  1. https://beyondthemonster.substack.com/p/can-the-red-sox-rely-on-alex-verdugo A long feature on the issue of Verdugo's defense. Frankly, I think he's not going to be very good in RF even if he gets consistent reps out there. Year by year he's gotten slower. The plays he was noted as earning "5 stars" for were kind of embarrassing TBH. My guess is that he'll be below zero for OAA and DRS in RF. He might not be a disaster, but I'd expect like -3DRS and -2OAA. UZR/150 should be closer to zero than the -17 he had in RF last season.
  2. Because of his name, his history or his arm?
  3. @BillKoch25 Red Sox had previously announced 11 other non-roster invitees to spring training: - Ps Matt Dermody, Norwith Gudino, Oddanier Mosqueda, Ryan Sherriff - Cs Jorge Alfaro, Caleb Hamilton, Ronaldo Hernández - OFs Greg Allen, Narciso Crook, Raimel Tapia - INF/OF Niko Goodrum This group should have more impact on the MLB roster this season IMO.
  4. @jcmccaffrey Red Sox announce 10 non-roster invitees to big league camp: RHPs Dan Altavilla, Taylor Broadway, Durbin Feltman, Victor Santos and Chase Shugart INFs Christian Koss and Matthew Lugo INF/OFs Ryan Fitzgerald and Nick Sogard C Stephen Scott Aside from Scott and Lugo, doesn't seem like anyone else interesting in this group. I believe other NRI's have already been announced.
  5. Well, the return on the Beni deal could have been worse. @NBCSEdgeBB Report: Khalil Lee accused of domestic abuse
  6. No, we have standards here...
  7. I think his defense is good at SS, but I think his defense is elite in CF. I'm not sure he has GG SS defense.
  8. I don't think the Sox see him as an everyday player.
  9. I love this comment especially: "all the rookies transition into good big leaguers without painful adjustments." There are 3 rookies listed with one being a backup catcher and another being a 29 year old from overseas that the Sox have scouted for and drooled over for years.
  10. That damn CRACK medical staff.
  11. It's more about knowing where the public will put their money, not where the Sox will end up.
  12. The count is talking about something else entirely.
  13. Not even close. Just because you don't like a poster doesn't mean you have to defame them.
  14. Vegas Over/Under: 76.5 I kind of feel good about the over.
  15. And and OFers glove.
  16. With Sox > 10 Innings in 2022: 4th worst Hard Hit % 10th worst in HR/9 11th worst in Exit Velo There were a lot of hard hit balls, but he kept them in the park. However you feel about Winckowski is how you should feel about Crawford. They probably have the same feeling. Fringy rotation arm. Maybe can stick long term in the pen?
  17. I'd probably call up Tapia for LF and have Yoshida DH at that point.
  18. I think we'd see Ort before Mills. I think they want to tinker a bit with Mills before he shows up. They may even just keep Crawford and Winckowski down in AAA as starters and bring Ort up as a reliever.
  19. No, that's what Turner was signed for?
  20. Yes, but a 40th slip has to say Devers. That's the devil's bargain.
  21. Oh. My. God...
  22. Maybe all these little moves won't matter all that much.
  23. I thought bigfoot was just a robot André the Giant?
  24. I think the trade for Bleier makes the addition of Chafin highly unlikely.
  25. Put all the names in a hat, close your eyes and pull the name out.
