  1. Last night exit velo and distance for Meidroth: 99 mph 60' forceout 98 mph 383' double 93 mph 15' groundout 86 mph 12' single 78 mph 4' groundout 76 mph 236' double 9 of the top 10 exit velos in the game went for hits with 6 XBH. Chase was not among them.
  2. I guess they need to make Slaten a starter.
  3. 21 2.5 bWAR 22 2.5 bWAR 23 2.3 bWAR 24 1.1 bWAR (on track for almost 3 bWAR) I'd say he's closer to 2.5 bWAR than 2.
  4. Their circumstances are different and they are different pitchers. Those pitchers noted are BETTER than Pivetta and they got less years than some expect Pivetta to for some reason. I was just responding to the idea that pitchers in their 30's typically get contracts longer than 2 years.
  5. For the past 4 years, he's been a 2-2.5 pitcher. I think that's more relevant that him trying to figure out MLB at age 24. Including 24, he's averaging 2.1 bWAR for the last 4 years if he dropped dead today.
  6. His issue is that if he can't really punish pitchers with power, they will just go after him in MLB. Why throw any pitch outside of the zone? He'll never make them pay. I would love to see a profile like his return to MLB, but I'm not sure it can work out.
  7. He's been good since he developed the sweeper last season. I don't know if he can stay healthy because that's a question I have with every pitcher now. Since 5/28/23: 0.953 WHIP
  8. Grissom is being paid the minimum. Dalbec is DFA/waiver candidate. Cooper is DFA/waiver candidate. Reyes was sent to AAA then traded. Valdez is a AAA guy and did not receive an extension. That's who you're comparing Rafaela's production with?
  9. Snell Stroman Wacha Kershaw Maeda Lesser than? Manaea, Woodruff (injury), Fedde, Martinez
  10. Sox are 17th in hitter fWAR and have a 99 wRC+. His place in Sox standings doesn't get me excited.
  11. Starters over 30 that got more than 2 years last season: Nola, ERod, Gray and Lugo. 9 starters 30 and over got exactly 2 years.
  12. Only 4 starters got that many years last offseason. Not seeing that in the cards for a guy who is a perennial 4/5 starter.
  13. That's the Wacha contract. Seems ok? IDK.
  14. They are a .500 club without Casas for sure. Maybe they'd be above .500 if he was around.
  15. The trade was whatever if you ignore the money aspect. Going over the CBT in that year was inexcusable and largely due to that trade.
  16. Wrong. It impacted the 2023 draft pick compensation for the QO's.
  17. .500 is back on the menu boys!
  18. Salvaged? Maybe. It was still a bad trade as it pushed them over the CBT.
  19. He was in competition for a Padres rotation spot last season, but ended up staying in AAA where he had a 8.55 ERA. Too many fish tacos probably. I believe he's working through injuries this season.
  20. Would probably need to be called up to Salem first IMO.
  21. Rafaela: 1st - errors 1st - double plays as OFer 2nd - errors as CFer 3rd - sac flies 3rd - sac hits 5th - caught stealing
  22. The lineup would look so much better with Casas in it.
  23. No, they own a bunch of real estate around the stadium that they rent to unrelated third parties that goes into the valuation of the Sox and the money the team earns. It has nothing to do with the Sox renting Fenway to themselves.
  24. No, his tax hit is 46M per year through 2033. The cash paid out is different.
