  1. It's actually not blue. We are seeing the reflection of blue, because the other colors are absorbed. The sky is actually absent only the color blue as it reflects it.
  2. If we are talking upgrades from opening day to opening day, then we might look better, now. We had no Bello, Paxton, Sale, Whitlock, Story and some others, too, for 2023's opening day roster.
  3. Wong's OPS is over 1.300, this spring, after today's 2 hit (w HR) day.
  4. Just don't HIT the ground too hard!
  5. No we all die. No, the Sox don't finish last, every year. Just 3 seasons ago we were close to going to the WS. Six years ago, we won the WS.
  6. Story was on the roster, but it is an upgrade. We can then count full seasons by Abreu, Rafaela & Reyes, but the "upgrade" part is questionable. Reyes> Kike Abreu + Rafaela > Verdugo & Tapia?
  7. ...or Breslow?
  8. Some people and companies pay zero taxes of any kind.
  9. There is hardly any changes, at all. With Grissom out, the only everyday change is O'Neill. ("Upgrade" is questionable) The staff should have a few "new faces" opening day: Slaten, Campbell, Weissert, Criswell. (Doubtful upgrades, unless you comp them to Brasier, Bleier, llovera and Kluber.
  10. I'm way off on my assessment of our catchers, compared to them.
  11. Many large companies pay no taxes.
  12. Who knows? Like we need 10 LF'ers on the 40.
  13. I would assume he'd get a longer break after a 3 IP stint. He did pitch 3 IP 4 times in APR & May, last year. He went into the 3rd IP, at least once. He never pitched 2.1+ IP, after May 26th.
  14. Either the whole league is below avg, or Yorke is above AVG, unless their methods suck.
  15. That is an option. When Refsnyder returns, they can alternate in AAA, unless one is really impressing us. Yoshida can play LF, too. (Cron, Dalbec, or rest Casas, devers, Story, Grissom or an OF'er at DH, when Yoshi plays LF.)
  16. This would make a few posters here happy.
  17. How does the Eastern League choose their Defensive Players of the Year, if this guy is just average?
  18. This made sense from day 1. He can probably go 3 IP, here and there, too.
  19. He looked okay, last year and in ST'ing.
  20. Why not, if we can get by without them on the 26 in 2024 for a month or two? 31 is still prime. It also increases their trade value, if they are decent or better.
  21. I'll take the latter.
  22. Eye-opening numbers. Being pretty good for a 26 game stretch probably qualifies for having a good full season. Most good to great SP'ers have a 2-6 game stretch of bad outings, just about every season.
  23. I don't disagree. By me saying I think Yorke has the best 2024 potential to be impactful out of our MLB ready MI minor leaguers, is not saying he is very good or even very promising. I do think I prefer him on our 40 over DHam and Sogard, but trading him makes sense, too.
  24. It's just nice to have another year of control, if he turns out to be good to very good. If he's not worth the arb money, then we trade, non-tender or DFA him.
