    Or trade Wong?

    I'm not assuming the best case scenario at all. I have no idea what kind of Duvall stat you are looking at. Age 28: 157 G Age 29: 138 G Age 30: 41 G injured Age 31: 57 G COVID year Age 32: 146 G Age 33: 86 G Age 34: 92 G

    Verdugo is proven to be an average (at best) OFer. Duran and Rafaela both have ceilings that are far higher than that. I'm not sure Abreu is that much of a drop off from Verdugo that you would substantially miss him.
  5. mvp 78
    This attitude is why the Sox hired Crag instead of you.
  6. mvp 78
    I don't want to trade the other guys.

    @MaxTGoodman Hal Steinbrenner: "We did not get to where we needed to be with run production last year. It was probably our biggest problem." Hiring a new hitting coach and focusing on fixing the #Yankees' offense will be a focus this winter. Asked to provide more specifics on what could change this winter, Hal Steinbrenner brought up bunting and how it's becoming a bigger part of the game again. "Aaron Boone doesn't think that the #Yankees are teaching players to bunt enough within player development."

    @MaxTGoodman Hal Steinbrenner: "I do believe that a team shouldn't need a $300 million payroll. The Rangers didn't, the Astros didn't. What you need is a good mix of veteran players and young players. We're going to get a bit younger."
  9. mvp 78
    Too bad. Signing Gurriel isn't going to fix that problem for you.

    I just think DH is a better fit for Masa. He was a fulltime DH in Japan and he'll be less likely to wear down there in '24. When he was playing well, Masa was a force.
  11. mvp 78
    I would trade him so that you could get something useful back like a starting 2B or as part of a package for a SP.
  12. mvp 78
    His ISO from the past two seasons is .068 which is pretty close to Ozzie Smith's career rate. He's got Ozzie's bat with below average defense. Going back years ago and projecting him to regain nonexistent power is a fool's errand. Pass on that loser.

    There are a TON of options in FA so Nick Pivetta's trade value would be low. There aren't a ton of FA options in FA at OF so Verdugo's trade value could be overinflated. Sell! Sell! Sell!
  15. mvp 78
    Yeah, I just don't see the point in adding another pitcher much worse than Bello if they really want to compete. Another guy down i the Pivetta/Houck/Crawford range just seems like a waste to me too.
  16. mvp 78
    I think they do a decent job with MLB guys, but the MiLB guys are just complete shots in the dark. I'm not sure where they get those values from.
  17. mvp 78
    I'd rather trade him for something now and make room for the younger OFers than lose him for nothing next offseason. I don't think Mr 1.8 fWAR Verdugo is worth holding a spot for.
  18. mvp 78
    IDK. I think either Teel is undervalued or Yorke is overvalued because they are approximately the same player on there. I wouldn't trade Teel for some other team's Nick Yorke.
  19. mvp 78
    He's Nick Pivetta with a higher ceiling. I guess his xFIP was pretty decent prior to last year, but I just think his peripherals are dogshit. Can you trust him to be more than a #4? That's not really what the Sox need.
  20. mvp 78
    Rhys Hoskins and Teoscar didn't get offered a QO. What this shows me is that I highly doubt Alex Verdugo will get offered one either next season. His overall profile is similar to those two guys in value. May as well trade him.
  21. mvp 78
    I'd trade Mayer before I'd trade Anthony or Teel.
  22. mvp 78
    I just meant the part about moving up in the Cardinals system.
  23. mvp 78
    Well, we don't really know what the offseason budget is. If it's 50M, then there is no "rest" for Duvall.
  24. mvp 78
    For Merrifield, bref lists the most similar batter as Bill Mueller. As Fred Durst says, you know what time it is...
  25. mvp 78
    Makes no sense if he was already being considered for a top position weeks after being fired.
