Red Sox/MLB 2023 Regular Season VIII - Chaim Bloom FIRED

[IveGotToBeMe]

Chris Hansen has his own problems to worry about, and they’re considerably more troubling than whether Cora remains employed at Fenway.

2 - your "facts" about Hansen are not entirely accurate

5-12 since the Barraclough game…

If only Cora pulled him. Poor Chaim.

No thanks. Appreciate the advice though. /S

Chris Hansen: Take a seat. What are you doing here, Wander? What's the plan tonight?
Wander Franco: Nothing, just came to hang out
Chris Hansen: Well I have the chat logs

Dave Bush can't come back next year, right?

I was mad at Bloom for refusing to sell before. I can't believe he could have got rid of Sale. That's worse than I even imagined.

Would be insane if he does

Every so often, I’ll go on YouTube and rewatch the old TCAPs.

He’s done a couple of follow up series since that, but nothing beats the originals.

No Talks Between James Paxton, Red Sox

James Paxton returned to a big league mound for the first time since 2021, when he pitched just 1 1/3 …

Why?

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

Sox fired Bloom so he wouldn't low-ball Ohtani.

 

[Mione134]

Why?

Because I hate his face.

Well time to get some of the major leaguers to join too. Devers ass should be there.

The defense being atrocious is unacceptable.

if they sign Ohtani the defense will once again be trash with both Devers and Yoshida needing to play the field. I don’t really think he’s a roster fit unless you trade Yoshida.

And then Devers can run a hitting camp for Story and we're back in business

Are we one or two free agents away from contending in 2024 and approaching the offseason as such? Because I'd go long on Shohei, live with poor defense in 2024 so in 2025 Shohei can either pitch for you, or if he doesn't ever pitch again, at least he'd give you alright corner OF defense.

Given they were technically still in the race at that point, I can see why he'd get cold feet on trading Turner, though that would've been a great and much needed return.

Not selling high on Paxton and Kenley is inexcusable in retrospect. But again, I think he kind of was in a no-win position at the deadline. If he sold everyone when they were only about 2.5 or 3 games out at that point, they'd be killing him and the stands would've been emptied a month earlier. But given what's transpired since then, it obviously would've been the right thing to do.
