    The players that chase more than Rafaela:
  3. mvp 78
    Rafaela: 70.6 strike%, 58.9 pitches swung at%, 48.9 1st pitch swing% Leads BOS and NYY for all batters above 50 PA. He's just up there swinging. He's not a high k rate guy, he's a high volume swing guy, which causes him to chase pitches outside the zone more than almost everyone else in baseball (2nd percentile). Since he chases bad pitches, he's induces into a lot of weak contact. If he gets his pitch, it can go a long way.

    Kelly has much higher upside and has seemed to pitch well lately. I know he's a rollercoaster, but he had some great performances last season against the Yankees.
  5. mvp 78
    Murphy wouldn't be available again until WS. Not a guy who is going to swing a playoff series TBH.
  6. mvp 78
    '23 was his best season when the strike out looking % was down to 27%. All other seasons were 10 points higher. If he wants to be productive, he needs to keep that rate down.
  7. mvp 78
    The problem with Casas is that he is his inability to protect the plate or be aggressive with 2 strikes. He carried a 37% strike out looking, when league average is 23.5%. Other Sox hitters above 30 were Campbell, Sogard, Eaton and Sabol (not exactly a wrecking crew). His overall strike looking % was only 21.2% which means he was more likely to watch a called third strike than any other pitch.

    Local viewership was up 44% this year for the Red Sox per the Sports Business Journal.

    He practiced on the field yesterday with the team. Don't know how limited he was/is.
  11. mvp 78
    You got the wrong ballpark for Casas if this is the target. Fenway is 24th for LHB HR's. Worse than SD and SEA. It's a park made for 2b's. Head and shoulders #1 for LHB.
  12. mvp 78
    799 OPS. Lots of damage off FB's below 92 mph and nothing faster. 🫠
  13. mvp 78
    4th in hits and BA. #1 in 2b's.
  14. mvp 78
    In fact, he did NOT hit well.
  15. mvp 78
    Early pitched on Saturday, so Thursday would be normal rest. He's been sharper than Harrison overall. Who knows what direction they'd go.
  16. mvp 78
    What would you prefer?

    In terms of who is healthy: Harrison and Early are the only guys left

    Red Sox were 10th in attendance this season and up 1,439 per game over '24. Best season since '19.
  21. mvp 78
    Sox went 9-4 against NYY this year and 4-2 @ NYY. Sox went 2-1 vs Fried and 2-1 vs Rodon.
  22. mvp 78
    My guesses Bernie, Hicks, Guerrero, Crawford, Anthony, Mayer: ready for ST Fitts: MiLB ready on AAA Opening Day Casas: appears in ST, but not in games, MiLB return late May/early June Dobbins: MiLB return late '26 Houck: out until '27
  23. mvp 78
    Happy Bday to Sox legends: Rob Deer, Tyler Thornburg, David Hamilton, Joe Hudson, Calvin Pickering and Joe Thurston,

    A zombie in a 53 year old's body that has been decaying for another 53 years. That's like a midlife crisis zombie, I think. Still has lots of brains left to go eat.

    These predictions weren't so hot, except for the rotation and Mayer ones. Those were basically layups.
