  1. Crawford is controlled through '28, why extend him? You could make a case to extend Houck, but he's already in his 29 season and controlled for 3 years. No chance to they extend Slaten they way they did with Whitlock. Relief arms are too fungible and Slaten only has a partial year of success at the moment. Imagine if they extended Josh Taylor...
  2. If Devers is out, it won't matter if Bregman is already on the team. The Sox will be cooked if Devers misses any significant time or is still struggling with his shoulder.
  3. Less than 10%
  4. I mean, there's no reason to add Eaton until he actually needs to be up with the Sox. He spent all of last season in AAA. Why would they add Sikes who only has 3 games above AA? It would be weird to 60 man a bunch of pitchers and replace them with hitters anyway. Fulmer seems more likely. Maybe Isaiah Campbell too.
  5. A LHP has never struck him out since he became a pro.
  6. It's an MiLB deal at 1.5M. It's not an astounding amount of $ to keep in WOO. They said they want to stretch him out. If so, he may be in WOO for a little bit.
  7. If King is available from the Pads, as per reports, shouldn't the Sox try to get him?
  8. By "could" I mean would it even be feasible. He's a 9th inning only type of pitcher now and has been for some time. Since the start of 2014, he only has pitched 3 innings before the 8th.
  9. That's a lot of Kraft Dinner!
  10. Correct on both accounts. Could they even bring Jansen back in a non-closer role?
  11. The Jays have to SPEND because nobody wants to move to Canada to play baseball.
  12. It is more likely now that schedules include more and more out of division games (68% outside division now, 53% the last time the Sox were in the WS).
  13. Chat, which former Jays player should have played for the Red Sox and why is it Joe Carter?
  14. Looking forward to Brock adding a Jays site for us once they sign Bregman so that we can migrate there. Bob Nightengale of USA Today recently appeared on Area 45 with Bijani and Creighton and suggested the Blue Jays might have a six-year offer out to Bregman.
  15. People on here figured they'd be over the 2nd CBT!
  16. Jays are 5th. Sox are 13th (11th CBT). I'm more concerned about the 13th part than where the Jays stand. On $'s, they are closer to 18th place than 5th place. This will be the 3rd year in a row they are out of the top 10. That hasn't happened in at least 30 years if not longer.
  17. Stop relying on AI, bud. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/02/players-that-could-move-to-the-60-day-il-once-spring-training-begins-2.html Some extra roster flexibility is on the way, as the 60-day injured list comes back when pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training. It’s worth pointing out that the “60 days” don’t start being counted until Opening Day. Although a team can transfer a player to the 60-day IL quite soon, they will likely only do so if they aren’t expecting the player back until end of May or later. Transferring a player to the 60-day IL also requires a corresponding move, so a club can’t just make the move in isolation. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/why-isnt-the-60-day-dl-year-round/ At the end of every season, players on the 60-day DL get activated. As a consequence, they occupy spots on 40-man rosters. And then around the start of every spring training, players get placed on the 60-day DL, as it’s again made available. But for one thing, just on principle, it seems weird that the 60-day DL isn’t year-round.
  18. TOR added 6.4 fWAR with Max, Hoffman, Santander, Garcia and Bettencourt for 32M. Not terrible, but I'm not sure how confident I feel about Max at 2 fWAR. It's also not really a tremendous haul either. Crochet alone is projected at 4.8 fWAR. Sox added another 3 fWAR with Buehler, Chapman, et al.
  19. moon is a TOR superfan, confirmed.
