— Our Blogs and Nothing But Our Blogs Hall of Merit: Reranking Pitchers 1893-1923: BallotRank the following 19 pitchers Pete Alexander Sox Therapy: Over and OutWell there’s one question answered for the off season as the Sox have let yet another General Manager go as they have fired Chaim Bloom. This is not a particularly stunning turn of events, three last place finishes in four years is not going to have your bosses exactly enamored of your performance (well, if you are the A’s GM maybe). Anyway, while this is big news I think it’s more interesting to look back briefly but then look forward. And when I say look back I find myself looking (cue ...

Sox Therapy: We’re Gonna Need A Bigger BoatThe Red Sox schedule… It doesn’t look good. Sox Therapy: Three TradesWell the Red Sox are throwing down the gauntlet to even the most skeptical among us. This may not be a great team but they ARE in playoff contention and you don’t sit back and wait in years where that happens. At the same time I think most Sox fans want the right mix of going for it and not giving up the future. That should probably create a bit of a challenge for GM Chaim Bloom and his merry band of number crunchers as July 31 approaches. There is still a pretty sizable part of me that ...

Depending on how you want to look at it I think you could make a case for Verdugo, James Paxton, Brayan Bello and even Jarren Duran. But in the end I’m going with Dugie. A bit of a…something in Cleveland when he was benched for failing to hustle on a ground ball but he ...

Some want the *NSYNC deadline approach (“buy buy buy”) and some want a Barenaked Ladies approach (“sell sell sell”). But I am here to talk about the less exciting but potentially more lucrative “don’t do a damned thing” approach. Let’s start with this. The Red Sox are a flawed team. The holes are obvious and have been since the winter. The pitching is thin (and ... Read More...Sox Therapy: Where We Headed?So I’ve been pondering this a bit lately and jacksone made the following comment that I think helped me narrow my thoughts down; What do all of you expect or hope for next year? Because for me, this team and organization is still a year away from legit contention. There may be a solid wild card run next in ‘24, but I am not expecting any sort of postseason success. 2025, for sure, I expect them to contend and be a legit force. With that in mind, why get someone like Lynn that costs prospects ... Read More...Page 1 of 178 pages 1 2 3 > Last › | Features Archive | Site Archive
