They'll end up trading him then?
-
The only interesting part is the mother saying that daughter WAS over 18. The situation is questionable enough (missing dox) that the dude should have just found someone clearly over 18. Wander could find almost anyone he wanted to sleep with.
-
Pass.
-
Was this guy known to have issues before this?
-
Also, let me say that I don't have a problem with his contract.
-
Castellanos has played 944 innings in RF this year. Cabrera's contract was signed when he was a 1B (no way is he going for 30M on the open market).
-
Better org fit at LF?
-
He was also a fulltime OFer.

Another Stantonian post by Dipre.

As long as the games aren't on Peacock or Apple, it will be more fun for Red Sox Nation in the short term.
-
I'm not saying that's what is happening now, I'm saying that's what I'd do next year if they were trying to get close to fulltime (162) for some players. Duran would no longer lose playing time to Ref, Verdugo would.
-
It's a healthy team full of guys that find themselves often getting injured. I wouldn't bet on them staying healthy.
-
He's a better fielder than Masa according to DRS and OAA. He didn't show up on the list I was looking at because he doesn't have enough qualified at bats and I don't worry about AAA teams like the ones that play in the Bronx.

Boo.

2024: C Wong/McGuire (no 162's) 1B Casas should go 162, but he missed time in '21 and '22 due to injury. I'd still sit him here and there. 2B No clear 162 player SS Story should go 162, but has only played over 150 games once 3B Devers should go 162, but only if you can give him the DH spot (has done 156 twice) LF Masa should go 162, but had soft tissue injuries this year, probably can't do it CF Duran should go 162 and probably is the only guy that could do it RF Verdugo could go 162, but I think having a guy like Refsnyder fill in for LHP is fine here
-
Yeah, it's why the Sox only have 16% chance to get into the playoffs. It's because it's unlikely for everything to break just right.

2023 Red Sox: 19th Batting fWAR 30th Defense OAA (most errors in MLB) 25th Starting Pitching fWAR 10th Reliever fWAR Aside from 3 series, the rest of the schedule is a gauntlet of teams above .500.
-
With the Braves, they have 4 of the best players in the game and they want them in the lineup as much as possible. With the Sox, I'm not sure any of the guys have really stood out from the pack until recently. Even then, are they in the conversation with the Braves players? Acuna #1 fWAR Olson #8 fWAR Riley #23 fWAR Albies #33 fWAR Devers #60 fWAR Casas and Duran should prove to be fulltime guys going forward, but I can see why they weren't at the beginning of this season. Both also have considerable defensive issues though Duran is improved. Is Story ready for 162? I doubt it. Masa? Maybe if the DH spot is open, but he had lower body injuries this year which held him back at times.
-
Are you talking actual "rest days" or sitting a guy for a matchup?
-
20M for a pitcher makes sense. For Verdugo? Maybe? That's 2.5 fWAR which is about what he does every year. I think they'd be better off moving on from him and trying to package him in a trade for a middle rotation starter.
-
And a whole bunch of other teams.
-
Sox have another year of control before they would have to give him the QO?
-
Turner can't go 162. No way. Hard to "rest" other guys at DH if you sign a fulltime DH like Masa.
-
Chipper Jones never played a full 162. He played 150+ from 96-03. From 04-on, he never hit 150 games again and averaged 122 games. Seems like he eventually needed the rest. Maybe it's good depending on the age of the player?
-
He'd be the second highest paid DH behind Schwarber, no?
