    If that's what they want on the bench, Campbell makes 1,000,000 X more sense than Grissom.
  2. mvp 78
    If we don't deal him, he may get injured. It's a real Sophie's choice.
  3. mvp 78
    If we deal Story, he could win Comeback Player of the Year though...
  4. mvp 78
    Feel free to dogpile/pigpile (whichever is your preference) on Alex as he stated on the podcast that he typically doesn't add to the "engagement" unless it gets on the larger side. Maybe we can shame him into justifying his hatred of Rob Refsnyder. I'm sure Vaughn Grissom and his 81 career OPS+ and horrible defense is a better fit for the team than a guy who has had a 119 OPS+ while with the Sox.

    I thought it was launch angles, not necessarily swinging harder?
  6. mvp 78
    Baseball players have always gotten injured. Ellis Burks and Mike Greenwell weren't jacked to the gills and they had injury issues off and on. Not every player can be a Dwight Evans and stay relatively healthy for most of their career.
  7. mvp 78
    Yeah, Romy isn't really great in the OF. It doesn't make much sense to have Romy, Grissom and Hamilton on the bench at the same time as they all serve the same purpose.
  8. mvp 78
    So they agree to one year ARB and then an extension with a 3 year opt out starting in 26. So a 4 year deal?
  9. mvp 78
    3 years is too soon since they already have control of him for 2.

    2018: tore UCL in thumb in second game 2019: 500 2021: 449 (including AFL) 2022: 429 (doesn't include USA baseball stats 24+ PA's,, missed 2 months with high ankle sprain) 2023: 502 (shoulder inflamation) 2024: 292 (rib injury)
  11. mvp 78
    Why would they work on an extension? He said no last year and their offer would be lower this time.
  12. mvp 78
    Nintendo's ownership stake is a big reason the Mariners acquired Ichiro. I think them owning a team on the West Coast contributed to that conversation.
  13. mvp 78
    His WAR would have been higher if he was left in CF for the whole season too.
  14. mvp 78
    Grissom doesn't have a track record of being injured prior to last season and neither does Masa. Story and Casas are a different issue at the moment.
  15. mvp 78
    I don't think that's an issue.
  16. mvp 78
    Not if they don't have a replacement at 3B.
  17. mvp 78
    Blooming late in his MiLB career the some adjustments under the new admin. Maybe he can continue to improve and provide something. Ceiling of a 4/5, but maybe a bulk innings guy in the pen?
  18. mvp 78
    Started with the Dodgers: Nomo, Maeda, Kuroda, Saito Started with the Mariners: Kikuchi, Iwakuma, Ichiro The other two teams that early on signed bigger name Japanese players were the Sox and Yankees due to the amount of money they could spend (Matsui, Irabu, Igawa, Okajima, DiceK).
  19. mvp 78
    In the OF rotation as I suggested. I don't think he gets anything if put in AAA.
  20. mvp 78
    Pain.
  21. mvp 78
    That's my opinion as well.
  22. mvp 78
    I think DET is out after signing Torres.
  23. mvp 78
    I just wonder what the market is for Bregman as several teams have found their replacement at 3B already and have moved on from Bregman. HOU and NYY are probably out. DET signed Torres. Aside from the Sox, the only current suitors are Jays and Mets apparently. Mets probably prefer to bring Alonso back and the Jays are an imperfect fit. Sox may be able to get him at a good price.
  24. mvp 78
    I think OF is pretty stacked. I could see a Bregman addition, but can still see a path for Campbell and Anthony making the roster even if he's added. C Wong/Whoever 1B Devers 2B Campbell/Romy SS Story 3B Bregman OF Rafaela/Anthony/Duran/Abreu/Refsnyder DH Masa Traded Casas
  25. mvp 78
    If they let Crochet go after two years, it was a bad trade.
