Check my math please. 2020 - reset! 2021 - under 2022 - over on accident 2023 - reset! There's no way that the payroll of the last 4 year suggests the Sox are in the upper tier. It seems they are middle of the pack with the Twins, Rockies, Cardinals and Mariners of the world right now. These teams will get one big name contract, appease the fans and then go on about their business for better or worse. The question will be, how does Henry act when Sale's money is freed up after 2024, WHICH IS TWO MORE YEARS AWAY. ARE WE REALLY AT THE POINT OF THIS BEING A BRIDGE YEAR AND NEXT YEAR BEING ONE TOO?!??!

It is early, because all the games from May - September still count and have yet to be played.

@SoxProspects Dalton Rogers pitching line- 5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 K, 54/90 strikes (60%). The 22-year-old lefty has a 2.79 ERA over 9.2 IP with 19 strikeouts to 5 walks.

No, they aren't. They are 14th. That's middle of the road. Average! By definition that's not a big spender.
-
Eovaldi has 1 fWAR already thanks to a 2.20 FIP. Just adding Nate would take the Sox pitching from 25th to 17th.
-
Considering where the rotation's fWAR is right now, probably. They weren't going to fix it by signing one guy at 10M.
-
For sure, they were DUMB for not resetting last year. All they had to do was trade JD for a low A prospect at the deadline and the would have reset. Big time fail on FO for that.
-
It is just as misleading as moon's "they've spent $650M since March 2022."
-
They are mid tier. 14th even! Spending more than the bottom s*** tier of MLB is nothing to be proud of considering how some of those teams are run.

And the Operating Profit excludes the real estate $$$ from the surrounding area as well as ownership of NESN $$$.
-
Prospects are never a guarantee. You can move a signed SS to 2B or elsewhere. You can move Mayer to a different position or trade him in a package for a starting pitcher if he really develops.

How many players did he get rid of again? Xander 11 @ 280M Mookie 12 @ 365M Nate 2 @ 34M JD 1 @ 10 M Vaz 3 @ 30M Renfroe 1 @ 12M Seems like he's committed to SLASHING money and not spending it?

HAhahahahahahahahahahahahah

In the visitor's dugout?
-
Funny, because our concerns this offseason were starting pitching and SS. Thanks, Chaim.
-
I could see the Mets or someone going crazy and giving him a monster deal. I don't see this ownership doing that for him. When have they done that for anyone? Devers didn't set the market at that position.
-
If this was the case, he wouldn't be ranting against Mets ownership with every last breath right now and fighting for the rights of small market teams to not pay their players.
-
They also have a really bad Rendon contract and have had a consistently bad farm system. Even Chaim could make that Angels team better than what it currently is.
-
No chance. None.
-
Why didn't they just go over again this year and sign one year deals? Why not reset next year when more young guys are projected to be promoted from the minors?
-
SINCE MARCH 2022! Is that what actually came out of Henry's wallet since then or no?
-
Ah, so they slashed and slashed and slashed and then spent under the cap again, but that's a win for you? That's how a large market franchise acts to you? They were forced by their fanbase to sign one franchise player because their tickets are the second highest in the game and the owners were letting every great player leave for greener pastures, but the Sox are still acting like a large market franchise to you?
-
Middle of the pack in payroll = large market now
-
I like the "March 2022" qualifier.
