I hear calls for John Farrell’s head on a daily basis, but he didn’t trade for Drew Pomerantz (the team is 0-5 in his starts) sign David Price, trade for Abad (most appropriate player name ever) or Ziegler or Kimbrel. It’s understandable that the Sox wanted to go for it this year, but trading for National League pitchers (in particular, National League west pitchers) never works. I disagree, then, that he is not a dumb man and I wish the team would wise up and dump him before the farm system is completely decimated and the big league club is full of bloated can’t-play-in-the-American-League hangers-on. Or has that already happened?

dont forget Javier guerra

“The good of the Red Sox season can be found due to the young position players already on the team in Jackie Bradley, Mookie Betts, Xander Bogaerts, Andrew Shaw, and Andrew Benintendi. ”

Travis shaw, not andrew.

No one complained when the Sox landed Price; they shouldn’t complain now.
