They are moving guys quicker than they have recently. I'm not sure they are really ready to move Yorke yet. Can't move Bonaci until one of Yorke/Meidroth/Mayer is promoted. They would run out of AB's.
-
Teel's defense is supposed to be good enough to play the position.
-
I just don't think he's as high end as you do. He's not a top 100 guy. He might not be a top 200 guy.
-
Usually more than 2! SoxProspects still lists Perales as a ceiling of a mid-rotation starter. That's Bello? Worse than Bello. That's the ceiling! It's more likely that Perales ends up in the pen since he's still having command/control issues.
-
Ward was actually a starter at one point. Wallace has always been a reliever and IS STRUGGLING IN AA. Ward is a far superior pitcher to Wallace. It's not even close.
-
A top tier catcher? Draft them. Anything else is a shot in the dark. If they guy can stick behind the plate like Adley, it's definitely worth it.
-
To some owners, there is value off the field for marketing and other reasons not factored into fWAR. Not sure Henry is as concerned about that though.
-
He only pitched in one game in 2021 because of injuries. If there plan is to hoard DSL guys, their 40 man roster will get bloated with guys that can't help their MLB roster on an annual basis. Not an ideal way to run a competitive team.
-
Oh no! He's in AA with a 1.65 WHIP. He would have been returned like Politi. You can let low upside relievers go.
-
You just don't trust catchers?
-
I don't think Ohtani is worth $700M to John Henry.
-
Kottaras: 20th round draft pick Lavarnway: 6th round draft pick Swihart was signed out of High School How are they similar to Teel?
-
He's still far away and needs to be put on the 40 man this year. Probably wouldn't get to BOS until 2026? He also hasn't been a very healthy player so I don't know if he's a guy you can really trust long term. I'd sell high on him if I could.
-
No idea about the "way under" rumor. Honestly, as long as they sign the first 4 picks, I'm happy.
-
FanGraphs has a writeup today about 1st round catchers and what to expect out of Teel. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/what-do-you-do-with-a-first-round-catcher/
-
Wrong! Neither were on the 60 day IL in Spring Training. They both took up roster spots that could have been used by functional players!
-
Yes, if they plan on actually competing next year.
-
Just wait until November and sign him for $700M and keep Mayer and Bello at their current discounted rates.
-
I also wasn't saying it was certainly going to happen. I was saying there was just a chance it would happen due to the rumor that Teel was signing for way under and that the Sox really loaded up on underslot guys. He's still likely to go to school as his bat needs more refinement IMO.
-
Mondesi and Mills were wastes of 40 man roster spots this offseason.
-
They always come around...
-
For a few months of Ohtani for a team that is struggling to stay in WC contention. Laughable trade.
-
LOL, no chance this happens.
-
Also, Sox announced Call as an OFer FWIW.
-
He's only ranked 226. They could sign him if they other guys are far enough under slot. Rumor is that Teel was under slot. A lot of the other picks were under slot guys. They got Brannon last year and nobody thought he would sign.
