    Westbrook has a higher OPS than Senzel against LHP. Not sure Senzel will ever reach the ceiling people once thought he had. He's also a dreadful fielder.
  2. mvp 78
    He's getting ready for softball in a year or two.

    @redsoxstats BA has finally changed course for the Sox in the mocks, this morning going: 12. Red Sox — Trey Yesavage, RHP, East Carolina Yesavage throws 94-97 with good ride on his fastball, and his slider this year had a 57% whiff rate and his split-change got 55% whiffs, both in the 98/99th percentile. I like that profile!

    I trust Breslow is doing due diligence to find moves to make this team better. Whether he has enough $$$ from Henry to make the moves, we don't know. I disregard whatever Sam Wormtongue says now. It'd be nice to be able to like a local guy like that, but miss me with his ******** act.

    The only evidence is that scouts say it, SoxProspects say it and his defense is just average to slightly above average right now. It's only going to get worse.

    @MattCouture5 Justin Turner really is the perfect add for this Red Sox team 1) will likely be dirt cheap via trade and could likely get the Blue Jays to eat a chunk of his remaining salary too 2) Fits a need of an upgraded right handed bat that can play 1B 3) Red Sox fans love him and he loves Boston. Great locker room guy. Good leader. 4) Playoff experience. Clutch hitter 812 OPS vs LHP this year too.

    The rumor was that he was looking for a veteran starting pitcher. No idea what spot in the rotation that would be for or what he's willing to give up. Sammy stated that FSG is willing to SPEND for any player if the deal was right. I won't believe it until I see it though.

    The platoon issue and offspeed stuff has been noted by scouts going back a few years. Feel free to be made at me about it though. I was just listing the reasons that I think he's more expendable than Teel or Anthony.

    Learning to hit in his 30's is ignoring the full season total for 2021: 701 OPS. He only had 64 PA's with BOS that year. The only reason I'd not bring him back is he isn't really a SS anymore and that's where he had the most value. -2 OAA, 6th percentile arm strength. If they are just finding another 2B/3B type, I think they can do better.

    Giolito Whitlock

    Winckowski is not a starter. I don't mind him being stretched out a little, but I don't want him throwing more than 3 innings out of the pen. They were fooling themselves if they thought he'd actually become a starter. He wasn't sent down to be stretched out, he was sent down because he wasn't following Bailey's plan.

    TBD vs Ragans Criswell is scheduled to go for WOO tonight, is he called up instead? Bullpen game?
  13. mvp 78
    Bryce Rainer, SS, Harvard-Westlake HS, Studio City, Calif come on down! What about switch pitcher Cijntje? 1. Not enough vowels in that name for it to be real. 2. Sox were pioneers in switch pitching having Greg Harris back in the day.
  14. mvp 78
    Kiké in 21: 45 starts at 2b, 81 in CF Hard to count that 3.7 entirely towards 2b.
  15. mvp 78
    As long as it's a SS, I'm good with it.
  16. mvp 78
    Or he goes to a field that doesn't allow him to have an 884 Home OPS considering how lefty friendly Fenway can be. Butterfly man could be impacted by the butterfly effect in a trade and perform worse elsewhere.
  17. mvp 78
    I think Sox are overloaded at LHB. If they needed to move a top level prospect, Mayer seemed like the best guy to move to me. I'd keep Teel and Anthony. Anthony has the highest ceiling. Teel has the highest floor.
  18. mvp 78
    Only highlighting one college arm? Yikes.
  19. mvp 78
    If only they had a guy like Tzu Wei Lin as depth though!
  20. mvp 78
    Overdue for a healthy season or two?
  21. mvp 78
    A blue chip SS who will need to move off position, has a platoon split and struggles with offspeed pitches. He could bring a nice return though.
  22. mvp 78
    Depends on the return.
  23. mvp 78
    Who is going to want oft injured Story AND unproductive Yoshida. Hard sell with those two. Easier to hold your nose and keep Story who can at least field competently.
  24. mvp 78
    Maybe we need to come up with a TalkSox tracker. My vote: Anthony Mayer Teel Campbell Perales Bleis Cespedes Fitts Zanetello Yorke Arias Meidroth Sandlin Rodriguez Johanfran Paulino Castro Lugo Blaze Jhostynxon
  25. mvp 78
    Duran CF, Hamilton 2B, O’Neill LF, Devers 3B, Wong C, Yoshida DH, Abreu RF, Smith 1B, Rafaela SS
