    A flop would be an improvement for this team. Fred said they'd be no worse than 4th place.

    The further they fall under .500, the more reason to just make the switch to Mayer at SS. Unless they really don't see Mayer as the future SS and believe it's Arias.

    Rafaela and Abreu aren't inexperienced. Narvaez is 27! Don't need to find excuses for these guys anymore.

    2028?

    It's early, but the way this team is playing, there doesn't appear to be much life in this team. Bad coaching. Bad pitching. Bad defense. Poorly put together offense. This team feels 2012ish: a lot of good players that aren't moving forward together, underachieving pitching staff.

    Story moved down in the order. Masa starts over Duran. Duran started 147 of 162 games last season (91%). After today, he will have only started 8 of 10 games this season (80%). I would have sat Rafaela and played Duran in CF.

    Knowing Cora, Masa will be riding the pine.

    He was on the field for one of the pregame ceremonies recently.

    The Verdugo/O'Neill trades and Romy find are also very good deals. The FA misses are whatever to me. Sale was egregious, but he was able to trade for Crochet. If I say too much about the Devers trade again I'll get yelled at. The worry is that the this offseason hasn't looked so hot. If these guys don't pan out, there's a lot of work to do with a farm system that took a HUGE hit.

    They can nerd their way out of the bad numbers and find ways to convince themselves that the players have actually been playing well.

    His glove has been playable at times in BOS. For the most part, his bat has been awful. There is little to no reason to believe he could ever be a #2 hitter.

    It's not like Story has been Lou Gehrig at SS.
  14. mvp 78
    If Marcelo gets injured, he'd have to be replaced somewhere. That's why they signed IKF. Who cares if it's at SS or 2B? If Marcelo can get you to 110 - 120 G, put him at SS.
  15. mvp 78
    He was the 4th ranked prospect for the Giants at the time of the trade. He wasn't exactly a slouch.
  16. mvp 78
    Rafaela has not been his best self this year. People at the games have said his reads seems slower than in previous years.
  17. mvp 78
    Devers, Drohan, Hamilton and $22M for Durbin, May, Monasterio, Seigler, Ziehl, Bello 🫥

    Happy Birthday to Sox Legends Marty Pattin, Lou Merloni and Blaine Neal.

    FIP is a metric called Fielding Independent Pitching that estimates a pitcher's expected run prevention independent of the defensive performance surrounding them. xFIP takes that and replaces the pitcher's home run total with an expected home run total. I just noticed that Weissert looked much better via xFIP than anything else because he's been hammered so badly. xFIP assumes that eventually his numbers will come back down over time and that he's just stuck in SSS right now.

    They already have 4 Assistant General Managers, why not bring on a few more?
  21. mvp 78
    Story is the worst SS in MLB.

    PTBNL in Gray trade

    Ignoring the most recent offseason: Good deals Verdugo for Fitts, Weissert, Judice Ammons for Slaten Santos and Robertson for O'Neill Criswell one year FA '24 Claimed Romy Gonzalez on waivers Schreiber for Sandlin Yorke for Priester Rodriguez for Narvaez Teel, Montgomery, Meidroth and Gonzalez for Crochet Booser for Fajardo Gasper for Moran Newcomb MiLB deal Alex Bregman FA '25 Jordan for Matz Bad deals Sale for Grissom Giolito FA '24 Paulino, Cofffey and Batista for Jansen Portes for Sims Kavadas, Zeferjahn, Lugo and Vargas for Garcia Hendriks FA '24 Sandoval FA '25 Buehler FA '25 Priester for Rodriguez, Holobetz and Comp Pick Devers for Harrison, Hicks, Tibbs and Bello Tibbs and Ehrhard for May It's been kind of a mixed bag TBH. Some seemingly shrewd moves and some boneheaded ones thrown in.

    -4 DRS Rafaela has been really awful out there 😎
