    4/14 Galileo's Well-Handled Balls. . .

    Travis Shaw’s career ended for less but we’re stuck with Bobby D. Edit: Not his fault and I feel for him but he doesn’t belong anywhere near an MLB roster at this point.

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    And it’s going to be really nice next week when they come back…too bad Fenway opening day doesn’t coincide with the eclipse, though. That would have been a lot of fun.

    3/28/24 - Opening Day 2024 - Red Sox at Mariners

    Say Rafaela is JBJ (but who can also play SS on occasion) in one of his ~90 OPS+ years--are we happy with that for this year? What if that's his ceiling?

    3/28/24 - Opening Day 2024 - Red Sox at Mariners

    Any chance the game threads won't immediately dissolve into a toxic brew of irrational anger this season? Hope springs anew!

    Red Sox to be 1st MLB featured on Netflix series

    Nobody at FSG thinks this is going to cover up for a bad team, come on. It’s just a Werner deal—Netflix was probably fishing around and he bit.

    Theo’s back????!!!!

    My guess (based on nothing) is this was part of the deal from the start and Breslow is thrilled. Edit: that doesn’t change the short term outlook for this team, but I‘m more optimistic about the longer term than I have been in a while.

    Offseason rumors

    I never want to see Bobby D at bat for the Red Sox again, is that too much to ask?

    Let's Lay Off That Throttle

    It appears that Chaim's inability to get deals done was the issue, not the approach. I'd prefer the Sox act like the Atlanta Braves and start developing and locking up their own guys vs. having to overpay in the free agent market. In the meantime they should act a little more appreciative of...

    Mayo is the New Coach

    I like it—get a forward thinking OC and GM in place and let’s go. Cap space and high picks with Gonzalez basically a 2nd # 1 returning, things could turn around quickly (at least as far as being a playoff contender).

    End of an Era: Bill Belichick and Patriots to part ways

    This forum can't help but self-flagellate and predict doom lately. It's OK everyone, we already paid our karmic debt in the 80s and 90s.

    End of an Era: Bill Belichick and Patriots to part ways

    This forum seems to think the Krafts are the Sullivans now I guess. There will be talented people running the football organization. That doesn't mean there's a Super Bowl coming soon but let's give the doom & gloom crap a rest.

    End of an Era: Bill Belichick and Patriots to part ways

    They have cap money, the 3rd pick in the draft (and the 2nd pick in the 2nd round) and somewhat decent core on the defense with Gonzalez returning. Things might actually get better!

    Thank you Bill Belichick

    "We're on to Cincinnati" is one of the greatest coaching moments in the history of the league.
