    He is the type of guy who could just figure it out and go on a run, but he's not setting up the Sox to succeed right now. Dodgers offense is RH heavy, so I'm not sure he's a good play against them.

    The day the Sox signed Pablo and Hanley was a very confusing time on here. Nobody quite knew what the plan was for those two. We never really found out either. Should have just signed Hanley and left Pablo alone.

    Sox should go for high upside guys. With the Sox current roster construction, they need guys that can throw lots of k's. Greinke is basically a ground ball pitcher who would have a good FIP here, but his ERA would suffer with the cement shoes in the IF.

    Most obscure guy to win a WS ring with the Sox? Earl Snyder: 1 G, 4 PA, 0 H, 1K, 0 BB, -0.1 fWAR, he did make 3 assists and 2 putouts in his one game at 3b. He hit 58 bombs for the PAWSOX in 03-04.

    I'm happy with Schwarber's career 148 OPS+ at Fenway.

    Even if he pitched just ok, it is a smart move. He either takes it and stays another year or the Sox can go out and grab another QO guy without losing a pick.

    @Yankees The New York Yankees announced today that they have re-signed Manager Aaron Boone to a three-year contract through the 2024 season with a club option for 2025. Good move IMO!
  9. mvp 78
    He deserves it IMO.

    Why trade Dalbec? I don't think he has a high trade value. He's cheap, so I'd rather keep him as a bench option and see if he can fill in at a few positions.

    I'm not sure the Sox should be collecting 38 year old starters.
  12. mvp 78
    Still seems like 1 "off" year.

    Even years: 2014: 3.4 fWAR 2016: 3.3 fWAR 2018: 1.4 fWAR (worst season for sure) 2020: COVID 14 and 16 seem ok to me.

    Best WS Subplots: Dodgers VS Red Sox (Betts return to BOS, Kiké and Verdugo return to LAD) Dodgers VS Astros (Dodgers face off against WS rival that cheated them) Braves VS Red Sox (Interleague Rivalry, digging up some old fans who remember seeing the Braves in Boston) Braves VS Astros (2005 NLDS revenge??? IDK)

    Settled? I think it makes sense to take the first QO and then go to FA the following offseason. 1. He sat out 2020 so there was question about how well he'd perform. 2. If you have a QO attached to you, less teams are likely to bid on you. 3. He was given 18.9M for one year which almost doubled his career earnings. 4. Now he can go into FA after pitching a full season and not having a QO attached to him. Seems like a good idea to me!

    I'd go 5. I wouldn't go 7.

    Jansen 547 OPS vs LHB. Graterol 967 OPS vs LHB.

    One day later, Garcia's knee was perfectly fine during practice. Interesting. We'll see how his knee holds up the next outing. Probably won't act up if his team is leading.

    Get Werner out of that room ASAP.

    Whiff % and k rate are two completely different things. You can get a whiff on a 3-0 count. You brought up K rate.
  21. mvp 78
    I'm not worried about next year right now. I'm sure he'll work his ass off this offseason to fix whatever's going wrong. I know he's really a workout warrior and he's not just going to cash a paycheck. He may have to reinvent himself at some point though. I was looking through his statcast and it shows him throwing a sinker more often when he was younger. Was it really a sinker or was he just getting more movement on his 4 seamer then? Is it a pitch he needs to bring back?

    They won their division, so they were a presumptive favorite.

    His last 3 starts: 6 innings, 37%K rate, 3.00 WHIP. Anything pop out to you?
  25. mvp 78
    His final start of the regular season, he had a 27 k/9. Does that mean it was a good start? It ignores his 3.00 WHIP. He's striking out guys, but it's ugly. It's the definition of smoke and mirrors.
