  1. All you've said is "it's a head scratcher." At this point, you probably need to call up your PCP.
  2. Sounds like if they just dumped him if he struggled in 2022 that it would be just fine then. So what's all the worry for?
  3. Maybe Bloom's budget isn't the one you have stuck on your dart board?
  4. The real decline starts at 35. He's not there yet.
  5. But why? Bloom clearly values JBJ's glove. He didn't make the move because he was bored.
  6. That's because you are a good poster.
  7. If he has a 700 OPS and is playing his typical solid CF, you can hide the bat in the 9 hole. It's more than I'd like to pay, but I think the overall value to the team is better than what we would have had with Renfroe because it also upgrades 2b by moving Kiké there.
  8. Wrong. If the Sox already wanted to sign Suzuki, they knew they could/should deal Renfroe.
  9. That happened long before the Sox signed JBJ. Sox felt they didn't like ERod's number and they moved on. It had nothing to do with JBJ.
  10. Who? And were the Sox linked to that player before the JBJ trade?
  11. Unless they were planning on the other deal before trading JBJ (i.e. signing Suzuki).
  12. On who? They weren't linked to any of the top FA SP's.
  13. I don't see them trading JBJ. I do see them acquiring many more pieces to fill out the roster though. If not, it's because they have extended Raffy and Xander.
  14. Maybe they see 2022 as a last go at it with Sale, Xander and JD possibly not being part of the plans in 2023?
  15. What additional features can we buy that will upgrade Wacha? Power steering? Why do you make so many assumptions about what the budget will be? Don't the Sox have a history of going over when they need to?
  16. What are the moves you'd make that would cause the JBJ trade to make more sense? Signing another OFer? Bringing in a better 2B?
  17. I'm going on the assumption that Bloom knows how much he has to spend and that he's not going to beat his head against the cap without being prepared for it.
  18. On one of the Sox Prospects podcasts, they discussed that there is typically a slow down in signings in December anyway. I don't think we're going to really feel the difference until February when ST doesn't start up. Once the crocuses start popping out of the snow and there are no MLB players in Fort Myers, we'll start to feel it more. They are still going to do a non-MLB Spring Training though, right?
  19. He's overpaid. He doesn't deserve 10M AAV.
  20. It's hard to grade one trade when the offseason isn't over. We also have no idea what other teams were offering in relation to Renfroe.
  21. This post should be T Gel for moon's current condition.
  22. Renfroe's career high in RBI prior to 2021: 68. If you prorate 2020, he averaged 70 RBI per year for the last 5 years. On a per plate appearance basis, Dalbec was more likely to get an RBI than Renfroe. Most of the board is fine with shelving Dalbec once Casas comes up. Why fret about Renfroe?
  23. Bell, he was in decline! 2018 114 WRC+ 2019 99 WRC+ 2020 78 WRC+
