Unless they used the open roster spot to sign a decent LF like Ozuna.
-
Maybe Jenny's?
-
@alexspeier Corey Kluber threw his fourth bullpen of his rehab in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, earlier today, this one in front of scouts/evaluators from what one person present estimated at about 25 teams.
-
I disagree. My personal spending habits would certainly change if my budget increased significantly.
-
@middlebrooks I honestly think the Red Sox can bring back several familiar faces to fill holes in the roster. Porcello, Perez, Brockstar, JBJ, Mitchy Two Bags? How would the fan base feel about that? Well, we'd take just about anything at this point. Brock Holt would have to be a MiLB deal though.
-
Yup
-
They aren't planning that for this season.
-
Isn't Jiminez their LF?
-
I can't say I'm on board with your logic after only 1.5 offseasons.
-
I think it was telling that they said he would be good when the lights are on. The feeling is he doesn't take practice serious enough. Maybe he'll never make that next jump? If he was traded, I wouldn't jump out the window.
-
Bloom should listen to discussions on trading ANYONE.

https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/catcher_framing?year=2020&team=&min=q&sort=4,1 Per statcast data, he's the 3rd best Catcher at framing. His pop time is average. People complain that he throws the ball around too much, but he hasn't had more than one throwing error in a season since 2017. However, there aren't many stat geeks that think CERA has much value at all.
-
I wouldn't do that deal. I'd just keep Beni.
-
Gotta feed that monster!
-
Well, if Plawecki could have a 400 BABIP again...
-
He really has blossomed the past 3 years. Maybe he's at his peak now and will be much less of a player in 3-4 years, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better catcher for the next few years.
-
It's like all the talk of "well, the Sox did reach out to the FA that just signed!" Until something happens, it's going to be a boring offseason of just speculation and wondering how low they'll keep the payroll. Can't say Andriese and Renfroe move the meter at all.
-
I hadn't heard that. I'd be surprised if Beni brought back something that was more of an upgrade over Pivetta. Maybe just a few young relievers? IDK.
-
I can't say I'm looking forward to a trade. I'd rather keep him than dump him at his lowest value.
-
Per fWAR 16-20, he's 9th ranked C 17-20, he's 6th 18-20, he's 3rd 19-20, he's 3rd I think his growing pains at the start of his career affect your outlook on his profile.
-
We need to find a catcher, so let's trade 2 of them?
-
I heard that it was more like a Beni for prospects trade. I don't think they expect to get MLB talent back.
-
DSL guys come with much less fanfare. Casas was a 1st round pick who had already been promoted to high A when Jiminez was in Lowell. He's also projected to be ready either this year or next. Song has a legit MLB arsenal right now. If it wasn't for the Navy, he'd be in the discussion for opening day roster this year. Jimenez won't be here until 2023 most likely. He's just a little too far away.
-
Should make the Sox rethink not grabbing him then.
-
That decimal point was decimated.
