    Duran's defense is only wasted if he's sitting at DH.
  2. mvp 78
    Contreras really is the 4th C. He should only be emergency depth at best.
  3. mvp 78
    People keep wanting to throw him to CF because he was "wasted" but he's kind of not wasted it seems?
  4. mvp 78
    Any team 100M under the CBT should be up for sale.

    "Would almost certainly result in a bad contract." Like the Masa and Hicks contracts? If you're going to sign a bad contract, at least get one that will provide value for a few years. Part of having financial might is being able to eat some money once in a while. JH doesn't have that appetite though.

    Romy was DFA'd by the worst team in the history of MLB.
  8. mvp 78
    He's kinda set up here to do a 50/50 split at 2b with Romy if the Sox wiff on signing anyone.
  9. mvp 78
    Duran was 3rd in MLB in LF with 11 DRS. Not sure that can be considered a dumpster fire.
  10. mvp 78
    Ceddanne Rafaela.

    I don't have a problem with the defensive metrics and get why OAA and DRS don't match. I just don't necessarily agree with how they have determined defense factors into WAR.
  12. mvp 78
    111 wRC+, 4 DRS in '25 If he can approximate that going forward, he'll have a spot somewhere.
  13. mvp 78
    Casas is the only guy 25 or younger in the bottom 20 in sprint speed.
  14. mvp 78
    We got a quote from Cora about Story, but just hearsay about Mayer. I couldn't find anything more than "Red Sox would be fine with Mayer at 3b," "prefer him at 3b over 3b" and "are expecting to have Mayer replace Bregman at 3b" are "looking for options at 2b." This doesn't necessarily rule out them moving him over. Why can't they move the guy who Cora once called the best 2b in the AL over to that position? It would be "a tough move" to shift Story off of SS as his bad defense down the stretch was due to "a long season."

    Earth to Craig!!!
  16. mvp 78
    Wong had a significant shoulder injury prior to '25, so it's not surprising his throwing metrics fell off. It was surprising that he became a net zero framer somehow. In previous seasons, his poor framing tanked his defense (2nd percentile '24, 11th percentile '23). I don't think the elite pop time and CS% from '23 will ever come back.
  17. mvp 78
    I think the easiest answer is that Craig is going to wheel and deal guys off the 40 man rather than DFA.
  18. mvp 78
    There are still stars available: Walker Buehler Gary Sanchez Jason Heyward Nestor Cortes Michael Conforto Tony Gonsolin David Robertson Craig Kimbrel Marcus Stroman DJ LeMahieu Carlos Santana Max Scherzer Is Craig dumb? Doesn't he want to win? These guys are All Stars. Some are MVP and CY candidates. WTH?
  19. mvp 78
    He wouldn't show much power here and doesn't help the goal of reducing k%. The roster could make more sense though. IDK.
  20. mvp 78
    That Manaea contract is yucky. I know certain posters on here wanted the Sox to sign him, but ewwwww.
  21. mvp 78
    Holding onto Wong as a 3rd Catcher is more important than holding onto Sogard.
  22. mvp 78
    Wong still has 1 option left.
  23. mvp 78
    Murphy is currently rehabbing his hip, so IDK if he's a great guy to make a run for right now.
  24. mvp 78
    It will depend on who is at 2b.
  25. mvp 78
    Without Rafaela's power potential, that free swinging approach, doesn't pay the dividends as you climb the ladder. He's also not super fast.
