  1. Might not be fun to watch.
  2. @tylermilliken_ Here is where the Red Sox rank in MLB through 75 games. Batting Average: .254 - 5th OBP: .325 - 5th SLG: .418 - 4th OPS: .743 - 5th Runs Scored: 350 - 9th wRC+: 105 - 12th ERA: 3.45 - 5th Rotation ERA: 3.48 - 6th Bullpen ERA: 3.43 - 7th Strikeouts: 279 - 6th BAA: .233 - 13th Errors: 54 - Worst in MLB Defensive Runs Saved: 14 - 12th OAA: -9 - 24th
  3. He's really a backend arm. Who is he replacing?
  4. They are on the good blip right now. They'll be back at .500 soon enough.
  5. Mays had skills that would transcend time. Ruth did not. Bonds was great before the cream and clear, but was not at the Mays level.
  6. To take all of Yoshida's salary, you're trading a top level prospect IMO.
  7. Yes, the one chain rule was noted in Spring Training.
  8. Bello since coming back from the IL: 7 GS 36.1 IP 6.44 ERA 5.22 FIP 4.21 BB/9 846 OPS 1 QS 1 slammed glove
  9. I think it would be a shame if someone played him solely because they were justifying the trade. I think they'll be playing him because they believe in his upside. If the other high upside guys reach BOS before Grissom gets to show it, he may as well end up as a part timer or be the odd man out.
  10. Are we talking about Vaughn Grissom or Xander Bogaerts?
  11. You'd be eating Yoshida's salary either way most likely. I don't think there's a team out there that is going to take more than 60% of that contract.
  12. It wouldn't be all that surprising to see Grissom platoon with one of the LHB guys at 2B until he gets going.
  13. He is only 23 though. I don't think the Sox are writing him off. He's going to have every chance to succeed because a lot of the guys you have ahead of are flash in the pan Hamilton, can't hit lefties Enmanuel and AAAA Romy.
  14. Greatest of All Time.
  15. How?
  16. I'm not sure he can field any other IF position than 2B.
  17. It shows to me that there is no reason to push him to make BOS this season. Might as well wait for him to be more ready at some point next season.
  18. Grissom probably isn't a fulltime 2B a few years from now. Maybe a UTIL guy? Unfortunately, Kristian Campbell may surpass him in that role in a year or so as well.
  19. If you package Yoshida, you are basically giving the other player away for free. Fine if you are giving up on the season.
  20. First appearance in MLB Posey 235 OPS, good following season after 47 more games in AAA (so why call him up the year before???) Zunino 620 OPS, not good until 26 years old Grandal 863 OPS as second half call up at age 23 (would be 2nd half of next year for Teel which seems fine with me) Castro 573 OPS as second half call up at age 23 Wieters 753 OPS as early season call up at age 23, never really reached the heights expected of him especially first few seasons None of the guys you listed were really ready their age 22 season, which you want to push Teel to appear this year. Have him appear 2nd half of next year? Sure? That seems like a more realistic timetable considering the above datapoints. He also doesn't have the prospect ceiling of some of the players mentioned above (Wieters, Posey).
  21. @SPChrisHatfield Maybe the worst part of the Perales TJS: b/c he's on the 40-man roster, he's going to have burned 2 options by the time he's fully rehabbed (I'm assuming he's out for most of 2025). He has 2026 to get ready to contribute full time in 2027. 2 offseasons of a dead roster spot too.
  22. Bassitt's last 5 games: 30 IP 1.20 ERA 2.45 FIP
  23. It's his 4th year in the system and he doesn't even have 165 IP. Check please!!!
  24. Not based on his defense.
  25. Romy was good enough to be the benchwarmer on the 2023 ChiSox. He's a fill in that can play anywhere without being an embarrassment, but not someone you want playing everyday. Basically, he's a AAAA UTIL guy.
