An elite closer like Chapman is in a different category. They don't become available that often. Chapman has been traded for Gleyber Torres and Cole Ragans. -
Sox are clearly selling? You're going on record with that?
-
It all screams randomness!
-
Agree 100%. Every season matters and as you say, the future never actually gets here.
-
But they're 9-3 against the Yankees and Rays. Beating up on the bad teams is something the Sox have had trouble with. There's a ton of randomness involved in all of it. Bottom line is they're 2.5 games out of the playoffs with 71 games to go, and there are some positive trends. And a guy named Bregman should be back soon.

Yes, I'm not sure BTV is much of a reference point for deadline trades of top relief pitchers. They are a prized commodity at this time of year.
-
IN MLB every move is risky and plenty of non-moves are too.
-
Yeah, I find it surprising how many fans start thinking about selling off so early now.
-
The average line on the Sox right now is about -250. So you'd have to bet $250 to win $100.
-
Easy Den. It's a favorable matchup, but it's baseball.
-
KIGG! 🙂
-
This is one case where it's too low, because it's impossible to quantify a value that includes the postseason. Just think of when Theo Epstein traded one of the top prospects in baseball, Gleyber Torres, for this same player.
-
The Sox issue hasn't been a strength of competition issue. They're 9-3 against the Yankees and Rays. They just took 2 of 3 from Cincy and Cincy is an over .500 team. I'm feeling some optimism. But of course that can be crushed pretty quickly LOL
-
There are some signs the team is coming around. This would be one more kick in the head to the fans IMO. All depends how they do the next few weeks.
-
If they trade Chapman they have to go full sell mode, all expiring contracts.
-
Trading Chapman would be waving the white flag on 2025, there's no way around that.
-
I think we might be turning a corner for the better, Larry. We'll see.
-
It would have taken some serious panning out. Downs wasn't even Bloom's first choice, he pivoted to Downs because they didn't like Graterol's medicals.
-
Valid question, I will answer on behalf of AC: 1) Abreu's .678 is in only 41 PAs. For his career he's at .570. 2) The 2025 difference is not yet worth changing the current configuration of Duran in left and Abreu platooning in right. 3) If Abreu keeps doing better against lefties that could change.

A Realistic View of the 2025 Red Sox: Part II
Bellhorn04 replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Plus they have Houck, Dobbins and maybe even Sandoval to come back. RP is definitely a must. -
That was indeed a hose job. I suspect that Henry had a lot to do with it. I think he held off the trade as long as possible to avoid hurting ticket sales, and he probably insisted on the Price dump.
-
Anybody up for some delicious fresh-picked cherries? I hope so, because Trevor Story, in his last 24 games, has a .984 OPS, 6 HR and 25 RBI.
-
Devers has stunk so far for the Giants. This was not the Mookie Betts trade.
-
Seems like a fair chunk of them would be?
-
Your post specifically said this adds immediate talent to put BOS in the race for a wild card spot. Now you're saying it's for next year. OK...
