He again put up huge numbers, made his first All-Star team, was a Silver Slugger finalist, and finished eighth in voting for AL MVP. On Friday, it was announced that the 28-year-old received the sixth-...2198Sat, 14 Dec 2024 05:32:12 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/big-picture-thoughts-on-garrett-crochet-and-what-comes-next-r2195/It’s hard to describe how low the vibes were on Tuesday night. The Red Sox had just watched reported top target Max Fried depart to the hated Yankees, just two days after learning Juan Soto would be joining the New York Mets. Then came a series of reports that sparked widespread panic, the most...2195Sat, 14 Dec 2024 01:40:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/to-trade-or-not-to-trade-masataka-yoshida-r2185/With free agents quickly coming off the board, it looks like the Red Sox' best chance of adding this offseason will come via trade. In order to add via trade though, you have to subtract. Names like Marcelo Myers, Kyle Teel, Tristan Casas, and Wilyer Abreu have all been mentioned in trade rumors...2185Fri, 13 Dec 2024 11:58:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/the-red-sox-should-be-excited-about-trevor-story-r2191/Earlier this week, @Davy Andrews laid out a pretty strong case for why Trevor Story — who has half of his original six-year, $140-million deal remaining — just isn’t going to live up to that massive contract. Story's bat has fallen off a cliff in recent years, especially in terms of strikeout r...2191Thu, 12 Dec 2024 17:03:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/would-alex-bregman-be-a-good-fit-for-the-red-sox-r2192/The Boston Red Sox are in pursuit of talent to help transform their team into a playoff contender. After missing out in the Juan Soto Sweepstakes, the team has continued trying to make moves, finally connecting with the trade for Garrett Crochet on Wednesday. When it comes to the offense, howeve...2192Thu, 12 Dec 2024 16:05:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/breaking-down-garrett-crochet-the-newest-red-sox-ace-r2190/Well, that escalated quickly. A few minutes before 2:00 PM Eastern on Wednesday, Craig Breslow’s appearance on MLB Network was cancelled. Moments after that announcement, the reason for his no-show started rippling through both the internet and the Trinity Ballroom at the Hilton Anatole in Dalla...2190Thu, 12 Dec 2024 01:20:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/red-sox-stay-busy-trade-with-yankees-for-catcher-carlos-narv%C3%A1ez-r2193/Coming over from the Yankees is twenty-six-year-old catcher Carlos Narváez, who made his major league debut this past season. In a small sample size, Narváez appeared in six games for the Yankees, slashing .231/.333/.231 across 13 at-bats. Narváez spent most of the season in Triple A, playing 96...2193Thu, 12 Dec 2024 01:00:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/breaking-red-sox-trade-for-white-sox-ace-garrett-crochet-r2189/The Red Sox are finalizing a deal that would address their biggest need this offseason: finding an ace. Jeff Passan is reporting that the Red Sox are acquiring White Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet for a top package of prospects. Ken Rosenthal reports that the package includes top catc...2189Wed, 11 Dec 2024 19:18:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/rounding-up-the-red-sox-free-agent-and-trade-rumors-from-the-winter-meetings-r2188/The Winter Meetings are in full swing and free-agent signings are starting to come quickly. Things are really moving, unless you’re a Red Sox fan. The Red Sox haven’t made a move this week, and with the notable exception of Corbin Burnes, the pitchers they’ve been linked to, Max Fried, Blake Sne...2188Wed, 11 Dec 2024 17:45:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/should-anyone-actually-be-untouchable-r2186/According to Chris Cotillo of MassLive, the Red Sox have made Jarren Duran, Roman Anthony, and Kristian Campbell ‘untouchable.' On the surface, this makes perfect sense. Duran was the breakout star of 2024, Anthony is the top prospect in all of baseball, and after storming through the farm syste...2186Wed, 11 Dec 2024 11:53:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/the-red-sox-should-be-worried-about-trevor-story-r2184/We need to talk about Trevor Story. The shortstop has played through three of the six years on his contract with the Red Sox. Over those first three years, he has played in one season’s worth of games, run a wRC+ of 87 (making him 13% worse than the average batter), and posted 3.5 fWAR. Accordin...2184Tue, 10 Dec 2024 11:56:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/what-it-means-that-the-red-sox-tried-to-land-juan-soto-r2183/Welp. In the end, the outcome we had all feared and the one that made the most sense was the one that came to fruition. Juan Soto is going to be a New York Met for the rest of his major league career. He will win MVPs, reach the 500 home run club, and enter Cooperstown wearing the orange an...2183Mon, 09 Dec 2024 16:00:03 +0000
