    And it's not necessarily just "trading the big names," but also trading a bunch of the inventory down on the farm. When you do that, you run into situation like BOS had in 21-23 where you just run out of replacement options and have big holes in your lineup (Jack Lopez, Yairo Munoz, Danny Santana, Franchy, Abraham Almonte, Yolmer Sanchez, etc.).

    He was a 3rd round pick. Had a lot of injuries in college and ended '21 on IL. Surgery prevented him from pitching last season. Gambrell was also the PTBNL, so he may have just been an afterthought? Has back of the rotation upside.

    @tylermilliken_ Kyle Teel since his promotion to High-A: 7 Games - 35 PA .414/.514/.483/.997 (12-for-29) 2 2B 7 RBI 6/5 K/BB
  4. mvp 78
    681 OPS since 5/3.

    Yeah, you can't bring a guy in A ball up to play in MLB.
  6. mvp 78
    Top prospects traded per the above: Lee O'Hoppe Vierling Brown Romero The rest were outside their top 20 on the rankings I looked at (FanGraphs and Baseball America).

    I think they won't go full robo ump, but a challenge system where the manager gets a few calls to challenge each game.

    It was echoing in my brain because you keep saying that.

    After getting 8 days off, Lorenzen's next start: 3.1 Inn 1K 1BB 8H 6ER Maybe they should have saved some bullets for a guy who hasn't been a fulltime starter?
  10. mvp 78
    Moniak wasn't a top 20 prospect for them in 2022 per FanGraphs. He was highly ranked back in 2017 or whatever, but his ranking had dropped before that trade.

    Except that owners get more revenue if when the team makes a playoff run. Is it the 40M to minimize the gap between the Phillies and the Sox? IDK.

    It's tough when you have to play catch up. It's even tougher when you fall behind multiple teams. They need two of the following to drop out of it: SEA, TOR, HOU. After a stretch of playing the Nats, KC and sweeping the Yanks, they are still 3 games back.

    It was in front of it, just WELL in front of it.

    Career high 31.3% k rate for JD this year. He's looking ok right now, but I don't know how long he'll be able to keep it up. Home OPS at LAD: 753 604 OPS in Aug and time on the IL.

    "Past on Yoshida and put that money towards pitching." If they are signing JT and JD, how much savings is there in keeping JD over Yoshida? Not much IMO. Plus, his offensive stats when playing the field are putrid. It was time to move on from JD. That move is a nonissue to me.

    Paxton vs Javier
  17. mvp 78
    Sweep
  18. mvp 78
    His numbers are similar to what Nipper did at 25. Maybe he’ll be good for a while, maybe he’ll be mediocre…
  19. mvp 78
    DFA schreiber. Should have traded him deadline ‘22 at height of his value.
  20. mvp 78
    Winckowski vs Schmidt
  21. mvp 78
    They are behind SEA too. TOR is 0.5 back of the Mariners right now.
  22. mvp 78
    He was a good acquisition. Guy was a 2 fWAR player last few years and was hurt early this season. His ceiling was higher than any 2b on the current 40 man. He was moved for a guy potentially taken in the next Rule 5 draft, but still in A ball. I don’t think it was a move to fix the problems of this year.
  23. mvp 78
    Crawford vs Cole
  24. mvp 78
    He should just be the 5th starter.
  25. mvp 78
    Why can't the Sox be a rich team? It's the same CBT!
