    It shows to me that there is no reason to push him to make BOS this season. Might as well wait for him to be more ready at some point next season.
  2. mvp 78
    Grissom probably isn't a fulltime 2B a few years from now. Maybe a UTIL guy? Unfortunately, Kristian Campbell may surpass him in that role in a year or so as well.
  3. mvp 78
    If you package Yoshida, you are basically giving the other player away for free. Fine if you are giving up on the season.

    First appearance in MLB Posey 235 OPS, good following season after 47 more games in AAA (so why call him up the year before???) Zunino 620 OPS, not good until 26 years old Grandal 863 OPS as second half call up at age 23 (would be 2nd half of next year for Teel which seems fine with me) Castro 573 OPS as second half call up at age 23 Wieters 753 OPS as early season call up at age 23, never really reached the heights expected of him especially first few seasons None of the guys you listed were really ready their age 22 season, which you want to push Teel to appear this year. Have him appear 2nd half of next year? Sure? That seems like a more realistic timetable considering the above datapoints. He also doesn't have the prospect ceiling of some of the players mentioned above (Wieters, Posey).

    @SPChrisHatfield Maybe the worst part of the Perales TJS: b/c he's on the 40-man roster, he's going to have burned 2 options by the time he's fully rehabbed (I'm assuming he's out for most of 2025). He has 2026 to get ready to contribute full time in 2027. 2 offseasons of a dead roster spot too.

    Bassitt's last 5 games: 30 IP 1.20 ERA 2.45 FIP
  7. mvp 78
    It's his 4th year in the system and he doesn't even have 165 IP. Check please!!!

    Not based on his defense.

    Romy was good enough to be the benchwarmer on the 2023 ChiSox. He's a fill in that can play anywhere without being an embarrassment, but not someone you want playing everyday. Basically, he's a AAAA UTIL guy.
  10. mvp 78
    He was a slight disappointment last year and hasn't found his footing this year due to injuries. I'm not throwing the baby out with the bath water just yet. He still has time to earn some of that contract back. He's been better than Hanley, Pablo, Rusney, Crawford and Sale extension.
  11. mvp 78
    Being an MLB catcher is MUCH MORE than just hitting.
  12. mvp 78
    Who cares? Ship him out of town if he's not looking good.
  13. mvp 78
    They should have found a better backup 1B/3B IMO. Justin Turner hasn't been great, but I think we all would have been much happier with him instead of Bobby and Garrett Cooper.
  14. mvp 78
    He's apparently taking next year off, so he can use all his brainpower now.
  15. mvp 78
    He needs to borrow Cutter Coffey's bat.
  16. mvp 78
    Good point. Valdez has over 1,000 innings at 3B vs Romy's barely 100 professional innings. I'd still not play either at 3B.
  17. mvp 78
    Ref LF/DH O'Neilll RF/DH Rafaela CF Duran LF/CF Abreu LF/RF
  18. mvp 78
    29.2 MLB innings and 87 MiLB innings does not make a quality backup plan for Raffy in case of injury.
  19. mvp 78
    Sox really don't have a viable backup 3B if Devers goes down aside from Bobby.
  20. mvp 78
    His BABIP last season was 340 with a 33% k rate. If he maintained a 340 BABIP with a 18% k rate, he'd still have really good numbers.
  21. mvp 78
    That's why you keep Ceddanne in CF, the RHB.
  22. mvp 78
    No matter what he does, it won't be decisive enough for somebody.
  23. mvp 78
    They still have 3.5 months left of CONTROL over him and are determined to use it!
  24. mvp 78
    Hell NO!
  25. mvp 78
    Well, when you cut your k rate from 33% to 18%, you'll see your OPS go up. His BABIP is a little high though. If he can maintain a k rate around 20%, that would be an amazing turn around for his offense. A backup catcher that can give you about 800 OPS is pretty valuable IMO.
