Casas has 55 BB's, Devers has 42. Only 5 batters are on pace for 100 BB's: Soto, Schwarber, Olson, Happ, Ohtani.
Right now, Devers is who he is. He's not going to change.
If they really wanted to compete, they needed a guy that could go 6 innings consistently prior to the deadline. They didn't do that. That tells me they didn't really want to compete and they should have ____ at the _______.
Story could probably play 3B? His arm seems ok. That's A LOT of moving parts though. Devers to 1B. Story to 3B. New SS. New 2B. Not that they don't need a new IF.
No, but people kept saying "just wait until they come back." Wait for what? Three injured guys working on reduced innings and potentially reduced effectiveness for a few weeks? Fun!
I thought moon's point was that they drafted so many that they could move them off position? You draft an athletic SS and that guy (for example Antonio Anderson) becomes a 3B early on in MiLB. The people that rant about "they drafted so many SS's" will never get the point anyway. They drafted Blaze Jordan as a 3B and if he gets to MLB it most likely won't be at that position.

The MLB club that eventually signs Yamamoto would need to pay the Buffaloes a fee that is equal to 20% of the contract's first $25MM, plus 17.5% of the next $25MM and 15% of any dollars committed thereafter.
He turned 25 yesterday.
You're not the reason the Sox are playing LOSER BASEBALL. Hoping for injured players to come back and be miraculously 100% was a fool's errand. Seemed obvious to me, which is why I wanted to ____ at the ________.
