  1. Arozarena is pitching this year?
  2. Sensations Cabaret? Body Talk? The Glass Slipper?
  3. Today he’s the #2 catcher.
  4. #RedSox have 71 players on their ST roster for the moment (counting Plawecki on COVID list). They can have many as 75. Some teams have announced a "reserve squad" of extra players for games. Sox won't be doing that. For now AAA season expected to start shortly after MLB season. 3:55 PM · Feb
  5. It's that time of year again folks: @SmittyOnMLB Andrew Politi among Boston Red Sox’s most interesting pitchers at spring training camp, brings mid-90s fastball with spin and ‘chip’ on his shoulder
  6. @ByMcCullough Blake Snell thanked the Red Sox last year for trading Mookie Betts out of the American League East. Snell, now a fellow denizen of the National League West, said today he has rescinded his thank you to Boston.
  7. The Rays need to fill a roster for little money. They need to collect guys like Springs and Mazza and hope one turns out ok. Hernandez was expendable to the Rays since they have much better C depth than the Sox do.
  8. They lost Snell and Morton in FA. They lost Chrinos to TJS. That's a lot of innings to make up for.
  9. It's just a college town that empties out the summer. I'm surprised they haven't moved to Nashville by now.
  10. @redsoxstats Rankings roundup on Ronaldo Hernandez: #11 The Athletic/Law #13 Baseball America #14 MLB Pipeline #23 Fangraphs Tampa has the #1 farm system. He was Baseball America's #56 overall prospect in 2019 before sliding off. Even if some shine wore off, this is still a headscratcher.
  11. @BaseballValues We're scratching our heads on this one. We know Hernandez's stock has fallen, and it's possible it's tanked more than is publicly known. But this still seems like a massive drop-off for a player who was a Top 100 prospect a year ago, considering both Mazza and Springs were DFA'd. One other possibility - this could be something of a two-part trade. We've seen that in the past, where two teams make two separate lopsided trades - one in favor of each team - and they ultimately even out when combined. We'll have to wait and see if that's the case here.
  12. God Bless America?
  13. @SmittyOnMLB Boston Red Sox place catcher Kevin Plawecki on the COVID-19 related IL, which doesn’t require positive test
  14. Bloom is killing BTV this offseason with his trades.
  15. @BaseballValues The #Rays acquisition of RHP Chris Mazza ($0.2M trade value), LHP Jeffrey Springs ($0.0M) and cash ($0.1M) from the #RedSox in exchange for C Ronaldo Hernandez ($13.8M) and IF Nick Sogard ($0.1M) is rejected by our model as an overpay by Tampa Bay.
  16. I don't follow the NL as much. Hard to say how good the Nats really are. They didn't look like a good team last year. Very top heavy.
  17. I was inferring that Hernandez would be the Sox' best C prospect. The Rays have other C's that are better than Hernandez.
  18. Trading Mazza and Springs for the org's best C prospect seems like a coup to me.
  19. They'll be better than Tampa and Cleveland. I think the 47% is indicative of expanded playoffs, rather than the strength of the ballclub.
  20. People say that all the time. It's fool's gold IMO.
  21. @IanCundall Hernandez will be inside the top 20 when he makes his debut in the @SoxProspects rankings. Wong is #21 currently.
  22. Hernandez was a highly ranked prospect at one point, but both his hitting and fielding took a step back in 2019. He was on their taxi squad last year, so maybe there could be something there. Rays fans are talking themselves into the deal because they like Springs k/9 and Hernandez was on the 40 man but probably not close enough to MLB to be called up anytime soon. So Hernandez will have to be put on the Sox 40 man, right?
  23. @mlbtraderumors Cubs Nearing Deal With Brandon Workman
  24. @adamdberry Source confirms this Rays-Red Sox trade is in the works. Other prospect going to Boston will be Nick Sogard, the Rays’ 12th-round pick in 2019.
