    They have a lot of guys that could get nice returns. I wonder how they will approach the idea of buying and selling. My guess is that they do a little of both. If so, Breggie will be here through Sept. More likely that they deal from the OF crunch. Probably keep Chapman too in case they do make a playoff push.

    Woodruff 2/20

    How will we know which of the payroll is allocated from Devers's salary though? Right now, we'd have to deduct Hicks's salary for a few years, but a TON of salary is coming off the books this offseason. There is no way to really parse out what FA acquisition is really taking the place of Devers's salary. They just need to be able to extend their young players and bring in outside help using their financial might the way they did prior to 2019. No more excuse making or season punting. The top prospects are here. This offseason is the time to get everything in place and build a real winner.

    One weakness for the Sox will be relying on guys coming back from injury. Breggie hasn't had in game action in about 45 days. Dobbins is coming off the IL after having extensive plastic surgery performed. Very concerned about a comebacker up the middle.

    This was '22 deadline.

    Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!

    I think at the very least, they'll trade some potential Rule 5 guys to acquire some relief help like they did last season, similar to the Garcia trade last year. Castro Hoppe Jordan Mullins Paez Sandlin Uberstine

    Against a poor hitting AAA team. Color me unimpressed.

    Monegro is injured for the year (TJS). Nobody is trading for him. I don't think anyone is trading for Perales until he's actually pitching in games.

    That's the old BoSox. They've finally started to listen to Pete Fatse.

    Ah, the prospect potpourri!
  12. mvp 78
    Fine.
  13. mvp 78
    It's been fine. I just think we don't know how Devers would produce if he was still here. We don't know how the guys we acquired will produce going forward. It's clear that this trade wasn't about being "won" for Breslow. It was a problem that had to be solved. They didn't believe they could handle it internally, so they traded him. I don't remember tracking Mookie's stats in 2020 though.

    Honestly, trade the entire team except for Anthony and Mayer. It's just laundry anyway. Maybe keep Crochet if you can't get a decent return. 😢

    It took him 26 pitches to get through the 1st inning. Rochester is 19th out 20 teams in the Int'l League in OPS.

    Taj could be the guy the Sox could keep the offense going with. He doesn't generate a lot of whiffs and has a bad 4 seam FB. The three guys after that are tougher matchups for the Sox IMO. As with the other Rays starters, his worst starts have come at HOME. Away: 637 OPS, 4.04 ERA Buehler needs to keep that train rolling.
  17. mvp 78
    Just another clubhouse diva, I guess. 💃
  18. mvp 78
    I'd option Houck to AAA and keep him there until he actually looks good enough to be promoted. He's been really bad.
  19. mvp 78
    There is a ladder he could use! Why hasn't he tried that?
  20. mvp 78
    We've spent way too much brainpower on DRS and OAA the past few years. Until there's something better, they are all we got.
  21. mvp 78
    The Schwarber and Eovaldi deals were completely fine. Nobody was upset at the time. Neither was a top 20 prospect or had that upside. Bolivar is a guy nobody was tracking. Portes was an exciting pitcher, but still years and years away. Portes is still in Low A right now. The buzz around Espinoza was crazy high when he was traded. Using him on Pomeranz was the problem. Should have just got a better arm for him.
  22. mvp 78
    Hicks doesn't have any options. How would they get him to AAA? DFA? That'd be an interesting move.
  23. mvp 78
    The only drawback to OAA is how it treats balls hit to or over OF walls, especially shorter porches. It assumes that Duran can still get to some balls hit onto the Monster for example because it scores everything by trajectory and ignores ballpark architecture.
  24. mvp 78
    Wellington Castillo.
  25. mvp 78
    They are playing well against bad competition, but everyone is going to need AB's going forward. It's up to Cora to juggle it.
