    The Red Sox offered Xander a price so that statement is just false?
  2. mvp 78
    You're going to have to find that post. I don't remember that at all and she's not on here to defend herself.
  3. mvp 78
    Turner was signed to be the DH plus backup 3B/1B. I think if are now looking to "find a position for Turner" they should just pack in the season.
  4. mvp 78
    Has anyone said otherwise?
  5. mvp 78
    I don't remember this at all. I'm not sure they discussed moving Xander off SS at any point since 2014.
  6. mvp 78
    If it's reluctant, you won't here about it in the media.
  7. mvp 78
    Who is making excuses for them not signing Xander? They should have signed him. It was the right thing to do. We know they messed up last offseason. We've talked about that endlessly. Nobody on here has made an excuse for it.

    Strongly agree. At 8.6 fWAR, the rotation was 18th in the league. If they perform how I suggested above, they should be about a 12 fWAR rotation. It's a 40% improvement! However, they'd still be middle of the road at best and maybe ranked 14th in the league. For reference, the much maligned 2015 rotation was 13th and had 12.9 fWAR. The really bad rotation that we stopped talking about a long time ago was 2012 which was 28th and only had 4.5 fWAR.

    That pitching staff SUCKED and I guess the hope is that internal options will be better this year than last season. I guess that's the plan. They had money, not spending it on at least one starter is pretty f***ing dumb. Two would have been preferred.

    #1 team pitching fWAR. #1 team starting pitching fWAR.

    The "SS only" Xander was posturing during a SS FA feeding frenzy. He'll move off position when asked.
  12. mvp 78
    NEWSFLASH, you aren't getting an ace for Casas AND they don't have a long term SS plan aside from Mayer. I don't see them trading for an ace anytime soon.
  13. mvp 78
    I think Mata could win that spot in ST.
  14. mvp 78
    I think we all agree about that.
  15. mvp 78
    The roles not being consistent for Whitlock and Houck really caused a lot of turmoil. I don't want any in season experimentation.
  16. mvp 78
    People are overstating what Wacha, Hill and Eovaldi actually did in 2022.
  17. mvp 78
    A fluke season isn't always due to luck. Why was he never able to replicate the low BB rate?
  18. mvp 78
    Well, likely is the important word then. If it's likely than you gotta get under the cap.
  19. mvp 78
    MiLB contract and he can start in WOO.
  20. mvp 78
    A fool and his post are soon quoted. That is the immutable rule of TalkSox.
  21. mvp 78
    Why would they move Devers or Casas to DH? Turner isn't a good enough defensive 3b to mess with Devers and barely has more 1b innings than Casas.
  22. mvp 78
    Garcia is 89th percentile for arm strength and 74th for sprint speed. He gets a bad jump on balls, but I think he'd be better than Verdugo or Renfroe defensively.
  23. mvp 78
    It always is!
  24. mvp 78
    Career low BB rate and BABIP.
  25. mvp 78
    Dude is going to get yanked around like my dog's Buc-ee stuffy.
