  1. I think Sox are overloaded at LHB. If they needed to move a top level prospect, Mayer seemed like the best guy to move to me. I'd keep Teel and Anthony. Anthony has the highest ceiling. Teel has the highest floor.
  2. Only highlighting one college arm? Yikes.
  3. If only they had a guy like Tzu Wei Lin as depth though!
  4. Overdue for a healthy season or two?
  5. A blue chip SS who will need to move off position, has a platoon split and struggles with offspeed pitches. He could bring a nice return though.
  6. Depends on the return.
  7. Who is going to want oft injured Story AND unproductive Yoshida. Hard sell with those two. Easier to hold your nose and keep Story who can at least field competently.
  8. Maybe we need to come up with a TalkSox tracker. My vote: Anthony Mayer Teel Campbell Perales Bleis Cespedes Fitts Zanetello Yorke Arias Meidroth Sandlin Rodriguez Johanfran Paulino Castro Lugo Blaze Jhostynxon
  9. Duran CF, Hamilton 2B, O’Neill LF, Devers 3B, Wong C, Yoshida DH, Abreu RF, Smith 1B, Rafaela SS
  10. If Mayer is dealt for a starter, it's in the offseason. I don't see Breslow doing a blockbuster this month.
  11. Reverse splits for batters aren't really a career long trend. Matt Duffy was known as a THE reverse split guy, but his splits trended towards even over his career (714/681). For Wong, it's most likely a blip in the map as it is with most MLB hitters. With MLB pitchers, reverse splits can be notable because of pitch mix.
  12. IDK, Abreu did have a career reverse split through 2021! What if that continued?!?!
  13. The cool thing about Worcester is that it's like being in gloomy Pawtucket, but without having downtown Providence next door.
  14. Just trade them for cost controlled starters!
  15. I'm fine with trading Mayer. Hard to rely on Story for 2025 though. May need a good defensive SS to plop on the bench. Need to figure out what to do with Yoshida too. Eat salary if necessary.
  16. I don't know!!! They should have learned by now to just agree with me.
  17. He grew up playing in Houston. He's probably ok with it.
  18. The trend is a regular split if you looked at his current numbers.
  19. And what will certainly please the olds: @ChrisCotillo It has not been a smooth first impression for Vaughn Grissom in Boston so far. “I just want to play my game. If they like it, they like it. If they don’t, f*** it,” he said. “I’m here for a reason. I’m sure there’s a next guy up if they don’t like it." Grissom on his season: “It’s tough. But it could be worse. You have to trust the process. Everybody has their (bad) year. This is mine. In a way, it’s nice to get it out of the way, but it sucks. Not a lot of guys go through this game and don’t get hurt."
  20. Wingenter can go to AAA. They acquired him because he needed to be added to a 40 man, not an active roster.
  21. Regardless, Iggy was never in the org with Moncada and Guerra was still in the DSL at the time. Calling them "depth" together is awkward as hell.
  22. Iglesias - traded 2013 Moncada - signed 2015, traded 2016 Chavis - wasn't even out of A ball at the end of 2016 I'd take the list I put in as I only included guys in AA and above and they are actually close to being ready at the same time and in the organization at the same time. Tzu-Wei Lin wasn't even a realistic prospect until 2017 when Ben was long gone.
  23. 747 vs RHP 648 vs LHP By the end of the year, the MLB career reverse split will be gone if he keeps his current pace.
  24. You said "continues with his reverse splits" but this year he has normal splits. 22 AAA: 967 vs LHP 798 vs RHP I don't see him as a reverse split guy. At the very least, he's a guy you don't need to worry about platooning.
  25. Are we considering Jose Iglesias prospect era to be recent???????????????????????
