In return the Sox get the Dodgers really expensive bad contracts.

Not one of them had an owner who hijacked their team's playoff chances.

We leave out the Mets who were aggressive in the offseason. The Phillies were also aggressive in removing their manager.

We are experts in disappointment.

Remember that and when they lost the World Series. Dodger had 6 different pitchers with saves.

You must be thinking of some other organization not named the Sox. I would not trust the current GM in any trade situation.

One of the reasons why I can't stand the NFL is the lack of broadcasters. Too many former players.

One of them lost as well.

I'll settle for that.

This could be another push me over the edge to stop being a fan. I get sick of Reinsdorf forcing former players on us who are not good at anything.

I think teams with outstanding farm systems don't trade their best prospects despite being a large market. They could probably trade ones that a not so good organization gets easily duped like the Sox.

Reminds me too much of the Sox. There's clutch and unclutch. The Sox seem to have more of the latter.

All teams are interested in free agents. We tend to think they are cheap when they pass on them. Pitching is really expensive. Every team is looking for a starting pitcher. Sox on the other hand like those expensive middle relievers.

Tony: "I no longer have to deal with any more criticism. Justin Fields, the podium is now yours"

They musta borrowed the Sox pen.

I can't imagine them replacing the manager. Now if Reinsdorf was one of them it would be LaRussa.

Kinda.........but that shows you the class he has.

Final game of the season they couldn't wait to quit. Not having Abreu play and him taking the high road is just another middle finger to the fans. I wonder if that came from upstairs? Either way that tells you Cairo is never the guy,

Interesting the hole at 2nd is in it's 2nd year. That's not saying Madrigal was the answer. If Moncada doesn't work out, it's a long drought at that position. If Robert can't stay healthy, another drought at CF. Fans seem to want to give up on young players after a few years. I get this feeling when Hahn came out with we are going the cheap route next season we might see Colas starting without any additional time in AAA. He needs to work on reducing his K rate. The real upgrade for next season is the training staff.

This organization created bad contracts and took on a few large market bad contracts. The trade for Kimbrel is not so much about players lost but the Pollock contract will hurt if he is around next season. Unfortunately there is only one naive GM in baseball.

Yes, one can speak English.

Well he is the most naive GM in baseball when it comes to trades.

Not sure why Hahn is furious. I think it's one of those rare occasions the Sox got the better deal. Kimbrel trade was the payback.

That's why I can't stand the DH. It's viewed as a lazy position.

Sox fans like to give up on players early in their careers. Imagine Judge was on the Sox. They would've wanted to trade him 2018. Hahn would have traded him for an overpriced bullpen guy or some other player that a team needed a salary dump.
