    In comparison with what else is out there, I'm fine with it.

    Only 62 guys threw 150 innings last year. If he gets close, it's a good problem to have.

    @PeteAbe My understanding is the Red Sox owners were on a call with team execs here last night. Might be what shakes things loose with Bogaerts as the sides will meet again this morning.

    @mlbtraderumors Red Sox Meeting With Xander Bogaerts This Morning

    SoxProspects shows that he still has 2 options remaining.

    Dave's final gift. I think that's why Bloom said he needs to find a reliable guy that can provide innings. We should also probably expect one of the younger guys to function as a 5th starter again at some point.

    Sox SP's averaged exactly 5 innings pitched per start last season (21st in the league). In 2021? The averaged 5 IP (18th in the league). Back in 2018, they averaged 5 1/3 (17th in the league). It really hasn't changed much since Cora came onboard. While starters are throwing a little less, it's in line with the trend across MLB. At least now, there's an extra reliever you can put innings on as the rosters have expanded.

    If you're a famous person with a lot of $$$, there is no benefit to being on social media.

    To make room on the 40 man: Trade: Dalbec Duran Seabold DHern DFA/Trade: Downs Brasier Taylor Ort Something else?

    Rule 5 Draft is at 5pm today? WTH. It was better when it was in the morning. Sox have one open roster spot with Jansen and Martin pending.
  11. mvp 78
    I think he'd do better with the Mets.
  12. mvp 78
    Starters are currently: Sale Paxton Whitlock Bello Pivetta My concern is more towards Paxton not being able to keep his role as starter. I think Whitlock should be fine as a third starter. Yes, they do need to sign an SP though!

    With the Jansen signing, it looks like the bullpen shouldn't be as embarrassing as it has been the past few years. They seem to have a closer and a few high leverage arms at the moment, but who knows... Jansen - Closer Houck - 7/8 Schreiber - 7/8 Martin - 7/8 Kelly - Middle Relief Barnes - Middle Relief Joely - Lefty Winckowski - Swingman Maybe they'll look for another left handed guy to throw out there? They say Paxton will get the chance to start, but maybe he takes Winckowski's spot as swingman?

    That's actually really reasonable.
  15. mvp 78
    So your pejorative about him having a bad heart was more about him having ill intentions against opposing hitters then?
  16. mvp 78
    I guess it depends on the market. If there wasn't a lot of high end talent that didn't fit your needs? Sox needed OF, SS, SP. I honestly didn't see them going 30M on either OF or SP. I'm not sure Nimmo is the best fit for the current Sox OF construction. Judge would be, but they weren't outbidding everyone else. The starters that have been signed I didn't project to sign with the Sox either. Maybe 30x3 in another year?

    I always thought it was "marquee" like the sign, not marquis like the ranking. ... Per wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquee_player
  18. mvp 78
    If he was 30, he'd be getting a massive contract like Diaz.
  19. mvp 78
    His statcast numbers are still strong. He may trail off a little, but he can at least give you a Timlin like presence for 2 years if he struggles a little. He still k's a lot of guys and his velo hasn't dropped.
  20. mvp 78
    He signed a CLOSER with 79 saves the last two years. Sounds like a guy you should like?
  21. mvp 78
    Now I look forward to everyone typing Jensen all season long rather than Jansen.
  22. mvp 78
    Does this count as the MAJOR SIGNING?
  23. mvp 78
    I'd rather do one at 30, a few at 15-20 and the rest just fill in as needed. The 7-9 was a big flashing warning sign to all of us. Yikes. It's Bloom's bed that he's making. If it doesn't work out. He's gone. No final judgement until 4/1 tho.
  24. mvp 78
    Something had happened. A fuse blew and I had gone out of my skull. I became conscious that a steady torrent of obscenities pounded out of me as I screamed. YOU NO GOOD DAMN KNUCKLE ROTTER Did you hear what he just said? Ralphie, your mother!
  25. mvp 78
    The Padres are the new interest kings. Sorry Bloom. You are 2nd best at that now too...
