    Like how Bonzo once said "Mr Gorbachev, tear down that wall," Craig Breslow MEND THAT FENCE!

    Bloom - waffled, but ultimately refused to trade Sale knowing that he still had a vintage season or two left in him Breslow - decisively traded Sale for uber prospect Vaughn Grissom Which one wilted in this scenario?
  3. mvp 78
    With his deal, he'll be back before the end of the year. At the latest, it'll be August 1.
  4. mvp 78
    They wanted him on the team regardless of how he played in ST. Seemed obvious that (a) Roman was playing well and should have been promoted, (b) Marcello was playing well but hadn't played any AAA so it made sense to have him start there for a little while and (c ) Campbell was playing poorly and may need a few more weeks in AAA even though he looked great in AAA in '24.

    Eldridge is a horror at 1b. He's probably a LF/DH long term.
  6. mvp 78
    There aren't enough hitters on that team to make you pay to throw him any strikes that Devers can do damage with. I think Gio will know how to do it. Dobbins I'm not sure on. Bello may be in big trouble against him.
  7. mvp 78
    SF is death for power hitters on either side of the plate, unless they are on the cream or clear. This is just for LHB though.
  8. mvp 78
    According to Devers's Statcast: Expected Career HR's at Fenway 203 Expected Career HR's at PacBell/At&t/Oracle/ETC 201 SF won't be great for him, but it wasn't all that hot for him in BOS either (career 223 HR).

    It seems to not be going well then! 🥺

    The one thing that is certain, no matter what feed you put on, it's going to be brutal to listen to. The mute button will be my friend.
  11. mvp 78
    I'm not sure Grissom is the best option for anything going forward. I was hopeful that he'd turn it around, but it's not happening.
  12. mvp 78
    And I kinda miss all the waiver claims.
  13. mvp 78
    Just think of all the CA HS SS's we'd have in the system! 🥰
  14. mvp 78
    Maybe both? Easier to put him at 1b in WOO than in front of the Fenway Faithless. Blaze will still get reps at 3B/DH on days that Campbell is at 1b. Grissom hasn't played 1b since May 23rd so that ship sailed. Grissom can't even hit the ball anymore so probably needs to be dealt to make roster space.
  15. mvp 78
    Jordan Monegro - TJS Mullins Paez Sandlin Three are protected and two are traded (maybe Monegro is left unprotected due to the TJS?). If any of the others are selected, it's not a big concern to me at this point.
  16. mvp 78
    If the Red Sox haven't learned how to pitch around Devers at this point, he deserves to send a few into McCovey Cove. I've never seen Birdsong pitch before, so I don't know how well he'll do at keeping these bats from waking up from their 8 game slide. Looks like lots of whiffs and k's, which isn't a good sign for the BoSox.
  17. mvp 78
    In hindsight, they should have just extended Bloom.
  18. mvp 78
    Campbell is the worst 2B in MLB by DRS. He's one of the worst defenders in MLB period at 312 out of 318 in fielding run value. Why? 7 errors in 59 G is not great. A 968 Fld% is pretty rough for MLB. He has the worst range of any 2b in MLB and an OAA that is 1st percentile. If he has that bad of range at 2b, how would that translate to SS? In just the short time Mayer has spent at 3b, he already has a higher fielding run value than Bregman, largely because of his range. Why did they want to move Campbell to 1b? It had nothing to do with Devers. It had everything with him being awful at 2b.
  19. mvp 78
    He wasn't ever even an assistant GM before. There were communication questions in the interview process. Maybe he can figure it out and learn from the situation? None of us are there and it's hard to get what's really going on with all the PR spin from all sides. I think we know there's a blame pie and that the people that remain in the organization need to do better going forward. Seems simple enough of a statement.
  20. mvp 78
    The Sox haven't really been able to sweep the bad teams. BAL won a series, split a series CHW lost a series, won a series
  21. mvp 78
    I think that's when a more substantial trade could be made. Right now, it'd be for expiring contracts or dealing for prospects.
  22. mvp 78
    They tried trading Casas and Masa last offseason and couldn't pull the trigger. Now that they've been injured, how are they going to get those deals done? Seems like they'll be stuck with both for a while unless they are eating a substantial portion of Masa's deal and take pennies on the dollar for Casas.
  23. mvp 78
    It'll be nice to have the SF series behind us. That's all I'm going to say! Almost better that we're hit with it now and can move on.
  24. mvp 78
    I was all on board with a Masa revenge tour this offseason. Who am I to say?!?!
  25. mvp 78
    Uh, we don't know that yet.
