  1. Maybe Joe thinks Story would get benched and Romy is the fulltime 2B?
  2. The trade request was too much for an aging player with a big contract. They aren't getting Mayer plus Tolle or Early for him. If there's a team out there that will do that, they are much closer to a WS window than this team is.
  3. They don't teach situational hitting anymore. They just teach exit velo and lifting the ball. That's all they know. Kyle Boddy said that it makes for bad baseball, but it's what the analytics guys want so it's what they teach.
  4. They didn't extend Houck or Crawford!
  5. Romy is still there. He's hanging out with Roman in the North End every night.
  6. Marte has a better wRC+ than every Sox IFer except for Contreras. His 234 BABIP is 70 points below his career norm. If you look at his Statcast page, he's really just been unlucky.
  7. I don't think any numbers have been reported. It probably wouldn't have been very high. He was clearly betting on himself, stupidly.
  8. Not too many people were upset with it at the time. It was considered an under market deal. The problem is that not every prospect works out, you need to give extensions to the guys you're really certain about. This was a guy who had such a broken swing that they had to revamp it a few months later. I don't think they needed to do Rafaela or Bello's extension either.
  9. Those 3 are among the 10 worst hitters in MLB right now. To have them all in the same lineup is a large part of why this team has been unsuccessful.
  10. He would have tried to and the ball would have ended up in the camera well.
  11. Yup, Duran '25: 11 DRS, -4 OAA in LF The range will get you every time.
  12. Rafaela is a 1 DRS in 200+ innings. That is not where Story is at right now.
  13. He's hitting the ball hard, just isn't hitting the ball in the air enough and has a lot of swing and miss now. He's still a decent prospect for now. Just isn't ready today.
  14. Masa being benched isn't rare the past few seasons even when he is hitting the ball well. If Brez doesn't like him, let him be free.
  15. TBR hitters are 26th in fWAR, 19th in runs scored
  16. Not sure if Bleis and Garcia would have made my Top 30 if voting went that far. YRod is probably high 20's to me. Haven't heard any reasons for Yophery's improvements this year.
  17. He has started off slowly before. Looks like he might be starting too heat up a little with an OPS over 1000 in May. His YTD batted ball data would have him hitting 1 HR at Fenway, but 9 in Philly. 🫠
  18. Still can't believe Brez got the heist of the century with this trade!!! Dat thicc surplus value!!! 😍
  19. The half empty is just looking at the guys in the trainers room and saying maybe this isn't the year even if they do try to make a run.
  20. Watch them do it just to platoon Mayer......................
