  1. When they have 4 OFers AND Masa, Romy isn't platooning for Abreu. Why would they ever throw him out to RF in Fenway? Doesn't make sense. The guy they'd platoon Abreu with (if they had to) is Eaton.
  2. Yes, Hamilton/Romy is the platoon. Hamilton just gets most of the PA's as he faces RHP.
  3. Not ideal as I don't want Romy platooning at 3b. Maybe they'll be platooning Donovan?
  4. Nobody is snorting coke of alligators this weekend... maybe frozen iguanas. Just stressed out about some work stuff because of the "severe" cold.
  5. It's January 30th! Promote Arias? He didn't even OPS 700 in AA. What would promoting him further do? KC struggled to hit AAA pitching in '24 and is a terrible 2b. If he's in the picture, I don't think it looks good for 2026. The bottom half of the lineup would be KC/Marcelo/Narvaez/Rafaela. There's upside, but a low floor.
  6. The risk to Bregman is the Sox eat half the contract and trade him with two years left or something similar. He gets his money, but has to upend his life again. Sox putting that line in the sand doesn't make much sense if others around the league are providing them. Why disadvantage yourself?
  7. I haven't decided yet. It could get colder here than it has been since 2010. 🥶
  8. Per Merriam Webster, the first definition, not the second.
  9. By Monday, I will have forgotten that we've even spoken about the guy.
  10. Please don't simply handwave away Breslow's inability to obtain a 2b or 3b due to budget constraints. That's demeaning.
  11. You're describing half of our posters most likely. Of course it's complimentary!
  12. I think they may be moving him to the OF because his defense is pretty bad. His power is LEGIT though. I think that's what gets him to the bigs.
  13. It's irrational to think Cora is finalizing any deals for the FO right now.
  14. The reaction was "where are the other trades" not "bad trade."
  15. It's because of the money paid out net with projected WAR. Younger players make less money and will exceed the value they are paid. Older players tend to not recoup their contracts.
  16. I think we are beyond Plan B, but there's no way Cora is closing any deal. That's just myth making.
  17. Neither did Arias and we have posters on here projecting him as a starter. Keith Law has him as a top 20 prospect and lauds his bat.
  18. Arroyo is one year older than Arias and MASHED in high A. I don't believe his defense is as good though.
  19. The Drew Pomeranz trade was hated by a certain segment of the population.
