    If his defense was really good at one of the positions, they probably would have stuck him there.
  2. mvp 78
    Swinging the bat GOOD. Getting on base BAD.
  3. mvp 78
    Yeah, what's the point in getting on base?
  4. mvp 78
    Imagine if they only signed him for 3 years instead of 5... ☺️
  5. mvp 78
    He has MiLB options, but it depends on the wording of his contract. We don't know for sure TBH.

    The last time Campbell pulled a ball was 2024, about the same time Casas was productive.
  7. mvp 78
    But he hit really bad in April 2026 when he always hits poorly! That means he should stink forever going forward. My point with Casas has always been that it depends on how he returns from his injury. If he is not hampered by his injury, he can get back to '23 Casas. If he has an issue with his legs, it could seriously alter his career going forward as it would zap his power. Until we see him in games, it's hard to say what he'll do. Tools wise, I'd take him above a lot of other hitters on this team.

    Yeah, it's not an IL stint. Sorry. He's either healthy enough to play in games or he isn't. Masa played DH in ST then went on IL because he couldn't throw. He came off the IL to go play DH again. It should have been a MLBPA grievance IMO.
  9. mvp 78
    Yeah, they jumped the gun on that extension. I hope it works out in favor of the Sox. If not, good for Kristian.
  10. mvp 78
    If he was playing in games, he would have overstayed his welcome on the IL rehab.
  11. mvp 78
    Yes, Masa.
  12. mvp 78
    It's a bidding war after he clears waivers. If he can't be DFA'd based on his contract and is straight released, then teams could in theory bid against each other. Unlikely! If teams would pay more than the minimum, he would have been dealt.
  13. mvp 78
    Campbell should be better eventually, but he hasn't shown it yet. He needs to actually start hitting in AAA before anyone thinks he can be better than anyone that has shown success at the big league level over a full season like Casas.
  14. mvp 78
    He was fine swinging a bat. They sent him to AAA because he couldn't play OF. Like what???
  15. mvp 78
    Having 4 starting OFers and parking a DH on the bench with Casas rehabbing with no clear path to playing time if he's healthy is bad team building.

    Please tell me I'm not going to have to hear "deathball" as the new hot pitch this year or ever.
  18. mvp 78
    If Masa is DFA'd, he'll either go back to Japan or grab a one year MLB minimum deal to play at his preferred location. No way is he signing a multi-year deal right after being DFA'd.

    Rafaela's first two AB's: 103.5 mph, 102.3 mph Rafaela is batting 2nd. Xander is batting 3rd. Others of note: Ozzie Albies Didi Gregorius Druw Jones
  20. mvp 78
    ST Game? WBC Game? IDK.
  21. mvp 78
    "Someone else will probably already be injured." Now that's some good team building.

    14 of his 20 HR's were hit at launching pads for LHBs: PHI (3), LAD (6), COL (3), NYY (2). Him being able to perform at Fenway was not a given.
  24. mvp 78
    He should stay there if he likes it so much. 😇
  25. mvp 78
    I think the first impressions of him hitting 823 in April are what stuck in many people's minds. My other guess is that some of the writers just really don't pay attention to the prospects. Every national listing that I found (SoxProspects, MLB, FanGraphs, etc.) has Yophery outside the top 30 for the Sox. TalkSox having him at #16 shows a big flaw in our ranking system.
