    Is he worth his contract? Yes. Should harmony count on him repeating 2023? No. Castillo and Crawford are two different conversations, so I don't want to start confusing the subjects. I'm assuming Crawford has a positive value on BTV.
  2. mvp 78
    Crawford may be just one year removed from a really great season, but in general he's only been an average player at best. I'm not sure you can count on 2023 production going forward. 21 3.8 bWAR 22 2.7 bWAR 23 5.1 bWAR (career high 133 OPS+, 101 career OPS+) 24 2.7 bWAR

    According to FanGraphs, Castillo was only worth 18M this year, so he's underwater if that production stays the same. I think that's why BTV is projecting some regression leading to negative overall value for Castillo. If he leaves the friendly confines of SEA and head to a more hitter friendly stadium.

    Well, that's not what happened or do you mean in between contracts?

    If the world's oldest looking 51 year old who spent his whole life smoking packs and packs a day didn't "die suddenly" right after suspending Rose, I bet it all would have blown over at some point and Rose would have made amends. They made Giamatti into a saint and Rose was never let back into the club. The "they" includes Joe Castiglione who would end every season with a dumb poem that Giamatti once recited.

    The Red Sox have only won more recently than the hapless Bruins. I think it would take a plane crash for the Bruins to get passed the second round of the playoffs at this point.
  7. mvp 78
    Well in that case!

    What would you rather have: Verdugo, Downs, Wong King, Brito, Vasquez, Thorpe (used to acquire Clease), Higashioka

    Let's try not to go down any rabbit holes on this site everyone. Do it on your free time. Thanks.

    At that point, we could never discuss any future trade ever as we have access to no internal evaluations of any team for any player.

    It's why they shouldn't have added Price to the Mookie trade. It lessened the franchise altering return.

    In baseball, you have bases. In football, you have foots! Classic!!!
  14. mvp 78
    Maybe swap Mayer and Jhostynxon considering what happened when the later got to AA? IDK. Otherwise, very solid list and no complaints.
  15. mvp 78
    I will watch none of the games as I have no rooting interest.
  16. mvp 78
    Great, so no room for Mayer, Anthony or Campbell on this roster that wasn't good enough to get in the playoffs then?
  17. mvp 78
    None of them would be a permanent solution at DH, but the AB's have to go somewhere!

    With the Sox being pretty bad for the past 3 years, it's hard to really care if the Yanks win or not this year. It's not like the Sox have put up much of a fight. If they have to win one, let them win when the Sox are down in the dumps.

    A player will generally graduate from prospect status once he exhausts his MLB rookie status. Rookie status is exhausted once a player: (1) has more than 130 at-bats in the majors; (2) has pitched more than 50 innings in the majors; or (3) has been on an active major league roster for more than 45 days (not including time on the injured list). For example, Fitts has 20.2 innings, so would either need about 6 more starts to graduate or reach 45 days service time. Probably reaches the service time first. If Penrod is on the Opening Day roster, he would reach 45 days at the end of April.

    Since the reinstatement of the luxury tax/CBT in 2003, here are the years the Sox were under: 2003 2008 2009 2012 2013 2014 2017 2020 2021 2023 2024 This is the first time where they've been under for 4 out of 5 years.

    One of the main focuses of pitching development this year was adding velo. If Ingrassia was unable to add velo, it could be a red flag going forward. SoxProspects aren't always great at updating their scouting reports during the year so there could be a lag, but Ingrassia isn't a guy they were hyping up throughout the year either.
  22. mvp 78
    5-8M that another team would pick up is still savings for an owner that is hesitant about going over the CBT. Campbell Anthony Mayer Teel Meidroth
  23. mvp 78
    I wouldn't worry about replacing Masa with an external option considering the internal bats that will be supplementing the roster next year. I'd do a straight salary dump and eat half the contract.
  24. mvp 78
    😍

    It's probably his primary position going forward anyway considering the direction his defense is heading.
