    I just wouldn't bet on pitchers above 35 to stay healthy over the course of several years.

    Replacement? Just throw Masa out there for the rest of the season.

    I believe there was a Globe article last week about it and why it's taking so long. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2026/06/29/sports/red-sox-garrett-crochet-shoulder-injury/

    If they really wanted Bregman, why wait until the last second to get that deal over the finish line? Just prioritize him and get it done early. If he's not on board, move on.
  5. mvp 78
    I'm not sure that is the deal the other poster was trying to get to TBH. Low cost, two year? Sure. I just think Gray would end up signing for more than you'd want to pay.
  6. mvp 78
    Seems like a lot of fans on here are equally confused.
  7. mvp 78
    The problem is that BTV isn't great at deciding what works for a pennant race. When a playoff team needs a #2 like Gray, they aren't going to worry about WAR/$ as much as BTV does.

    Craig in July? Bloom did get Abreu and Schwarber. I'm trying to remember a good Breslow deadline deal.

    I don't know if I have Chatterbox anymore. That was on VHS. That movie is ridiculous for sure. I'm 99% sure I no longer have it as I don't have many VHS tapes left.

    The team that is 3rd in MLB revenues and is in a hub of the health care industry should have a better medical staff.
  11. mvp 78
    The offseason needed to be Contreras AND another big bat. Move Masa/Duran and make room for Alonso at DH. They would have been better off doing that instead of signing Ranger IMO. (Yes, they should have done both, but we're talking about Henry here.)
  12. mvp 78
    We are stuck with Henry and Henry is probably stuck with Breslow for the time being. He may have been better off sticking it out with Bloom when all is said and done.
  13. mvp 78
    The problem is that he still built this team around pitching and defense. Contreras is great and the pitchers are great. However, this is a team that couldn't win at Fenway for a long stretch of time because of Craig's inability to put together an offense. They are 28th in runs. They are 30th in runs at Home. They are 30th in HRs at Home. It's really unbelievable how his vision on the hitting side is not seeing results. Whatever they are doing organizationally just isn't working.
  14. mvp 78
    Extend a 36 year old pitcher who has a career low FB velo? No.

    Currently 41-48 7/8/24: 49-41 7/8/23: 46-43 7/8/22: 45-38 7/8/19: 49-41 7/8/15: 40-45 7/8/14: 39-50 7/8/12: 43-42 7/8/01: 51-35 7/8/92: 38-42 If 7 games below .500 after July 4th doesn't get you to want to improve your team for next season, enjoy .500 in 2027 I guess.
  16. mvp 78
    I hope it's a least a little bit of column A and column B.
  17. mvp 78
    There's not one hitter in AAA that would be interesting to see in BOS. POR has 4 guys that are worth watching for now, but only one that could be an impact MLB guy.
  18. mvp 78
    If you're mad about Bello at 0.0 fWAR, just look at Watson's 0.0 fWAR. He has 48.2 IP. He has a 6.20 xERA! I don't even know why he's on the roster except to be a mop up guy.
  19. mvp 78
    Bello has a higher fWAR than they do. 💪
  20. mvp 78
    Duh. It's just silly to infer that all the problem players aren't Breslow's fault since they were acquired by another CBO. Breslow has been in charge for several year now. He had the ability to move the guys that are now playing like garbage. Gray/Ranger/Contreras have been great. Have all the moves been great? No. Durbin was asleep for the first two months. He didn't make enough additions to the bullpen. The reason the Sox are 7 games under .500 is Craig Breslow. So many people got hurt! Shouldn't Story missing most of the season be expected at this point? Pitching injuries are the name of the game these days, but he moved most of their depth away. Narvaez can't hit. Gasper can't field. Mayer wasn't ready last season and him missing time isn't surprising. Aside from Roman going down and Duran being a shell of what he was, where are the big shockers for this team? Relying on a headcase like Duran seems bad for business. Relying on a guy with less than one year of service time to lead your offense feels rather foolish as well.
  21. mvp 78
    They should have been able to develop him. The last DUDE they were able to develop was Devers. Every guy since then has just been a guy. There's still hope for Roman next season.
  22. mvp 78
    To me, the biggest two losses since Henry came here were Mookie and Orsillo. I go back and forth on which I would have rather kept. Both seem kind of unforgiveable. I think you can make a case that you needed to move Devers (not that I'd agree), Sox just haven't done well replacing his bat.
  23. mvp 78
    Abrams is a decent player. Sox should be able to develop somebody like him, not trade away a potential ace for him.
  24. mvp 78
    I wouldn't trade Tolle since he has TOTR starter upside.
  25. mvp 78
    He going to be leading off at some point?
