Let's go look and see what Management looked like in 2014. VP, Asssistant GM Brian O'Halloran Director, Player Development Ben Crockett Assistant Director, Amateur Scouting Gus Quattlebaum Senior Director, Minor League Operations Raquel Ferreira I guess these are the 4 Horsemen that we can blame?

It's the owners. The new market inefficiency is just going out and signing players right away it seems.
-
So is that his ceiling? Not what he did in 2022 or 2021?

I think Reynolds will be too expensive. If I'm spending prospect capital, I'm using it towards the rotation.

If Haniger was able to stay healthy, he'd really enjoy hitting at Fenway as he's a dead pull hitter. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/mitch-haniger-571745?stats=statcast-r-hitting-mlb

@NBCSEdgeBB Red Sox, Rangers 'among most serious' on Haniger

I can see the argument that Raffy COULD gain weight and hurt his career. However, a lot of the negative perception is due to the shape of his face and the fact that he's just generally a bigger guy. I think if he didn't come right after Pablo Sandoval, we wouldn't be as concerned. I think Betts plays hard, but I wouldn't say he's as reckless as Pedroia, who often had shorter seasons due to nagging injuries and had a knack for diving headfirst into first base or whatever. I think there's a bigger risk that a guy like Casas doesn't age well. He's already had a few injuries, carried a lot of weight when he was younger and is generally unathletic. If I had to bet money on someone having a shorter career, it'd be him.

So it's the MVP award, not the overall numbers?
-
Stanton's Monster season? Devers had the same fWAR that Stanton had prior his deal. Harper had one big year, then 3 decent, but not great years before his deal. Giving out a 300M deal because a guy had a 9 fWAR season 4 years earlier doesn't make sense to me.
-
Crybabies , pinkhats, pollyannas... What will you guys think of next? Very productive discourse!
-
I disagree that he's had weight issues or that his nagging injuries are anything worse than what Betts has gone through during his career. Arguably, Betts has had worse injuries that has impacted his game more severely (see 2021).
-
Even saying that once, just sets you up to look dumb.
-
Betts is probably a HOFer unless he gets some horrific injury. Bogaerts is off the ballot in one year unless he ages very well. Devers remains to be seen.
-
No, Devers never had Harper's 9.3 fWAR in 2015, but he's matched all of his other seasons. Stanton through age 25 21.5 fWAR. Devers through age 25 18.1 fWAR, which would be much closer to Stanton's number if 2020 was a full season.

They won't outbid anyone for Nimmo.
-
He probably won't be, but it would be fun in the short term.
-
They already have the mosaic.
-
I'll use the FanGraphs AAV if listed: Contreras 17 Senga 17 Xander 28 Kluber 11 Conforto 12 Remaining 5 goes towards an extension with Raffy.

I'm ok with part A, part B can go suck eggs.

My guess Mayer Casas Bleis Rafaela Yorke Mata Romero Perales Walter Anthony

Andrews 2/20 Kluber 1/11 Senga?

A real answer, from you? Wow!

Yup.
