The Myth of being contenders year after year for an extended period of time.

Um, who developed him?

Not what you said.

You said he DRAFTED him.

Nice try.

And you really think Theo developed him?? He was down in the minors working with him everyday?

 

[KBIB]

To support what you were saying.
Baseball America's Organizational Talent Ranks during the Theo era and heading into 2012 right after he left.

2003: 27
2004: 23
2005: 21
2006: 8
2007: 9
2008: 2
2009: 13
2010: 5
2011:17(The drop here can be pretty well attributed to the AGonz deal)
2012: 9

But I thought Theo had a stacked farm system when he got the job?


Theo did have a stacked farm system, after he built it.

Where did I say he drafted him?

I said;

The Red Sox minor league system was in shambles, with no first round pick the year before or the year he took over and still got Lester in the second round

Meaning even without a first round pick Theo still got a quality guy in the second round he could develop.

Are you really that daft? Whats next, spelling lames or did you already pull that trump card out the obtuse deck? This isn't Lady Antelbellum, you don't start when I stop unless you consider the steady replies of textual diarrhea you have been crowing to be some sort of back up concerto.

Hey, how about you talk about how the Red Sox system was stacked when Theo got it? Maybe we should give him a twenty year window?

And exactly how did Theo manage to get a quality guy in the second round five months before he took over as GM??

Really??

Troll on brother.

When in doubt, troll it out.

Whos trolling? The person bleating on like a girl who sat down pantsless on broken glass about how the Cubs are not spending money to field a competitive team when the owner and GM boldly stated they were gonna build the team the correct way and even going as far as saying they don't have the money to get better players and pretty much crippling the OP just this week?

Or the fan who knows it is what it is and considering nothing has gone right for over a century who am I to question a different approach when the guy in charge has a history of actually winning a World Series?

Gotta hurt, eh? But don't let the whole "youz iz a trollz" blather go to waste. Its an immature reaction when somebody doesn't agree with your putrid delusions and I am almost positive you can get some more mileage out of it. Its kind of desperate, but so is going on about a franchise you have no control over and watching you defend your opinion go down the drain, just sayin.

Merlot?

So Lester wasn't on the Red Sox?

[KBisBack!]

Lester was drafted in June of 2002.

Theo took over as GM in November of 2002.

Read a fucking calendar and figure it out.

Lester was drafted in June of 2002.

Theo took over as GM in November of 2002.

Read a fucking calendar and figure it out.

He phrased it awkwardly, if you read it again you can make out that since he was talking about the draft the year before he took over not having a first rounder that he still got Lester inherited after he had been drafted int he second round. Didn't make too much sense the way he typed it though.

 

[KBisBack!]

He may have phrased it awkwardly or he may not have had a clue what he was talking about yet again.

Regardless, he is a troll. Clear as day.

So what you are saying is;

Theo got Lester in the second round.

Good job, champ.


Tell me now, where was this stacked Minor league system Theo inherited in Boston?

I'm going to close this thread and have you guys open up a new thread.

I'm also going to point out the rules that you implicitly agreed to by virtue of using this forum. You can read at the following link:

I'm sure you guys all have excellent points blah blah blah, but seriously, stop being assholes.

FIN.
