Whoever they get, it's going to have a Mike Cameron feel. I think anything they do at 2b or CF will be for minor pieces that are just fill ins until Downs and Duran are ready.
-
In the WS w/o him. I’m sure they don’t care.

The cover would have looked better with this picture of Pearce in the blue jersey https://sports.yahoo.com/world-series-mvp-steve-pearce-returning-red-sox-2019-225909018.html instead of David Price.

Will that number keep going down as people continue to cut the cord?

He was the WS MVP.
-
Should he have been though?
-
I'd say Todd Howard, but then he'd port TalkSox to a smart fridge or something.
-
Todd Chrisley?
-
If 28 year old Manny Ramirez was on the market this offseason, the Sox would be dumb not to do a mega deal with him.

You break the bank to keep Betts and Bellinger together. LA can afford it.

Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that the Red Sox have interviewed Cubs coach Will Venable for their managerial opening. Venable joined the Cubs' front office in 2017 after retiring as a player and then served as the team's first base coach in 2018 and 2019 before shifting to third base coaching duties in 2020. The 37-year-old graduate of Princeton University should eventually get a chance to manage somewhere, even if he doesn't ultimately land the job in Boston. Heyman notes that Alex Cora "has been viewed as the favorite" coming off his one-year suspension related to the Astros' sign-stealing operation from 2017. Dodgers coach George Lombard and Pirates coach Don Kelly are among the other known managerial candidates for the Red Sox. -
Except that Tony Todd was the best Candy Man while Tony Gwynn and Todd Helton were the best Tony and Todd's respectively.

@Rotoworld_BB Will Venable interviews for Red Sox mgr opening Look forward to "Will Vulnerable" comments going forward.

Warwick Davis > Spencer Davis

So Kiermaier is conclusively better than JBJ? JBJ is NOT the greatest living CFer?
-
And kinda interesting that their two worst fielding positions may have been SS and C.
-
He was not last to leave. He was known for driving home in his uni because he wanted to get out of there. I saw him in his car in traffic like 10-15 minutes after a game was over once.
-
Their defense was fine. It wasn't otherworldly. I think they were just solid across the board pitching/defense/hitting.
-
I was confused about o and d then. I was just going by their components that factor into fWAR and it's not very clear on their website. Honestly, I think both Baseball Ref and Fangraphs are not very user friendly.

-
Well, how would you quantify that or is it just more eye test stuff? Soriano had a UZR/150's of 5.4/38.2/26.5 his first three years in the OF when he had 51 assists. He was second in dWAR for all OFers over that strecth. Seems pretty good, no?
-
And what are your thoughts on Manny's defense?
-
Just being all around good? Fangraphs disagrees though. 7th in dWAR. 8th in oWAR. 9th in fWAR. Only top 5 in BsR and BB%. Generally top half of the league otherwise.
