    Sox fan erasure??? I would never.

    Just to be a little doom and gloom. I like the focus on arms in the org. However, there has been a huge uptick in TJS and other injuries just this season. This is probably due to the pressure of adding velo by the org. We've also seen two of the three highly prized prospects get pushed too quickly to MLB and not have a great first run. The offensive talent behind the big three is really mediocre to poor. Is this really a sustainable model? If not, they better win one in the next 3-4 years.

    It's the equivalent of clapping for Tinkerbell.

    But why worry about Rafaela hitting at his expected level and not complain about the "many other guys falling off a cliff" instead? I don't think many of us projected Rafaela to be a 100 OPS+ guy. The posters who saw him as a 800 OPS guy when he was running hot pre-ASB and were saying "Mookie who?" were fooling themselves.

    The Sox averaged 35,994 every game as recently as 2019. They just have to have a good product on the field.

    Yinzers... (said pejoratively)

    Needs to win something first.

    Romy has a 614 OPS since 7/13, 529 the last 13 G.

    For sure because progression isn't always linear. Jose Bautista 04-09: 2038 PA, 59 HR, 729 OPS Jose Bautista 10-15: 3604 PA, 227 HR, 945 OPS JD Martinez 11-13: 975 PA, 24 HR, 687 OPS JD Martinez 14-19: 3449 PA, 207 HR, 954 OPS

    The Pirates have one of the nicest stadiums in MLB and that ownership group is one of the top 3 worst in the game.
  11. mvp 78
    600 just sounds like a full season's worth of AB's?
  12. mvp 78
    A big market team like the Sox should be able to eat a bad contract for one year.
  13. mvp 78
    I hope he reaches every escalator. It would mean he's one of the best players in the game and taking home MVP's. • $1M if earns 1st-2nd Place for ROY in 2025 • $2M for each MVP 1st in any previous year • $1M for each MVP 2nd-3rd in any previous year • $750K for each MVP 4th-5th in any previous year • $500K for each MVP 6th-10th in any previous year • $200K for each All-Star Election/Selection in any previous year

    4th in MLB in runs all season. 4th in MLB since July 1. 11th since August 1. The runs have fallen a little bit, but the pitching has held up by being 2nd in ERA since August 1. This team continues to march on. Not going to nitpick when it looks more and more likely that they are headed for October.
  15. mvp 78
    No more Rafaela at 2b pleez. Just platoon Romy and Hamilton.

    This is a pretty strong defensive lineup.
  18. mvp 78
    The Pohlads decided they didn't want to sell after all and are keeping the team even though they had a fire sale to make the team easier to sell. 🫠 The noted debt was incurred beginning with Target Field's construction through present with bad real estate investments.
  19. mvp 78
    Not horrible, but not great when tied to a 50M contract.
  20. mvp 78
    I think it has more to do with his overall unexciting performance in '25 that includes his AAA season as well. For example, Jackson Holliday went back to AAA last season, but put up numbers and had good underlying metrics. That probably didn't affect his value at all. What Campbell is doing this season definitely affects his value negatively (mediocre performance, bad metrics).

    The Sox will be in the final game of the second series of the year by the time April comes around. Is Cincinnati a nice place to be outdoors the middle of March?
  22. mvp 78
    Zack Kelly!
  23. mvp 78
    I think people aren't saying the Sox need someone after Crochet, but a pitcher that is a #2 type (i.e. top 50 starter) that can fit alongside Crochet and Bello going forward. Pitching wins championships, right?
  24. mvp 78
    His swing is still ugly as hell and he can't play a lick of defense. AAA stats '24 EV 88.2, 46.2 Hard Hit %, 21.2 k%, 15.3 bb% '25 EV 84.0, 28.1 Hard Hit %, 26.9 k%, 12.6 bb% He still has some value, but a lot of his game is trending in the wrong direction this season.

    It shouldn't have been that much of a surprise. Moving Buehler was announced by Cora prior to the game on Friday night. They talked about it on the broadcast and it was posted on here.
