    Sox talking Mookie trade with Dodgers, Padres - News & Discussion

    Money. They didnt even sign one of their biggest run producers in Marcell Ozuna who got only 1 year 18M from atlanta, if they cant spend 18M on one of their own, they must blanch at the idea of 420 M to sign Mookie. They gave Goldschmidt 130M and that's less than 1/3 of what Mookie wants.

    Sox talking Mookie trade with Dodgers, Padres - News & Discussion

    I dont think the Dodgers want anything but mookie, and on their terms. They already are the prohibitive favorites in the NL so they see themselves as having the upper hand in any negotiation, as we have already seen in the Lindor discussions. Add to that the general perception that the Red Sox...

    Cora in line for major suspension?

    disagree strongly who was it who changed the pitchers regimen during spring training? cora right. So 2018 was definitely tainted. you can make all the excuses you want, but thats all they are. EXCUSES the fact that around the Country, people see the City of Boston as a city of cheaters, isnt...

    Cora in line for major suspension?

    L agree, as long as the temptation is there, someone will always try to gain an advantage. Standing on second and figuring out the signs on your own, is gamesmanship....anything else is cheating, no more no less. and those passing the buck saying all teams do it are as bad as the Astros...

    Cora in line for major suspension?

    you cant really say this, whose to say the Sox even make the playoffs if they werent cheating during the season, given that in 2019 with basically the same team didnt even qualify for the playoffs. logically if Cora got away With something less than Kosher in houston, he would have no...

    2019-20 Offseason Discussion

    I'm not saying we have to like it. What I am saying is that it does nobody any good to set unreasonable standards for a return which only winds up with expectations that leave us disappointed. price won 7 games last year and 29 over the past 3 seasons. What would we pay for that if we were...

    2019-20 Offseason News, Rumors, Trades

    that may make sense for the indians, even though the Dolans have enough money to afford lindor, they portray themselves as as small market. but with Forbes saying the Sox are worth over 6 Billion, the optics of nickel and diming Mookie makes henry look cheap especially after the Yankees go all...

    2019-20 Offseason Discussion

    sure 32x 3 =96 15x3= 45 so 96-45 =51 his reputation took a big hit with the eckersley fiasco, fans around the game see david as a headcase, and if we're honest we see him as less than reliable, in 2017 we wanted him gone too if you disagree i leave it to you to find links from credible sources...

    2019-20 Offseason Discussion

    realistically with his injury issues price at best is worth 15M a year . he doesnt have a great reputation around the sport. Maybe Maddon might be willing to go a bit higher based on his familiarity with him but i cant be sure of that since maddon is a new hire. so the question is will John...
