    Very few trades happen during the season it feels like. Unless they are planning on holding onto everyone until the deadline.

    There's the car salesman we all know.

    Here's his k looking % by year. 23.1 is the MLB average.

    So no Conteras, Gray and Suarez, but Alonso and Schwarber? Terrible defense. Pitching is a big question mark. The current team is better TBH.
  5. mvp 78
    If they sign Schwarber instead of Suarez and make no other corresponding moves to this roster, it's a very terrible roster (Casas AND Masa AND Schwarber AND Duran all playing DH?). I believe that Contreras will be better than Alonso over the next 2 seasons.

    Song could get to BOS quick if his stuff ticks up. I think Wu-Yellend might get to AAA soon and push the envelope as a LH reliever (high k rate).

    Guys not on the 40 that could make MLB in the near future Mullins Song Holobetz Wu-Yellend Mullins may only take longer to get to BOS if they try to have him start.

    Gee, I wonder who it was that Dombrowski didn't get along with in this organization and was annoyed that would show up at whole bunch of meetings unannounced... 🤔

    The only way the Yanks miss the playoffs is if Judge hits the IL. They are near locks year in and year out now with expanded playoffs.

    Depends on the hitter TBH. Casas? Should be swinging. Working a long count? Fine. Watching a close called 3rd strike? Not ok. Working the count is fine these days with starting pitchers no longer able to go beyond 100 pitches. If the team has a bad bullpen, try to get to it early.

    Doesn't make sense.

    Castro is a switch hitter and he really struggles against LHP. I wonder if his LH swing will get a bump in WOO. He won't get platooned in the near future, but if he can't start hitting vs LHP he's going to be out of the system at some point.

    SP currently states Early has a ceiling of a third starter and it's based on his velo only. The way they look at pitchers is purely "if this guy throws hard and has command he'll have a high ceiling with good secondaries" he'll get a TOTR projection. With Early, he has a great pitch mix and his velo is just a tick under what the want to see. Unfortunately, that has caused them to underrate Early going back to his first professional season. They've always been high AF on Tolle because of the velo ("ceiling of a 2 but that may be light'). We have seen how those two have pitched. Early may just be closer to a finished product and may be more likely to reach his ceiling. Maybe he can even be better than what SP projects? They didn't put #3 in his scouting report until last season so he's already pushing that projection higher. Casas will most likely start on the IL then rehab at AAA. Not sure how they'd have Masa and Casas on the active roster together. There would need to be some sort of move made.

    Calling a team that you are projecting to win 90 games "Flops" is a little silly IMO.

    Pythagorus said that you should have gone 76-86 in '21. Very weird roster.

    “You can’t replace someone like Raffy,” Kennedy said. Even if you believe this, why say it? This guy is so dumb.

    "Well, players should just want to play for the Sox by taking LESS money and not caring if they are traded a year or two into their contract. He clearly just didn't want to be here. It had nothing to do with us not wanting him or getting outbid!"

    Wilson and Coulombe are both still available.
  21. mvp 78
    Sure, but they already have pretty ridiculous depth. 1. Crochet 2. Suarez 3. Gray 4. Bello 5. Sandoval 6. Oviedo 7. Crawford 8. Early 9. Tolle 10. Uberstine
  22. mvp 78
    Blum is a 6'7" UDFA who added 5 MPH to his 4 seamer since May and throws a plus curveball, per his pitching coach.
  23. mvp 78
    I think they will try to deal Sandoval so that they get back under the 2nd threshold. If he's looking good in ST, someone will want him.
