  1. Los Angeles Dodgers 35+ last playoffs: Blake Treinen (yuck), Kershaw (yuck), Freeman (720 OPS), Rojas (looking to retire)
  2. It's NOT going to be 2 bats, unless the 2nd bat is Hoskins or similar.
  3. TalkSox about to be in shambles.
  4. As an MLBer, your body physically declining by 1-2% is a massive shift though. That would get you out of the game by age 35 for many players. Only the greats are hanging on after then and it's mainly due to name recognition to sell tickets.
  5. He also has a nice LD and GB rate and really works RF/CF which is the largest part of Fenway. If he was a flyball hitter, it wouldn't be ideal. For Donovan, it could work to his advantage.
  6. His durability is what will shorten his career and keep him from what should have been a HOF track.
  7. Corey Seager - only one season +135 games since 1/1/18 zero seasons of 100 RBI zero seasons of 35 HR led MLB in doubles twice runner up in MVP once He would need to repeat '23-25 in order to get into the HOF. If he falls back at all, he has no shot.
  8. It's been a while since we've seen this goober and from what we saw in '24, his cutter has monster seat run if anything.
  9. Beltre went into the HOF as a Ranger. https://baseballhall.org/hall-of-famers/beltre-adrian
  10. There would be an injury somewhere and he can play 2b, ss, 3b. There'd be room. I don't think they are adding that many guys this offseason though. I think it's not going to be a game of musical chairs.
  11. He isn't a great fielder and doesn't pull the ball enough. I don't think he's a "perfect" fit. He's adequate.
  12. 1. Ivan Rodriguez 2. Rafael Palmeiro 3. Adrian Beltre 4. Buddy Bell 5. Ian Kinsler Juan Gonzalez isn't even top 5.
  13. They can afford it. They don't want to. We understand they don't want to. We are trying to figure out how to work within their dumb budget. JH wants the Sox to be a midmarket team while raking in big market #3 revenue dollars. It's just the reality we find ourselves in. It's the same way in Texas. 🫠
  14. It'll be ice cold tomorrow. 🥶
  15. 2.5 hours until Monegro/Paez/Mullins get drafted. Maybe DD drafts Song again?
  16. In that scenario, Mayer is in AAA working on hitting against LHP and offspeed stuff. 😎
  17. Anthony would be a waste at DH. I'd have him in LF and DH Duran.
  18. Not a good fit for Fenway.
  19. Future average starter is a probable outcome. I don't think he's at the Roman Anthony level or was ever projected to be that guy at any point.
  20. ST results don't do a lot for me. Many of the games are against MiLB pitching or guys just running through the motions. He could really use a full season in AAA to work against LHP and offspeed stuff.
  21. I wonder if he means McShane, but he's barely even a top 40 prospect. Can't just sub him in for Valera.
  22. Sox wouldn't have a backup catcher? Would they be signing Vaz?
  23. Story only has two more seasons. If you send Mayer to AAA for '26, it's not a big deal. Mayer can be injury insurance for any of these 3 guys and they'll probably need it TBH.
