  1. Casas is the best 1b since Moreland. That's not saying much, but Casas should be ok over there. He's definitely an upgrade over Dalbec.
  2. Why is it not a good sign that they were far apart on Abreu? They had a number and Abreu signed with the Astros for much more. I'm glad the Sox didn't extend themselves and overpay. Abreu at 3x45 is a much better deal than 3x60.
  3. Bassitt Kluber Greinke Quintana
  4. If we pay more, they'll be able to keep Devers!!!!!!!!!!!
  5. No, that's for the plants and my coffee. I bathe in the swale.
  6. Cashman has helped the Yankees have an outstanding farm system and remain competitive all without killing the payroll. The sox might like that in the short term.
  7. Speak for yourself. I wash myself monthly.
  8. Do they know the Magic 8 Ball is just a toy?
  9. Agreed. I don't think the Royals looked at 2020 and worried that Beni would have to go back to AAA.
  10. Like my MIL's credit cards.
  11. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think FanGraphs gives much more weight to defensive metrics. bWAR is just weird to me though. Correa oWAR 5.2 dWAR 1.1 bWAR 5.4 Turner oWAR 5.0 dWAR 1.0 bWAR 4.9 (Why would it be below 5?) 2022: Correa 5.4 bwar 140 OPS+, 4.4 fWAR 140 wRC+ Turner 4.9 bwar 121 OPS+, 6.3 fWAR 128 wRC+
  12. @jonmorosi The #Angels, #RedSox and #BlueJays are among the teams with interest in Kodai Senga, who is among the top available free-agent starters.
  13. Correa 31.3 fWAR Turner 31.6 fWAR
  14. It wasn't Story's deal, but their inability to extend Xander prior to the season. I think they still wanted to stay under the lux tax cap, but oops'd it. They should have just paid Xander and went over. He probably would have signed some sort of 6/165 at that point.
  15. Statistically they are very close. Correa has the edge in one number that really matters: age.
  16. Why?
  17. Also, "ask them." You BDC guys really know how to foster a discussion huh...
  18. 3M. Beni + 3M Cordero, Winckowski, De La Rosa, Gambrell, Valdez From 21-22, Beni provided about 25M in surplus value. From 21-22, the Sox lost 8M just by putting Cordero in the lineup. If Winckowski just ends up being Anthony Ranaudo, this just ends up being a pie in the face.
  19. Got it. 11 years is a LONG contract. I like Turner, but YEEEESH...
  20. He was the backup for the Twins if Correa goes elsewhere and maybe for the Diamondbacks. LA was maybe mentioned. Padres only wanted him if he could move off SS.
  21. No. Bogaerts: 10/1/92 Turner: 6/30/93
  22. Turner is better than Bogey. If the owner will pay, you sign the better player.
  23. That was supposed to be the Xander landing spot...
  24. If the budget was so tight, why'd they even eat 3M of Beni's salary?
  25. Yes, but not me.
