    I think Reynolds will be too expensive. If I'm spending prospect capital, I'm using it towards the rotation.

    If Haniger was able to stay healthy, he'd really enjoy hitting at Fenway as he's a dead pull hitter. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/mitch-haniger-571745?stats=statcast-r-hitting-mlb

    @NBCSEdgeBB Red Sox, Rangers 'among most serious' on Haniger

    I can see the argument that Raffy COULD gain weight and hurt his career. However, a lot of the negative perception is due to the shape of his face and the fact that he's just generally a bigger guy. I think if he didn't come right after Pablo Sandoval, we wouldn't be as concerned. I think Betts plays hard, but I wouldn't say he's as reckless as Pedroia, who often had shorter seasons due to nagging injuries and had a knack for diving headfirst into first base or whatever. I think there's a bigger risk that a guy like Casas doesn't age well. He's already had a few injuries, carried a lot of weight when he was younger and is generally unathletic. If I had to bet money on someone having a shorter career, it'd be him.

    So it's the MVP award, not the overall numbers?

    Stanton's Monster season? Devers had the same fWAR that Stanton had prior his deal. Harper had one big year, then 3 decent, but not great years before his deal. Giving out a 300M deal because a guy had a 9 fWAR season 4 years earlier doesn't make sense to me.

    Crybabies , pinkhats, pollyannas... What will you guys think of next? Very productive discourse!
  9. mvp 78
    I disagree that he's had weight issues or that his nagging injuries are anything worse than what Betts has gone through during his career. Arguably, Betts has had worse injuries that has impacted his game more severely (see 2021).

    Even saying that once, just sets you up to look dumb.
  11. mvp 78
    Betts is probably a HOFer unless he gets some horrific injury. Bogaerts is off the ballot in one year unless he ages very well. Devers remains to be seen.
  12. mvp 78
    No, Devers never had Harper's 9.3 fWAR in 2015, but he's matched all of his other seasons. Stanton through age 25 21.5 fWAR. Devers through age 25 18.1 fWAR, which would be much closer to Stanton's number if 2020 was a full season.

    They won't outbid anyone for Nimmo.
  14. mvp 78
    He probably won't be, but it would be fun in the short term.
  15. mvp 78
    They already have the mosaic.
  16. mvp 78
    I'll use the FanGraphs AAV if listed: Contreras 17 Senga 17 Xander 28 Kluber 11 Conforto 12 Remaining 5 goes towards an extension with Raffy.
  17. mvp 78
    I'm ok with part A, part B can go suck eggs.
  18. mvp 78
    My guess Mayer Casas Bleis Rafaela Yorke Mata Romero Perales Walter Anthony
  19. mvp 78
    Andrews 2/20 Kluber 1/11 Senga?
  20. mvp 78
    Aaron Judge
  21. mvp 78
    A real answer, from you? Wow!
  22. mvp 78
    Yup.
  23. mvp 78
    I guarantee that JH has the final say on all of these large contract offers. Bloom isn't doing that alone. There's too much money involved.
  24. mvp 78
    I really, really doubt Mayer sees any time in BOS this year. He has less than 100 AB's above low A. Raffy, Xander and Mookie all had 700 PA's above low A before getting to BOS. That'd be at least another full year before debuting.

    Now that there will be MassMutual patches on the Sox jerseys, what does the MassMutual CEO have to say about the partnership? @MikeSilvermanBB Here's Crandall's quote: "Listen, I'd love for the Red Sox to do much, much, much better in 2023 than they did in 2022 – but not that much better. Because, I hate to say it as a Yankee fan born in New York City, second place is not a bad place to be."
