  1. @David_Ornstein EXCLUSIVE: Liverpool have been put up for sale by Fenway Sports Group. Sale deck has been produced for interested parties. Goldman Sachs + Morgan Stanley assisting evaluation process. Unclear if deal gets done but FSG inviting offers Henry is coming into some $$$ soon.
  2. No, it just shows that Bloom has a lot of work this offseason to construct next year's roster which is true.
  3. Because the Sox should have at least countered Mookie's offer.
  4. Too many years IMO.
  5. They could, they didn't want to.
  6. I'd trade Verdugo for sure. I'd trade Devers if they think they can't re-sign him.
  7. Their what?
  8. Hosmer is getting worse at 1b as he ages and he wasn't exactly great before. Casas is going to be run out at 1b as much as possible.
  9. 1B Casas 2B Story SS ? 3B ? (Devers could be traded) OF ? (Kiké could move to SS, Verdugo could be traded) C ? (rumored acquisition)
  10. 99.5% he opts out. If he doesn't, it's because he fails to do the paperwork in time.
  11. There's still time before the next contract is printed.
  12. Those moves all not surprises. Anderson, Vogelbach and Gray would get more on the open market so the teams kept them. Similarly, Bassitt declined his option as he'd get more. Cruz is overpaid so the team declined their portion of the mutual option. Cruz may retire?
  13. Bello was just about ready. He was sent back down at one point, but came back up and was much better the second time around. Ort really isn't anything of note. Like I said, he's DFA material. German is NOT ready. He is a one pitch pitcher right now. He can get MiLB hitters out, but I don't think he's ready for MLB.
  14. The only thing he mentions in the story is that he likes to take batting practice in the cage inside rather than on the field.
  15. When young pitchers first come up, they typically struggle a little: Steve Avery 1990: 3-11, 5.64 ERA Tom Glavine 1987: 2-4, 5.54 ERA Greg Maddux 1986-7: 8-18, 5.60 ERA John Smoltz 1988: 2-7, 5.48 ERA I'm not saying the Sox farm will produce anything like the 90's Braves, just that guys that come up from the farm tend to take a little while to mature. The comment about the young pitchers "left a lot to be desired" is kind of jumping the gun IMO.
  16. Bello 2.48 ERA 8/24 - 9/25, will be in the rotation in 2023 GREAT Crawford 3.33 ERA 6/12 - 8/13 as starter over 9 games and 54 innings, GOOD Kelly 2.13 ERA 8/29-9/29, probably earned MLB spot for 23 GOOD Winckowski up and down, was projected as back end starter at best, had his moments FAIR Ort overall numbers took a beating because of the TOR appearance where he was left in too long, but is a taxi squad bullpen guy at best DFA MATERIAL German throws hard but has no secondary pitch, will start in AAA in 23 IN PROGRESS Bastardo numbers looked good, but peripherals weren't impressive ALREADY DFA'D Seabold rough year dealing with injuries and inconsitency, seems to be a AAAA guy TRADE BAIT
  17. Since the 22-23 Offseason Thread was locked, I'll just put this here: @ChrisCotillo Many key dates coming up for the Red Sox: 11/8-10: GM Meetings in Vegas 11/8 or 11/9: Bogaerts' opt-out decision due 11/10 or 11/11: Team options, QOs due 11/15: Rule 5 protection deadline 11/18: Non-tender deadline 11/20 or 11/21: Qo decisions due 12/5-7: Winter Meetings in SD
  18. I think they were trying to say you can't win a World Series by calling up your farm, not that your farm will develop you into a WS contender.
  19. @SmittyOnMLB Red Sox prospects Nick Yorke, Stephen Scott (5 homers) named All-Stars in AFL
  20. The fact that deGrom came back after injury and pitched great would make me tempted to give him a large contract to get him out of Queens. Mets are said to be prioritizing Nimmo and Diaz rather than deGrom.
  21. Why do the Rays keep getting the better end of their trades?
