  1. The only way to make the fans stand for it is to win games. Fans are going to be frustrated unless that happens.
  2. At best he'd be a midseason call-up. He'd have to show a lot more patience at the plate though. It's apparently something they are working on and something that he realizes is an issue and wants to fix.
  3. There plan is to just find value plays wherever they can the way Henry made his money back in the day. Right now in MLB, that doesn't mean let your guys walk off into FA and keep your fingers crossed that you'll find good players leftover when everyone else has finished their feeding frenzy. They need to spend big money on the right guys. I think the Mookie LA deal is a fair deal. I think Xander should have been given more money last go around so that the opt outs didn't exist OR he should have been extended prior to last season. I think Raffy should be extended prior to Spring Training or should be traded. Figure out which players are worth keeping around long term and extend them before they hit their ARB years. Keep extending them before they hit FA.
  4. The length of contracts this offseason is surprising to say the least. I wonder what things will look like 5 years from now when a lot of these guys start breaking down and clogging up space.
  5. I wasn't all in on Nimmo either. Figured he'd be back with the Mets no matter what.
  6. I think we've seen that Verdugo isn't going to reach the upside we projected. Yoshida probably is just replacing Verdugo in LF. I'd still keep Kiké in CF, get someone to platoon with Refsnyder in RF and sign a cheaper short term SS. If Mayer is the REAL DEAL, just wait for him to show up in 2024.
  7. Yup.
  8. I think Yoshida's contract is less risky than Rusney's.
  9. No, if Yoshida has a monster season and the Sox go 80-82, Bloom is still let go.
  10. Are scouts good at judging market value or player talent? I think it's two different issues at hand. Will his bat play or is his contract worth it. I'm not sure a scouting guy is the best source of what players should be paid.
  11. No, he's just the reincarnation of Ben Cherington.
  12. I don’t remember this lore.
  13. Who knows what the breaking point will be. We’ll know once owners start selling or the 300M contracts go bye bye.
  14. I saw the 18 wheeler headed down the road.
  15. Braves made 400M solely in baseball revenues through Q3. Not going over the luxury cap is a choice.
  16. They would be in a better spot today with no worse for wear.
  17. So he should have been traded last offseason then.
  18. Who's surprised. We're frustrated. They should have figured this out LAST offseason. When it got to this point it was basically over.
  19. Who knows anymore... It's all hearsay and right now it's a dogpile on the Red Sox for good reason.
  20. The Twins still need a SS.
  21. Here's the thing... They massively underbid for their own players. They massively overbid for other players (supposedly). They take first rounders that nobody else has projected as first round talent regardless of if they could be had later in the draft. Why is their valuation so out of line with the rest of MLB?
  22. Yesterday was fun, today f***ing sucks. Good thing it's not the weekend or I'd be sloppy drunk.
  23. I don't think he has a chance to pop up in BOS this year.
