I think he could be a little cheaper due to age, QO and maybe his comfort level in BOS?
-
Hard to say what Ward is? Even pre-surgery, he seemed to get bye in spite of his high bb rate. SoxProspects liked him, but were unsure how his stuff would play at higher levels. Walter should be a fair back end of the rotation guy, but coming the injury is a question mark. Always old for his level, but did well in AA. Murphy is probably just a reliever, I'll give you that. They may give him a few spot starts. Mata should be the best out of this bunch. I think he'd be a lights out late inning guy if he scrapped one of his offspeed pitches.
-
There's always room for Aaron Cooke and Carlos "Hi Ho" Silva.
-
Depending on what happens this offseason: Mata, Murphy, Walter, Ward.
-
Rosters ARE larger now. Did any MLB teams go with a 6 man rotation for a significant stretch during 2022? I don't remember it happening.
-
It makes him an obvious EVERY TEAM target. The problem is that you pay a premium to bring him here. Is it worth it?
-
Are we talking 4 years for Eovaldi and 4 years for Taillon? Since 2016: Eovaldi 3.93 k/bb, xFIP 3.79 Taillon 3.66 k/bb, xFIP 3.89 It probably comes down to personal preference.

I used to post a lot more from home, but then your kind showed up.

Correa has done it 5 times in 8 years and is 2 years younger. (You're dinging 20 year old Correa with a 135 OPS+ who played half the season in AA and AAA?) Bogey has done it 5 times in 8 years and is 2 years older. If you change the metrics to any plate appearances with OPS+ 124 or better: Correa is 6 out of last 8 years Bogey is 5 out of last 8 years
-
Every time I make an intelligent post, I need to follow it up with one that uses negative brain cells that only amuses myself.
-
I agree. My preference is to Bogey as it should help with re-signing Raffy and I believe the Sox could move Xander off position once a younger guy is ready for SS.
-
What's Taillon's upside? 3 fWAR? His velo is 2 mph down from his 3+ fWAR days in 17-18. I don't think that's coming back in this lifetime.
-
I'm fine with it.
-
It's 220, but we don't know the years mentioned. 220/8 220/10 I'm not sure Devers signs for that until he tests the market.
-
Figure it out later.
-
Would I want Walker for 4 years? Probably not. I'm not sure I'd want Taillon for 4 year either. You'd be paying a premium for Nick Pivetta production.
-
Alex Colomé 1/3M
-
It's going to be a 2yr Jake McGee signing.
-
Chad Green?
-
He'll need to find someone who can build a bullpen for him.
-
I'm still not sold on our plan.
-
At that point, it's usually for an expiring contract. Just go over and reset after the season.
-
And Bogey has only done that once in 2018-2019? Bogey's defense impoved BUT ONLY WHEN SHIFTED. WHOOPS.
-
The money is going to buying the Washington Commanders.
-
Flexen is cheap money, but it would really depend on the trade. His statcast page resembles Walker. I think of the group, Eovaldi has the best chance to give you a top of the rotation type season. He's also the most volatile due to injury.
