  1. I've seen Duvall's upside over a full season in 2021. Verdugo's upside? Since 2019, Duvall has more RBI than Verdugo in 600 fewer PA's. Maybe Verdugo gets a boost without the shift? We'll see.
  2. Per Lou Merloni, they don't like to talk about the Sox on sports radio unless they are just slagging on them. Sports radio only wants to talk about the Patriots and maybe Bruins and Celtics. Nobody on air at either radio station has any interest or in a legitimate conversation about baseball or the Red Sox.
  3. Sure, but that's not where we're at right now. If Story comes back healthy this year, it's another weapon to add to the offense. I was hoping that Rafaela would be able to adjust his offensive game to fast track to BOS, but his approach in ST has mirrored what he did in 2022. He's going to have a great glove, but the questions on his bat remain. It's just a bad approach.
  4. Maybe some second guessing at least? Maybe at least an eye roll on that early report?
  5. They look like an 84 win team on paper. I think the vibes get them to 88. Just my opinion though.
  6. Kluber should pitch a whole season and be solid. Sale has a good attitude. I think Bello can be a good middle of the rotation guy. If Whitlock can stay in the rotation for most of the season, it just leaves Pivetta to figure out the 5th spot. I'm not really counting on Paxton for many innings at all. I'm not a believer in the Blue Jays.
  7. @jaketodonnell Anonymous quotes in ESPN on Yoshida deal in Dec.: "Overpay for me ... too rich imo" "I have no idea." "We thought he was worth less than half [that]." "I have no words." I wonder if they still don't have any words.
  8. Got lucky with that bang bang replay call too. Weird that the WBC was using 2022 MLB rules.
  9. I'm going out on a limb and saying 3rd place. I think the good vibes will carry into the season and get them to 88 wins.
  10. Many posters have pointed that out already. moonsLav just doesn't pay attention.
  11. He's just not as good as Duvall IMO. Duvall is a better defender and has higher upside offensively.
  12. Mike Trout is a choker.
  13. It wasn't just the USA that didn't have their best pitchers going.
  14. 100%.
  15. I'd like that every year.
  16. 70 pitches? Check! 5 innings? Check!!! Sounds like a good ST start to me!
  17. The 2011 Red Sox.
  18. @IanMBrowne Sale finished strong. His last two innings were scoreless. He threw 70 pitches in five innings. One more start in Spring Training.
  19. Is that a threat?
  20. He's a good replacement for Renfroe, especially if he were in RF instead of CF. C McGuire 1B Casas 2B Arroyo SS Story 3B Devers RF Duvall CF Hernandez LF Yoshida DH Turner
  21. As long as he's healthy, I'm not worried about it.
  22. I don't see Arroyo batting leadoff. They are a very left handed heavy team right now. Good chance 1 and 2 are both left handed hitters IMO.
  23. I think it's going to be: Verdugo Devers Turner Yoshida Duvall Casas Kiké McGuire Arroyo
  24. Just have a season with 150 games?
