    The author is a clickbait king. Here's his trade from two weeks ago sending Casas to SEA: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/boston-red-sox/news/red-sox-blockbuster-trade-pitch-would-swap-triston-casas-starting-pitcher/fc24d570e5dddbae9a4a7e77 Here's a trade of Masa to the Royals: https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/red-sox-could-cut-ties-with-90-million-slugger-to-add-depth-in-trade-with-royals/ar-AA1CUNAX He's also traded Arias & Jhostynxon to the Cardinals for Helsley: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/boston-red-sox/news/red-sox-trade-pitch-would-bring-81-million-all-star-boston/f86e999a0a4b394c87c4fee8

    I don't have the appropriate site safe reaction for this, kimmi... There's still 89% of the season to play and I'm going to do my best to be patient until Memorial Day. I'm fine with Cora moving around the lineup for struggling hitters and mixing and matching bullpen guys. At this point, firing a coach isn't going to fix anything. It's just going to punt the season. Hard to do an in season trade this early and the players you'd want to move are vastly underperforming. Why sell Masa, Casas, etc. at their lowest value? I think we just have to hope for a turnaround from internal options.

    It'll be tonight because I will be unable to watch. 🫣

    Joe Torre had almost 60 WAR. Tris Speaker won 90 games twice. Joe Cronin had a good managing career.

    It ain't no slider anymore.

    Hurt his knee early last season and pitched through it. It didn't get better in the offseason. They are rehabbing now. Crawford injured himself covering first base at Fenway Park on April 10 against the Orioles. “My third start of the season, I covered first base and as soon as I hit the base, something happened,” Crawford said. “I just couldn't put a whole lot of weight on it. As you could tell, my velo was declining a little bit.” Crawford was confident a full winter of rest and rehab would cure what ailed him, but he had a setback in the offseason. “Yeah, it's something that I kind of dealt with last year, I just kind of flew through it,” said Crawford. “I did something [to it] this offseason. I had a couple hiccups within the rehab progression of it all. I’m just a little behind. The strength just isn't there where we want it to be. And, yeah, just a little behind, kind of taking it day by day.”

    Also, that dirty rat Pythagoras has the Sox at 8-10 rather than their actual record of 8-10.

    Sox are 1-3 in blowouts according to bref. Feels like it so far.

    Gio is starting tonight vs the Yard Goats FWIW
  11. mvp 78
    Agreed, through age 27, Raffy was better.
  12. mvp 78
    It's a lot of pen lefties, but for a long reliever it doesn't matter to me.
  13. mvp 78
    He has the same approach that worked for Papi.
  14. mvp 78
    I don't know what PeteAbe wants Tanner to throw. His horrible 4 seamer (opponents 1.000 SLG, 625 wOBA)? His splitter is really thrown mainly against lefties. Change his sweeper back to a slider with less horizontal break?

    I don't want to read too much into the Netflix doc, but the two biggest "personalities" are really slumping at the start of this year. Get Matt Young's sports psychologist on line 1!

    K rate 2024 Pre-injury: 28% Post-injury: 33% He definitely was worse after coming back at the end of the year and is really spiraling right now. Maybe he can pull himself out of it. He has always been seen as a "professional hitter" but I think it's time for him to show it, Mr 39% Called Third Strike. It's funny because he's swinging at more pitches than ever (especially 1st pitch), but has worse contact %. His looking strikes are WAY down, but he's somehow keeping an obscenely high k rate of which 39% are without a swing. How is he swinging at more strikes, whiffing more, having less called strikes, but taking the same % of called third strikes. Bizarre. He's only patient when there's two strikes now? WTH?

    Starting pitcher going against WOO tonight: 5.68 ERA, 2.05 WHIP Roman is going to go YARD in his first AB.
  19. mvp 78
    He has been getting starts at 1b too. Not sure how many off the top of my head. (2)
  20. mvp 78
    It's because they kept adding Masa to the trade. They should have just moved Devers to 1b and left Masa at DH.
  21. mvp 78
    Casas sets up in the box to do just that, but ends up watching strike 3 go by him all the friggin time.
  22. mvp 78
    Oh look, I was saying the same nonsense last fall.
  23. mvp 78
    Since this game is being played in THE FREE STATE OF FLORIDA, this thread is possibly for May 1 since our 1040's aren't due until then because we got an extension due to hurricanes. 🌴🌞🐊🦈🪳🦟🍊🍹⛳🎣

    Like I've said previously, it's roster construction. 2024 guys with over 100 PA and over 25% k rate: TON, Casas, Story, Abreu, Romy, Rafaela, Refsnyder, Hamilton 2025 guys over 25% k rate: Sabol, Devers, Hamilton, Story, Refsnyder, Casas, Wong
  25. mvp 78
    The offense was bad prior to that guy being hired, Bell.
