  1. @BNightengale Dustin Pedroia says he has no regrets, and is at peace, holding no grudge towards Manny Machado over the slide in 2017 that basically ended his career. "We made it back. I played 9 games when 90% of the doctors said there's zero chance. ...It's ok.''
  2. I didn't know that Dustin was called up the day following the Boston Massacre in 2006.
  3. Press conferences where every interviewer has to ask "can you hear me ok?" are just great.
  4. @joonlee Pedroia said he was planning to play as recently as last January, when he found out he needed to get a partial knee replacement The pandemic delayed the procedure until December, and Pedroia can no longer run, says playing with his kids was a "grind" before the surgery
  5. From Press Conf: Pedroia said that since his last surgery (partial knee replacement) that he can finally live comfortably again. He was told that nobody had ever come back after this surgery. He can't run, but can walk just fine. He said "why do I need to run."
  6. If they traded him, they would have had enough $$$ to keep Mookie.
  7. Richards and Perez aren't official yet, are they?
  8. Devers is also 2 inches taller. His legs seem much thicker than Pablo, who carried a lot of his weight in his midsection.
  9. Worrying about the bottom of the 40 man roster is a waste. It's more important to worry about the bottom of your 25 man roster.
  10. The MLBPA turned down the DH rule because it was linked to increase playoff games where the players don't get enough of the pie.
  11. I wasn't looking to get the trade to work out. I was trying to show a deal that was tilted in BOS favor.
  12. Yup, Pedroia/Barnes/ERod/Ottavino come off the books this year. JD, Eovaldi, VAZ and Beni are gone the next.
  13. Pillar only signed a one year deal last year. I don't think he'll get longer than that this time around.
  14. I didn't want to go too crazy with a deal. I tried to make it look like a modest overpay.
  15. Yup, there was no way they were getting out of the lux tax hit.
  16. For example: Boston trades Devers Braves trade Riley (3B), Muller (LHP), Waters (OF) Riley is ready to take over at 3B. Muller would be good starting depth to go along with Mata. Waters could start in CF this year. Is it a package Bloom would like? IDK. But it's the type of deal I could see him making.
  17. Yup. I'd be sad to see him go, but if some team wanted to overpay for him, it's time to go.
  18. https://twitter.com/iJordanMoore/status/1356274851523276800 Pedroia steals second and beats shift by running to third.
  19. @joonlee In 2010, when David Ortiz was hitting .149 and people were calling him washed and that he should retire, Pedroia jumped to his defense "Couple years ago, I had 60 at-bats, I was hitting .170 and everyone was ready to kill me too. What happened?" "Laser Show."
  20. I agree. I think they should shop everyone (at least listen to offers) because you never know when a deal that is too good to be true lands on your desk.
  21. Kiké has a higher career OPS and higher UZR/150 in CF. He's also signed for longer and is younger.
  22. I had never heard the story about Papi not knowing Dustin's first name. That's a good one. Also, I forgot the original reason for him saying "laser show." He was a good teammate, until he wasn't.
  23. @JoeyMacHockey Pedroia used only two gloves his entire big league career. That's 1,512 games with only two mitts.
  24. @pgammo My favorite Dustin Pedroia: We entered back gate to Coor's before 2007 WS G3. I had credential. Pedey did not. Guard wouldn't believe he played. "Why don't you to the locker room," Pedroia replied, "and ask Jeff Francis ?" Pedroia had led off 1st inning, G1,w/ HR off Francis.
  25. @ChrisCotillo To reiterate: Red Sox will pay Pedroia in full in 2021 and his salary will still count against the CBT.
