  1. I disagree. If they are bringing Hill, Wacha and Eovaldi back again, they need to be prepared for long IL stints again. These guys do take up space on the 40 man. Are they also going to go with the Paxton/Sale experiment again?
  2. He gave in because he finally got $365M which is a f***-ton of money.
  3. Why? This doesn't make sense at all. When you're Mookie Betts, the pandemic doesn't affect your contract. His ask of $420 wasn't a demand, but part of a negotiation. Sox chose to withdraw rather than meet in the middle which would have been close to $365. Makes more sense that $365 is closer to what he actually expected regardless of the pandemic. People just use the pandemic as an excuse for why the contract wasn't as large as they thought it was going to be.
  4. Eovaldi gets riskier and riskier as he gets older. Wacha just has limited upside. You offer a QO to either of them and they gobble it up.
  5. Hill is cheap and can pitch out of the pen so that's fine.
  6. Turner is going to be 30M+. He'll be way more than Bogey.
  7. I wouldn't even pencil in Refsnyder as making the opening day roster. He's been a lifelong backup for a reason. He's been a brightspot for a miserable team. Don't expect it to carry over guys.
  8. 39.9% first pitch swing for Raffy. MLB average is 29.4.
  9. I heard an interview with Speier where he was discussing it directly and had sources state as much.
  10. There's lots of deferred money thrown around these days, that's not abnormal. How can you guys be so sure it was the pandemic?
  11. Morton Ryu
  12. No.
  13. This came straight from Speier from what I remember.
  14. Overall, it hasn't been a good use of resources.
  15. I think Paulino would just drop down to 11 through no fault of his own.
  16. I think one of the SP guys has him top 10?
  17. That's because he's a good hitter. If he hits well at the start of next season, Sox may look into extending him and buying out a year or two of FA.
  18. Sale extension and re-signing Eovaldi (the feel good move after the WS). The Bogey contract was good. If anything, DD should have opened his wallet and overpaid Mookie.
  19. Aside from a stretch in June, was he consistently in that role? It's been a hodgepodge of guys getting saves for the Sox this year: Schreiber, Strahm, Whitlock, Houck and they even experimented with Robles at one point.
  20. What DD did through October 2018 was fine. What he did afterwards is what set the franchise back.
  21. I just have a suspicion that they like Perales a lot (high ceiling) and don't really care as much for Blaze.
  22. Sox have lots of those going into next year: Schreiber, Whitlock, Houck, Barnes, FATBNL.
