    Yes, sir.
  2. mvp 78
    Yeah, I don't see Schwarber coming back.

    I don't get the argument about NOT offering the QO. More often than not, players will outright reject the QO. Even Stephen freakin' Drew rejected the QO. My guess is that ERod rejects it too. It allows the Sox to sign a QO guy without losing anything or get a free comp pick. It just makes too much sense to offer anyone halfway decent a QO. And ERod was a top 20 SP per fWAR last season.

    Rodriguez Fangraphs: 4/20M, $80M Crowd median: 4/18M, $72M Crowd average: 4/18.2M, $78M Schwarber Fangraphs: 4/15M, $60M Crowd median: 4/15M, $60M Crowd average: 4/14.9M, $59.6M

    In strict Webster's terms, it seems that cash out would be to take the QO (convert noncash assets to cash) but cash in would be to reject the QO (settle accounts and withdraw from an involvement). They are kind of used interchangeably though.

    Hard to say. In FA, he can get a guaranteed 4 year deal, but for less AAV.
  7. mvp 78
    Much? IDK. He was a better bet than Kiké IMO. 2017 4.8 fWAR 2018 3.1 fWAR 2020 1.7 fWAR (would have been 3+ in a full season) 2021 3.1 fWAR Kiké only had one season above 3 (2018) before hitting the market. Taylor's value is completely in his bat since he had 5 straight years with 100+ WRC+. Kiké's value is in his glove and that doesn't get the cash registers ringing.

    Maybe he thinks he can get 4/40 or 3/35? IDK.
  9. mvp 78
    I think the Braves will break the bank to keep him around.
  10. mvp 78
    We "could" spend that 18M better, but that really depends on who is available in FA. What guys does Bloom think he can get on good value deals? We'll have to see. Maybe he can find another Renfroe or trade for another Pivetta.
  11. mvp 78
    There's a lot of chatter about the Sox trying to sneak into the SS market. I don't really see it.
  12. mvp 78
    You think Chris accepts? He's definitely at the high point of his career. This may be time to cash out.
  13. mvp 78
    @JonHeyman Red Sox extend qualifying offer to Eduardo Rodriguez
  14. mvp 78
    Then we can give him a QO next offseason.
  15. mvp 78
    Heyman: JD Martinez declines to exercise optout and remains a Red Sox.
  16. mvp 78
    What is a "reasonable" offer?
  17. mvp 78
    That was one of Miley's best seasons too, 2.7 fWAR.

    @mlbtraderumors Hiroshima Carp To Post Outfielder Seiya Suzuki For MLB Teams The slugging right fielder is considered to be among the very best players in NPB at the moment and is putting the finishing touches on a monster season that has seen him slash .319/.436/.644 with 38 home runs, 26 doubles and nine steals (in 13 tries). That’s hardly a one-year fluke, either; dating back to 2018, the right-handed-hitting Suzuki has put together a combined .319/.435/.592 batting line with 121 home runs, 115 doubles, four triples and 44 stolen bases (albeit in 72 attempts) through 2167 plate appearances. Unlike many sluggers, Suzuki achieves this production without selling out for the power. Since 2018, he’s fanned in only 16.4 percent of his plate appearances — compared to a nearly identical 16 percent walk rate.

    @Cubs The #Cubs today claimed LHP Wade Miley off waivers from the Reds.
  20. mvp 78
    Sure.
  21. mvp 78
    Ok, but this wasn't the 85-92 original replay system (2-3 replays per game). It was after it was re-rolled out in 1999. The past few years, the replays have been about 1.5 per game. Is your problem the reviewing of all turnovers and scoring plays? Did this happen in the past 5 years?
  22. mvp 78
    Ok? He hired DD to spend. He hired Bloom to get back under lux tax and then... We don't truly know what the plan is? How much will or won't they spend?
  23. mvp 78
    I disagree that he wants to be smart about spending. He didn't step in and stop the CC contract. He allowed both Hanley and Panda to sign on virtually the same day.
  24. mvp 78
    Yeah, the stuff has to be absolutely electric to get by on 2 pitches. Sale can't do it.
  25. mvp 78
    Yeah, the Sox paid a premium to bring JD in. It worked out well though.
