    Not sure his value is high enough to even net a middling reliever.
  2. mvp 78
    Well, tell that to Grissom.
  3. mvp 78
    At some point, they were waving the white flag and a lot of us were hoping it was just them putting the laundry on the clothesline.

    I don't think anyone is even applying a FINAL grade right now. I think it's fine to state how you feel right now and provide a status update.

    When they traded Sale, it seemed like a move that was putting this season into the punt category.
  6. mvp 78
    Did this trade improve them at 2B? We haven't seen it yet.
  7. mvp 78
    They traded Sale for Grissom, not Ketel Marté. If they needed hitting, they should have gotten it. Grissom will be a question mark until he actually produces at the MLB level. I'd rather go with him than the other guys they have, but that's not saying much.

    @tylermilliken_ As the weather gets better, the Big 3 are getting hotter. Stats in the month of May: Mayer - 75 PA - .294/.347/.471/.817 - 1 HR - 9 2 B - 133 wRC+ Anthony - 71 PA - .283/.380/.483/.864 - 1 HR - 7 2B - 147 wRC+ Teel - 56 PA - 354/.446/.521/.967 - 1 HR - 5 2B - 181 wRC+

    He'll be 32 after his last year of arbitration. I expect a decline around then for him at least in terms of his speed, which is his greatest asset.

    Not sure if it's the "payroll department" or just their own internal player valuation where they assign a dollar value to each player and don't go over it an inch.

    Duran - LF Rafaela - CF Anthony - RF Abreu - 4th OFer Refsnyder - 5th OFer The only near term filler from the minors would possibly be Lugo, but that guy has had a very volatile development track and his defense is really LF only at this point. Castro, Bleis and others are still in A ball and lower with uncertain timetables and projections.

    I wonder if Imanaga cools off after teams see him the second time. Wheeler is running a career low BABIP right now, but he's having an amazing post age 30 run.
  13. mvp 78
    He's cheap for the next few years. Enjoy him as long as he's playing well. Guys like him don't typically age well so just keep him around until FA. Unless you're getting an ace back, why would you move him at this point?
  14. mvp 78
    It's May so there's lots of baseball left to play. That would be the biggest obstacle IMO.
  15. mvp 78
    Having a 305 OPS in 53 PA's will do it.
  16. mvp 78
    Last year, he has a pitching run value that was 52nd percentile. It's now 99th. He was fine last year, but not really Chris Freakin' Sale. We'd all be over the moon if we got vintage Sale one more time in Boston. We weren't gushing the past few years because he was injured or struggling to come back. Most people realize there are still underlying concerns with Sale, you're just annoyed that not every pro-Sale post isn't littered with concerns about his health. We don't need to worry about his health anymore because he doesn't pitch for the Red Sox. If he's great, we can enjoy it from afar. One bad contract doesn't sink a high budget team like what the Sox should be.

    @SoxNotes Ceddanne Rafaela leads the Red Sox with 25 RBI, most among MLB rookies. With a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs, he has driven in at least 1 run in 11 of 15 opportunities. .417 AVG 1.083 SLG 16 RBI 2 home runs 2 doubles 1 single 3 sac flies 3 RBI groundouts/FC
  18. mvp 78
    I hope Chris Sale is healthy all season and wins the CY. He deserves it. He was great for the Sox and still checks in on his old teammates.
  19. mvp 78
    Imagine if he was still here pitching like this, every 5th day would be "well, why weren't you guys splooging on Chris Sale Day the last few years?!?!?!?!?"
  20. mvp 78
    3 innings? Bard only pitched 2 IP+ 11 times from 09-11 and not once did he get to 2.2 IP.
  21. mvp 78
    Oh no.
  22. mvp 78
    It's Chris Freakin' Sale!
  23. mvp 78
    Bard started sucking at the end of 2011 right before conversion. 9/1 - 10/1/11: 10.64 ERA, 5.01 xFIP, 11 IP, 13 ER, 11 H, 9 BB, 11 K, 1.82 WHIP, 4 L Daniel Bard ruined 2011 for the Red Sox and put them on the downward spiral we are on today.
  24. mvp 78
    Hard to gush over someone that's injured.
  25. mvp 78
    A lot of very smart posters thought Crawford was underrated coming into this year and that he had a chance to breakout. Houck will probably just get injured at some point.
