    Sonny Gray: 10th in SP fWAR '24-'25 Contreras: 17th in fWAR '24-'25 and 30th wRC+ from '24-'25 (tied with Corbin Carroll, Ryan O'hearn, Josh Naylor) As others have said, adding Bo/Breggie/Marte to that makes this offseason a GOOD offseason.

    Pumpsie's posts tend to flop worse than the 2022 Red Sox TBF.

    We've had falling iguana weather this week! Absolutely brutal down here. 😮‍💨

    Bo's market hasn't seemed to be really crazy and he's younger than the over 30 guys. It shouldn't be a hard pill to swallow IMO. He's a lesser talent today, but he'll be a better IFer than Marte or Bregman 3 years from now.

    It may work on BTV, but Rays would have no interest in this trade. They wouldn't want to take on two additional 40 man spots. Wong and Masa are net negatives in the trade. Hamilton also probably doesn't start ahead of Palacios in their minds and they've spent a lot of high draft picks on 2b recently.
  9. mvp 78
    Part of it is trying to move the ball faster and get the deal over sooner than later IMO. I don't think he wants a strict deadline, but don't believe he wants this dragging out until February.
  10. mvp 78
    Marte - really depends on the trade, but leaning towards good Bo - good Bregman - good, but really depends on the deal

    What do you mean by "consider this an offseason?"
  12. mvp 78
    Don't have much to add at the moment, but figured it's time to start a new thread. I'm glad that Breslow has started to add to the catching position. The pitching side of the org will be fun to watch early on this year. Arias didn't hit much in AA, but we will learn a lot about his future in '26. My early pick is Godbout for org POTY.
  13. mvp 78
    1b has been generally undervalued. I agree that Contreras will go a long way to help the IF.
  14. mvp 78
    I'm not all in on Donovan as others are. If they only bring him in, it will leave me unfulfilled. I like Hamilton. I may like Hamilton more than the Sox do considering his playing time. I think his defense is valued too highly on bref though.
  15. mvp 78
    Hamilton career 77 wRC+ Donovan career 119 wRC+
  16. mvp 78
    Hamilton has had one decent season that was carried by an extremely hot 45 days or so. Donovan has been solid every year. It's not even close especially since Hamilton is NOT a 162 game guy. Let's be real about it.
  17. mvp 78
    Moving Duran for Paredes plus prospects is a win IMO. Instead of King, just load up on a few more prospects to help a farm system that is going the wrong direction.
  18. mvp 78
    Breslow likes 6'3" LHP The deal is fine enough. Bubic is an upgrade over Bello if healthy.
  19. mvp 78
    Paredes is a greater need for the Sox and his bat would play well at Fenway. Duran is a good player, but I'd be fine with a one for one deal there.
  20. mvp 78
    If the team is in the playoffs almost every season going forward, I'm not going to complain what the payroll is. I don't think they have to replace every player that walks out that door. Right now, the holes are 2b and 3b. One of those positions will be filled by Mayer. If the other is filled by Bregman, fine. If it's filled by Donovan, I'm not sure it's enough of a replacement over the short term TBH. I try not to be too hung up about it, but it's hard to say "look at the 4 championships" when they've clearly changed their spending habits since then (and have done lots of psychic damage to the fanbase by trading and letting go of franchise players).
  21. mvp 78
    I'd rather have Duran than Gore.
  22. mvp 78
    Most likely to complain Power Rankings: Duran Casas S Gray Bello
  23. mvp 78
    And '22-'24 didn't really feel like an investment. '25 felt like a step in the right direction, but trading away the franchise player (and largest contract) certainly gives me pause.
  24. mvp 78
    I think their valuation has been up for debate ever since they signed Masa and it fell flat. Those scouts are still onboard FWIW.
  25. mvp 78
    They went from being great owners to mediocre ones. Yay...
