  1. They didn't give him a shot! Pulled the plug like on him like a 105 year old great grandma! 😭
  2. They'd have to trade for the 25th pick in the '27 draft if they did so. For now, Brez is going to keep rollin' like Fred Durst.
  3. A RHB that can play 1b, 2b and 3b. We wouldn't need one of those.
  4. They paid good money for him to give up that dinger in the Bronx.
  5. Wait, looks like they already had 9 bullpen arms. Whitlock should be coming back and Bennett needs a spot anyway.
  6. Joe la Sorsa was optioned to AAA. Short bullpen for the Sox this series.
  7. Harrison 1.9 fWAR (14th) traded away Gray 0.8 fWAR (78th) traded assets for
  8. Too many catchers? Mayer? Move one of the IFers? Reportedly not injury related.
  9. Gibson '69-'73 after the mound was lowered: (per Season) 2.69 ERA, 265 IP, 215 K, 80 BB, 1.143 WHIP, 137 ERA+ Tolle: (prorated to 32 GS) 2.66 ERA, 189.1 IP, 204 K, 52 BB, 0.972 WHIP, 177 ERA+
  10. He was struggling with 2nd grade math and was moved up to 3rd grade math. Why is he struggling with 3rd grade math? 👨‍🦯 Marcelo needs to go back and master 2nd grade math.
  11. Doesn't seem like he's learning it! Seems like he needs to get success against AAA offspeed pitching first!
  12. Couldn't hit offspeed pitching. Couldn't hit LHP. He's a platoon hitter who can only hit fastballs. How's he going to get better in MLB? 170 AB's in AAA. You think that's enough? 818 OPS isn't really banging down the door IMO. He's showed all year long that he's not ready. You just saying "well the numbers showed he was ready and it was a good decision" doesn't make it so.
  13. I just don't want them to pass up really good offers at the trade deadline like they've done in the past. If they are still 5+ games below .500 or whatever at that point, just sell. Blow it up. If you get a crazy offer for WC40, trade him. Sonny? Gone. Chappy? Gone. Deal Masa and eat 75% of the contract.
  14. Brannon should be @drewski6 's favorite player.
  15. Personally, I'd send him down sooner so that he'd have a chance to come back later in the year. If they wait too long, Mayer probably wouldn't make it back until mid September after AAA is done.
  16. I think people get excited to see guys called up because you just want to see what it will look like at the MLB level. With Mayer, there wasn't a real long look at any level and it's not like he was busting down the door anyway.
  17. 245 is probably a lot closer than his listed 210 on MiLB.com. He's a well built dude. He's always had light tower power. Struggled with injuries due to being behind the plate.
  18. They have had guys on the 40 man roster all season long they could have brought up. This team is out of contention. They are closer to last place in AL than a WC. Do what's right for the team. Just swap out Mayer with Cheng and move on with the season.
  19. It should if the guy doesn't have a long contract and the Red Sox stink this year and they want to be good in future years.
  20. We've already seen Devers be great at Fenway and know SF is a terrible hitters park. Marte is already in a hitters park. Bichette wasn't a great fit for Fenway because of his swing. Wrigley isn't a great place for RHB and Breggie is still pulling the ball like he did at Fenway (much higher away OPS). I think his numbers pick up eventually. He may not go on a tear like he did early in '25 though.
  21. The knock on him going into 2025 was that he struggled against offspeed pitching. Vs MLB Offspeed Pitching 2025 17.3% of pitches, 125 BA, 292 SLG, 214 wOBA 2026 27.7% of pitches, 116 BA, 140 SLG, 163 wOBA He just wasn't ready for the pitching from day one.
