  1. That doesn't mean they are only going to sign starters.
  2. They should consider kicking the tires on Rosario or Merrifield.
  3. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/11/red-sox-trade-rumors-alex-verdugo.html?utm_source=twitter @PeteAbe Craig Breslow readily acknowledged the Sox are getting calls on Alex Verdugo.
  4. McGuire's catching skills really dipped last season. I'm more worried about what happened to him than trying out Garver.
  5. MLBTradeRumors says 3/39 to the Rangers or Sox.
  6. Seems likely. The trade idea for Tatis is a pipedream. Maybe they try moving Xander and eating some salary?
  7. Tatis has a very reasonable contract. I don't know why SD would move him. I know they want to cut salary, but he's not the guy they should move.
  8. Rosier has 12 games played in AAA. Why would you count him?
  9. He was diagnosed with AFB back in 2011. It really hasn't held him back considerably.
  10. The options are (25 HR's and under 25% K, RHB, OF): Acuna, Betts, Julio Rodriguez and Tatis.
  11. Would SEA want to do that deal? They already have a pretty good SS.
  12. And you need 2 Catchers anyway? I don't see any reason not to pair Garver and Teel unless you see more value in pairing Teel and Wong. However, Wong's skills behind the plate are mainly based on his arm and Teel already has that part down. What's he going to learn from Wong there?
  13. Well, you said "played games."
  14. Or trade Wong?
  15. I'm not assuming the best case scenario at all. I have no idea what kind of Duvall stat you are looking at. Age 28: 157 G Age 29: 138 G Age 30: 41 G injured Age 31: 57 G COVID year Age 32: 146 G Age 33: 86 G Age 34: 92 G
  16. @SoxProspects The following players have elected minor league free agency. -Skylar Arias -Narciso Crook -Tyler Dearden -Tyler Esplin -Michael Gettys -Rio Gomez -Ronaldo Hernandez -Dominic LoBrutto -Oddanier Mosqueda -Brendan Nail -Aaron Perry -Tyreque Reed -Sterling Sharp -Bradley Zimmer
  17. Verdugo is proven to be an average (at best) OFer. Duran and Rafaela both have ceilings that are far higher than that. I'm not sure Abreu is that much of a drop off from Verdugo that you would substantially miss him.
  18. This attitude is why the Sox hired Crag instead of you.
  19. I don't want to trade the other guys.
  20. @MaxTGoodman Hal Steinbrenner: "We did not get to where we needed to be with run production last year. It was probably our biggest problem." Hiring a new hitting coach and focusing on fixing the #Yankees' offense will be a focus this winter. Asked to provide more specifics on what could change this winter, Hal Steinbrenner brought up bunting and how it's becoming a bigger part of the game again. "Aaron Boone doesn't think that the #Yankees are teaching players to bunt enough within player development."
  21. @MaxTGoodman Hal Steinbrenner: "I do believe that a team shouldn't need a $300 million payroll. The Rangers didn't, the Astros didn't. What you need is a good mix of veteran players and young players. We're going to get a bit younger."
  22. Too bad. Signing Gurriel isn't going to fix that problem for you.
  23. I just think DH is a better fit for Masa. He was a fulltime DH in Japan and he'll be less likely to wear down there in '24. When he was playing well, Masa was a force.
  24. I would trade him so that you could get something useful back like a starting 2B or as part of a package for a SP.
  25. His ISO from the past two seasons is .068 which is pretty close to Ozzie Smith's career rate. He's got Ozzie's bat with below average defense. Going back years ago and projecting him to regain nonexistent power is a fool's errand. Pass on that loser.
