Maybe some teams aren't buying into the defensive metrics surrounding catchers? Maybe there was some breaking point for his performance last year? IDK.
To me, as long as the starting pitchers are healthy, they'll be fine in the long run. The trouble is that they can't dig themselves into too deep of a whole. It is only April and I do typically wait until the end of May to make any grand statements of the season, but this .250 winning % ain't gonna cut it much longer.
I'm glad to be going on vacation tomorrow. A whole week of not being able to watch the Sox. I hope they turn things around and can become competent again.
