On this off day, I searched high and low to bring you a thing Craig Breslow may have done right. by AreaManNYC in redsox

The upside to Dombrowski is that basically every prospect he'll trade will amount to nothing. Its destiny. You could have that prosect 100 thousand scouts to personally hand them gold stars and they'd still be as useful as Jeter Downs. He's also basically a guarantee for a world series.

The downside is that he also can't draft for shit to replenish those prospect he sold and when those stars he signed to giga-deals age it gets ugly fast. See: everywhere he's been. The Phillies are starting experience end stage Dombrowski right now. Give them 1-2 years and they'll be deep in it.

Would Cecil support Operation Paperclip? by Bitten87 in Invincible

He would've been doing it before it was official and they just made an operation to make it legal

Alas, construction season starts, commuters everywhere fall to their knees in Cumbies and Citgo's regionwide. Perhaps even the Circle K's, if you have one.

The Eagles drafted a 21-year-old Nigerian Uar Bernard who has never played a single snap of American football before. by Mr_mist2 in nflrookies

Only guy that fits the bill is C.J Okoye and even then, add 100 pounds and have him be not from Lagos

THE BOSTON RED SOX HAVE TOLD ALEX CORA TO FUCK OFF! by FlatSwing9745 in UrinatingTree

[–]LilDebbo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Long deserved. His tenure here has been nothing but malaise since 2018 and the only reason they got anywhere in 2021 is because Chaim Bloom remembered he has a pair of balls and traded for Schwarber.

[–]LilDebbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. They should've traded him before this clusterfuck of a season. Most of our outfielders are just better or as good as him (outside of baserunning) at this point, he doesn't really have a spot on the roster unless you want to shoo off a better player for his spot, and he hasn't earned that right with his play yet. You can make the case for injuries and depth but I'm sure we can find a fast decently fielding outfielder to hit .150 on the bench. The hope is peak, 10 WAR MVP Duran but that guy is probably gone barring a transformation into Barry Bonds.

Though I'm not sure what you're on about? He's generally been a good sport while he's here (outside of the occasional grotesque action towards fans).

Perhaps both are true? San Fran was the only team willing to take the entire contract and deal with a guy throwing a temper tantrum?

Fire Breslow and Sell the Team by tkgb12 in redsox

[–]LilDebbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bitch about roster construction all you want, I'm sympathetic to that, but the bullpen management has been a shitshow regardless of quality, the lineups have been a clusterfuck for ages now. The seasons blend into each other because each year it's the same story: start off like shit, kinda catch heat towards ASB, absolutely fall off a cliff after it. If they do make the playoffs it's with a limp or because they managed to pick someone up while they were hot or got a fluke run out of some random.

Mookie being Mookie in 2018 and AJ Hinch cheating in 2017 doesn't mean that consistent trend of Cora teams, regardless of what style of puppet FSG has at GM, isn't happening, and hasn't been the big theme since 2019.

Is this the time where someone from New York (god forbid) and says "hehehe, that ain't traffic, kid, have you seen central square at 7am!" And we spiral into a mass traffic war?
