    The hatred has had an extended lifetime because (a) it was successful and ( it lasted for a full season before anyone got wise to it. The Pedroia watch incident was squashed quickly and everyone moved on. If people found out that there was an organizational push for Apple watches to be used during games and that the Sox had been doing so for years, it would have been a much bigger deal. It's why the video guy (JT Watkins) got a stiffer sentence, because of the duration. Good thing he ended up with a softer landing and that he's out in LA with his buddy JD for a nice reunion this year.

    A lifetime of HYUCKS and AW SHUCKS on TWIB.

    Last DAMN place! Maybe get like the 12th pick in the draft which would be worse than last year.
  4. mvp 78
    Too high. They should be closer to Kansas/Fresno State.

    2023 Sox Runs Scored 754 Runs Allowed 754 xW/L: 81-81 Perfectly balanced as all things should be.

    He's already in AA. If he plays out of his mind next season like we've seen from some AA guys, it's not out of the realm of possibility. I think Teel and Anthony are most likely early/mid 2025 guys.

    I don't mind bringing Duvall back if he stays in a corner OF spot or fills in at 1b (he played there earlier in his career). He doesn't have a crazy platoon split, but should be a cheap option. If not Duvall, someone similar.

    I can't believe Cora didn't get more out of the Sox in 2020!

    Casas had a prospect pedigree that Abreu doesn't have. Most people could project what Casas would do in 2023. Abreu is still a bit of an unknown for 2024. It's not like he's really torn up the minors. He had a crazy hot stretch at the end of the summer in AAA, but was just ok before then.
  10. mvp 78
    Anthony or Abreu? Abreu didn't have tremendous splits this year or last. I think he's ok enough against LHP where he's not going to kill you. If you have an obvious weakside platoon bat you're trying to squeeze into the lineup then maybe.
  11. mvp 78
    If he sticks around and pitches well through 2015, good chance that the Sox don't get the #12 pick in the 2016 draft and miss out on Jay Groome.
  12. mvp 78
    Henry loves Cora. I don't think he's going anywhere. If anything, he's getting a promotion.
  13. mvp 78
    Wilyer Abrey: 475 BABIP

    Abreu is NOT a 900 OPS guy IMO. I'm not sure he's a consistent 800 OPS guy. He can get on base and he is a good fielder at all 3 OF positions. There's some value there.
  15. mvp 78
    Exceed? Not sure. I don't even know if he's a starter. I think he's a 4th OFer long term. I think he can be a productive OFer and I like him a lot. He's just a placeholder in RF until Anthony shows up IMO.

    Alfaro's carrying tool was supposed to be his bat. Not sure what Scott's is.
  17. mvp 78
    I would protect: Wikelman Perales Gambrell Drohan They are all MLB starting pitcher upside guys. I would consider protecting: Bonaci Scott Bonaci is going to the AFL. It'll be interesting to see which position he focuses on. Scott is a good player, but I'm not sure they trust him as the 3rd catcher/bench 1B. His defense is just ok and still a work in progress.
  18. mvp 78
    Kim Ng's contract with the Marlins concludes at the end of the 2023 season as well. I've heard her name recently on the wind.
  19. mvp 78
    I'd move Scott down to the possibles/bubble section.
  20. mvp 78
    Why discount his 2022 numbers? It's probably more likely that he'd repeat the most recent season that he would repeat a short stretch from 2020.
  21. mvp 78
    They probably keep Mata through Spring Training and see if his arm is playing up in a relief role.
  22. mvp 78
    If the new CBO is from outside the organization, there are names that could be brought in that none of us have on our radar.
  23. mvp 78
    Verdugo has maxed out as a 2 fWAR guy. He's good, but if that defense takes a step back, it gets pretty ugly. The 100 wRC+ out of him is a big letdown, but it's probably closer to what our expectations should have been.
  24. mvp 78
    DH/backup 1B profile. Big platoon split. I think he's still a top 60 guy, but I see why he fell.
  25. mvp 78
    DFA Yoshida
