    Good hard hit rate and pull air in '23. Thought he'd figure it out in '25. LOL nope.
  2. mvp 78
    Kinda.
  3. mvp 78
    Take that money and use it to fund youth baseball instead.
  4. mvp 78
    Considering what the Red Sox have put in the IF the past few seasons, he'd look like Keith Hernandez to us.
  5. mvp 78
    His fielding ability hasn’t been a particular standout strength. Didn't he win 3 gold glove equivalents at 1B/3B in the NPB?

    https://www.mlb.com/news/jorge-polanco-vesting-player-option-2026-season Essentially, Polanco -- who was limited mightily with a left knee injury during his first season in Seattle -- gained clarity on his outlook for 2026 and the financial security that now comes with it, if he indeed exercises the option. The Mariners also carry a $750,000 buyout on that option.

    Arenado was thought to be a mild bounceback candidate going into '25, but he kept sliding. Sox would be dumb to buy into him at this point. Exit velo, xWOBA, barrel %, hard hit % are all bottom 12th percentile. Back to back awful years from him. Not sure I'd trade Hicks for him straight up.
  8. mvp 78
    Yup, that's why they extended Raffy.
  9. mvp 78
    The real AAV is what counts against the CBT.
  10. mvp 78
    Vlad costs 35M next year. Schwarbgman costs 85M. Not equivalent.
  11. mvp 78
    These are all too high for me.
  12. mvp 78
    Fans need to go back to bullying JH in public again.
  13. mvp 78
    For what they bring in, it's not a drop it the bucket.

    Eaton's 2022 was very similar to his 2025. Wong should be better, but it's more likely his bat is like '23 than it is like '24. There was a whole article on here about how lucky his numbers were in '24 prior to this season. We saw the regression in '25.
  15. mvp 78
    I'd rather have Eaton on the Bench than Wong as a third Catcher, yes.
  16. mvp 78
    I think Suarez would do well at Fenway. I'm not entirely sold on him, but he's an option if they can't bring back Bregman on a 3 year deal.
  17. mvp 78
    He's worse than Devers and he may end up with a bigger contract too.
  18. mvp 78
    No, I'm not advocating for just signing guys to sign guys. They need to target guys that fit their needs via FA and trades. With the value of 1b being relatively low, it could be easier to just go out and acquire a 1b via trade. Or just sign Hoskins to a cheaper deal than Alonso. Sox needs: 1b, 2b, 3b, SP 1b Hoskins (1 year deal) 2b Mayer plus cheap 2b/SS acquisition to backup 3b Suarez (multi year deal, move to 1b in '27) SP Cease (looking for short term high AAV per reports) or Gallen

    Ohtani and Freeman have been good. Kershaw has stunk/been injured since Betts showed up.
  20. mvp 78
    Have you seen the price of steak lately? I don't know how Betts even affords to live in LA on that salary.
  21. mvp 78
    In AAA, it's whatever. I think notin was believing he'd be on the bench in BOS.
  22. mvp 78
    If anyone is non-tendered it's Lowe. I think they try to offer him a 1/5M deal max.
  23. mvp 78
    Aroldis Refsnyder Are you suggesting they punt until '27 since there aren't any pending FA's?
  24. mvp 78
    It should be since his teammates are carrying him so much!!! 😎
  25. mvp 78
    Dodgers were happy with his postseason performance in '20, '21 and '24. He had an 809 OPS through the end of the NLCS this year.
