  1. I think my concerns for the Sox at SS this season, with Story at SS it's not about the strength of his arm, but that his arm just might not hold up health wise. If he can stay healthy and maintain that position until Mayer is ready, then I guess I'm fine with it. I think I preferred him at 2b though because his defense really played up there.
  2. Ok, 2018 - 2013 = 5 years. It's now 5 years on from 2018. Is the team ready to win again?
  3. 75 more balls - 20 errors - 40 less outs = 15 more outs than other fielder BUT the errors lead to runners advancing. I'm not sure your scenario works in favor of the guy you are promoting.
  4. The critique from the DD years was that he'd listen to no one. Now Bloom listens to too many people apparently. It's like they overcorrected again. Theo was the perfect blend of being able to sign FA's and grow the farm. Ever since then, they haven't struck that balance.
  5. We can extend him, but have it not affect his year's tax.
  6. Bloom would have loved Filene's Basement in Downtown Crossing.
  7. @joonlee Some within the Red Sox front office have questioned Chaim Bloom’s decision-making process causes Boston to make decisions too slowly Apparently, he waits for too much feedback before making a decision.
  8. Good thing I'm at work and not at home with a bottle of bourbon.
  9. @joonlee On Rafael Devers, Chaim Bloom said the Red Sox are willing to go “beyond reason” to get a deal done but that there are “limitations” Sources say the Red Sox and Devers are “galaxies apart” Devers and his camp currently expect he will be a free agent
  10. Right after he had a really good defensive season? Good plan if you don't want to be competitive.
  11. He has a high BB rate which makes that FIP a lot higher than you'd like to see.
  12. I know nothing about Wyatt Mills.
  13. Sox attendance hasn't dipped since Betts left (held steady at 4th out of 15 for AL), but this offseason could change that. Yes, the TOTAL attendance figure is down, but it's down across MLB.
  14. Signing Turner told me a few things: 1. Yoshida is going to be the fulltime LF 2. Verdugo is going to be the fulltime RF, unless dealt 3. Devers will be able to DH a little bit more than he has in the past 4. Dalbec is still being shopped
  15. If they wait out the market, they could maybe sign Kluber AND Eovaldi anyway.
  16. Justin Turner is a HORRIBLE 3B right now. If he's the everyday 3B, it's a bad signing. If they are signing him to DH, great.
  17. Potential future 3B's: Paulino Lugo Blaze Bonaci Salazar
  18. Red Sox fandom fell to a pretty big low around the time Boggs and Clemens left from what I remember.
  19. We really have no idea about the inner workings. It's just our biases telling us who to blame. Truthfully, they are all to blame.
  20. I think it's likely that Eovaldi comes back as that QO attachment really deflates what other teams would want to offer him. Eovaldi was dumb for not taking the QO.
  21. Yup.
  22. Top unsigned guys per FanGraphs projected fWAR: Eovaldi Kluber Wacha Smyly Duffy Miley Minor Greinke Hill Cueto Lyles Weaver Pineda Earlier, he stated that he wanted someone that could provide INNINGS and help lead the staff. Is that Kluber? Maybe? It's definitely underwhelming for the starting rotation, but I didn't really expect much from this FA class.
  23. I have a feeling that 2b might just be a rotating cast of characters: Arroyo, Valdez and whatever guys they churn through the bottom of the 40 man. Maybe they'll get a cheap FA backup like Mendick or Iggy.
  24. Everyone's power numbers went down last year. His SLG declined at about the league average. His wRC+ was better than JD's. He is just going to replace JD, play a little D and k a little less.
