People got very excited about his 900 OPS early on. He was definitely hitting above his weight. On a short term contract, he's a guy that makes sense. I wouldn't sign him for the reported 5 years he wants.

Perfect Breggie AB -
“Base hit”

REF!!!

For sure
-
Seems to be an easy offseason DFA. Has just not worked out here.
-
Have they even tried swinging in ALL CAPS?
-
If the offense is only going to score 1 run, anyone could sweep this team. Need to start hitting a little.
-
It's just not how they did the hiring. 🫠 Nobody with any experience wanted to go through the hiring process the whole way through for various reasons.

A Realistic View of the 2025 Red Sox: Part II

Asking WAY too much of Story. I think we should be happy that he made it to mid-September without hitting the IL. -

No excuse for that. SoxProspects did exist back then! I remember being excited when Papelbon and Lester were called up. -
Roman has that heavy ground ball profile too. He doesn't have that ceiling, but I wouldn't get too worked up about the ground ball rate just yet.

Sox offense with Devers: 103 wRC+ Sox offense with Anthony: 104 wRC+ Sox offense since Anthony injury: 83 wRC+ This offense needs to be led by a big bat and nobody is able to step up right now. -
What fun is that?

She's qualified. Eddie Romero Jr is qualified (not listed in the article, but did apply for Craig's position). I would have supported either hire before they brought Craig in. I think I'd just like a more senior person brought in to help with the communication aspect of things to help Craig with some of his missteps. Seems like Theo is too busy with overall FSG things to just focus on the Red Sox day to day.

Bregman is an average to below average range guy at 3b. With his injury, it's only been worse this year. Story's range is also way down this year. He'll be 33 soon and it's only going to trend the wrong direction.
-
A few MiLB awards were announced today. No FCL All Stars or notables for the Sox. Justin Gonzales was listed as an All Star for the Carolina League.
-
I wouldn't put money on it. He's been much better on the road than at home.

The 2026 Red Sox Foundation & One Possible Plan

We have no true measure on when decline actually begins for each player. It's just a guess. Decline could have already happened for Duran. Maybe it won't be until age 35? We have no clue. -
Masa 8/5/24 - EOY '24: 832 OPS Masa 4/20/23 - 7/25/25: 942 OPS Previously, he had stretches of productivity each season. We just haven't seen it this year.
-
Internal option would be the worst option. Just a pointless decision.
-
I was counting on a Masa revenge season. 🫠 He's just been really bad this year.
-
Romero's hit tool is fairly questionable. I think he'd be eaten up at MLB. He can punish mistake pitches, but will see less and less of them as he moves up. Want to see a full season of him absolutely mashing at AAA before he gets called up. Think he's better at 3b than 2b.
-
He's writing him off after the prior two years most likely. It's much larger than a 40 game sample if you don't like the guys swing.
-
Campbell, Garcia and Toro are all hitting poorly down the stretch. Nobody is making a run at a late callup.
