  1. He said that it was a very recent thing (since 2020?) and that he went overboard with it and just recently reeled it back in a little.
  2. Masataka has the same SLG as Juan Soto. His ISO is higher than Vlad Jr's right now.
  3. @DanSecatore This lineup has compiled a total of 77.5 bWAR over parts of 50 cumulative seasons. That's an average of 1.5 bWAR per season. This is the lineup equivalent of Jeff Frye. I try not to get swept up in emotion when I look at lineups, but I really bristled at this one.
  4. Turner has not been very good in his 33 innings at 3B. Also, he had the weird in between play where he didn't make it back to 3B for the runner a few series ago. The best alignment would be Devers at 3B and Turner at 1B.
  5. Part CBO, part coaching, part players.
  6. Whitlock vs Gomber Refsnyder LF, Turner 3B, Verdugo RF, Duvall DH, Arroyo 2B, K. Hernández CF, Casas 1B, Wong C, Reyes SS Bench: Devers, Mastaka, Duran, McGuire
  7. Ooof. I think he probably needs to be moved to 1B in the next week or so. Dude is fat and has a baby face. Also, his binky is now in SD.
  8. The problem lies in the Sox terrible PR spin that we all see through. Just say "we needed the pitcher and the tweets weren't a big enough deal to us" rather than talking about understanding people's pain or whatever the f***.
  9. Why is the chef doing the gardening?
  10. Possible DFA/non-tender candidate?
  11. And with the FA cost?!?!? Yuck!
  12. At least make him Maker's Mark 46...
  13. Not a chance. We don't get the top shelf stuff.
  14. They have also struggled to get pitchers to excel once they get to AAA.
  15. During the offseason it made him slow to make a move. Now, maybe it's making him slow to change staff?
  16. It took 45 days too long to make this call.
  17. Since 5/5: 575 OPS 53 wRC+ 30.8 K% He'll be 27 in September.
  18. When they sign Urias for 10 years, it'll JUST BE FOR MONEY then...
  19. Sorry, I'm disagreeing with you and Dipre on this. It's better business to sell prospects for an ace and extend than go via FA. Money has been thrown around like crazy lately and I don't really agree with the assertion that you're competing with the same amount of teams in a trade market.
  20. The difference is that you'll be bidding along with a bunch of other teams to get that FA. In the trade market, you can get the guy at a below market deal for guys that may not ever turn into anything special and then extend that starter at a rate less than what you'd spend on Urias et al.
  21. There's a cap to what they can pay players, but not to what they can spend on coaching staff, facilities, scouts, etc...
  22. An innocuous tidbit was sent to the electric chair. Final meal: just desserts.
  23. Saw video of him just throwing from 120' yesterday at Fenway.
