  1. Yes, the one chain rule was noted in Spring Training.
  2. 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
  3. 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.
  4. Are we talking about Vaughn Grissom or Xander Bogaerts?
  5. 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.
  6. It wouldn't be all that surprising to see Grissom platoon with one of the LHB guys at 2B until he gets going.
  7. 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.
  8. Greatest of All Time.
  9. How?
  10. I'm not sure he can field any other IF position than 2B.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. If you package Yoshida, you are basically giving the other player away for free. Fine if you are giving up on the season.
  14. 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).
  15. @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.
  16. Bassitt's last 5 games: 30 IP 1.20 ERA 2.45 FIP
  17. It's his 4th year in the system and he doesn't even have 165 IP. Check please!!!
  18. Not based on his defense.
  19. 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.
  20. He was a slight disappointment last year and hasn't found his footing this year due to injuries. I'm not throwing the baby out with the bath water just yet. He still has time to earn some of that contract back. He's been better than Hanley, Pablo, Rusney, Crawford and Sale extension.
  21. Being an MLB catcher is MUCH MORE than just hitting.
  22. Who cares? Ship him out of town if he's not looking good.
  23. They should have found a better backup 1B/3B IMO. Justin Turner hasn't been great, but I think we all would have been much happier with him instead of Bobby and Garrett Cooper.
  24. He's apparently taking next year off, so he can use all his brainpower now.
  25. He needs to borrow Cutter Coffey's bat.
