    He's been hitting lately. He really tore it up against St Paul, but that team has the 2nd worst ERA in the International League. His HR that got posted all over social media was off a guy with a 7+ ERA and a 90.1 mph 4 seamer. Sox are trying to get him lots of reps at 1b (15 games, 0 errors).

    I think the Sox would not beat the Jays, Tigers, Astros or Mariners in a playoff series. Rangers are on a 10-2 run. There's a good chance they push the Sox out of the playoff position for good by the time the deadline comes anyway. Sox best chance is for the Yankees to free fall. The reason winning pretty matters is because ugly baseball doesn't win in the playoffs. The bad baseball that gets the Sox by during the regular season won't work in October for long.

    I just think we make moves similar to what we saw from Breslow in '24, selling Rule 5 eligible guys. If expectations are Joe Ryan or bust, people will be let down IMO.

    Still selling today? I think they are still stuck in no man's land. They are good enough for that final playoff spot, but not really good enough to do any damage in the playoffs. BUT ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN IN THE PLAYOFFS!!! No. The sixth seed has to run through 4 teams now. This team looked rough against the Cubs/Phillies/Dodgers. It wasn't even pretty during the Dodgers series win. The expectations for a contender have fallen so far that people want to heavily buy for a deeply flawed team.

    Mookie didn’t want any of that

    Deja vu

    Hope Kershaw’s arm breaks off Dave Dravecky style.

    Cease can be very frustrating to watch. I think it would cause at least one of our older posters to die during a gamethread. I agree about Ryan too.

    589 OPS away from Coors this year 664 OPS away from Coors for his career He's been pulling the ball a lot more this year, so may do fairly well at Yankee Stadium down the stretch.

    Going with a name that hasn't been mentioned yet: Sonny Gray (and add Herrera to the trade)

    Barnstorming, clam chowder AND fighting off the Montauk Monster in one offseason? Probably didn't even have time for pole sitting.

    If that's the cost, Breslow isn't making that trade. If he already passed on Cease and Salas, he's passing on Clase.
  15. mvp 78
    Kiké most likely out. Mookie probably out. Aramark concession workers now most likely out for the full series. Will fans be sneaking in food and beverages in the way I did back in the 90's and early 00's? We'll see!

    He injured the same wrist in '22. Maybe it was something that still kind of lingered?
  17. mvp 78
    No MRI update yet.

    Also, they had a uniform advantage. They had fabric the helped them breathe. Cotton is king! Modern players couldn't dream anything could be so soft and fluffy.
  19. mvp 78
    Dodgers are 4-11 in their last 15. Sheehan generates a lot of chase, so his numbers may be a little deceiving. Sox may do worse than the 4+ ERA suggests. Bello has been great at home (648 OPS). Overall since June 1: 2.81 ERA, 3.87 FIP, 7.2 IP per start. Kiké is out with an elbow injury and is most likely missing the series. Mookie may miss tonight's game due to personal reasons.
  20. mvp 78
    The other 65%?
  21. mvp 78
    If we traded Duran for Cease and Abreu in a larger deal for Ryan, we'd have no offense, but the pitching would be: Crochet day Cease day Ryan day Bello day Giolito day It looks great on MLB the Show!
  22. mvp 78
    Sean McAdam of MassLive provides further details on the situation surrounding Duran. He suggests that while a deal involving Duran is “likely” at some point, the Red Sox are inclined to hold off on making such a deal until the offseason. McAdam then goes on to note that the Padres offered Boston a three-player package of right-hander Dylan Cease, top catching prospect Ethan Salas, and an additional prospect not named Leo De Vries that was “quickly rejected.” That’s a fairly significant offer, particularly given the fact that the Red Sox had reportedly expressed interest in Cease previously in conversations with San Diego this summer.
