He shouldn’t take up a roster spot in the offseason that could prevent any potential move that could improve the MLB team.
-
Not until after the WS.
-
You said he was midpack based on all Sox over a certain PA threshold so you were comparing him to other positions which weren't relevant.
-
Bobby Dalbec is 5 years older than Manzardo.
-
You can't compare the OPS of a 1B with the OPS of a 2B.
-
Eovaldi had an injury and still was a year removed from a 5.7 fWAR season. Paxton's resume isn't that.
-
Bloom has tried to trade Dalbec for the past 12 months. He should have dumped him on another team by now.
-
8.53 ERA, actually.
-
Groome has an 8.53 ERA in AAA and requires a 40 man roster spot (7+ BB/9). I think I may rather have Rosier.
-
Story has been bad, but he plays very good defense at a premium position. Dalbec has been bad and plays bad defense at 1B.
-
Which ones? When I looked at the trade deadline, it didn't look like the pitchers that would have helped us would have been traded for the SS prospects that we had.
-
Lawler was the Sox initial target, but Mayer was perceived to be the number 1 pick. Either way, it's a crapshoot. Not sure why Lawlar had to be brought up.
-
If he's not traded prior to the Rule 5 draft, he needs to be waived. He has no place here.
-
It depends. There are some guys that are worth 1/20 and you'd gladly have them.
-
Hard to put Mata in the pen RIGHT NOW when he's injured.
-
There are too many invasive species across the world as it is. Pass.
-
The average age of a player in AA is 24. I don't think Rosier or Ferguson will amount to anything, but I wouldn't say any prospect in AA who is 24 is an automatic beer leaguer.
-
Are you pushing Sale to the pen or trading him?
-
Murphy is a bullpen guy only. They wouldn't move him back to the rotation. Drohan has a lot of work to do to get to BOS. Wikelman may be closer than he is. Perales still is far away IMO. I wouldn't really count on those 3 to contribute at all next season. They need 2 starters this season IF they want to make a run at the playoffs. Whitlock needs to be put in the pen. They can't count on Sale to pitch 30+ starts.
-
That will happen if the Sox only bring in one starter. If that's the case and they are still relying on Sale as a fulltime starter, it will be another rough season for the Sox.
-
At this point, I don't think you offer him a QO. He's putting up worse numbers than 2022 Wacha and they didn't offer Wacha a QO. 1st half Paxton gets a QO. 2nd half Paxton is getting sent to FA.
-
Cool!
-
The hit rate sucks for all MLB draft picks. The issue is that pitchers are a much volatile commodity as they have a higher injury risk even if you hit on the pick.
-
Mata isn't a starter. He has no options left. I'm not sure they can even have him on the roster next season so I think he's dealt this winter. FA Trade Bello Sale Houck/Crawford
-
Yes, until he can make the big FA acquisition (Story/Masa weren't that) or make the big trade, I won't believe that he can get it done. For now, he's just the guy who can build up a farm and put a .500ish ballclub on the field.
