I'm not sure how a contending team like the Sox give Swihart consistent playing time. They need to win games and if Swihart isn't producing in short spurts, there's no incentive to playing him 150 games just because you feel like it. And that .391 BABIP in the second half of 2015 (his best at any level over a long stretch) may have played a very large part in the numbers he put up that year.

Hard for the defending champs to fill a roster spot with a guy like that. He'll get a ML deal elsewhere and that's probably for the best. I think we all rooted for Clay to succeed but it always seemed "one step forward, two steps back" with him. Fans see him as a guy with top of the rotation talent (which he's shown flashes of) but either his body, preparation or something else is preventing him for consistently being successful.

Didn't help that in his prior 5 seasons to that he only had one season with WAR above 1. He came in with a lot of potential, but seemed to waste it and just have shaky season after shaky season.
-
They are going with the same staff that helped lead them to 108 wins and a WS. Seems ok to me.
-
I'm intrigued that some people think his bat has anything in it. He hasn't shown anything since 2014 in AA.

Could Kyler Murray play in NFL/MLB? Next Deion Sanders Bo Jackson?

It's a doomsday cult.

@Ken_Rosenthal Free-agent RHP Nathan Eovaldi in agreement with #RedSox, pending physical, sources tell The Athletic.
-
You keep saying this like it's a thing. It's not.
-
Good news is that the Sox won't have to worry about re-signing Price until November 2022.
-
What Jacko is inferring is that the Sox window won't close for another 10+ years. I agree with him.
-
No, you're not ridiculous. The idea of trading Mookie is though. I think you could make a case for trading anyone else on the roster, but I don't see how you could replicate Mookie's value in a trade. If you have the best player alive, you keep him.
-
They won 108 games with 3 catchers on the roster, maybe they can win 120 games with 4 catchers on the roster.
-
That's not true either. They could have and should have traded Pedroia. I was correct in harping on it even though you think I was just buzzarding because apparently I just can't be right about something if you disagree with it.
-
Is this turning into a Decepticon forum now?
-
Please don't compare trading the best player alive to trading an aging 2b.
-
Put me out of my misery.
-
I was told this would be a non-silly thread about what we could get back for JBJ, but now we're talking about trading Mookie... This place is too ridiculous for me sometimes.
-
Problem is that the union delegate from each team is most likely making about $5M and is looking out for himself rather than the lower earners.
-
It might not be true for you, but it's true for a lot of other posters. I'll update my TS cheat sheet to note your thoughts on this matter.
-
If you can hit for power in AA, you can hit for power at other levels. If Dalbec was in San Diego's farm, he'd be competing for a starting job for Opening Day.
-
I trust that if Dombrowski is in the position he'll be able to fill the needs of the big club either through FA, trades or promotion. He's done really well so far.
-
That's not true from a lot of people's perspectives. It's more often than not used as a complaint.
-
He's going to do what he always does, keep the minor leaguers that he thinks will have a nice fit in BOS and trade the others.
