  1. What will his arm be like post surgery?
  2. If Kiké is good at SS, Arroyo is injured and Verdugo is good in RF? Wouldn't they just put Story at 2b?
  3. @alexspeier James Paxton, in contrast to last year, is a healthy participant in this year’s spring training. It's like seeing bigfoot.
  4. @MacCerullo Alex Cora says Kiké Hernández will be the #RedSox shortstop, but: "The hope is for Trevor to come back and be healthy and play shortstop." Mondesi is just a backup then?
  5. @MacCerullo Alex Cora says as of now Christian Arroyo is the team's second baseman.
  6. @PeteAbe Cora is enthusiastic about how Mondesí looks coming off knee surgery. Said at this point all the others players are ready to go. Would be nice if he could stay healthy, but I don't see that happening at all.
  7. @PeteAbe Cora says the rotation decisions will wait until the end. Didn’t say the were necessarily committed to a five-man rotation. Obviously a lot of health questions with that group. Duh.
  8. I don't think Mata is going to be a starter long term. He should be a good MLB arm though. 2020: Eovaldi Perez Weber Mazza Godley Peacock/Brewer/Hart 2021: Eovaldi ERod Pivetta Richards Perez Sale/Houck 2022: Eovaldi Wacha Hill Pivetta Whitlock/Houck/Bello Winckowski/Crawford/Seabold 2023: Sale Kluber Bello Whitock Pivetta Paxton/Crawford/Winckowski/Walter/Mata How would you rank them if you didn't know how the results of that season? None of the rotations from 21 - 23 really stand out to me. They've all been underwhelming.
  9. 22 to 23 C > C 1B 2B >> 2B SS >> SS 3B = 3B RF CF > CF (Kiké is better than Duvall) LF DH = DH SP = SP RP The big changes are 1b and bullpen should be much more sound than last year while MIF is a HUGE downgrade.
  10. To me, that means there should be LOTS to talk about with all the changes.
  11. Is the banning of the shift really going to take the Rays and the Astros out of the playoff race? I don't believe the change in the shift rules is going to have an impact on the standings. I also don't think any player is going to have a long term dramatic swing in stats solely due to the shift.
  12. It's the first official day of ST. Cora and Bloom will have press conferences. 62 players will be in camp for now.
  13. There were a few years when it seemed like great Red Sox teams just struggled to beat the lowly O's. It's not about forecasting who is on the schedule, it's about how you are playing.
  14. All I did was look at the top 5 and run a simple calculation to determine how quick you should catch up. You'll probably get there sooner than that.
  15. I should change the wording to "it's just another reason to why it's more important for US to worry about the Red Sox and not who the schedule has them playing...."
  16. Zeferjahn has the tools to be a really solid MLB relief arm, but just has never put it together. Had more hopes for him in '22.
  17. He will most likely pass A700 in post count by the end of June.
  18. It's just another reason why it's more important for the Red Sox to worry about themselves and not who the schedule has them playing. If the rotation is healthy and the offense is hitting, they should be ok.
  19. Need to boost book sales somehow.
  20. They'll be moving to TN anyway.
  21. The same reason anyone hates a particular manager: personal preference.
  22. I think it's a reasonable position to state that you wouldn't want him back because of the baggage post-scandal. There were people that despised him long before that.
  23. Not the mama, not the mama!
  24. ^^^ Scared of Baltimore.
  25. The outright Cora haters don't post all that often anymore, but they have existed on here.
