  1. These things happen when you're covering the Interest Kings.
  2. What do you consider a miss? He's not making predictions, just reporting credible rumors.
  3. As much as I trust any Red Sox source, sure. He has a good track record of only reporting stuff that's real.
  4. It's all debatable, but Duran is the only one who has proven himself at the MLB level, and there's still 4 years of control. Mayer must be #6.
  5. + Snell (signed), Teoscar, Bellinger.
  6. This seems like a much faster paced off season than normal.
  7. Starting to think Soto is nothing but a greedy SOB, so... SIGN THE MAN!
  8. Less total money, but the risk of 2 large deals for starting pitchers with a 3 at the start of their age is too much.
  9. It's unspendable money whichever offer he takes now. I think it has to come down to where Soto really wants to play and live the next dozen years or so.
  10. Vlad is only under contract for 2025, so any trade would have to be followed up with a hefty extension offer if you want the man long-term.
  11. In Hypothetical Land, "Toy" Ryan Weber was the #5 starter/swingman on the 2020 champion Red Sox.
  12. moon, this started with you saying: One ring with all that spending, unless you count 2020 Time to drop this, but I just want to say that if I didn't respect your baseball knowledge and IQ so much I would just ignore things like this instead of arguing them.
  13. No, I think the 2020 regular season numbers obviously have issues. That's not the point at all. The real point is it's the postseason that decides who the champ is.
  14. I gotta say no. Nice wild ass conspiracy theory, though. 😉 All this waiting on Soto is making us a little mental, I think.
  15. To me "lesser value" is just another rabbit hole. How much lesser value? Do you count it as 73% of a ring?
  16. Vlad is a great hitter but he falls well short of Soto. Career OPS+ Soto 160 Vlad 137
  17. Really? Even with all the sub-90 win teams in the WS the last few years? It seems like you're talking about the way you think things should be, not the way they actually are now. One of the reasons I say 2020 was totally legit was that the Dodgers and Rays were teams that had a lot of regular season success before and after that year. They were arguably one of the most legit WS matchups of the last 10-20 years. They didn't get in there by fluke. Another point here is that 2020 was NOT the first short season...
  18. No one is signing Burnes AND Fried.
  19. It would be kind of nice if they could figure out why our offense had an OPS of .654 in September.
  20. OTOH if the Sox are really going balls to the wall here, it suggests a pretty sudden and large shift in organizational philosophy. Which is what Dan Secatore is hinting at in the article I linked in the Zack Scott thread. Maybe JH finally said "Well, this ain't workin', guys. Time to change course from Tampa North to Dodgerland East!" Might be some wishful thinking on my part, too...
  21. I think everybody is still interested in everybody at this point.
  22. Reportedly the Jays latest offer works out to 1 billion Canadian dollars. I wish that was purely a joke. 🙃
