Schreiber was a 2021 move. February 18, 2021 Boston Red Sox claimed RHP John Schreiber off waivers from Detroit Tigers.
-
@CatherinVaritek You’re officially stuck with him! Signed for the next 3 years!! Looks like they extended Tek's contract. Hasn't been announced if his role will change.
-
Yeah, they can't suck again next year.
-
Only 5 teams in all of baseball won 95 games or more in 2022. I'm not sure that's a reasonable goal for 2024. 90+? I think another poor year in 2023 would have Bloom on the next train out of here. I'm not sure there are many people on here that believe he'll stick around if they aren't in the playoffs next season.
-
Well, that's like just your opinion man...

@SPChrisHatfield Stephen Scott with his 5th HR of the AFL tonight. Red Sox with that many since 2005 (all had 5): Jeter Downs, 2021 Travis Shaw, 2013 Josh Reddick, 2008 I was going to play it down but that's not a bad list to be on. AFL is kind of already skimming off the chaff, but still.

I liked the Phillies fine enough when I was younger. Mike Schmidt was a great player. My joke was obvious enough. I hope the Astros end up being the modern version of the 90's Braves.

Too skinny for me.

It depends on how much you value that defense in RF in Fenway. Maybe the Sox have a higher priority for defense and have an adjusted WAR calculation of their own like rWAR? Why always rely on someone else's metrics when you can develop your own? Maybe they give higher weight to defense? IDK.
-
I'm not on his Only Fans.
-
I don't know this story. It was alluded to yesterday as well.
-
They need him to be healthy. Will he be? No, of course not.
-
At that point, maybe they even just sign a guy really cheap like Simmons and hope for a bounce back year. If it doesn't work out, find someone cheap to trade for in season.
-
MLB has its own history. When did free agency start? There were "free agents" as far back as 1931. Browns owner Phil Ball filed a lawsuit against Commissioner Kennesaw Landis that year, seeking a restraining order when Landis granted free agency to a number of Ball's players based on minor league farm system contract violations.
-
Saying that there are no rules would be a rule.
-
Oh yeah, well who did the 75/76 Reds sign then? Are these the arguments we have to have when the Red Sox suck and the WS is rained out?
-
Devers at 28.5 AAV and Judge at 31 AAV? Sign BOTH! That's close to what some people assumed it would take to sign Devers and Bogey.
-
Devers age 25: 140 wRC+, 4.9 fWAR Judge age 25: 174 wRC+, 8.7 fWAR Judge is a better hitter. He k's a lot, but has a better OBP than Devers due to his bb rate. Judge is a better fielder. While some consider Judge a health risk, Devers did miss some time this season with an issue and we don't know how his body will continue to age. In this scenario, I still take Judge as it may even be a better contract as it reduces the AAV.

Judge

Tino Boggs O'Neill The entire 96 rotation except for Pettitte Wetteland Wells El Duque Nelson Strawberry Sierra
-
Fine with me.
-
Jim Breuer called in to one of the talk shows to claim that ownership intentionally hired Valentine to blow up the team and dump some of the larger contracts. His was hired to be a chaos agent.
-
1. There were no issues with Tito unless you are going to believe the Weekly World News stories ownership put out to throw Tito under the bus. 2. Rudderless? They weren't rudderless. They just had no healthy starting pitchers. They were starting Andrew Miller, Erik Bedard, Tim Wakefield's corpse and Kyle Weiland. 3. The team was righted when they changed the culture and brought in Gomes, Napoli and Victorino. The team got better when the starting pitching got healthy and productive.
-
@OverTheMonster Germán Márquez is a good pitcher trapped in pitcher hell (aka Coors Field). And he’s someone the Red Sox should target this offseason. Career Splits Away: 3.77 ERA 703 OPSa WHIP 1.18 BABIP 286 xFIP 3.29 Decent FB, high spin CB... After leaving Coors, Gray had a decent year with Texas aside from missing time due to injury. Marquez could be a decent cheaper option. He's under 30 too.
-
They made Tito out to be the problem, but the team imploded after he left. With how he's handled his tenure in Cleveland, I bet the Sox would have been better off retaining him long term and just dumping the players they did in 2012.
