    0.0 bWAR He could put anyone out there I guess if we're just posting WAR now for argument's sake.

    Did you like the part where Nate Eaton missed that tag at 3b? Good play I guess?

    Will is a bigtime FO homer. He went all in on the culture needing to change once Raffy was out the door. Most of the teammates just said "Raffy was one of 26 guys, we're moving on" and weren't pointing to there being any clubhouse issues. The only people saying there were clubhouse issues are from the FO. Everyone else has said they liked playing with Raffy and that it's just part of the game that people get traded. Duran basically said "what am I supposed to do, cry about it or get up and play baseball the next day?" People in Giants camp have said that the Raffy 1b practice was rescheduled as he's still dealing with groin issues and isn't able to really work out. Everyone just wants to make a big deal about it though, especially a real whiner and blowhard like Will Clark.

    The only 1b to hit 40+ HR since 2017: Alonso, Vlad Jr, Matt Olson. I'm not so sure the Sox are getting one of those three guys. If they wanted Alonso, they would have signed him last offseason.
  5. mvp 78
    The SoxProspect guys said they wouldn't add him to the 40 man as the 3rd catcher, so it must not be good enough anymore for them. His defensive metrics fell off last season per Statcast. 🤔

    People just want to see Mayer and Anthony every game. I get it. They are the future, not the Nate Eatons of the world.

    If it's in the middle of the plate, it's going over the fence. No harm in saying that. 🫠

    Nice to see Ehrhard get the shoutout. Old man Allan Castro has picked it up lately.
  9. mvp 78
    If it only were so easy...
  10. mvp 78
    I heard that he was a little banged up? Maybe I'm just misremembering.
  11. mvp 78
    Zavala isn't good anymore. That's why I wouldn't simply call him up.
  12. mvp 78
    His HR was a 93 mph meatball right down the middle and sitting on a tee. As I posted yesterday, he's not missing those.
  13. mvp 78
    Welcome to TalkSox! Also, I agree!
  14. mvp 78
    Gomber's ERA did NOT go down after last night, that's for sure.

    Duran is so good against LHP that he's no longer POSTING. 💪

    I don't know what Cespedes's value is. He isn't a great fielder, doesn't have a projectable frame and is having a rough season in low A. They'd be better off aiming for a return for Bleis, Tibbs or Gonzales.
  19. mvp 78
    Like swatting flies in here.
  20. mvp 78
    Jarren Duran has a 580 OPS vs LHP this season. Wilyer Abreu has a 678 OPS vs LHP this season. Which one should be the part time player?

    1. I didn't fly off the handle. I was just trying to show you how ridiculous it was for you to blame Cora for how Campbell is being treated. It has NOTHING to do with Cora. He's being handled the same way now as he's been handled since he was drafted. It's on the org. It's on Breslow. You wanted to give cover to Breslow for some reason for it and it just doesn't make sense. 2. I am a Mayer fan. I am a Campbell fan. Both things can be true. Mayer should be the SS. The Sox should find one other position for Campbell and just stick him there rather than shuffling him all over the place. They are doing him a disservice in the way they are handling him. I don't care if they move him to 1b, 2b or LF. They just need to find a plan and stick to it.
  22. mvp 78
    Gomber has been one of the worst pitchers in MLB since 2023 (7th worst fWAR for qualified starters, 5th worst ERA, 2nd highest HR/9). Rockies may sneak out a win in one of these games, but I don't know if it's this one.
  23. mvp 78
    Ok, so you say this, but ultimately agree with me that Anthony is probably best suited for LF. Someone has to get traded. It's most likely either Duran or Abreu. If it's Duran, Anthony goes to LF. If it's Abreu, Anthony goes to RF, which isn't my defensive preference. If you truly believe Anthony has a good arm and is able to play CF, the best alignment would be: Anthony LF - above average potential (Duran is terrible in LF) Rafaela CF - GG potential Abreu RF - GG winner (you don't like him, but it's a fact that he won the GG and has put up great defensive metrics in '24 AND '25) They've spent years trying to work on Duran's defense. They got one good season out of him and now it's back to yuckville. I don't think they should really be messing around with the roster just to try and fix Duran.

    That's how it should be: on merit. Some guys need to spend a long time in AA (Sandlin) working on their stuff. Other guys may just fly through the system.
  25. mvp 78
    And once Refsnyder is gone, that vs LHP number will get worse. Devers had a 146 wRC+ vs LHP. He'll be replaced by someone worse as well.
