    Instead trade for the youthful Sonny Gray and Willson Contreras?
  2. mvp 78
    The internal models they had back then must have sucked a butt then.

    I've made that claim with evidence to back myself up a few times now. All you have is a quote from FanGraphs that said hitters and pitchers decline at 30, not are more likely to get injured.

    Well, he ended up being wrong.
  5. mvp 78
    Not in practice though!

    On the Opening Day roster isn't the same as starting on Opening Day. If you know you have Duran and Abreu and Rafaela coming soon, why sign Masa? It makes no sense.

    I'm not even including the weeks when the whole family is with me and the grocery bill is somehow an additional $150.

    Just a little.

    It's more fun to empty out your farm system with trades instead?

    Good defense. Doesn't chase. Decent pull rate. Excellent hard hit/exit velo. The goal of always staying under the cap may not be a great idea.

    I won't tell you what the temp is here today.

    There was an original deal in place with DD and LAD to move Betts that included Smith during '19.
  15. mvp 78
    He had been called up in '21 and '22. He could have been on the Opening Day roster if they wanted.
  16. mvp 78
    My grocery bill has had more inflation since 2019 than Sox payroll.

    2019 BOS 243M 2026 268M Seems like BOS isn't keeping up the pace?
  18. mvp 78
    Arias is too high. I'd trade him for someone else's Early today.
  19. mvp 78
    Will he put up 15 fWAR? Does it matter since the Sox have a huge hole in the IF. If he puts up 4, 4, 3, 2, 2, it gets it done. It he only puts up 12 fWAR, maybe it is still worth it in the end for the short term though. Not every contract has to exceed the model. Story's surely won't.

    Duran, Verdugo and they signed Duvall later on for very cheap. Masa played OF after Duvall got hurt. Had Rafaela and Abreu in the pipeline so there was no reason to sign a guy for years and years...
  21. mvp 78
    Move Devers to 1b and Casas to DH. Seems like a smart move. Sign Swanson after '22 (many advocated on here) and keep Story at 2b. Very strong up the middle and can help Devers deficiencies at 3b. Sign Santana 2/12 to play 1b.

    Sox pitchers that were injured last season under 30: Kutter Sandoval Houck Bello Giolito Dobbins Fitts Murphy Moran 33% chance to get injured Over 30 guys on the roster: Matz De Leon Fulmer Stock Kelly Wilson Bernardino Chapman Buehler Hendriks 20% chance to get injured

    You weren't, others in the thread were which is why I wrote "(not directed at you)." I agree on your other points. The long term staffers must never swim upstream if they have stuck around this far.
  24. mvp 78
    Just move Devers or Casas to DH instead of signing Masa?
  25. mvp 78
    He had no idea who Juan Valera was when they signed him. He just trusted the scouts and had JH write a check. Tolle was drafted by Breslow.
