    That's not what people vote for with the ROY though. It's back of the card stats and whatever metrics and feelings they have. Nobody is going to say "oh, well he's been getting much better each month and should be better than these other guys going forward" when they are voting. The vote doesn't matter enough for voters to get into that detail.

    Grissom has a 706 OPS in AAA this year. He has not been good. I wouldn't pencil him anywhere near BOS. Mayer is younger, has more power and is a much better fielder. Grissom wouldn't even be a speed bump. I wouldn't be surprised to see Grissom traded. All he has going for him right now is he's a RHB. "Don't load the team up with rookies... need to make space for veterans like GRISSOM!"

    That's history, pal!

    Grissom isn't going to be handed the starting role. I think he's going to have to earn it, but other players will leap ahead of him. Seems like a bench bat? Did the Red Sox make the playoffs in 1975?
  5. mvp 78
    And if he wasn't horrendous from 4/1 - 5/15.
  6. mvp 78
    Not going to get worked up over a 17 game sample. However, it's like 339 since May 25th (60 Games). This is about the same as Dom Smith's over the same period. Lower than Masa's since coming back from injury.

    In a different year, he'd be in the conversation. He's not even the best rookie on his team.

    @SmittyOnMLB The Red Sox felt good about trading Alex Verdugo because they believed in Wilyer Abeu. Abreu has more extra-base hits (38) than Verdugo (35) in 159 fewer plate appearances.

    Anthony in RF. Rafaela in CF. Mayer at SS. Story at 2B.

    You can't only trade away players when they are bad. That's when the org gets put in a rough financial position.
  11. mvp 78
    I'd rather have Abreu be the DH, so yes.
  12. mvp 78
    It's very cozy.
  13. mvp 78
    White C, Turner OF, Ehrhard OF - GRE Tolbert RHP - SAL Everyone else is in Ft Myers (FCL or inactive).

    Licensed to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. A man, free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever.
  15. mvp 78
    That's when you should trade them the most.
  16. mvp 78
    Hope he mashes through October and the Sox can trade him.
  17. mvp 78
    Not sure it was out of necessity. Sogard looked like he was ready in ST. He's now had a hit in each game he has started.
  18. mvp 78
    He is not really in the hunt.
  19. mvp 78
    Only Valdez and McGuire have lower OBPs than Rafaela's 288 (100 PA's and above). There's a reason he remains the 9th hitter.
  20. mvp 78
    3rd in PA's because he can't take a walk.
  21. mvp 78
    Nick Sogard has a 115 OPS+. Trade Mayer.
  22. mvp 78
    He should be. He has a terrible split this year.
  23. mvp 78
    Abreu is rotated through the OF and get like 25-35% of the reps. Anthony/Duran/Rafaela are the majority of the reps once Anthony is established. No platoons.
  24. mvp 78
    Hudson White is a very good defensive catcher so it'll be good for him to work with Rodriguez, Monegro, Paez, Wehunt, Mullins, etc. in Greenville.
