@HebHammer94 Don’t be fooled. Remember he said this 1 day after he refused to let them ask questions or “share information.” This is a quote to sound good in the media and that’s all. Actions not words.

Might be the first time I’ve liked a Breslow quote.
Gordo@BOSSportsGordo
Craig Breslow on why he didn’t take questions from players yesterday: “I think the most important thing, just given the timing and how this all came together, was to get the group together and make sure that they heard from me and then give them a chance to spend some time with Trace.” (via @SmittyOnMLB)

“Sam Kennedy will lie to our faces, probably over zoom, and not face anyone in person at 10:40am at Camden Yards.”
@RedSox @skennedysox
Tim Healey@timbhealey
Sam Kennedy and Craig Breslow will hold a news conference at 10:40 a.m. at Camden Yards. Chad Tracy will speak at noon.

If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment.
This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.

Just want everyone to know that as a powerlifter I was on the @Pioneer_fit train yearrrrrsssss before all these pro baseball players were. We are the OGs

"If Bregman Wanted to Be Here, He'd Be Here" CEO Sam Kennedy's Slimy Red Sox Blame Game Is Bullshit s.barstool.link/c/article-3563…
English
I hope @skennedysox checks his mentions after every terrible presser he gives so he can see just how much Red Sox nation hates him.
English
@SmittyOnMLB @byJulianMack The Red Sox should stuff @skennedysox in a closet and never let him speak publicly again. He single handedly turns off more fans than anyone else in that group and that’s hard to do.
English
When asked about no-trade clauses, Sam Kennedy said Bregman ultimately would be here if he wanted to be here.
Asked if the Red Sox would have given him the no-trade clause if asked for it, Kennedy said that’s “theoretical” and “hard to know.”
He didn’t want to say if Bregman did, in fact, ask for one, Kennedy said, “I don’t want to go back and look at the finer points of a negotiation”
English
@Steve_Perrault Not your best take. You don’t trade a top 10 hitter in his prime and not get a huge return, no matter the circumstances.
English
My biggest takeaway on the Caleb Durbin trade is that there are still a ton of people on this app that don’t understand the Devers trade was never about what they got back.
English
@HebHammer94 @JonHeyman Remember when they intentionally shipped Devers out about an hour before they left for that week+ west coast road trip so they didn’t have to face fans and then they only did zoom interviews for the next week.
English
@JonHeyman The Red Sox Fan Fest couldn't have been timed any better. They didn't have to hear it from fans after missing out on Bregman and tonight there's a huge Patriots game that will distract from the Bregman news. Literally could not have been better timing for the Red Sox FO.
English
Red Sox will be fine (Sonny Gray, Willson Contreras, still working) but their fanfest wasn’t well-timed

Tell me you didn’t love the contract or the defense at third. Fine. But trading Rafael Devers in a salary dump just to accommodate a one-year pillow contract for Alex Bregman before he signed elsewhere will go down as one of the biggest fuck ups in professional sports history.
English
@LouMerloni No. Any way you cut it they have not replaced Devers’ offense. Devers was 1 player of 9 on the field. You can’t just add the production of multiple players up and say that makes up for Devers. They can’t replace him and they didn’t come close with that BS trade.
English
Anthony and Contreras don't do that?
Edwin 🇩🇴@edwinmoq
@LouMerloni Contreras is a improvement but they're yet to replace Devers' production

I’m about to turn 42 years old in February. I’m the same age as Pedroia. I’m old enough to to recall Mike Greenwell and Jody Reed’s impact on the Red Sox

The Cardinals and Red Sox have discussed a trade that would send INF/OF Brendan Donovan to Boston, according to people briefed on the conversations, per @Ken_Rosenthal and @WillSammon. No deal is close, but Breslow has already flipped 5 pitchers to Bloom this offseason.
ZXX
@redseatradio 2/34 isn’t tragic though. That’s good for an unproven commodity.

My god his market must have been tragic

BREAKING: Third baseman Munetaka Murakami and the Chicago White Sox are in agreement on a two-year, $34 million contract, sources tell ESPN. Murakami, 25, is the single-season home run champion in Japan and will bring his prodigious power to a rebuilding White Sox team.
English
@Jared_Carrabis Sam Kennedy and crew have showed you over and over who they are. LIARS. Why would anyone think differently?
English
Legitimately fucking embarrassing. How can this organization continue to talk such a big game and routinely not back it up? You say you need a big bat, this dude right here was the PERFECT FIT, and you come in with some fuckin’ Miami Marlins ass offer. EMBARRASSING.
Gordo@BOSSportsGordo
Update: The Red Sox offer to Pete Alonso was for fewer years and significantly less money than he got from the Orioles, according to @timbhealey.
English
@redseatradio Mayer would be at third. Bregman would be gone.
English
Would LOVE to see Marte come in man but boy I really don’t wanna see Mayer end up being the odd man out (just a selfish love the player take)
Jon Heyman@JonHeyman
Red Sox are among teams interested in D-Backs superstar 2B Ketel Marte. Gives them another star option after incumbent, coveted Bregman and Bichette. Mariners, Pirates, Rays, Tigers, Jays among others that fit KM. @BNightengale mentioned a couple of those teams 1st
English
@HebHammer94 @TJStats So Duran, Devers, and Garcia for Ragans?? Nahh man
English
@TJStats I'd never say another bad word about Craig Breslow if he somehow pulled this off
English
What if the Royals and Red Sox made a blockbuster deal centered around Jarren Duran and Cole Ragans?
Here is my mock trade that would see the pair of All-Stars swap teams
English
@HebHammer94 @RafaelaEnjoyer Really good one. Actually made me chuckle.
English
@RafaelaEnjoyer The A’s ended up losing to teams that spent more money on better players
English
Billy this is Sonny Gray. For the last three seasons he has been basically the same pitcher as Dylan Cease, and marginally leads him in almost all stat categories. He cost $21 million instead of $210 million.
His defect? None. I literally have no idea why people are complaining
Sammy James🔺@HebHammer94
Not to be a Negative Nancy but the Red Sox being the smartest guy in the room (lol) and trading for Sonny Gray while the Blue Jays giga chad it up and sign Dylan Cease… feels like a big kick where it hurts. Red Sox need more. FanGraphs projections don’t win rings. Sorry nerds.
