    The Red Sox have fired Chaim Bloom

    The SoxProspects podcast discussed this a couple of weeks ago: Under Bloom, the Sox front office seems to have determined that in the U.S. draft, the stakes (and costs) are too high to go all in on a pitcher who may or may not pan out. So the Red Sox have looked instead for pitchers in the...

    printer I won't hate?

    Thank you for all of the advice! I was happy with my Epson, and like the idea of cheaper ink, and don't want to get locked into an HP program, so I'm going to go with the Epson EcoTank ET-3850. I would have spent another $50 to get the model that has a fax function, but Costco doesn't carry it...

    printer I won't hate?

    My Epson Workforce WF-3520 has died after ten years of steady service. Researching a replacement has been unexpectedly challenging. A friend recommended the HP9015e (the Wirecutter does too), but the reviews I've seen online say that HP has gone downhill in a big way in recent years. A Reddit...

    App for iOS screen mirroring to Roku?

    Our TV is a few years old and we can't cast to it. I recently found out that we can cast to our Roku player instead, though. There are a lot of apps that do this for iOS (which is what we've got); the most widely used, seemingly, is AirBeamTV's...

    The New Math (I’ll gladly pay Justin Turner today not Bogaerts in 9 years)

    Just pointing out that A-Rod signed the 10-year contract in 2000, prior to his age-25 season.

    How interested are you in the Red Sox at this point?

    Part of the joy of watching the Red Sox for the past two decades has been the sense that the front office and ownership were super smart—that they were ahead of the curve in both player evaluation and stats analysis. Today, for the first time in a long time, the people running this team look...

    Red Sox sign Masataka Yoshida

    Given his defensive limitations, I wonder if he'll end up doing some (or a lot of) DHing.

    Red Sox sign Masataka Yoshida

    He seems to be LF only. But he's elite offensively, with superior bat-to-ball and OBP skills, and he'll benefit from the shift ban. Pretty excited to see him.

    Unlock inherited iPhone 6?

    So my dad died in Boston about 18 months ago. Hadn't lost a parent before, and it was fairly shattering. Only recently were my brother and I ready to go through my dad's stuff. Among the things I ended up with was his iPhone 6, which my wife and I figured we'd give to our daughter. The phone...

    RIP MikeF

    One of my very favorite posters over the years, not just for how smart and informative his spring training posts were, but also for his general joie de vivre. RIP, MikeF.

    Red Sox in season discussion

    Good explanations in this thread of why he made this decision--work stoppage, CBA, uncertain market, QO, etc. I'm wondering how/whether the QO might come into play after next season, though. JD will be a year older, which will make the QO an even bigger albatross. Is there a sense that the QO...
