    Caleb Durbin: 598 OPS April 384 OPS May The bench is that way...

    Thought it was an away game. Sox are losingl

    I feel the same now as I did on Friday. I also don't feel very strongly about the third WC spot being all that meaningful. If the Sox have 6 teams ahead of them in the WC race and there are now 3 WC spots, it's pretty pathetic IMO. That's how many there were on Friday AM!

    This offense is the tawny scrawny lion.

    All the IL stints were typical? He only had 43 G at AAA. For a guy only OPSing 818, I would have liked to see him go a bit longer.

    Per FanGraphs, he wasn't quite worth it (135M value), but I think the Cubbies take that contract every time since it helped win the WS.

    Cool. Do you think Mookie cares about the CBT or his cash? Mookie Betts signed a 12 year, $365,000,000 contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, including $65,000,000 signing bonus, $365,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $30,416,667.

    I'm saying that I've seen and heard it all over over the place, not just on here. Adding Adames to it only compounds the problem. Who cares if they cover the full cost of Masa and Story for another 18 months. Adames and Chapman are signed into the 2030's! Not sure how trading for underperforming, aging, overpaid players is going to help the Boston Red Sox.

    His contract is only 13M. That's not the holdup over a certain tier of prospect IMO.

    Last time out for Strider vs Sox: 5.1, 1 ER, 3 H, 3 BB, 4 K Sox do better away from Fenway so maybe they have a better shot? Suarez will have to be near perfect though.

    GM's want to win this year. Chapman could help a team at the top of the standings do that. Sox are at the top of the draft board instead.
  13. mvp 78
    They should have left him as a reliever because that 5.86 ERA ERA and 829 OPS as a starter didn't work for me! Look at that dogwater roster that Jimy took to 94 wins and the ALCS. It was an amazing managerial job.

    The problem with Wake was that his best years were in years that ultimately didn't matter. The years that were important to the Sox (99, 04, 07, 08, 11) were years where he just didn't pitch all that well in. His last two years were pretty bad and he should have retired after 09 when he missed half the season or at the very least after 10 when the bottom fell out.

    Cheng has not really hit at AAA. Since hitting for the cycle, his OPS has tanked. Calling him up wouldn't have worked. Capra is 29 and basically the same as Sogard, but not on the 40 man. We were talking about last season though. Sogard should have been the call last year while Marcelo was still maturing as a hitter and Bregman was injured. This year, none of these guys have the ceiling to really make a difference. They have a limited offensive output and a limited defensive output. You can put them out there more, but the team will still have a .500 ceiling.
  16. mvp 78
    You want a high ceiling ace for 5 years over a string of low ceiling 4th starters??? WTH?
  17. mvp 78
    The issue is that Werner wants to go full throttle, but he doesn't have the voting power at FSG to do so. They only give live mics to Sammy now because there are too many differing voices in ownership. The team is underperforming and needs some veteran leadership to help lead them through their formative years. Rafaela has performed well this season and he has taken to Contreras. Story isn't a strong enough leader to push Anthony, Marcelo and others along.

    Voting for the Hall of Fame is deeply unserious.

    Sogard has a higher wRC+. You can option him whenever you feel like it and it doesn't matter. He was one of the few guys to play well in the playoffs from what I remember. They should have just gone with Sogard. When you have a high ceiling guy like Mayer, you take your time and wait for them to bust through the door. He just didn't earn his promotion.
  21. mvp 78
    Not a playoff team if that's the case. That's the 2015 Sox.
  22. mvp 78
    Azocar got the callup. He'll really mash in the HR heavy SALY.
  23. mvp 78
    And that's hitting in POR in April and May!!!!
  24. mvp 78
    I love his pitch mix and build. If he adds velo, he's going to move up the system easily. Not sure about the ceiling at the moment, but it's good to have starters like him around.
  25. mvp 78
    It was actually Pete Alonso or Devin Sweet.
