    They were 69-65 going into September. I think what they did in September isn't going to translate to next season. They just completely turtled and fell apart once they realized they weren't making the playoffs. This was a team that was slightly above .500 all year long. Ending on a 9-19 stretch skews the negatives too high.

    Rafaela getting that much time in CF. I think he sees a lot of time at 2B/SS in 2024. It's not ideal, but Cora hinted at it. Eventually, he should be the fulltime CF, but they will still use him to fill in MIF until the younger guys show up later in '24 and '25.

    Hard to say.
  4. mvp 78
    He's a fine SS, but long term he's going to be pushed to 2B. He was better there in 2022. It was like having Pedey back there, injuries and all!

    The majority of posters on here jump at the chance to pat themselves on the back. I don't know what kind of point system they think is being handed out.

    Why would Miami be a better job? Please provide a few baseball reasons (not weather, food, etc).

    And now the GM is leaving of her own accord, because she doesn't want to work with ownership anymore because they have too much say. This goes back to the Jeter days where he left for similar reasons. There are non-baseball people making baseball decisions there. At least Henry attempts to hire baseball people and then lets them hang themselves after 4 years and a few losing seasons. There's no way Henry would have let Ng walk out that door without an extension after getting into the playoffs. It's really embarrassing for Marlins fans right now. They aren't happy.

    He could have been a great hire. The reasoning behind the hire was solid. The issue was that sometimes you don't know how well a person will perform in a new job until they actually are there. Chaim had the pedigree, but just couldn't do what needed to be done in Boston. Nothing against him, but he's not a fit in Boston. I don't think you could really learn that 100% until he's actually in the job.

    Ng left Miami after only 3 years.
  11. mvp 78
    It still is. I believe you haven't paid much attention to what is going on in Miami and how horrible of a working situation that would be. Boston isn't the greatest situation in the world, but it's a high profile job where you'd be paid more and would have better access to $$$ and a farm to deal from.

    Sox would have needed to have a GM/CBO that wanted to do trades in the first place.

    Woodruff's career is most likely over.
  14. mvp 78
    He averaged about 2 innings per game in the field. Guess that's a lot of time on the bench.
  15. mvp 78
    He'll be the Opening Day SS, but he shouldn't be.
  16. mvp 78
    I'm not anyone.
  17. mvp 78
    No.
  18. mvp 78
    Interesting! I've been trying to get time on your calendar for months, but she wouldn't let me in! Unless...

    I'm a Story to 2b truther.

    @tylermilliken_ Some more updates on the Red Sox front office search from @bradfo: - Twins GM Thad Levine and the Red Sox have “elicited mutual interest” in each other. - And apparently another longtime GM who isn’t currently holding a GM or POBO role has talked with the Red Sox. Other GM is Sabean probably?
  21. mvp 78
    It's MUCH more attractive to work for the Sox. It's not even close.
  22. mvp 78
    I don't think Duran is a future All Star.
  23. mvp 78
    @JeffPassan The Miami Marlins wanted to hire a president of baseball operations over general manager Kim Ng, leading to her departure from the organization, sources told ESPN. When reached, Ng declined comment. But sources said she would've been the No. 2 after constructing a playoff team. Marlins ownership is such a joke. Embarrassing.
  24. mvp 78
    There are two potentially open positions. Maybe Ng is hired and Romero is elevated to GM?

    Eovaldi has thrown 3x the amount of innings as Sale since 2021. Eovaldi has injury concerns. Sale is a sinking ship.
