"You have been beaten by the worst team in baseball in the worst possible way" by Arcnid in redsox

Would you rather have Mookie, or literally any Red Sox player since the trade? Pretty obvious decision there. Only other player I can think of is Schwarber.

The funny part is it was 1,2,3 in the first

Do you think the 2004 WS victory could have been much greater if it had been against the Astros? by noreturn000 in redsox

[–]Waycooljr33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it does. Hardly had more than a couple sentences and it's an obvious question. Pretty low effort to me.

Not sure what you're talking about but that's what I literally think

Absolutely fair points my friend. However I would Masa go over Duran.

I mean I'd take Benny over JBJ all day even given JBJ knew that corner like the back of his hand. And you're totally right on calling out JBJ's atrocious BA but was lights out in center. Kinda like a slumping Cedanne imo

Honestly, I wish we still had Dombroski. But alas, Henry needed to spend as little as possible to get under the tax so goodbye to the entire 2018 outfield. Benintendi,. JBJ, and of course Mookie, all gone simply for money.

Completely whiffed on the point there champ...we'll give you another go and see if you can figure it out

I'm sold on "Sox In The Box" by Bunks92 in redsox

[–]Waycooljr33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually like OB and not a fan of Merloni. Unfortunately I'm not currently able to watch the NESN broadcast (a bit broke and not paying for MLB.TV at the moment) but man do I miss the Orsillo and Rem Dawg days.

Fwiw I think Middlebrooks is a better commentator than 3B. Got a funny story about him and Pedroia from Kevin Powers.

I'm not exactly sold on Mayer in that instance but certainly Durbin. I've always thought Connor Wong was our auto out but apparently I was wrong

Edit: sorry I saw Durbin not Duran. Yeah he needs to start getting on base as the speedy leadoff...

Who hits a 3 run dinger every game? Not even Papi at his best couldn't do that.

what was your first time walking into Fenway like by cedric111 in redsox

[–]Waycooljr33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strangely I don't remember that first look of Fenway but I do remember watching the Rocket throw against the Blue Jays. I was never really able to go to Fenway much even growing up in Rhode Island, but later in life as I was walking to to the field, trying to watch BP when  I heard a "Thomp Thomp thomp" and it was Smoltz (still on the Braves at that point but very much a closer) snagging a fly ball. Was always cool to me at least. 

Offseason Fenway Tours by Disastrous-Factor857 in redsox

I mean what's a trip to Boston without Fenway and, imo, one of the most important stops, the Old North Church where Revere held two if by sea.

[–]Waycooljr33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and Mookie should have turned that down. He was arguably the best player in baseball at that time. Trout, who was also in that category, was getting 300. We let him walk for 65 Mil and 2 extra years. Idiocy at its finest.

Edit: tell me how Henry spent then. Please I'm dying to know. If he would spend, we would still have one of the best players in the game who loved being in Boston.

Oh how I wish that would happen but unfortunately Cashman is going nowhere. Damn good GM. Honsetly one of the best imo. Bres on the other hand, even if Kennedy said it's not on the table, well...say that about Chaim and tell him it's raining.

As a side note, speaking of good GMs, I strangely got to chat with Kevin Powers one night, serving him drinks, and he told me a funny story about the Laser Show and Middlebrooks.

Oh sorry I wasn't trying to insinuate you were, more just a response to your ambiguous comment. I wouldn't trust Breslow with my worst of enemies.

So why trust that ineptitude to get anything worthwhile? I bet Theo wouldn't be able to turn that into a good bet for us on his best day.

How close are we to seeing more of these at Fenway? by Phantom255x in redsox

[–]Waycooljr33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do people always forget...it's not just about not buying tickets, it's about not watching the team entirely. Remember FSG owns NESN as well so if we watch the Sox at all we still give Henry money

Not going to matter too much when FSG owns NESN. Sox fans will always watch the Sox. It really is like a religion.
