  1. I think he's ultimately more valuable to the Red Sox which is why they haven't traded him. It's more likely that he's still here on 4/1 than elsewhere. It's not a perfect fit for the roster, but it's really a Masa problem not a Duran problem when it comes down to it.
  2. Bichette has had some pretty bad seasons at SS. I'm not sure he necessarily becomes a good defender by transitioning to 2B.
  3. I think the lineup can work itself out over time. I think having positional holes is a bigger problem. Specifically worrying about "who is the #2 hitter" just seems silly at this point. I don't think lineups really need to work that way. Go out and acquire someone that is an average to above fielder at 2b or 3b, preferably a RHB.
  4. I think they can deal Sandoval considering all their offseason acquisitions. I'd do it for a low level DSL prospect as a straight salary dump. I think that's not a "them being cheap" move, but a move to give them flexibility to complete their roster now and at the deadline since they are stuck with Masa and Hicks. I think they would like to deal Duran, but haven't found someone to meet their asking price. BOS is probably better off with Duran or just dealing him for prospects.
  5. I'd smash that button on a Harrison deal for sure. I think the Sox would have to add Sandlin or someone to it, which I'd rather do that a one for one of Tolle/Early.
  6. I'd be surprised if Suarez is trending UP at his age TBH. If Gray wasn't trending down at age 36, it'd be kind of a socker.
  7. Likely there could be multiple deals coming. Sandoval - free up salary Duran - deal for prospects Prospects - acquire 2b
  8. Young, controllable pitcher on a cheap deal who is relatively healthy and puts up decent numbers every year. Some orgs will want that considering what that arm would cost in FA.
  9. You can't post on here "almost everyone knows he won't spend every season" in one post and then try to talk down on other posters who thought they may not spend on the team in another post. C'mon man. There is no reason he ever needs to spend less later except for being cheap. This isn't a mid market team.
  10. Bichette has a terrible glove and not much power. He just doesn't seem like a good fit TBH. If a player has a poor glove, at least give me some pop.
  11. And now they need to spend close to the 3rd threshold. It's just money at this point.
  12. Weren't you the guy crowing about "they haven't signed a long term deal since David Price?"
  13. Nico would be great, but I'm not giving up Tolle or Early for him. Would Craig?
  14. Why load up on good pitching and get bad defenders?
  15. Nothing special is light years better than Eugenio Suarez.
  16. Seems like he's much more eager to deal and spend on pitching than position players. This kind of came out of nowhere.
  17. Then I guess the Sox haven't committed to spending! Time to crow some more!
  18. Vientos is least likely because he's a terrible defender.
  19. Harrison, Campbell AND Bennett? That's crazy for only 4 WAR.
  20. I have more faith in Story playing 150 games TBH.
  21. Like trade for Hoerner, but it's Jake Bennett instead of Early/Tolle.
  22. Is it as big as David Price's deal that you keep harping about?
