  1. Gasper will find enough playing time in WOO. While the pitching down there is outstanding, the hitting is pretty rough. Aside from KC, Romero and Sogard, it has a lot of guys that probably won't have MLB impact (and that's stretching it for Sogard).
  2. I think Pete's point is that it's impressive that there are that many 40 man people onsite almost a week before the reporting date (includes KC and maybe a rehabbing Casas). He's been going to Spring Training for a long time and maybe it's not always like this.
  3. While Mexico did great last time, the previous two times, they were knocked out in the first round while Netherlands placed 4th those years.
  4. WBC doesn't happen until a few weeks into ST. All the players should report on Feb 15th before heading to their WBC teams.
  5. $8.2M last season. If the Sox offered him 5M, he probably signs. Sox were probably happy at 2.
  6. Proof of life:
  7. Oh boy. Are you threatening Masa with that? He doesn't want to play OF.
  8. Doesn't run well. Doesn't have power. Can't field a position. Doesn't hit LHP well. Useless as a bench role.
  9. Parking a DH on the bench? Fun.
  10. He'll be 39 this season. I think it's just more important for him to be at home, so a team is going to have to make it worth his while. He was a 1 fWAR guy last season, but was only paid 2.25M.
  11. Talking about Fred's box on the street corner would get you arrested. Please stop.
  12. Someone has to come out of the lineup. You can only put 9 players on the field.
  13. Wilson wants a decent contract on a very good team or he's going to retire per reports. His options are limited.
  14. Dogfight in as such that they are real dogs. I think the back of the 6-8 guys in the bullpen should have been upgraded unless they plan on bringing up the live AAA arms like Early and Tolle.
  15. He had a 416 OPS last year vs LHP. I think he's going to have to be paired with somebody to (a) provide rest for his body and (b) give him a break from tough lefties.
  16. Maybe they sign Justin Wilson? Nothing else really out there via FA.
  17. Is Craig a good enough communicator to do a three team deal? Cubs have Ballesteros at DH and I think they are going to give him a bit of runway at the start of the year. He could have a decent ceiling. I think Shaw is unlikely due to the cost of the trade. Hoerner is more likely, BUT is only for one year. Seems like it's really HOU or nothing so probably nothing at this point. Maybe there is one of those unspoken Breslow deals that we'll be surprised by? I'm not counting on it.
  18. I agree. I wish Mayer could just take over at 3b as an everyday guy, but that's just wishful thinking at this point. He's not ready to hit LHP and his body will push him to the IL sooner than later.
  19. The only team that NEEDS an OFer and has a 2b/3b that the Sox are reportedly interested in is HOU. Haven't heard anyone else mentioned. At this point in the offseason, it'd be a big surprise for a mystery team to be announced. Seems like HOU & BOS aren't matching up for whatever reason.
