  1. Our family is split between MA and FL, so transitioning was pretty easy. Plus, my wife and kids HATED the winter. Because of the pandemic, we haven't been back North since we moved. There really isn't much that I miss about New England at the moment.
  2. Also, Catcher is a big weakness in the organization. If you can spin off guys like Springs and Mazza for a lottery ticket at C, I'm all for it.
  3. There's also this rumor: @ChrisCotillo Source: Red Sox have some interest in reliever Ben Heller, who the Yankees released last week. 29-year-old has had injury issues but has been good (1.48 ERA in 24.1 IP since 2017) while healthy. Should be popular on FA market. Red Sox still looking at bullpen options.
  4. He's like Mr Miyagi trimming his bonsai trees.
  5. After my snowblower died on me in 2019, it was the last straw. New England winters aren't worth it. Spring kinda sucks. The only good time of the year was June - October. It is wild having kids baseball start right after Xmas though.
  6. @alexspeier Both Mazza (RHP) and Springs (LHP) were recently cleared off the 40-man roster by the Red Sox to open spots for recently signed players. Hernandez, a 23-year-old, spent 2019 in High-A, hitting .265/.299/.397 with 9 homers in 103 games.
  7. @alexspeier Red Sox and Rays are close to swinging a trade that would send Jeffrey Springs and Chris Mazza to Tampa Bay for C Ronaldo Hernandez and another prospect.
  8. My pool was 86 this weekend.
  9. https://www.fangraphs.com/depthcharts.aspx?position=Standings Yankees: 96 wins Jays: 89 wins Sox: 87 wins Rays: 83 wins O's: 67 wins
  10. Yanks: 93 - 69 Jays: 87 - 75 Sox: 85 - 77 Rays: 80 - 82 O's: 49 - 113 (47 - 115 is their franchise worst season) It'd be really dope if the O's were so bad that they were worse than the 2003 Tigers that went 43 - 119 (the worst MLB season since the 62 Mets).
  11. Hmmmmm, I wonder why jacko prefers PECOTA to the Fangraphs projection....
  12. Dyson isn’t really capable in CF anymore.
  13. The team loses JBJ and Beni, but adds Marwin, Kiké, Franchy and Renfroe. "Wow, much worse team! Downgrade!"
  14. You see, JD would have even been worse the extra 100 games, Raffy would've taken longer to turn things around and the pitching would have been worse! This ignores how luck impacted the Sox in a short season (ranked high in total bases, high in left on base, high in double plays and low on sacrifices). Over the course of a full season, more runners on base would mean more runs, which means more wins.
  15. Especially since you can get back under it fairly easily.
  16. We can get past it. Jacko probably cannot.
  17. Keeping Brice isn't nice.
  18. He's a capable CFer for now. Re-signing him would be throwing a bone to the fans. There is a big hole in CF. The only reason not to do it is $$$.
  19. Gives us less to talk about. PLUS WHAT IF THE GUY YOU WANT TO KEEP NEEDS TJ, BUT THEY GUY YOU DFA DOESN'T NEED IT. BAD MOVE BUCKO!
  20. They all float down here.
  21. I bet they get to 39 guys on the roster at the end of Spring Training and hope to snag someone on the wire.
  22. We'd use his slot for Marwin. Would need to dump someone else to sign another MLB guy.
  23. I would say he's more deserving than the guys you mention. I'm just saying that there's a chance that he's just and up and down guy anyway.
  24. C'mon moon, jacko is on a 5 year streak of being right about the Red Sox! He can't possibly screw this one up.
  25. Can move players in Spring Training. During Spring Training and during the MLB regular season up through August 31st, an injured or ill player can be placed on or transferred to the MLB 60-day Injured List only if his club's reserve list is full A player cannot be placed on the MLB 60-day Injured List after the conclusion of the MLB regular season, and during the post-season and off-season, up until the start of Spring Training (beginning on the date that pitchers & catchers are scheduled to report). Thursday is pitchers & catchers.
