    I know I have a problem because I know who Seby Zavala and Blake Sabol are and their current deficiencies. I've also looked at Abraham Toro's underlying metrics because I like eating crumbs off the floor. I've participated in posts about Nate F'n Eaton on this forum and had legitimate thoughts about him not just jokes. I remember when they traded for Wyatt Mills two years ago and am looking forward to watching him pitch in AAA this year even though he hasn't thrown a competitive pitch since he came here. I do believe that it's unfair to have Wyatt Mills and Wyatt Olds in the same bullpen. I still believe in Isaiah Campbell and not just his glorious moustache!

    That doesn't mean I want to take on a 3 year contract for a waning player to get a middling catcher. If Breslow really wanted a defensive minded catcher, he has the assets to deal for a young one.

    Ahh, to be killed on the streets by platitudes.

    They had nobody else to play 3B besides Devers before. When they brought in Turner to give Devers a break, he was awful. He was worse than Devers. There just hasn't been a solution, but that's not on Cora to figure out. It's been completely on the designers of the team (Bloom/Breslow). “If they want you to cook the dinner, at least they ought to let you shop for some of the groceries.” - Bill Parcells

    He won the gold glove at 3B, not 2B. That's where he should play if they want to be better defensively. Moving a gold glove fielder off position because you have a very bad defensive player there already is silly season.

    I think his numbers vs RHP won't be as good this year as they were in '24.

    I would have only been bothered by Snell and Adames just because I don't like those two players. The contracts seem fine if someone else wants to take a chance on them though. Sox paid a high AAV premium in order to keep the years low. Seems like a fair tradeoff!

    He has been the 1st percentile in EV over the past two seasons and 4th and 2nd percentiles in Hard Hit% as well. High velo, but low spin rates and doesn't strike many guys out. It's not a 4 seamer that profiles well. It could be scaring off data heavy clubs. He also could be holding out for more money than teams want to pay him? IDK.

    $30M for someone to play a kids game?!?!?!? Are you friggin' kiddin' me dood?
  10. mvp 78
    Maybe they sent it to my old address in MA?
  11. mvp 78
    Seems like more "old school types" are against it to me?
  12. mvp 78
    I think he's a good player. I just want him at 3B rather than 2B so that one of the best Sox prospects we've ever seen has a chance to take over at 2B. I have no problem with the contract at all. Glad it's only for 3 years.
  13. mvp 78
    Kind of steep for what they did to Bill Campbell. They definitely road him hard and put him back wet in '77. I was fortunate enough to live in Boston from 97-07 and mostly within walking distance of Fenway. Being able to get Pedro tickets the day of the game (without a dumb app) was always fun.

    See, we're all over here talking normally and you're over on your own tangent all together trying to make a point that nobody cares about. If you don't want to talk about CBT and its implications fine, but then don't plan on having any sort of adult conversation surrounding the Sox payroll.
  16. mvp 78
    When they don't spend it on payroll, were you getting a discount?
  17. mvp 78
    Masa is going to be dunking on some of these fans like Air Bud this season.

    O'Neill 109 HR 278 RBI Bregman 191 HR 663 RBI Bregman had 75 RBI last season. O'Neill has only had more than that once in his whole career!!!!!!
  19. mvp 78
    You mean methods like the ones the Yankees used in that unsealed letter?
  20. mvp 78
    The CBT number is much more important that the flat contract number that has no implications on how the Sox operate as a business.
  21. mvp 78
    And they were wrong!
  22. mvp 78
    Who cares about the money? Is it yours?
  23. mvp 78
    He couldn't physically play the OF last year because of his shoulder. Seems obvious enough to me.
  24. mvp 78
    O'Neill had more HRs than Bregman did, but Bregman had way more total bases than O'Neill which is more important. He's been much healthier and productive than O'Neill has been, even last year. Also, Bregman has a very low k rate, which this team really needs.
  25. mvp 78
    I'll be at a game in 4 weeks!
