  1. Then don't complain when the Sox are missing a big bat in the middle of the lineup. 🫠
  2. I don't think moon is specifically calling out that one pick. Witherspoon fell in the draft so he may in fact have been best player available.
  3. Well, based on the almighty years of control...
  4. Franklin Arias will be a starting All Star SS by then!
  5. And Breslow hasn't been ok with what the ask has been for Paredes. That's why I think they aren't getting a deal pushed over the finish line.
  6. You know the sickos here won't stick to that.
  7. That's every single high scoring team, even the Yanks and Dodgers.
  8. Well, I don't think that's going to happen at this point.
  9. Yup and it's way better than what the Sox had last year or '24 or '23.
  10. Hoerner has been above 100 OPS+ every season since 2021. Last season, the Sox OPS'd only 680 at 2b. He should easily clear that by 30 points.
  11. Where did he throw his teammates under the bus? I'm not disagreeing that he refused to play 1b or acted like a diva.
  12. They scored 786 last year. No way do they drop 200 runs even if IKF is a fulltime starter. So much would have to go wrong for them to get there.
  13. I still like the Gray trade, but I'm probably the most overly optimistic guy on Gray here. Fitts was close to his ceiling in this org and didn't develop the way Tolle or Early did. Maybe the Cards can get more out of him. Clarke barely pitched last season and he seems like more of a bullpen arm to me than a starter. I didn't have a problem with the trade. If Breslow wanted, he could still manufacture a trade of prospects to acquire Paredes or someone else. I think he just might not want to for some reason.
  14. I agree. Why sell your players in a deal you don't agree with. It makes more sense to hold onto Duran/Abreu than to give them up in a bad deal. An injury may happen and you'll be glad to have them rather than a mediocre replacement somewhere else.
  15. Provide a quote. Provide a hit piece from the Globe. Anything aside from your biased assertions against someone you see as a "man-child." The only thing anyone complained about was he wore headphones in the clubhouse and told the CBO to do his job with the roster. We're all here everyday wishing Breslow would fix the roster. He was right.
  16. I'm clearly not inside Breslow's head, but a pivot from Bregman to Ranger really didn't fix the roster issues. It makes the pitching much better, but none of us really see the path forward for the IF. It looks no different than the question marks we've seen since '23.
  17. If they were willing to add via FA, it would be less of a problem IMO.
  18. If they cut Masa, they can sign Marcell Ozuna.
  19. The past two drafts under Breslow: '24 14 pitchers, 6 hitters '25 14 pitchers, 6 hitters Relying on DSL guys to fill up your MLB roster doesn't work as you have a higher success rate from the draft than from DSL.
  20. It was 7 years of rebuilding now? Time flies I guess. Guys like Sandlin are fungible. He was famed for having "great stuff" but could strike anyone out. He got hit around a lot and really struggled going deep into games. When they put him into the pen, it was ugly. His fastball and slider got rocked. They aren't going to hold onto every prospect. They just can't. There aren't enough innings in AAA to develop these guys. They need to know who to hold onto and who to move before their value drops off a cliff.
