    It became irrelevant when they signed David Price soon after TBH.
  2. mvp 78
    I've already said that Contreras will out fWAR Alonso the next 2 years and I'm more confident about it by the day.
  3. mvp 78
    Must be a clubhouse cancer.
  4. mvp 78
    The Kelly/Sandoval/Crawford (will be on the IL, FYI)/Moran group is less than ideal.
  5. mvp 78
    No, her obvious point is more about players like Aaron Nola playing for Italy because his great-grandparents emigrated to LA from Sicily.
  6. mvp 78
    Or not? IDK

    Contreras: 2 HR, 1563 OPS, great defense, great clubhouse presence Alonso: 2 HR, 961 OPS, bad defense, dullard

    Yup, it's THAT point in the spring where we are all overly high on the Red Sox because we just want baseball to be back.
  9. mvp 78
    Yeah, the Sox didn't want to give up MAYER. That was my point.
  10. mvp 78
    Especially a Paredes + non-26 man roster guy. It'd have to be a top prospect at that point.

    Masa had a 429 OPS as a pinch hitter last year. Not much of a sample size though.
  13. mvp 78
    Taking it easy in April really worked out for them in 2019!
  14. mvp 78
    But what if there are injuries!!! That's what I'm hearing about the reason for keeping Masa. Why worry about the other 5 if one could go down?
  15. mvp 78
    If the Sox were really concerned about Mayer and thought he needed to spend the year in AAA, they would have traded him for Marte.
  16. mvp 78
    It went unaddressed as they added nothing to the bullpen except an underperforming Ryan Watson who may be sent back to whatever team they Rule 5 picked him from.
  17. mvp 78
    If he's healthy, he's better than Masa without question.
  18. mvp 78
    He's playing LF instead of DH because Japan has a better hitter at DH than Masa. Same thing would happen with the Sox if they put Duran/Abreu/Anthony at DH instead of Masa. All those 3 guys are vastly superior at fielding though.
  19. mvp 78
    They are going to keep Early and Tolle down in AAA until they earn the extra year of control.
  20. mvp 78
    Masa backup DH Wong 2nd C IKF backup IF Eaton/Monasterio What a great bench! Really helpful in a late inning scenario.

    An injury or two changes things for any ballclub. An injury to Aaron Judge and the Yankees are a below .500 team.
  23. mvp 78
    Yeah, because in that case Eaton would be playing the OF and you'd one of the other guys DH'ing (Duran). Eaton had a 102 wRC+ and can field all 3 OF positions. Masa can only play a very poor LF and is projected to have a 98-111 wRC+. I'd rather have Eaton on the roster if I'm the manager based on his skillset.
  24. mvp 78
    The back half of the bullpen.
  25. mvp 78
    If they wanted that, they should have done a deal before the Sox started speaking with the Brewers. 🫠 Sox don't really need to be in a hurry now. They have a full IF. They could carry Jarren/Anthony as LF/DH. HOU needs this trade more than the Sox do.
