    Signing Bregman for 2b makes little sense to me. If they are signing him to have him take over at 3b it makes much more sense.

    San Diego
  3. mvp 78
    He had TJS twice. Monty had TJS. He may get it a second time as well. Don't act like Monty's never missed time.
  4. mvp 78
    I didn't remember the first TJS. I think one year may be ok with him. I would not sign him for multiple. No way.
  5. mvp 78
    Montgomery had his first TJS in 2018. Maybe his arm is at the end of its life (considering how poorly he pitched last season) and needs a second TJS?
  6. mvp 78
    Is Buehler really oft injured or is it just one injury (TJS)?
  7. mvp 78
    Helps when the Rays are actually. paying them for once.
  8. mvp 78
    I really don't think they are going to pull the trigger on enough moves to really get the fanbase back this offseason. It's going to take a few offseasons of them being committed and the Sox making the playoffs more often than not.
  9. mvp 78
    I'm not sold that Buehler is back. I'm not sold that Montgomery would actually be better than Buehler though. Monty was garbo last season. For one season, give me Buehler. If it's not working out, you can put him in the pen. Montgomery in the pen offers you zilch.
  10. mvp 78
    Maybe the Sox would rather keep Mayer?

    What is going on in Tampa is pretty laughable. I'd feel bad for the Rays fans, but they were going to build the new stadium right next to the old one and still not draw anybody. Dave Stewart needs to buy them ASAP.

    I think we have a lot of 3/4/5 types in the org. We don't have guys to slot in at the top.
  13. mvp 78
    Martin and Jansen are still available too. I'd rather they come back than Pivetta.
  14. mvp 78
    It was his age 37 season. He pitched 164 innings the year before that. That's more than he pitched the previous 3 years combined. Arms have a limited amount of bullets in them. Corey snuck in an additional 250 productive innings after surgery and then was toast. His 2022 season was only worth 0.8 bWAR. If you look at his 2022 Statcast, his "stuff" looked nothing like what it was prior to surgery in 2018. He no longer had a valuable fastball or breaking ball. His whiff and k rates fell off a cliff. 19th percentile xBA. 26th percentile xSLG. He was on his way out due to the surgery and age.
  15. mvp 78
    Pivetta is reliable until he's no longer reliable. We saw that with Giolito. Pivetta's ceiling is a 3 at his best? He pitches more often like a decent 4 and a 5 for a good rotation. Why spend large on that?
  16. mvp 78
    I have clearly forgotten the ballad of Rusney Castillo.
  17. mvp 78
    Hugh, it's on you to show your work for this.
  18. mvp 78
    The first one MIGHT have a high likelihood of being overcome, the second one does NOT have a high likelihood. There's a long list of the 2nd TJS being a career ender or at least a huge career diminisher. It's just not the 80-90% success story that Hugh was stating.
  19. mvp 78
    Is he going to be able to have his velo and spin rates for 600-800 innings or just a 10 inning stretch when the adrenaline is pumping for a WS? If he pitches great for six months to start this year and them blows his arm out again for a 3rd time, it's not a success story. He needs to come back and pitch well for a few years at least for it to be considered full performance.
  20. mvp 78
    Not after the second one they don't.
  21. mvp 78
    The old ownership didn't want to spend any money. The new ownership didn't fully take over until last August. They are either currently working on extensions or have cash flow issues IMO. Maybe they are just deeply unserious people? Who knows?
  22. mvp 78
    Needs to be bullied harder.
  23. mvp 78
    I will be unmoved by a Teoscar or Bregman signing.
  24. mvp 78
    Well, maybe all the other teams will run out of money and the Burnes market will dry up?
  25. mvp 78
    Hell yeah brother!
