  1. I bumped this to give Renfroe a shout out, not to drag Dalbec/Chavis/Santana in here. Hunter, I'm glad I was wrong about you. You're still not great against RHP, but maybe you can be serviceable as an everyday guy and not just a platoon guy.
  2. Wilson has been around long enough where I still assume he's older than he actually is. He's less than a month older than Duran.
  3. At first, there was some concern that his HR's were cheap, but now he's sitting at 8 and it's only 6/10. I agree that it would be interesting to give him a shot especially since he has a much better glove than Cordero.
  4. @SoxNotes Hardest throws by American League outfielders in 2021: 1. Hunter Renfroe – 98.4 mph T2. Hunter Renfroe – 98.0 mph T2. Michael Taylor – 98.0 mph 4. Hunter Renfroe – 97.8 mph (source: Statcast) Also has a 861 OPS since May 1. Nice that he's not the black hole he was in April.
  5. I wonder if it's in part to AAA guys being off for all of 2020 as well as Cordero just needing time to get comfortable.
  6. ^^^ If he's leaving on his own terms, great!
  7. I'm not saying we should have signed him. Just that there is an obvious need for him somewhere in MLB. Odd that nobody found a spot for him. I was only questioning the "he's done" remark and stating that ERod is pitching worse than the dreaded 4.5 this year.
  8. I'd take Rocker, but if Bloom prefers Lawlar I would understand.
  9. A 4.5 ERA pitcher is better than what ERod is right now. It's a pitcher that has value and can save a bullpen.
  10. Why doesn't he have a job yet? Especially in light of all the injuries this year?
  11. If Leiter is available at 4, I can't see the Sox passing on him.
  12. I prefer true philosophers: Tip toe through the window By the window, that is where I'll be Come tip toe through the tulips with me Tip toe from the garden By the garden of a willow tree And tip toe through the tulips with me Knee deep in flowers we'll stray We'll keep the showers away And if I kiss you, in the garden In the moonlight, will you pardon me? And tip toe through the tulips with me
  13. Downs is not blocked. Downs is not ready. Downs just dropped 10 spots on the latest Top 100 list.
  14. Verdugo is out with a tight back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O5i0xq2bLk
  15. "Kids, you know how you asked Santa for that one really big present, but you got something that wasn't as great? That's what happened when the Red Sox traded Mookie Betts."
  16. 1. Danny Santana 1B 2. Rafael Devers 3B 3. J.D. Martinez LF 4. Xander Bogaerts DH 5. Hunter Renfroe RF 6. Marwin Gonzalez SS 7. Christian Arroyo 2B 8. Christian Vazquez C 9. Enrique Hernandez CF
  17. @ChrisCotillo Cora downplayed the Chris Sale reliever theory on @OMFonWEEI. “He’s a guy you put out there every five days.”
  18. https://www.mlb.com/redsox/ballpark/concessions Veggie Burger and Dog Visitor's Clubhouse Area
  19. @SPChrisHatfield Chavis was worse than Dalbec while up - even if line looks ok, chase rate was brutal. He hasn't fixed anything. (he went deep as I typed this of course) Santana is a bench guy at this point. I'm not sure I'm in a rush to just jettison him. He's on shaky ground tho, to be sure. Santana may be the next guy DFA'd. I bet Franchy comes back after the ASB if he continues to hit.
  20. Trade simulator gives Chavis virtually the same value as Aguilar.
  21. Why not try grabbing a guy like Jesus Aguilar? He's on a one year deal for a team that is going nowhere. I don't think he'd cost much prospect capital either.
  22. Casas would have many more AB's if 2020 had an MiLB season. I think they will move him along at a normal pace and pretend he played at A+ last year.
  23. Casas is the opening day 1b next season.
  24. Back in ye olden times, I'd always hit up Burrito Max in Kenmore Square before a game and/or show on Landsdowne. RIP
