Just curious what's everyone thoughts on the following players this upcoming season? Shoppach, Salty, Ellsbury, Beckett, Crawford, and A-God?
Shoppach: I didn't like his numbers last season. Varitek had better numbers than him. I don't see him doing much in Boston but I hope I'm wrong.
Salty: I'm satisfied from what we got from last year even though many disliked him. He exceeded my expectations. He needs to learn how to throw though and get a little better defensively.
Ellsbury: Still think he'll produce solid numbers. Not MVP caliber numbers but enough to be productive.
Beckett: He's very inconsistent. For some reason in even numbered years he doesn't pitch as good(Look at the stats for further evidence). I hope he produces decent numbers. We're not looking to hot in the rotation if he shits the bed.
Crawford: Some already calling him a bust. It's way too early and I don't think he repeats last years performance, just no way.
A-God: Same but with more consistency after ASB.
