    People are overstating what Wacha, Hill and Eovaldi actually did in 2022.
  2. mvp 78
    A fluke season isn't always due to luck. Why was he never able to replicate the low BB rate?
  3. mvp 78
    Well, likely is the important word then. If it's likely than you gotta get under the cap.
  4. mvp 78
    MiLB contract and he can start in WOO.
  5. mvp 78
    A fool and his post are soon quoted. That is the immutable rule of TalkSox.
  6. mvp 78
    Why would they move Devers or Casas to DH? Turner isn't a good enough defensive 3b to mess with Devers and barely has more 1b innings than Casas.
  7. mvp 78
    Garcia is 89th percentile for arm strength and 74th for sprint speed. He gets a bad jump on balls, but I think he'd be better than Verdugo or Renfroe defensively.
  8. mvp 78
    It always is!
  9. mvp 78
    Career low BB rate and BABIP.
  10. mvp 78
    Dude is going to get yanked around like my dog's Buc-ee stuffy.
  11. mvp 78
    Don't praise the machine.
  12. mvp 78
    I don't feel like redoing your math, but: Bello 23 = Hill + Bello 22 Sale > Nate + Crawford Piveta = Piveta Whitlock >>> Whitlock + Winckowski (negative fWAR guy) Paxton + Houck + Crawford + Mata + Winckowski = Wacha

    To me, I don't care if it's 4th or 5th place. Both seasons suck.
  14. mvp 78
    That's your opinion which is fine. I just disagree with the idea that "the Sox signed Story to be SS so he has to play SS." I think the Sox signed Story to play baseball for the Red Sox. If he needs to play elsewhere, you figure it out.
  15. mvp 78
    I guess? I don't even know how much we were expecting out of him.
  16. mvp 78
    Not once moon has also packaged Soler and Garcia together in a trade.
  17. mvp 78
    Teams do get better without outside intervention (see the 2022 Baltimore Orioles), it's just not very likely.
  18. mvp 78
    Kluber was my guy from the beginning, but we'll see.
  19. mvp 78
    That would be after Justin Turner is no longer on the team.
  20. mvp 78
    Story was signed to provide value for the money he's being paid. His defense is BETTER at 2b IMO and provides more value to the team there. It would be a bad baseball decision to move him back to SS.
  21. mvp 78
    I think it's a bad idea. If I was in charge, I would have found a temporary solution at SS and left Story at 2b. I've said this over and over and over since the end of the year.
  22. mvp 78
    Yes, that is my biggest problem with all of it. I'm fully on board with the idea that their "damage control" is just making things worse and alienating fans even more than if they just said "we have a long term plan and Bogaerts was not a part of it at the price he wanted."
  23. mvp 78
    Then you are an idiot. Sorry. It's like a guy who buys a really nice car and never changes the oil or rotates the tires. If you know there is a potential issue with his throwing arm, it makes no sense to move him over to SS just because "we signed him to play there." That's what contingency plans are for.
  24. mvp 78
    Even if Eovaldi makes all his remaining starts and Devers hits like he did pre-ASB, the team misses the postseason.
  25. mvp 78
    A lot of posters on here still thought they had a chance for some reason. If they had traded JD in the offseason or didn't pick up JBJ, it never would have been up for discussion.
