    Maybe they should have kept Devers?
  2. mvp 78
    And we were told that the defense would be better now that Story and Breggie would be together. 🤔
  3. mvp 78
    3 of the top 7 highest error totals in the past 3 years. Not good!

    Even if Giolito was healthy and Bello pitched a great game, they still lose because of a lack of offense and defensive miscues. Saying "they were outgunned because Gio was out" doesn't make sense. They didn't lose because of their pitching. "But they were playing backups!" Nate Eaton had a 1100 OPS in the series. Sogard went 833. The problem was the starters (Duran, Abreu, Rafaela, Romy, Lowe, Narvaez). The backups and the pitching were ok. It was the defense and the hitting IMO.

    Yeah, they don't need more OFers right now. They will have a puzzle to fill at 3b/2b/1b/DH with a combination of inside and outside options. That's where the upgrades are desperately needed.

    DD not making "the right offer?" What world do you live in?

    I said all year that due to the high number of errors and bad baseball IQ that this team showed, that they didn't exhibit "playoff baseball." Once they got to the playoffs, those mistakes became magnified and they are now the reason the Sox are out of the playoffs. Having good defensive metrics is all well and good, but playing smart baseball is just as important IMO.
  9. mvp 78
    Defensive metrics like him a lot.
  10. mvp 78
    79-83 Wait until ‘27.
  11. mvp 78
    I didn’t think that about Breggie.
  12. mvp 78
    Could
  13. mvp 78
    Switch could to will. He has a MLB contract and won't be spending the whole season in AAA next year. He's also TERRIBLE at 2b.
  14. mvp 78
    I wasn't interested in Hoskins until I saw that. I think his swing profile would just pop at Fenway.
  15. mvp 78
    They moved Campbell off 1b fulltime, so it must not be a long term fit for him. I just don't have faith that Casas will be ready to go early on next year or at any point.
  16. mvp 78
    Moving Yoshida helps clear up some of the issues this roster has? Maybe an offseason helps Hicks? IDK.
  17. mvp 78
    Top 10 AAV SP contracts from last season: Burnes 0.7 fWAR (11 starts) Snell 1.9 fWAR (11 starts) Fried 4.8 fWAR Eovaldi 3.7 fWAR (22 starts) Flaherty 2.5 fWAR Severino 2.5 fWAR Manaea 0.4 fWAR (12 starts) Martinez 2.1 fWAR (24 starts) Buehler -0.3 fWAR Kikuchi 2.5 fWAR One contract really worked out, a few were good to decent and 4 that leave something to be desired (though Snell is at least pitching in the postseason).
  18. mvp 78
    Some managers would be into it.
  19. mvp 78
    My guess is that they are stuck with those two contracts unless they are willing to DFA or eat a lot of the $$$.
  20. mvp 78
    Big opportunity to figure out offense for '26 at 1B/2B/DH. 3B will be most likely handled in house.
  21. mvp 78
    Tolle had one exceptional pitch and his rise was meteoric. Witherspoon doesn't have that one plus plus pitch to lean on so we wouldn't see him until '27 IMO. He may have a higher ceiling than Tolle, but Sox won't rush him to the bigs IMO.
  22. mvp 78
    1. Yes, but ATL says no 2. No
  23. mvp 78
    Jarren Duran would never.
  24. mvp 78
    There will always be bad signings. Can't worry about not every FA signing working out.
