    Breslow just struggles with the media. Always says something that people can come back to. His post Devers press conference was a mess. Saying anything specific about what they are going to acquire this offseason is just dumb. It's why you just say "we're going to go out and acquire the best players we can so that we can field a team that can be competitive for the playoffs." It's a statement that means nothing.
  2. mvp 78
    Makes a lot of sense that Breslow took the third fork in the road that wasn't mentioned in every freaking MLB Trade Rumors article for a month. A quiet Durbin or Neto deal is more in line with how Breslow has handled business than the out in the open Hoerner/Shaw and Paredes deals that we've been talking about for a while now.

    Not a "small market" but a "small wallet" team? The market is huge, the wallet is always empty for some reason? Wonder where that money is?!?!?
  4. mvp 78
    I think he'll have an increase in wall ball doubles due to his pull air %. Maybe not a huge increase in HR's or anything, but I'd expect him to get closer to 40 doubles this year.

    Sox have added enough guys with catching experience than I'm not worried what happens with Gasper or Seigler TBH. I think Gasper is a great AAA culture guy, but really wouldn't want him in BOS too long. If I had to rank the IFers on the 40 man, I'd have to do it in tiers. Story/Mayer/Durbin/Conteras KC/IKF/Casas Monasterio/Romy/Eaton Sogard/Seigler/Gasper Cheng KC - transitions to OF fulltime Casas - transitions to DH fulltime Seigler/Gasper/Cheng are moved off the roster at some point. Maybe Sogard instead of Seigler.

    Kutter can actually pitch again.

    Which small market team are we taking about? Is it in the same room as us?
  10. mvp 78
    Seigler can catch, but he's mainly an IFer now. Gasper has continued to catch much more than Seigler has. Seigler will probably turn his mitt in at some point.

    I already said the pen should be: Chapman Slaten/Whitlock Tolle/Weissert/Wilson Crawford/Watson I think Sandoval gets dealt at some point. Kelly can hang out in AAA. Moran can be DFA'd.
  12. mvp 78
    If Narvaez is similar to last season and Wong can just be 0.0 fWAR, they should be closer to 15th instead of 26th.
  13. mvp 78
    Castellanos was dreadful last season. I wouldn't even want him taking platoon AB's away from Casas vs LHP.
  14. mvp 78
    Kelly has always been an up and down guy. He's a completely DFA'able. Samaniego has never pitched above AA. Why would we project him onto the BOS roster before the ASB?
  15. mvp 78
    DFA Moran, it doesn't matter. With 8 bullpen arms, it's easier than ever to fit a guy like Watson onto a staff. Not a big deal to carry him at all.
  16. mvp 78
    I was just propositioning what the best defense would be on a certain day. If Romy was in, they'd have to move Story back over to SS I guess? This is probably why it's easier to go: Durbin 3b Story SS Mayer 2b However, I think it's not a big deal if Durbin is at 3b vs LHP (Romy at 2b) and 2b vs RHP (Mayer at 3b).
  17. mvp 78
    I just tend to trust SP more because they are hyper focused on the Sox and pay attention to them everyday whereas other sources have a more generalized knowledge and only see a series or two throughout the year. Like the last SP podcast with Geoff Pontes who is still high on Allan Castro because he sees the one or two good games the guy has every year and missed the IL stints that SP sees.

    MLB Daddy Ball.

    Talking to your players is hard!
  20. mvp 78
    That's fine because Neto has no problem striking out either.
  21. mvp 78
    Altars? Let's get a few WS first. I was thinking Craig extends Durbin at some point because everyone gets one.
  22. mvp 78
    Mayer is more comfy at 3b than 2b. Durbin came up through MiLB as a 2b. Cora doesn't want to ruffle Story's feathers.
  23. mvp 78
    Neto would be a fun watch at Fenway (RH pull power), but this lineup really needs some guys who aren't above a 25% k rate. Neto's glove is probably a better fit for 2b than SS. If the bar was truly high from the Angels, it's a pass from me.
  24. mvp 78
    IKF is a backup that plays great defense and is a good clubhouse guy. Sounds like a good fit for this roster.
  25. mvp 78
    If Durbin's arm is healthy, the best defense would be: Story 2b Mayer SS Durbin 3b I don't think we're going to get that though.
