Hasn't played much SS so I was just sticking him at 2B. Can't say I've seen a memorable Rockies game in a while.
-
One thing is for certain, the Sox are playing so well that it keeps some goobers away.
-
I don't think a backend starter gets you much. We had high hopes for Pivetta going into the season considering his turnaround last year, but that seems to be out the window at this point. Not much meat left on the bone. He's a very low ceiling guy. Martin's skillset is much more valuable to teams that are in contention. Fortunately for the Sox, they are in contention this year so I don't think either will be traded if the Sox continue their current trajectory.

On the flip side, Yorke has stayed hot and has had a hit n 14 of 16 games for WOO with a 991 OPS.
-
Lugo falling back to earth in AAA. 192 AVG 742 OPS
-
He said that on June 1. They went 6-6 for the first 12 games after he said that. If it was well timed, they wouldn't have waited 2 f***ing weeks to go on a run IMO.

Shoe betcha!
-
I bet the Sox could get Brendan Rodgers from the Rockies if they wanted and just used him as a platoon guy.

Ballpark Factors for Fenway: RHB HR - 19th RHB 2B - 7th RHB H - 3rd LHB HR - 16th LHB 2B - 1st LHB H -3rd It's a park to get on base and score runs, but it's not a launching pad for dingers. Especially not a launching pad for homers.

The cash payments don't mattter. What matters is the AAV that hits the luxury tax threshold (9 AAV).
-
Stanton back to the IL with hammy. Home sweet home for him.
-
Jays top hitting prospect Orelvis Martinez was suspended for 80 games (PED) 48 hours after making his MLB debut.
-
They are paying Bello 9 AAV PRE ARB!!!! Christopher Sanchez just signed an extension for 4/22.5 (two option years after). They aren't the same pitcher, but that's what a reasonable extension looks. I liked the idea of extending Bello and Rafaela, but it was too much money for a team that is overly mindful of its budget.
-
Pivetta since coming back from the IL:. 9 GS (3 QS) 46.2 IP 4.82 ERA 4.92 FIP 791 OPS He has not been good and would not fetch much of a return.
-
Allen Castro
-
Fastball/Slider guy. Most likely back end or bullpen guy.
-
Not sure if the hype got to him. They've also changed his pitch mix. It's fine for us to not appropriate grade him, but a big miss for the Sox and his extension IMO.
-
On Giolito, there is a 14M club option for 2026 if he pitches under 140 innings next season and a mutual 19M option if he pitches over. -
2 prospects for O'Neilll? A team would have to be pretty hard up for him. Also, the Sox really enjoy having his bat in the lineup. Jansen and Martin combined have a much higher trade value than O'Neilll IMO, Pivetta too.

Craig Breslow hired as Head Of Baseball Operations

CIN is the best MLB park for LHB to hit dingers. Maybe he can get going here? -
Half of a year of Alonso should be reasonable. Aside from Sandlin, I don't think I'd give up a top 10 prospect in a trade for him.
-
For a 4th starter? Sure.
-
Platooning them already???
-
I want a full 26 man roster turnover every 12 months with this current squad, but will settle for Bello wearing a different uniform next season.
-
I can't imagine Wikelman's value is still that high after this year.
