Sunk cost isn't a reason to play someone. -
Round 6: Blake Aita, RHP @ggeiss_mlb Blake Aita some who has “stuff.” Another big metric pitcher. FB 89-91 t94 with his spin rates and armside run. Low 80’s sweeper with 3000+ RPMs and massive horizontal break. Mid 80’s cutter as well. The command is something he’ll need to work on moving forward.

Round 5: Brandon Clarke, LHP 6'4", 99mph, shaky command, secondary stuff needs work
-
Round 4: Zach Ehrhard - OF, RH @RotoClegg Boston takes Zach Ehrhard at 115. OF from Oklahoma State. Hit .331/.458/.627 with 14 HR & 25 2B tho year. Elite contact profile: 87% contact/93% in-zone w/sub 20% chase Respectable EVs: 90 mph average/104 mph 90th. Hits the ball at ideal angles.

On Neely: @redsoxstats In the post season last month, he threw 24 innings with 15 hits allowed, 5 walks, and 38 strikeouts. 92-94 T97, with yet again, lower release height and lots of ride and movement.

Sox take two pitchers in the first 3 rounds of the draft?!?!?! That hadn't been done since 2016 when they drafted Groome. -
@EdHand89 Notes on the Red Sox third round pick, RHP Brandon Neely. -U of F Gator -Fastball is his best pitch currently. Tops at 96-97 but mostly lives around 93 mph. Misses bats due to ride. -Best secondary pitch is his slider, also throws a changeup + curveball. -Worked mostly out of the pen in college but there are scouts who believe he has the pitch repertoire to be a backend starter.

I already have an SCM summoning doll at home. I think having more than one TalkSox artifact would get me kicked out of the house.

Yes, dicking around with Lester was one thing. When you have a true franchise player like Betts, you do NOT let that guy walk out that door.

2020 - under CBT 2021 - under CBT 2022 - oops went over thanks to Bloom's JBJ trade 2023 - under CBT 2024 - probably under CBT Two decades of dominance... no longer.
-
Yes on both counts.
-
What the hell?
-
Sale is currently throwing at 5.1 his career low. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/player-scroll?player_id=519242#release_points The two players are the same height.

Incorrect. I rarely log in on the weekend.

You could try complaining about Bochy's support of famed PED users Ken Caminiti and Barry Bonds while he managed both at the height of their powers.

Feel free to pick those nits if you want.

At the time, there were lots of reports about his power outage and questions on how much he could provide. I believe Law stated that he had a decent line drive swing and that he'd be fine overall, but was just in need of a new position. The greatest concern was his bad defense at SS.
-
He was like the 4th ranked Braves prospect. A decent prospect for the deal. I'm not saying he was "ok" overall, just ok in terms of the deal. At the time of the deal, he would have been ranked somewhere in the Sox top 10. Maybe higher than Fitts?
-
Mayer is a higher rated prospect now than Grissom ever was.
-
^^^
-
He shouldn't own professional sports teams anymore if that would give him pause.
-
Probably. Lifetime ban for Verdugo please.
-
Who cares about the dead money if it's still not a top 10 payroll? Oh, but here's one bad deal. That means Henry will spend!
