Good luck, Mookie!

This lifelong Red Sox fan says thanks for the memories! I remember 5 years ago thinking what an awesome bunch of atheletes we had on tap. You produced. You made great moments and memories.

And I don't blame you one damn bit for maximizing your profit potential...because that is how the game is being played.

Congrats LA....you have one of the great players in this game, coming in at peak. Enjoy! A real 2 way player. JBJ gets a lot attention on his D, but Mookie is in his class. And Mookie just makes offense with his bat, intellect, and feet.

A class guy, totally normal in his verbal communications with New England media - he measured his words and let his field game speak for itself.

It was a good run, I wish you could have finished in Boston, but can't blame you a bit for taking whatever the market bears.

Of course, eventually, I won't be attending cuz they will pass the salaries on to us, the consumer, abd it will be way too expensive to attend.

not happy to see the Dodgers get even stronger in the NL.

(and as a Gamecock fan, I pull for the Sox and Jackie Bradley Jr.)
