  1. The Sox lose fans every year, just not psychopaths that post on messageboards in 2022.
  2. If he doesn't opt out, he's due 4/80. Maybe bumping him to 6/150 gets it done? Seager got 10 years, but was only 28 at the start of the deal. He was the only $200M+ deal last winter. I don't believe Xander will go for that much. Semien got 7/175 for age 31. Seems like a better comp if not too high considering that Story/Baez both got 6/140?
  3. If Winckowski stinks tonight, it’s because of Plawecki’s CERA regression.
  4. Is Sano better than Dalbec? Both are big bats with lots of swing and miss. Sano is older and more expensive. Neither is great in the field. IDK about trading for Sano. You could probably deal for him and to eat his salary and get some good prospects with it. I wouldn't pick up the club option for 2023 though. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/miguel-sano-593934?stats=statcast-r-hitting-mlb
  5. An offseason signing? Ok. An inseason trade package? Pass.
  6. But not with LeBrOn JaMeS!
  7. And the Sox won't have to worry about eyeballs after the beginning of September.
  8. The problem with Bell is that he's horrible at 1b and his contract is up after this season. He's also going to command too high of a price tag.
  9. @redsoxstats Olney says, "a guy that other teams say is available is JD Martinez."
  10. @BeyondtheMnstr The Red Sox have designated righty Phillips Valdez for assignment and have moved newly acquired outfielder Abraham Almonte onto the 40-man roster.
  11. It can't be due to a small sample size though!
  12. I mentioned Division titles AND the WS. Maybe you just aren't that good at reading?
  13. Renfroe was bad last year in Fenway, but his DRS is much better in MIL. Hard to say what Verdugo would look like in RF in 2022 without actually seeing it.
  14. My assumption is that he is getting worse defensively. I can see that he is slowing down year over year on statcast. 2019 12 DRS 2020 7 DRS 2021 1 DRS 2022 -4 DRS Would he be better in a larger RF in Fenway? I don't see how.
  15. Personally, I know nothing about the attitude issues. To me, it just looks like his defense isn't getting any better as shown by the eye test and the advanced metrics.
  16. In a different park, Verdugo could reasonably play RF. Home at Fenway? No.
  17. And his bat will really need to be a carrying tool if it's going to LF.
  18. I'm not sure he can get to be "average" if that.
  19. Maybe he heard Verdugo yell that he had it, but it was just the worst look ever in a horribly rotten game.
  20. What would you call it then?
  21. How much are we paying Sale for him not to pitch for us? JBJ to not be a positive fWAR player?
  22. So not just along for the ride then? As always, flags fly forever. The reason the Sale extension doesn't work out as no flags have come after it. Don't pay for past performance.
  23. SSS. I think think there's lots of noise that contributes to this. If there's a guy rounding 3rd and you know JD is up next, you're more likely to hold them than if you know Arroyo or Plawecki is up next.
