Bloom was a Mo hire right? Sorry, but he's guilty by association. I want every bit of Mo stench removed from Busch.

That said, Anthony looks special, Teel might be damn good and Campbell looks like he may be the kind of player we hope Wetherholt turns into and they got him with a comp pick. With Anthony, Mayer, Teel, Campbell and Montgomery, the Sox have 5 guys who are probable top 50 prospects this off-season. Now is that 'special'? Eh...hard to say. If three of those guys are top 25 guys, it's pretty close. It's not the monster that Baltimore managed to put together, but it's a top 3-5 system pretty easily, IMO. Because it's showing a LOT of forward momentum. Guys like Montgomery and Campbell have been coming on really hard. I'll say this - I'd put it over any system in the NL Central. And Bloom really didn't get a ton of time to finishing polishing it up to his vision. There's a really good chance the next contending Red Sox team is built on the back of Bloom's efforts in rebuilding that system. |

They think its bad now, wait till they keep Mo in the org or stay the course, they think fans not coming to the ballpark is bas now? Try that and it'll be a ghost town at Bush in 2025.

He roped another one last night where he was able to get his arms extended.
And he really hit well from the moment he got back to Memphis. Tells me that, despite his prolonged pause in St. Louis, some of those changes may have actually stuck. Usually a week of stasis will break a mere hot streak. But if there were genuine mechanical changes that led to his better play in early August, those would surface again when he got an opportunity. They did. Can we please play the damn kid? And keep Turner Ward away from him? |

Didn't they sweep the Yankees a couple years ago during that 17 game winning streak?

Their refusal to spend on pitching for a true #1 (Gray isn’t a#1 and is older than signing a guy under 30) and inept development is catching up to them. So they go like 83-79 this year. What ****ing happens in the off-season? More of the same shit with the FO saying they improved from last year. I’ll be at the game today wearing black for the funeral in the bleachers. |
