    I just took issue with moon's wording of "he does turn 22 in December so he's not super young" and interpreted that he was either at a normal age for the level or an expected age for the level. Current prominent INTL Sox: Wilyer didn't get to AA until he was 23. Bello was 22 (COVID year may have pushed it back one year). Devers was 20 - phenom. Rafaela was 21. He's not having a meteoric rise, but he's young enough where starting AA again as a 22 year old isn't cause for concern or anything. He'd still be on the younger side for that level. Not everyone there is an org guy, you also have college guys that are just a tick older than the INTL guys. The orgy guys really skew it for AAA where the average age increases to 26 for hitters and 27 for pitchers. Pitchers: A 21.9 A+ 23.1 AA 24.6 AAA 27.3 Hitters: A 21.0 A+ 22.5 AA 24.2 AAA 26.6 Overall increase level to level is approximately 1.5 years until you get to AAA where it just explodes due to orgy players.

    Almost as realistic as trading for the top tier SEA pitchers IMO.

    Soto LF Rafaela CF Anthony RF It's best for business. It's what I would do. Now to just head to Fenway and do what must be done. 🧄✝️⚔️🧛‍♀️⚰️

    Sox had interest in Yamamoto they just weren't the highest bidders.
  5. mvp 78
    C'mon man. He completely tanked payroll to get under the cap. In 2022, they barely went over the CBT. To call that one of the biggest increases in his tenure just ignores so much context that it's an absurd argument.
  6. mvp 78
    What does this even mean?
  7. mvp 78
    That's why a 7/180 or something closer to that makes more sense than the 11 year contract the Padres gave out. It was just too long of a deal. I'd be fine with eating a year or two. Eating several is a bad business decision for a guy that isn't HOF caliber.

    Fulmer depends on health and only the Sox know where he's at. Jhostynxon is a AA player.
  9. mvp 78
    Yes. The original one wasn't real either.
  10. mvp 78
    And that man is definitely NOT Tom Werner.
  11. mvp 78
    I like Bogaerts going forward, just not at the 280M the Padres gave him. At 180M it would have been fine IMO. I don't think his offense will play well in SD, but his fall off this year was strictly due to an injury.

    People have told us that when they get close again with the prospects, the purse strings will be loosened. I don't know how much of that is wishcasting.

    Bogey's last 5 seasons (2700+ PA) with BOS: 133 OPS+ Not sure why you are so down on him right now. 🤷‍♀️
  14. mvp 78
    We'll acquire great pitching by trading leftover parts then!
  15. mvp 78
    Who?
  16. mvp 78
    Pablo Sandoval?
  17. mvp 78
    Nah, it's much easier to get into the playoffs and the teams in the AL aren't very good right now. With the young guys coming up, they can get into the backend of the playoffs and "contend" for a little while. They won't get far or win a WS without spending, but they can get into the playoffs once in a while and maybe win a WC round here and there.

    I looked into it and the answer was really dumb.
  19. mvp 78
    I have 104 days to sleep.
  20. mvp 78
    Garcia isn't in competition with those pitching slots, just Sogard and Gasper. I think they try putting Wikelman in the pen and maybe trade or DFA him during the year. Murphy still has a lot of value, I wouldn't move on from him unless you know something I don't. Ian from SoxProspects believes they will protect Jhostynxon.
  21. mvp 78
    He had a 117 OPS+ last season. He was just injured this year. Very similar to his 2017 year when he had the season long wrist injury that zapped his power. 6.6 fWAR for 23 and 24 at 30M AAV is breakeven. That's a Nate Eovaldi extension baby!
  22. mvp 78
    Dobbins - Yes Garcia - Maybe Castro - No Monegro - No Blaze - No
  23. mvp 78
    Trade Duran and Abreu for pitching. LF: Soto CF: Rafaela RF: Anthony
  24. mvp 78
    Don't bother. Just say that "mvp, you were right" like everyone else does.
  25. mvp 78
    The money is good, but that's definitely a cursed monkey's paw when you sign an Angels contract.
