Yankees continually have a pretty good system and they don't typically have early draft picks.
-
And it's kind of a wonder that Bloom did not bring in some new blood. The recent track record of the Sox org's talent evaluation isn't great!
-
Rafaela signed for 10k. Bello signed for 28k. I highly doubt he knew either guy before the ink on the contract was signed.
-
The guy BOS was linked to was: https://www.milb.com/player/jordan-lawlar-691783
-
I think he's built up the lower part of the farm and provided depth (see all the starting pitchers that made appearances last year instead of retreads like Brad Peacock that we've seen in recent years). Has it been some amazing, unbelievable job? Not really. He's just stockpiling guys. The fruits of this labor won't be seen for another few years unfortunately. He'll need to keep the important club competitive in that time or lose his job.
-
He was fine as a 7th/8th inning guy. He's just not a closer anymore.

More fans went to Fenway during the horrible, no good Cherington years than in the amazing Dombrowski years. Cherington: 36,151 per game (3 last place finishes and 1 world series) Dombrowski: 36,062 per game (back to back to back AL East titles including world series and one third place season)

It was their worst attendance per game in a "normal" season since 2000. Peak attendance was 08-12 and I think a large part of the attendance issues are fatigue and price point.
-
Suzuki trailed off after a torrid start, but was still a 2 fWAR player. He would have been a good signing at a position they still have a big hole to fill.

@SPChrisHatfield Not sure if someone already pointed this out (apologies if so) but pretty sure the Red Sox control Joely Rodríguez for 2025 as well if they pick up his option. Has 3 years, 96 days of service time, so wouldn't be at 6 yet after 2024. Would be arb-eligible for 2025.
-
Joely will be on the 40 man though. Crook will be further down on the reserve list. Yes, they have to build a team. Yes, a700 knows this.
-
No, it's 70,000 posts of him doing a bit.
-
It was a third party that leaked.
-
I was responding to the "he wasn't a butcher" remark. Yes, they need to get someone. They probably should have just kept Renfroe and let him go year to year in arbitration. It would have worked out better for them. Maybe they sign Conforto?
-
What calendar year did the Boston Red Sox trade him in?
-
For now.
-
I only looked at Renfroe's RF numbers.
-
Should be a good conversation for Thanksgiving Dinner.
-
He's an MiLB guy. Probably only sees time in WOO and never gets on the 40 man. Better than Christin Stewart?
-
Strahm wants the opportunity to start. That won't happen with the Sox.
-
Who can't they only sign All Stars?
-
People thought there was a chance he'd be nontendered only because people in the media had mentioned it. The trade was a bad trade. The vast majority of posters hated it from day one. I really can't think of anyone who said it was a brilliant move and that Hunter would bust.
-
He had 12 errors in RF for the Red Sox. By old school standards that's NOT GOOD! That is worse than a prorated Wily Mo Pena 2006 Season.
-
@redsoxstats One thing the Red Sox are in desperate need of is pitchers that can put away batters with 2 strikes. Rodriguez was at 23.8% last year, which would have been second on the Red Sox after Schreiber's 24.3%. @redsoxstats The contact made against Rodriguez this year most closely matched Daniel Bard, Jorge Lopez, Kendall Graveman, and Rafael Montero. Walks are going to need to tick back down, but there is a good shot this is more Strahm than Diekman.
