    If they are basically done an only add bit parts: C- (I like Sonny Gray a lot more the most posters on here)
  2. mvp 78
    You are definitely not. We would have figured it out a long time ago. He has a very distinctive posting style.
  3. mvp 78
    What's the silly part? That Bregman wanted a no trade clause or that the Sox wouldn't give one?
  4. mvp 78
    I'd rather a FA too, but Suarez is a stepdown from Bregman. They are too cheap to get Bo so that's not going to happen. Maybe they just call the Cardinals about Arenado don't give up any top 30 prospects.
  5. mvp 78
    They were close, but not willing to budge on the dollars or no trade clause. Signed Breggie for a year to move Devers off 3b. Traded Devers for crap. Didn't re-sign Breggie. Nice 12 months!
  6. mvp 78
    They've improved in some ways and have taken steps back in others. I think the org was stronger on 4/1/25 than it will be on 4/1/26.
  7. mvp 78
    He said that in the offseason and then the second Bregman got to ST, he didn't play a lick of 2b. Didn't even take a grounder on the right side of the IF.
  8. mvp 78
    I think Theo and DD were able to move the needle a little bit. Bloom and Breslow are not. They don't have the juice with Henry. Maybe Breslow just doesn't want to spend either because of what the models say?
  9. mvp 78
    If it goes back to AGon and before, it's obviously JH.
  10. mvp 78
    If we found out he was, he'd be banned.
  11. mvp 78
    I'm good now. Thanks!!!
  12. mvp 78
    No.
  13. mvp 78
    There's no way the Sox should give Suarez 3 years. No. I'd rather they go any other route than that.
  14. mvp 78
    I agree. I think the rotation is very strong and people are underselling Gray. The bullpen is decent, but could use another arm. This is really different from the lineups we've seen the previous 60 years as it's pitcher heavy and the offense feels light. The top of the lineup just seems really weak and incomplete to me. For a team that is supposedly trying to be in the playoff picture, I think they need to figure it out really quick.
  15. mvp 78
    Sox aren't paying that.
  16. mvp 78
    It's year 3 of Breslow, we may start to hear murmurs around the trade deadline like we did in year 3 of Bloom.
  17. mvp 78
    Breggie wanted this deal to be his last team. He saw the Sox trade Devers away midseason. I think he knew they would also be willing to spin Breggie to another club at some point. Going back to AGon and CC, the Sox have only given partial no trade clauses. Why? "Organizational philosophy."
  18. mvp 78
    The Sox had a big offer out there, I guess they just didn't want to take it one step further to adjust their deferrals and add a no trade clause. Sox just do the "take it or leave it" thing and players always end up leaving.
  19. mvp 78
    I think that's the real rub. He should be a very good to great player as he grows, but it will be his first full MLB season. Expecting him to lead the team offensively is just too much at this point.
  20. mvp 78
    Suarez is an awful fielder and k's too much. The only good thing is that he likes pulling the ball. Maybe he's a guy that gets hot for a month or two. Not sure I'd want him for more than a year.
  21. mvp 78
    If he's on the IL for 7 weeks, they'll get a 4th ARB year for Casas. They should a billion % do that. He has a serious injury and he's not going to be ready for ST or Opening Day.
  22. mvp 78
    Cora wanted to move on from Devers and have his buddy Bregman around. He just didn't realize that Breslow wouldn't be able to get a contract across the finish line. I wonder if he's having second thoughts now with that big hole at the top of the lineup?
  23. mvp 78
    There are only so many moves that are available to him. It has been reported that he's not able to work with very many teams which is why he keeps going back to the Cardinals to make deals. He is financially strung by the models and/or JH so the best FA's will never come here long term. At some point, he'll run out of prospects to deal (Sox already ranked 14th on BA). If there's a plan B, it probably isn't as good for 2026-7 as Bregman would have been. I don't think the Bregman deal would have been a slam dunk to work out, but we were told that the Sox are in a WS contention window right now. If so, they aren't acting like it.
  24. mvp 78
    We can't speak to what JH will do, only what to the ramifications are for going over each CBT threshold. If you can afford to go over the 1st, you may as well go over the 2nd IMO! The 3rd is a different issue as it impacts draft strategy and I can see how that is a no go for many organizations.
  25. mvp 78
    NO 2022: 240M Devers signs extension 2023: 214M 2024: 222M 2025: 243M 2026: 234M+? How is the Devers extension the demarcation line? '23 and '24 were both lower than '22? '25 was basically flat from '22.
