    I was just listing several options available to them. Ryan Watson has been fairly disappointing. I don't know if there are different expectations for him, but I think the Sox can do better than just holding onto one roster spot for a clear mop up guy. Unless they seem him as a future 7th/8th inning guy, the years of control don't make sense. Who cares? His statcast page gets worse every time he pitches.

    This is all Beacon's fault. Boo Beacon! Bring back Carmine!

    World Series MVP Bruce Hurst.

    In order to add, someone would have to come off: Casas - 60 day DFA/Deal an IFer (Seigler, Cheng, Sogard) DFA Watson Crawford - 60 day

    After KC went down, that was 2b last year 75% of the time.
  6. mvp 78
    Romy/Hamilton platoon. Yeah.
  7. mvp 78
    Just put him at #2 now and get him used to hitting there.
  8. mvp 78
    I don't believe the promotion from AA to AAA is as big of an adjustment for hitters, so he may not see a second half flameout.
  9. mvp 78
    They were happy with Mayer at 3b for all of the offseason if Bregman didn't sign. Once they found out that Romy was out, they had to pivot and acquire Durbin. Ranger was the settle.
  10. mvp 78
    "Ranger Suarez" was the settle. That is what everyone said at the time he was signed.
  11. mvp 78
    Verlander and Kershaw are pretty close to me. I'd have both of them behind Pedro, Clemens, Big Unit and Maddux.
  12. mvp 78
    Having 5 players who can't all play at once is causing them to be out of rhythm and underperform. Duran looks terrible. Anthony is off to an awful start. Bad roster construction!
  13. mvp 78
    The settle was Suarez I thought? Durbin's deal just replaces a bullpen contract or whoever else Breslow would've acquired at that point in the offseason.
  14. mvp 78
    No.
  15. mvp 78
    They could be good acquisitions, but still not equal value for losing a top of the order foundational bat. You can still lament the loss of said good acquisitions in terrible trades later on (particularly the Tibbs for May deal).
  16. mvp 78
    It's April 16th and the team is a middling OBP team. It doesn't close the book on anything.
  17. mvp 78
    Didn't prevent him from picking up the phone to call Bernie Madoff.
  18. mvp 78
    Kershaw had one of the greatest pitches of all time in his repertoire. Early just has a lot decent pitches. They are both tall, white lefties. Hard to really compare the two otherwise. Eary's stuff moves in and out. Kershaw's was really up and down.
  19. mvp 78
    It is just one hot week. Happy to have it though!
  20. mvp 78
    SP, on their transactions page.
  21. mvp 78
    Allmer got promoted to POR, so Futrell took his spot.
  22. mvp 78
    As someone who saw young Kershaw at Dodgers stadium a few times, no.
  23. mvp 78
    Oh sure. I've been a fan for a few years now. People just need to be reasonable with their expectations.
  24. mvp 78
    Is your argument now that the Devers trade was good, but Breslow just made two STINKERS after? That doesn't make anything better. This org isn't able to evaluate their own players internally now so they'll just trade their good prospects away for pennies on the dollar? Yuck!
  25. mvp 78
    Harrison was basically traded for the comp pick (Marcus Phillips). Sox didn't see a fit for Harrison here as he wasn't really taking to the pitching dev. 🫠
