    So far: Tapia Lin (AAA) Leyer (AAA) Triggs Kickham Godley Peraza Covey (AAA) Puello (AAA) means they have accepted minors assignment to WOO.
  2. mvp 78
    All expected.

    @SmittyOnMLB The Rusney Castillo ERA in Boston officially is over:

    @Rotoworld_BB Nats decline options on Eaton, Kendrick, Thames Kendrick on a one year deal as placeholder for Downs? He's better than Arroyo et al.
  5. mvp 78
    Remember when Stanley didn't cross up Gedman?
  6. mvp 78
    Trust but verify.
  7. mvp 78
    Even your strawman is saying no.
  8. mvp 78
    That part was obvious. Hard for a guy like him to get back into gear. There is no excuse for Grady. None.
  9. mvp 78
    It would definitely be a keno ticket rotation.

    Bragg had 5.7 fWAR over the next two seasons. Moyer was only under contract through the end of 96. Good deal for the Sox.

    @mlbtraderumors Rangers Plan To Decline Corey Kluber's 2021 Option Offer a one year deal?
  12. mvp 78
    I agree that you consider that move if he's at 90 pitches or so. If it's Charlie Morton or anyone not named Blake Snell, the move doesn't get criticized IMO.
  13. mvp 78
    The good ol' eye test.
  14. mvp 78
    I do appreciate the Mariners for giving the Sox Varitek, Lowe and Dave Henderson. Bonus points for stealing Buhner from the Yankees too.
  15. mvp 78
    That's not the "b" in bWAR?
  16. mvp 78
    The analytics back up the idea that he's one of the greats of his generation.
  17. mvp 78
    The approach did backfire because they went to a guy who has been handing out runs lately.
  18. mvp 78
    I agree. And when those players become available, you start getting rid of the bottom of your 40 man.
  19. mvp 78
    Hoping all 26 Red Sox players get a roster spot on next year's AS team.

    Weber's xFIP in relief was 2.82. I think he should probably stay too. I'm probably overrating Mazza because of his high socks. For Valdez, he was really solid aside from 9/3 and 9/5 against the Jays.
  21. mvp 78
    In good news, it was nice that Brasier had a bounce back year. It looked like he was trending towards pitching himself out of the league in 2019.
  22. mvp 78
    I do wonder a little about Taylor though. Was it just COVID that reduced his velo? His FB was much worse than in 2019. Even though DHern's FB dropped in velo too, metrics still valued it as a plus pitch.
  23. mvp 78
    He's not a great piece, but you can do worse than him as the 6th-7th guy in your pen. And now that you can carry an 8th guy, it seems like you can definitely find room for him.
  24. mvp 78
    I agree. It still doesn't make much sense that they dfa'd Lakins. He would have been one of their best arms last year.
  25. mvp 78
    How I rank the pen: Unknown: Aybar (didn't even make it to the alternate site this year, is a former position player with no control, but is the youngest guy on the list) Solid arms to keep: Barns, Hernandez Decent/intriguing arms: Taylor, Brasier, Mazza, Valdez Up and down taxi squad guys: Brewer, Weber, Springs, Stock Low upside guys to dump/outright to AAA: Brice, Covey, Hall, Hart, Walden Dumping the low upside guys plus Puello, Peraza and either Chatham or Arroyo gives them enough room to protect 6-7 guys and pick a rule V guy.
