Thats what he will be-a #4-5 SP. Still need a solid #2. And a power hitting IF.
-
Your post is ridiculous. I don't care what his PROJECTIONS are. I care what he has done. Last year his ERA was 4.28, BELOW average. We don't need another BELOW AVERAGE pitcher on the staff, unless we are going to use him as a #4-5 SP of which there are already several candidates on staff. He's also getting long in the tooth. Getting Sonny Gray does nothing to address our major needs.
-
Exactly! What are they waiting for?
-
Maybe a #4-5 SP at this stage of his career. We already have those types. So he’s depth at the lower end of the rotation. Not expecting much from him. And the needs for a solid #2 and a RH power hitter remain unmet. Henry isn’t going to open his purse to pay for what the team needs, which is disgusting because if he did we could become a very good team.
-
Its more "dumpster diving for depth". We do need some depth in the SP roster, but that is a secondary need. Everyone knows what our primary needs are and this does zilch to meet them.
-
You mean the Sox are "very interested" in a more prominent righty power bat. Let me know when it is finalized.
-
The 2026 Red Sox treaded water today.

The season is saved! WOW! We got Sonny Gray! I for one am sick and tired of the Flops dumpster diving for players like Gray. Maybe he could be useful as a depth pitcher but beyond that....USELESS. We need a bona fide #2 SP and a power hitting established RHH not named Bregman. Pretty vanilla start to the offseason.

Nope. After all, Henry and his family have to eat, right? -
Red Sox 2025 Season Review/Offseason Preview Thread

I think we will get the usual: "we were REALLY INTERESTED in star player 1 or 2 or 3 but just couldn't make it work". SSDD. -
Henry is way too cheap to be able to afford Bichette. He will instruct his staff to claim that they are "interested" in him-maybe "very interested"-then lowball him. Seen this movie before.
-
Good riddance. Too many injuries; too inconsistent offensively when we need more punch in the lineup; and too old for a long term contract. Bye bye Breg........
-
Yeah Go Jays. But the Jays are now down 1-0 in their series to the M’s who significantly improved their team at the deadline to get into the position they’re in-like we should have done. See what happens when you are aggressive at the TD?
-
It’s not because the Yankee pitching is that good. It’s that our offense stinks.
-
Yup That’s why I was on Breslows case so hard. Get a couple of useful pieces and we could have been the favorites in the AL.
-
Ever read “The Peter Principle”? This team rose to its level of incompetence. They could be a chapter in that book. They did what they could with what they had. Can’t be too disappointed.
-
Not horse crap. Just mediocre. But better than the last few years. I expect much better next year.
-
Let’s see how he does against a team that can hit the baseball
-
Bello is a # 3-4 SP. We need a #2 SP. Same as we needed and didn’t get at the TD.
-
Rafaela Ks on a ball over his eyes. And with that I am ….. OUTTA HERE! Go Jays!
-
I wrote earlier that for me this season is already a success. Just making the playoffs this year was ok. Next year I want a lot more.
-
Go Jays!
-
Probably because he’s still the best option. You want Eaton, a perennial role player or Masa in the OF or Refsnyder who has sucked?
-
They did what was expected with what they had
-
This isn’t on Cora.
