    Could be a nice Franklin Park Zoo tie in though... https://www.boston.com/news/wickedpedia/2023/09/20/history-abandoned-bear-cages-franklin-park-boston-ma/

    Alonso doesn't fill a current hole if the hole is 2b/ss/3b.

    Sox BA is 254. Sox have a 253 BA with RISP. All I said was they need to make the Gil pay if he walks a lot of guys. Series is important and Sox need all the runs they can get. 🫠

    You were at the bad place. I can't speak to your actions there.

    Gil gave up a bunch of bb's last time out and Sox didn't make him pay. Can't let the Yanks off the hook this time.

    Everyone on here lost there minds about the potential of NOT getting AGon once the trade rumors started. There was something about AGon getting on a plane or not getting on a plane and posters absolutely freaking out. When the deal was done, I don't remember a single person being upset about the price they paid. People thought AGon would hit 40 HR's at Fenway with his swing. It ended up being more of a doubles swing instead.

    I don't know if Romero's hit tool will be good enough to be playable at MLB. He may need another full year in AAA for a true breakout. Health is also a concern for him.
  11. mvp 78
    Fine with any and all of those ideas.

    No different than penciling in Suarez AND Alonso. 0% chance that happens.

    Mayer would be injured when you needed the callup.

    The 1927 Yankees: Mark Koenig: 123 G, 83 OPS+, batted 2nd! Joe Dugan: 112 G, 78 OPS+, batted 7th How'd that team win anything?

    I don't care what pleases everyone, just what pleases me.

    I've met plenty of nice Cubs fans. I've met plenty of nice Cards fans. Just don't mention the rival team accidentally or they turn into absolute gremlins.

    The new baseball playoffs are crap. They should go back to either the one Wild Card team (94-11) or the Wild Card Game (12-21). I don't remember the Wild Card Game lasting that long TBH. Probably because the Sox were rarely in it.

    1. I think they've added so many young pitchers at the end of this season that there's a chance they don't add anyone else. If they protect anyone, it's Sandlin, not Mullins IMO. 2. Perales has to be an MLB option as it's his last option year. Need to see what he can bring. 3. Two of the three start in GRE (prob Witherspoon and Eyanson). I think mid to late season promotions seem likely if all goes well. 4. SP looks right. I think they continue to develop Sandlin as a starter, but maybe start to treat him as a bulk guy because he throws too many pitches. 5. Dobbins and Early with Tolle in the pen as he works on his secondaries 6. Campbell and Garcia 7. Cannot predict now

    We all know what changed, he got injured and hasn't been the same since. Prior to being scratched for rib discomfort: 902 OPS 4/30 After being scratched for rib discomfort: 465 OPS 5/4-6/18, plus AAA numbers and metrics that are down from '24 He was playing great up until the injury. He needs an offseason more than almost anyone else.
  21. mvp 78
    Trying to turn him into a super sub was an "interesting" decision to say the least. It's not the route I would have gone. If you think he has a chance at 2b, you leave him there for a few years. If you think he's better off in the OF, just put him out there. This is a case where the org's value of versatility has hurt a player's development. They also admitted that Kristian was rushed and skipped some developmental steps along the way. If so, shame on them TBH.
  22. mvp 78
    The last time he played it was for Lowell. It must have been pretty rough if they never tried moving him back to the IF because there were A LOT of growing pains in the OF with him.

    It's something an older AM radio guy in the Boston area would do when talking about sports back in the day. When assigning blame, he'd call it "the blame pie."

    "Coruh, go out there and tell 'em Breggie's cooked and can't go in the playoffs. That way we gots leverage in the negotiations, see..."
  25. mvp 78
    If I was factoring out the blame pie, Anthony would definitely get the largest piece with Breggie getting a decent sized slice as a top of the order bat. Duran has been ok, but not a lightning bolt. Abreu goes through long cold streaks anyway so it's not a huge miss IMO. Bottom of the order really doesn't register to me. I was only annoyed by Wong early on because I thought of him as a bad glove guy. Since his glove has been better, I can overlook the bad offense.
