    If you take Bello's opener starts out of the pen, their fWAR is middle of the road. It's an average pen IMO. They could use another arm if they really are serious about competing.

    $75k is nothing to this team. I know we joke about them not spending money, but it had everything to do with performance and the ASB. He already made $250k in roster bonuses previously. Even NESN states "Boston needed to clear space anyway with Brayan Bello back in MLB and Ranger Suarez on his way to healing, as well." Well duh, so not really about the money then.

    Duran has only 5 2b's in 297 PA's since 4/23. Only 1 in 189 PA's since 5/20.

    I'm glad Walker won. He looked cool as Hell and his parents were in attendance and gave a good story about him growing up sleeping with his mitt everyday since he was 3.

    They had oversized Geico gloves instead which were something...

    I'd be disappointed in a middle of the road path where they buy an overpriced middle reliever and get washed in the WC.

    Trading for past performance sounds like a bad idea. I want a guy who will perform well for the next 4 years.

    His bb rate was up and his k rate was down. It's one of those cases where we just have to trust that the people watching the guys behind the scenes are seeing much more of what's going on with a player than what is happening on field. He's been ok, but it's a little bit of a surprising DFA. They must believe that Bello is going to stick in the pen for a while and are going to run out of room out there?
  9. mvp 78
    Please, he's asking for specifics! You know, the things that aren't typically leaked. Seems like a fair demand even though all reporting in the offseason disagree with his current assertion.

    It was fun watching him with the Bowser bat. The crowd was HOT. Can't believe the Sox coach pitched him up and in at the end. Brutal.
  11. mvp 78
    If the Sox want to hold onto the young arms long term, they will need Bello down the stretch to take on a bunch of innings. I'm dubious on the pitching holding up, but we'll see.
  12. mvp 78
    Don't ask me. I'm not proposing the trade.
  13. mvp 78
    If he wasn't able to deal Duran when he wanted to, he overvalued him (as all reports have suggested).
  14. mvp 78
    Mayer didn't end up playing much 3b after all (though that may be his best position).
  15. mvp 78
    What else would it take to get a deal done for Lindor? Story, Godbout, __________ For Lindor
  16. mvp 78
    For Lindor? I think they'd want a better return than Masa and Story TBH. Don't care what BTV says.

    He's 28 years old. If I have to heavily weigh a small sample size for him, he must be pretty bad.

    The Astros were willing to deal Paredes. Craig reportedly couldn't get a deal across the table because he was asking for too much because his valuation on Duran was too high. It has been mentioned by local and national reporters. This was discussed over and over last offseason. We don't need to be gaslit here.

    "Feeding the monster."

    Dude, if you trade a bunch of prospects, it's going to affect how your org is ranked. It's just how it is. It doesn't matter how those prospects perform the following season. You trade a bunch of near MLB arms and the team ranking will go down. This shouldn't be controversial.
  23. mvp 78
    Justin Gonzales has crazy tools, but rocks that super high GB rate that kind of limits Roman Anthony. If Gonzales can keep his exit velo, but add some loft, he'd be better off.
  24. mvp 78
    Witherspoon has shown some recent flashes. He has a solid floor and should definitely start in MLB someday. He didn't pop the way Eyanson did this season, but I don't think his future is really in question.
  25. mvp 78
    I don't want either TBH. The cost for Bichette would be weird because of the opt outs and I think his swing doesn't really work at Fenway.
