    Grissom isn't going to be handed the starting role. I think he's going to have to earn it, but other players will leap ahead of him. Seems like a bench bat? Did the Red Sox make the playoffs in 1975?
  2. mvp 78
    And if he wasn't horrendous from 4/1 - 5/15.
  3. mvp 78
    Not going to get worked up over a 17 game sample. However, it's like 339 since May 25th (60 Games). This is about the same as Dom Smith's over the same period. Lower than Masa's since coming back from injury.

    In a different year, he'd be in the conversation. He's not even the best rookie on his team.

    @SmittyOnMLB The Red Sox felt good about trading Alex Verdugo because they believed in Wilyer Abeu. Abreu has more extra-base hits (38) than Verdugo (35) in 159 fewer plate appearances.

    Anthony in RF. Rafaela in CF. Mayer at SS. Story at 2B.
  7. mvp 78
    You can't only trade away players when they are bad. That's when the org gets put in a rough financial position.
  8. mvp 78
    I'd rather have Abreu be the DH, so yes.
  9. mvp 78
    It's very cozy.

    White C, Turner OF, Ehrhard OF - GRE Tolbert RHP - SAL Everyone else is in Ft Myers (FCL or inactive).

    Licensed to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. A man, free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever.
  12. mvp 78
    That's when you should trade them the most.
  13. mvp 78
    Hope he mashes through October and the Sox can trade him.
  14. mvp 78
    Not sure it was out of necessity. Sogard looked like he was ready in ST. He's now had a hit in each game he has started.
  15. mvp 78
    He is not really in the hunt.
  16. mvp 78
    Only Valdez and McGuire have lower OBPs than Rafaela's 288 (100 PA's and above). There's a reason he remains the 9th hitter.
  17. mvp 78
    3rd in PA's because he can't take a walk.
  18. mvp 78
    Nick Sogard has a 115 OPS+. Trade Mayer.
  19. mvp 78
    He should be. He has a terrible split this year.
  20. mvp 78
    Abreu is rotated through the OF and get like 25-35% of the reps. Anthony/Duran/Rafaela are the majority of the reps once Anthony is established. No platoons.
  21. mvp 78
    Hudson White is a very good defensive catcher so it'll be good for him to work with Rodriguez, Monegro, Paez, Wehunt, Mullins, etc. in Greenville.

    @SmittyOnMLB Red Sox 2nd rounder Payton Tolle (LHP) assigned to Florida Complex League 8th rounder Conrad Cason (two-way player) assigned to FCL 9th rounder Hudson White © assigned to High-A Greenville 18th rounder Cole Tolbert (RHP) assigned to Low-A Salem
  23. mvp 78
    Half of Masa's salary with higher bWAR.
  24. mvp 78
    I hope Masa stays hot and they can trade him. It fixes a lot of the logjam IMO.
  25. mvp 78
    All I said was "it's something to worry about if he's going to try to stick behind the plate long term" which is what they said. They even talked about his bat needing to be good enough for 1B or DH. I'm not out of pocket on this one IMO. They are higher on Johanfran because he's younger and still as advanced offensively. If he can stick at catcher, he has much more value than his brother. If not, the value goes down.
