    He had a magical self repairing arm that mystified doctors. He should have bet on himself IMO.
  2. mvp 78
    He has too much Clay Buchholz energy IMO. I think that analogy may resonate with a lot of Sox fans here.
  3. mvp 78
    It could be a form of self care as long as you aren't going to fall off hard later on.
  4. mvp 78
    The interest kings are back, baby!

    I'm NOT a Blake Snell guy.
  6. mvp 78
    Sox reportedly met with Blake Snell. I don't know what emoji to use for that one. 🛀📻

    I agree, I'm just saying there's no excuse not to get that high. The penalties are meaningless. They'll be close enough to the CBT that they could reset next season.
  8. mvp 78
    Fanbases should be able to opt out from an ownership group, but still retain the team.
  9. mvp 78
    They're at the point where they need to prove it to the fans.
  10. mvp 78
    They have $50M coming off the books after this season. There is no reason to not exceed the CBT by 40M.
  11. mvp 78
    True, I misworded that sentiment using "only."
  12. mvp 78
    No excuses for the Sox and the CBT. They were under last year. They can go over this year. The tax penalties are less than what they paid Sale to play elsewhere.
  13. mvp 78
    Oh, I don't think the majority of us want player opt outs in a Soto contract. Player opt outs only serve players that are underperforming the contract. I'd rather they just pay him until he's 40 with no opt outs. If there's a way to defer money and reduce the AAV, tremendous.
  14. mvp 78
    I was agreeing with your points against our resident goober.
  15. mvp 78
    Yup, I should just read further before replying. 🙃
  16. mvp 78
    8-12 years with how many opt outs? That's the only way a shorter deal gets done. Higher AAV, more opt outs.
  17. mvp 78
    He believes so. I say no.
  18. mvp 78
    What else do we have to go on? We can try to project Soto's "PRIME YEARS" but we know things don't always line up that way.
  19. mvp 78
    https://www.fangraphs.com/players/seby-zavala/18887/stats?position=C Decent defensive profile. Most likely a AAA/emergency callup guy. I don't know if they have a backup catcher yet.

    Brandon Workman only pitched 21 MLB innings after leaving the Sox. He came back to pitch 20 more and then retire after '21. Hembree pitched until '23, but amassed -0.9 bWAR and was shuttled to 6 different locations.
  21. mvp 78
    I saw that earlier. Hilarious. Sox would've lit that up like a Christmas tree last year.
  22. mvp 78
    Hugh did NOT say midrotation for Fitts.
  23. mvp 78
    Per SoxProspects: Summation: Potential fringe back-end starter or multi-inning reliever. Ceiling of a fourth starter.
  24. mvp 78
    Fitts is back end to bullpen most likely. I haven't heard anyone say midrotation ceiling either.
  25. mvp 78
    Rays have extended SOME players in the past (Wander, Longoria). They don't tend to sign FA's like Gio, Story, etc. The Red Sox are certainly not following any TBR trajectory. They are midmarket, not small market.
