    Garrett's best season since '21. Can't complain about it at all. Most people thought Chapman would just be a wild setup guy. He was otherworldly.
  2. mvp 78
    I don't remember that at all because most people weren't all that sold on Grissom's defense or power potential.
  3. mvp 78
    Nate Eaton and Nick Burdi combined for 0.00 ERA. At least deserve an honorable mention! 😎 Great write up as always.

    Send Cora to DR with a 1b mitt and have him hang out with Devers to smooth it over. That's all they had to do. It's just a FO that doesn't communicate well. It'll work out fine for some situations, but bite them in others.

    How was Bregman compliant? He never went to 2b?
  6. mvp 78
    This won't break my heart don't you know

    I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy...
  8. mvp 78
    Doesn't particularly help when you're facing a LHP, but ok.
  9. mvp 78
    They originally said Bregman was going to be signed to play 2b. I think that was just smokescreen to give them time to smooth things over with Raffy. He never ended up taking practice at 2b in ST. They really bungled it. Never figured out their plan.
  10. mvp 78
    I stopped looking at BTV once they charged $.

    Masa has value if the Sox are willing to eat a good portion of his contract TBH. Only 2 seasons left. If the Sox pay half of his deal, you can probably find a taker and get a prospect. Or you just trade for someone else's bad contract. Or you just DFA the guy and clear the roster spot!
  12. mvp 78
    Casas was already a bad 1b. Masa was already at DH. Brezzz needed to move one of them in the offseason and then communicate to Devers that he's going to spend the rest of his career at 1b. He'd have months to get ready. The transition would have been much easier on him if it was worked on during the offseason IMO. Maybe all along he wanted to trade Devers anyway? It wasn't his extension TBH.
  13. mvp 78
    Bregman did not look very comfortable at 3b to start the year.
  14. mvp 78
    The score doesn't mean anything. It's just for fun. Just look at the calc.
  15. mvp 78
    If he wasn't injured. If they'll take him, I'm shipping him down.
  16. mvp 78
    2025 throwing errors: 0 DRS: 2 OAA: -1 He was better than some of the guys we had at 1b.
  17. mvp 78
    And it's good that he's still putting up WAR. It makes it easier to trade him. He still has value.
  18. mvp 78
    WAR is still a counting stat and Duran led all Sox in PA's. If you go by bWAR, Rafaela has more WAR with over 100 fewer PA's.
  19. mvp 78
    When we all play fantasy CBO, we all value the players differently. Funny how that works.
  20. mvp 78
    I think he shouldn't be ranked that high. Dude didn't throw 40 innings and was barely pitching 3 innings per start when he was out there. Had blister issues and a crazy walk rate. Bullpen arm IMO.
  21. mvp 78
    It just comes down to them playing about the same number of total games played TBH. They really aren't similar hitters. Yandy's OPS+ is about 30 points higher, his bb rate is like twice as high and he has like 50% more career HR's than Verdugo. The math of the similarity scores just produces weird results.
  22. mvp 78
    Helps that it's skewed by him playing out of his mind last season. Over half of his career fWAR is from 2024. Will he be that good again? Hard to say. If his offensive numbers don't bounce back, his WAR won't get to that 3 year average ever again.
  23. mvp 78
    They'll get a good return for him. Hard to say what the Sox would give up. They reportedly had interest.
  24. mvp 78
    Not for Hamilton, but I wouldn't trade Witherspoon for him. Hamilton and one of Sandlin/Clarke/Valera? Sure. Yandy for Justin Gonzales? I'd think about it. My personal rankings are also different. I wouldn't trade Fajardo/Godbout/Eyanson/Phillips in a deal for Yandy.
  25. mvp 78
    25: 31 DRS, 11 OAA, 116 errors 24: 49 DRS, -18 OAA, 115 errors 23: -20 DRS, -51 OAA, 102 errors Better than 23 when they had Kiké at SS, probably! Better than 24? Not so sure! Seems like it's close enough to be about the same. IDK. Maybe it's a big improvement if we just ignore DRS, but I honestly hear more people state DRS throughout the season than OAA.
