Snell? No. Soto? Sure. -
Cora went to the DR earlier this offseason. I assume he met with Raffy while he was there. Raffy has been in camp for a while now. Maybe things are happening we don't know about? Maybe they aren't?
-
Maybe they are taking lessons from the Dodgers!!!
-
Well, we haven't seen Bello as a reliever. Maybe he's a lights out closer!
-
I saw a writer say "some say Bregman might play SS" and I just wanted to close my laptop. On the depth chart, I'd put Bregman at SS behind Story, Mayer, Rafaela, Hamilton, Campbell and Romy.
-
He hasn't signed any LONG TERM deals! Just short term guys! How can we root for these players even they just keep leaving town?!?!?
-
Tax difference between SP and Spotrac is only 6M and it seems to be in player benefits/MiLB pay. My guess it that the same assumptions carry over to TOR payroll tax. What would push them over would be a considerable extension to Crochet that begins this season. The Devers extension began in the following season. If they extend one of Campbell or Anthony, I think that still leaves them behind TOR in the absence of other moves. If they extend both of them, it would likely push them over. They are edging closer to the 2nd CBT and we don't know if they have an appetite to go over that. THEY SHOULD since they have a lot of payroll coming off the books next offseason (50M+).
-
I think they all use different assumptions about player benefits though. If you used the SoxProspects assumptions on player benefits for TOR, their number probably goes up too.
-
I could see him still getting 3/51 in a few years. Would he opt out after this year? Maybe if he has a big year in '25 and believe the lack of a QO will give him a really good deal.
-
SP projected 36M.
-
They are 15-20M lower than TOR according to Spotrac. I'd check Cots, but it doesn't want to load for me.
-
I need to see it in ST before I can predict postseason stuff. I can up my regular season total to 88 wins though.

Bello '23: 1.38 HR/9 Crawford '23: 1.18 HR/9

A playoff run?

A Realistic View of the 2025 Red Sox: Part I
mvp 78 replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Crochet said yesterday that he's leaning towards just pitching this whole season and seeing how it goes. Sox are going to have to really knock him over with an offer. -
All along I've held onto "3 years, 3B only" for Bregman. I'm going to have to hold my nose on him at 2B.
-
If they don't win a WC birth this season, it's a clear failure now.
-
Are the Sox adding more guys we don't know about?
-
7th in CBT according to Spotrac.
-
We already know he'll have a really gad stretch at some point. Pulling him off position midseason will only create unnecessary drama IMO. Just pull the bandaid now.
-
I'm not a huge Bregman guy, but I'm not shocked by the sticker price. It's fine. There are opt outs and it's short term.
-
I'd rather they give a player insane AAV's over a short deal than go long on an older player.
-
It's a terrible plan, but at least it's a short term one. I'd still rather they move Devers off 3B, install Bregman there and add Campbell at 2B. If Story goes down, you can call up Mayer.
-
They are over the first CBT. https://soxprospects.com/payroll.htm
