  1. Toro's OPS last 20 games (since 6/13): 602
  2. He's 37, no reason to extend him. They should absolutely trade him to a legitimate contender as late innings guys bring back a lot of value at the deadline.
  3. I don't care about sneaking into the playoffs this year. It'd be dumb to move Garcia to do so. I'm fine with moving the other 4.
  4. Not Sandlin AND Tolle. Duran, Sandlin and Mullins. I'm not looking to trade Tolle, a guy with tons of helium right now.
  5. Not good enough to be traded though.
  6. I don't think this team is better than they've played. I don't think they should put Duran and his popgun arm in RF. Rafaela should stay in CF as his defensive value would be minimized whenever playing away from Fenway. Campbell was the worst defensive player in MLB while he was here by some measures. They've put him at 1b because he was not good at 2b. If he was as good at MIF as you think he is, they wouldn't be playing him at 1b or OF. You are definitely on an island for your beliefs on his defense. Maybe he can turn it around.
  7. It’s a holiday, people have better things to do than post.
  8. The only reason Campbell played SS in AAA last season was because Mayer got hurt. Campbell isn’t seen as the #1 SS in this org. Agreed that it has nothing to do with Cora.
  9. He’s not Pedroia. He’s not ‘22 Story. I just don’t see him as a plus 2b. No way.
  10. The Sox need like 6 new startersthis year to be a playoff team. Mayer, Anthony, Campbell and others may get there someday but aren’t there yet. Just trade the expiring deals and stock up for future years.
  11. So he didn’t trade Devers and Beni? Wow! Casas was just drafted and wouldn’t be likely traded. The others weren’t considered very highly at the time. Chavis was the Sox #1 prospect in a bad system. Not sure he had much trade value. Is the argument that he didn’t completely clear out the system? I mean, yeah he didn’t trade 150 prospects…
  12. Then they could get something of value for the aging Refsnyder.
  13. Any team near .500 is technically in the race considering how many teams get in now. Just doesn’t seem like a team that would really do damage in the playoffs if they got there. Why sell off future assets then?
  14. Anthony hasn’t demonstrated plus defense at the MLB level yet. Seems like a lot of lazy plays. Maybe LF only going forward?
  15. The A’s aren’t going to make that trade. I don’t see Cora sitting Story this season. If Campbell comes back, it’s likely in an ugly UTIL role as before as he doesn’t have a defensive home. They aren’t moving Rafaela off CF. I think I’m maybe just repeating what everyone else has said. Not trying to pile on though.
  16. fWAR -0.4 bWAR 0.3 At the ASB, that’s good enough to drop David Hamilton IMO regardless of his 7 DRS/1 OAA questions. Narvaez and Rafaela are standout defenders. Easy to see. Hamilton? No.
  17. I also don’t find defensive metrics infallible. Whenever Imm watching Hamilton, he looks mediocre out there. I’ve seen enough botched plays and shaky defense that he doesn’t look like a plus defender to me.
  18. When the relievers pitch well, it’s on the relievers. When the relievers pitch poorly, it’s bad bullpen management from Cora. Duh.
  19. I’d dump, Toro, Romy and Ref on anyone who needed them at the deadline. They are not long for this team. A RHB that can only hit LHP isn’t hard to find. Toro (LHB) just isn’t that good TBH and I’d take a low level prospect for him. All three are older too.
  20. For a .500 team I wouldn’t.
  21. How is that the Giants fault?
  22. I was going on the ferry and had spotty service. Was waiting it out to see if someone else could get it up.
