute?!? 0 for his last 16 with 15 K's. Dalbec is his platoon at 1B. Can we PLEEEEEASE get an effing first baseman before Baltimore is in 4th place and the Sox are 5 games out of the last Wild Card spot?!?

    Juan Soto is on the trade block; rejects $440 million contract extension from Washington

    Maybe I just seem to catch him at the wrong moments. But, I can't count the number of times where I've seen him get pitched inside and he starts glaring and jawing at the pitcher, like it's some huge offense for him to get pitched inside. And, the amount of swagger he carries himself with just...

    Juan Soto is on the trade block; rejects $440 million contract extension from Washington

    Personally, I want to see some small- to mid-market team break the bank to sign him so he can wallow in last place for the next 15 seasons because they don’t have enough money to build a team around him. He comes across like an arrogant a-hole to me. Let him get his money and enjoy being on a...

    I wanted to forget about him a second after I heard of his re-signing. lol

    If I remember correctly, he was really good pretty much up until the time he signed the extension.

    I guess it shouldn’t be surprising someone would try and take a flyer on him. I’m sure it’s a super-low risk deal. Maybe a change of scenery will do him good. The more laid back West Coast.

    Yeah, I kinda thought you meant Robles. I just never considered him as Boston’s closer. And, I hope I’m not coming across as a d*ck. Just trying to contribute to the discussion.

    Houck. I wasn't paying attention to the evil auto-correct.

    Actually, he's still wallowing on the IL. Barnes is supposedly coming back sometime mid-August. Unless he really shows something in his rehab stint, I wouldn't trust him as a mop-up guy. He's scary AF. And, I can't believe the Dodgers are signing Robles. He was just as bad.

    I'm just saying, going into a season with Bobby Dalbec and Franchy Cordero as your options for first base is not a good idea. It'd be like going all in on Daniel Nava as a starting outfielder and having a AA hopeful behind him. As far as a "true closer", I'd just like to have someone with some...

    Clearly, you're the guy who makes the whitty retorts. I've been a fan of theirs since 1985. Personally, I just see this as flawed. If Dalbec, a guy who far surpassed his expectations in his rookie year, went down, they had Casas, a 22-year old who had 9 games above AA before this season. He...

    Their main problem is depth. They have none. If anyone at virtually any position goes down, they have no backup plan. if Vasquez goes down, they have Plawecki (ugh!). If Franchy goes down at first base (already brutal), they have Dalbec. Up until Jeter Downs' call-up, if Devers went down...
