And not the big bopper types of yore.

It'll be sooner.
-
Profar is LF only profile at this point unless he's being signed as a backup UTIL. I don't think he's a starting 2B for any serious team.
-
We only see Rafaela sooner than later if he refines his approach at the plate. He's just not a patient hitter. He'll look like the bad version of JBJ.
-
I'm saying that it SHOULDN'T be Verdugo. They may go with him out there but it will be UGLY.
-
I think the Red Sox try to spread their money out rather than just get a couple of prospects. Cast a wide net so to speak.
-
It was to make fun of all the other posts that can’t stop making that one joke.

Don't remember if I've actually seen Paulino highlights before: https://twitter.com/Hunter_Noll/status/1613992796175880192

Sox avoided arbitration with all remaining players: According to MassLive.com’s Chris Cotillo, the Red Sox will pay Pivetta $6.3 million, Brasier $2 million, McGuire $1.225 million, Arroyo $2 million, and Verdugo $6.3 million

You like McGuire's D?!?!?!? I can't believe you just said that?!?!?!? Gufaw gufaw gufaw... His defense is good though.

If Winckowski can't get his strike out numbers up, he's not going to be useful for a team that wants to be competitive. He's a right handed Wade Miley.
-
Shemp's the OG so he gets the call.
-
Kelly doesn't have a good walk rate. His k rate didn't play up at the MLB level last season. Until it does, that walk rate keeps him behind Brasier. He still had a 4 ERA. Crawford didn't pitch all that great out of the pen. His walk rate was really bad out there. Neither guy has anything greater than a middle relief ceiling in the pen. I think they are about in the same tier of pitcher. Brasier is much more expensive though.
-
I'm not certain he's on this team in April.

"That's when the cannibalism started."

Moving Kiké off of CF would be one of the biggest mistakes made this offseason towards the defensive profile of the 2023 Sox.
-
Dugo CF '21: -7 DRS in 337 Innings Duran CF '22: -9 DRS in 416 Innings They are basically the same defender in CF. Dugo was slow in '21, but was even slower in '22 per Statcast. His defensive number could be even worse than Duran's now.
-
German is not better right now and has no secondary pitches. Walter needs time and has barely pitching in AAA as he missed the second half with a significant injury. Wink could use time in the pen to ramp up his arm. Murphy ended his season on a sour note in AAA with a bloated ERA and is not close to being ready. Wyatt Mills is all of a sudden better than Brasier? How? K's less guys. BB's more guys. He's a project right now. Mata is still slotted as a starter for now. Kelly and Crawford will probably make the Opening Day roster along with Brasier.
-
Darwinzon's best season was comparable to what Jake Diekman provided last year. He wasn't improving in AAA. He wasn't improving in winter ball. He hasn't been under 6 BB/9 since A+. Thaddeus is a legit complaint.
-
How many tv's do you want Sale to break this season?
-
awesome: extremely impressive or daunting; inspiring great admiration, apprehension, or fear I agree with Chaim's assessment then!
-
It's been 5 years. He's not going to get better at it.
-
Dalbec is also a faster runner than Verdugo. Depening on how well he tracks flyballs, he could actually be pretty good as a corner OFer. They definitely need reliable guys who can cover innings somewhere. If Profar can start 120+ at 2B, that would be huge. We know Arroyo can't. I think they should just sign Iggy and be done with it. Sox fans would be ok with that as a transition.
-
Ok, but we've had comparisons to Ellsbury and Jose Bautista when talking about Jarren f***ing Duran. I will delete my account if he has a 9.5 fWAR season or hits 50 bombs in a year in MLB. Both those guys ended with 30+ fWAR.
