    So we can start the season with 4 #4’s and #5’s plus whatever Mr. Glass Sale can give us. Maybe Buchoolz is looking for work.

    Off the top of my head, the Red Sox ,at a minimum, need: 2 starting pitchers 1 Shortstop 1 Corner OFer 1 Power bat (could be the Corner OFer) 1 closer (Committee never works and the 9th inning is different) This is the bare minimum needed to compete in the Division.
  3. a700hitter
    And more often than not people use that term for these types of signings.
  4. a700hitter
    Bells, you get me. LOL! It has always irked me when people call these signings “low risk high reward”.

    Anthony Franco on Paxton: Someone finally got it right.

    Congrats to DD too taking his 4th franchise to the World Series.
  7. a700hitter
    I am happy for Christian Vasquez and Dusty Baker.
  8. a700hitter
    Schwarber... pfft.... what would we do with him.
  9. a700hitter
    The Red Sox have never been good at drafting or developing quality pitchers. They have 1 or 2 good ones in each 10 year period.
  10. a700hitter
    He was as good as they come.
  11. a700hitter
    Yep, he missed a work out without being excused. The Yankees have issued a fine.
  12. a700hitter
    Unless the plan was to suck. Then it worked out perfectly.

    Congratulations to bkzwhitestrican on the 2022 league Championship. Your team was the class of the league in 2022. Also, Congratulations to Hugo who won his division and was the runner up. Hopefully, you will be back again to defend your titles in 2023.

    Wink’s metrics are horrible. He’s awful, and he was the sleeper in the Benintendi trade. LOL!
  15. a700hitter
    Stinkowski is in. It’s only downhill from here and it is already 7-0. And we don’t have Plawecki to pitch in these games anymore.
  16. a700hitter
    And Correa is an expert cheater too.
  17. a700hitter
    I agree with that.
  18. a700hitter
    No, I haven’t made a determination on German after 1 inning. He hasn’t been given much of a look, so I don’t think they will be looking for him to make a big MLB contribution in 23.
  19. a700hitter
    Maybe you feel better about 23 than I do. Hopefully, Bloom makes some acquisitions that will make me more positive.
  20. a700hitter
    The only one that I overlooked was Wong who is the regular backup catcher with Vasquez gone. I like his power and athleticism. I didn’t mention the others, because Wink stinks and leads the league in hard contact — not a bright spot. I wish I could ignore Ort. Seabold and German haven’t had much of an opportunity to show anything and they haven’t seized the day with those opportunities. Basically, we have seen Bello, Cassas and Wong as a glimpse of future players.
  21. a700hitter
    I like Cassas’s swing and approach. He is one of the bright spots. Refsnyder is a journeyman type. Crawford has not impressed me much. Whitlock took a step backward this year and ended up on the IL. Bello has a live arm, but is not MLB ready. He is a bright spot, but I am not looking for him to carry a major load in 23. Schreiber is a bullpen guy and a crapshoot for 23. Pivetta isn’t a new player for the Red Sox. I like Story, but not at the expense of Bogey.
  22. a700hitter
    The instant gratification group that waited until age 45 to see a championship
  23. a700hitter
    Sure it does, but a precipitous backslide is alarming to me. There have been no positive developments in the 2022 season for the 2023 MLB team.
  24. a700hitter
    I didn’t act like you are saying. I said that I have read that Bloom has greatly improved our farm, but I asked when we could see it help at the MLB level. I haven’t see it in August and September at the MLB level. I think it is a legitimate question.
  25. a700hitter
    He was never in charge in Tampa, and they have done just fine without him.
