    Not necessarily. If Duran is deriving most of his WAR value through defense, I'd argue that I'd rather a 2 WAR Arozarena. I think the defensive portion of WAR isn't great and greatly overinflates some seasons (Wong '23 2.0 bWAR, 0.3 fWAR). Solely relying on WAR isn't the perfect solution here. Sox need offense. Duran's offense is in clear decline. I don't necessarily agree that Arozarena is the choice to fix that though.

    Bell would win every year.
  3. mvp 78
    The only real difference between Bell and Masa is that Bell is healthy.

    Rafaela to SS Mead to CF
  5. mvp 78
    And plan on players having off years too.
  6. mvp 78
    Definitely tastes like kids make it.
  7. mvp 78
    The stink almost got to them!
  8. mvp 78
    Not a fan TBH.

    I'd bet a jar of marinara they won't go over it.

    Look at this guy carrying water for our tightwad owner!

    I'd be very surprised if they break the 2nd threshold since they are even being stingy with the coaching hires due to what they are still on the hook for with the Cora guys.

    Understatement of the 2020's so far.
  13. mvp 78
    No Kings

    The Sox did make it very easy for the Yankees to advance this season vs last season. There was no dog in this fight.

    Roman's defensive metrics are much better than we give him credit for. He was third in ROY voting for a reason. It's just been a long time since we've seen the very good version of Roman.
  16. mvp 78
    You were projecting every Sox starter to hit over 720 when the only projected starters to do that in '26 were Roman, Rafaela, Abreu and Contreras. Just ticking the box on the other 5 guys seems fairly presumptuous.

    Brewers are going to lose tonight because of the Selig stink!
  19. mvp 78
    Cora and the gang still get fired because they didn't see eye to eye with the direction Breslow wanted to go.

    The team was pretty bad at the beginning and end of the season. There was a 40ish G stretch where they played historical baseball on the backs of fringe offensive players like Durbin, Seigler, Sogard and Monasterio. You can't count that on happening every season.
  21. mvp 78
    They aren't spending that much without figuring out a way to clear a ton of payroll.
  22. mvp 78
    I'll be happy if Roman plays 140 G next year.
  23. mvp 78
    TBH, it wasn't even just losing two games that was the problem. The team put the brakes on once it got to September. It was a pretty miserable end to the season. It'd be one thing if we could just point to a bad few games, but the season was a real slog at the end.
  24. mvp 78
    "Yeah, we've spent too much recently. We probably DON'T need Skubal this time." I'm not sure many Dodgers fans are thinking this.
  25. mvp 78
    Ok with me! I'm not saying he shouldn't be the starting SS. I'm just saying that people should temper their expectations for his offensive output.
