    If there was anything to be concerned about last night, it would be that his velo was waaaay down. https://www.fangraphs.com/players/garrett-whitlock/20191/graphs?pitchgraphs=true&statArr=&legend=1&split=base&time=daily&start=2021&end=2022&rtype=mult&gt1=15&dStatArray=SI&ymin=&ymax=

    He took over a farm system that was in the bottom 5 of the league. Starting 2022, they are now ranked in the top half. Is it perfect? No, but it takes time to build up a farm system. I understand complaints about management about the plan for this year's MLB team, but I think the plan for the farm system has been fine. Again, I think brown diaper fans are just looking for something to complain about sometimes.
  3. mvp 78
    For all you brown diaper Sox fans out there, he went 6 innings and gave up only 1 run. That seems like a good start to me. Calling that "sub par" is embarrassing.

    I'm not sure there'd be any takers for Sale at his contract price.
  5. mvp 78
    JBJ has a 809 OPS since 5/03. He's now at 81 wRC+ for the season.
  6. mvp 78
    Not good enough according to some posters! And thanks to AGon, the Dodgers got to have a pool party at Chase Field.

    Eduard Bazardo in WOO has given up zero earned runs since April and only 1 after 4/17. I think I'd rather give him a shot than Brasier.

    https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/statcast-park-factors According to Statcast: Dodger Stadium has a park factor of 102.
  9. mvp 78
    Fenway is a doubles park, not a home run park.

    @SoxProspects An RBI double (12) for Jarren Duran increases Worcester's lead to 3-1 in the bottom of the fifth. You'd think a guy like that would strike out looking.
  11. mvp 78
    I would DFA Arroyo and call up Arauz to BOS. Koss could play 2B in WOO for 2022. I think his future is as a UTIL guy anyway.
  12. mvp 78
    I may be old, but I'm not Sports Huddle old.
  13. mvp 78
    Who am I to judge? I listen to podcasts.

    1. Procrastinators who are ignoring something else they are supposed to be doing while at work. 2. Retired old farts whose wives are glad they have something that keeps them out of their hair for a few minutes. 3. A school teacher who inexplicably sticks around here for no rhyme or reason.

    It's a verifiable fact that these abhorrent individuals were raised eating products packaged with Contamination Hazard Urban Disposal.
  16. mvp 78
    Down the road? He's a 27 year old, oft injured UTIL guy (really should be 2B only) who has an OPS of 575 right now. He's not fast. He doesn't have a great glove.
  17. mvp 78
    Radio show callers... The lowest of the low...
  18. mvp 78
    They should have kept Pedro. Adrian Gonzalez would have been fine for an aging 1B. Damon was good after he left the Sox.
  19. mvp 78
    I think JD/Eovaldi/Wacha/Kiké/Strahm could be dealt. I don't see anyone looking for Vaz down the stretch. Typically, teams want a catcher that has familiarity with the pitching staff.
  20. mvp 78
    Why would only one ring fix the loss? We just had one a few years ago? We've had 4 in recent memory. I'd rather be guaranteed to see Xander and Bogey for the next 6-8 years than get only one ring out of the deal.
  21. mvp 78
    I just think dealing Xander AND Devers is really a death blow to a good portion of the fan base for a few years. IDK. I believe you need to have some consistency from year to year. You need to have a face of the franchise. If they are going to deal both of those guys, it's kinda pathetic. If that's the route they are going, they need multiple rings out of it.
  22. mvp 78
    I agree. When it comes to roster crunch time, you cut a guy like Arroyo, before you get rid of a guy like Downs.
  23. mvp 78
    Christian Koss born 1/27/98: 335 OBP, 802 OPS in AA Jeter Downs born 7/27/98: 329 OBP, 728 OPS in AAA I'm not sold that Koss has a much higher ceiling than Downs, if any. Koss is probably just an upgrade over a guy like Arauz next season when he's added to the 40.
  24. mvp 78
    10-15 minutes per week is probably too much if the best someone can come up with is trade Xander for Soto.
  25. mvp 78
    Where would he play? Downs is at SS. Move Downs to 2B? Have Koss play 2B? Koss is supposedly much better at SS. He is Rule 5 eligible this offseason. May need to get a good look at him.
