    Gallen was a TOTR guy a few years ago, but his stuff hasn't been the same for a while now. He is not worth the QO and probably doesn't have #2 upside anymore. He can still give you innings, but is more like a 2 WAR guy going forward. We want a guy that is better than Bello and Gallen is probably about Bello's level TBH.
  2. mvp 78
    Prior to the trade, he could flat out hit. He had multiple leg injuries (both hamstrings) in '24 and never came back from it. Braves lucked out on the timing with that guy.
  3. mvp 78
    He was very excited to start Kiké at SS in '23! There's a difference between platooning guys and churning through a bad roster. He likes platooning guys and showcasing a player's strength. I don't think he seeks out churning through DFA'able players like he had to in '23-'24.

    I think Brezzz knows what the budget is and if he adds Gio at 22M, there isn't much room to add a #2. Gio isn't better than Bello and may not be much better than some of the other younger, cheaper options as well. I could find something better to do with 22M anyway.
  5. mvp 78
    I also wouldn't put too much stock into how he was portrayed in the doc. Remember how they kinda made Wong into a villain and had a little story about Wong not calling the right pitches for Bello. Turns out, Bello said all year long in '25 how much he loved pitching to Wong and kept him as his personal caddy.
  6. mvp 78
    Maybe Brezzz believes he'd accept the option and doesn't think he's worth 22M? Maybe he's worried about Gio's health? Not many guys have taken the QO.
  7. mvp 78
    It makes me more confident that they won't get a guy attached to a QO, but will re-sign Breggie and trade for a starter.
  8. mvp 78
    That's why I keep talking about Hoskins, not because he's the best player available but because he fits the org's targeted profile.
  9. mvp 78
    If they don't DFA him, he has to be on the Opening Day roster. 🙃
  10. mvp 78
    We can revisit it after he goes elsewhere and absolutely shoves. 🫠
  11. mvp 78
    His best season when he was more aggressive at the plate and struck out looking less.

    Romy vs LHP 978 OPS '25 879 OPS '24 He's no folk hero. He just hits LHP and the Sox have a lot of prominent LHBs (Abreu, Duran, Mayer, Anthony, Masa, Casas).
  14. mvp 78
    👀
  15. mvp 78
    At worst, he's injury insurance for the start of the year that they can DFA at the end of ST if they don't need him.
  16. mvp 78
    At least he's not a LHP.
  17. mvp 78
    Looks like they will be tendering Criswell a contract:
  18. mvp 78
    Right now, the rep is INJURY RISK.
  19. mvp 78
    Decent? Overpay if you have to.
  20. mvp 78
    I think we heard there was actual interest in Yandy at the time, but never heard about other 1b options.
  21. mvp 78
    We talking about the bottom of the 40 man roster, ultimately. Not guys that have a ton of value. They are all fairly disposable at some point.
  22. mvp 78
    That went into my calc too.
  23. mvp 78
    Eaton has one more option remaining.
  24. mvp 78
    Hamilton still has an option for next season.
  25. mvp 78
    Sogard is not a better fielder than Hamilton at SS or 2B. Hamilton > Eaton > Sogard
