    The goal is to trade the minor leaguers that you don't need or at least the ones that won't work out. Sell high. Keep the good ones. So far, DD has made some good decisions. The only questionable trade is Shaw for Thornburg, but nobody on here worried about the trade at the time.

    http://www.masslive.com/expo/erry-2018/03/a5b1aa9c36/every_red_sox_opening_day_star.html#incart_river_mobile_index Every opening day starter for the Sox since 1908!

    @craigcalcaterra Rusty Staub, Mets, Expos icon, dies at age 73 Rest in Power. One of the Greatest baseball names of all time.

    This has been your daily Peter Abraham Corner. Thank you.

    @PeteAbe Hanley Ramirez has two Opening Day grand slams [2009 for the Marlins, 2015 for the Red Sox]. No player since at least 1913 has had three.
  6. mvp 78
    @PeteAbe Mookie Betts hit Opening Day home runs in each of the last two seasons. He has four career home runs against Rays starter Chris Archer including one leading off the game last July 9.

    The Sox survived with Manny in LF, they could survive with JD out there.

    The worse JBJ hits, the harder it'll be to trade him for anything of value. The better he hits, the harder it'll be to see him go.
  9. mvp 78
    Rubby and Webster weren't very good tho. Might as well trade them then lose them once their options go away.

    NYY symbol is probably the most famous in sports worldwide (excluding soccer).

    My 3 y/o picked out a pink one this winter. I don't have a problem with it. The pink hats are better than the camo ones anyway.

    To me, the biggest impact could be: 2. Players are buying into the aggressiveness The Red Sox had the eighth-most walks in the majors last year but have the ninth-least walks this spring. They were above league-average in homers after ranking last in the league last year. Beyond the numbers, Cora’s philosophy to be more aggressive has anecdotally proven effective for Mookie Betts (.340) and Andrew Benintendi (.386) who have been supportive of the idea. Stylistically, this offense is going to look different than it did a year ago. The offense was a big let down last year. If they can improve on that, it will pay huge dividends. I'm not sure the starting pitching can be better than they were last year.

    Well, there's always someone that complains. I just think the majority of posters will not complain as much if his bat improves from last year. His defense is fine. I'm not sure many people really hound him on that. Complaining about a bad throw in a game thread is totally fine by me.
  15. mvp 78
    Barfield LF, Tavares CF, Castillo RF

    @JMastrodonato Cora says opening day Red Sox lineup to be Betts Benintendi Ramirez Martinez Bogaerts TBD (Devers) TBD (Nunez) JBJ Vazquez
  17. mvp 78
    There is such a huge difference between 15-16 JBJ and 17 JBJ that it's hard to really know what we are getting this year. If 17 was an aberration and he can OPS .800+, no one will complain. Last year was a little disconcerting.
  18. mvp 78
    It was TWO years in a row and one of the seasons was even a half year.
  19. mvp 78
    Harper LF, Beni CF, Mookie RF
  20. mvp 78
    Just Under 26 hours to go!
  21. mvp 78
    bWAR?!?! Get out of here with that nonsense!
  22. mvp 78
    My favorite part was the tidbit about Hanley being the only infielder who was shifting correctly based on the cards they follow.
  23. mvp 78
    He'd be better offensively, but worse defensively. The upside is that you have longer control over him and aren't going to have crazy swings in production like JBJ.
  24. mvp 78
    Beni would be fine in CF if they wanted to add another big bopper to the lineup in LF or DH.
  25. mvp 78
    Yup. He's was the 18th best CFer last year. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=cf&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=200&type=8&season=2017&month=0&season1=2017&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0 Basically Delino Deshields Jr or Carlos Gomez.
