  1. Losing the FAs to be is one thing, but losing Chapman & Whitlock would add two big holes for winter moves to fill. We already will have 5-6: SS C 2B DH RP3 RP5 This assumes Crochet fills the Gray slot.
  2. Sox are 12-6 in games Seigler started. Cheng? 6-1. If it's all about wins, Brez is a genius for adding these two gems.
  3. Nope, but Oviedo, Crawford and Houck have.
  4. Catcher OPS on the Farm 1.112 Primera FCL/SAL 1.027 Ro Hernandez GRE 1.023 Gasper WOO .954 Jo Rodriguez FCL .931 Brannon POR (1B/DH) .845 A Guzman SAL/GRE .844 Jo Garcia POR .809 Heyman SAL/GRE .804 Mussett SAL (1B) .752 Hickey WOO (1B/DH) .729 Baez WOO .705 Knizner WOO .699 Rosario POR .687 Mambel FCL/SAL (1B) .663 Hudson White GRE .626 Ge Rodriguez GRE
  5. Romy takes the 4 slot, tonight. 1. Seigler 2B 2. Rafaela CF 3. Abreu RF 4. Romy 1B 5. Yoshida DH 6. Durbin 3B 7. Duran LF 8. Wong C 9. Cheng SS
  6. I'd need to be wow'd to trade Contreras. I don't think Houck, Crawford or Casas will bring back enough to give up on their upside potential, but I'd listen. Trading Chapman and or Whitlock would mean we'd need some serios pen building, this winter, and I'm not just talking about making Houck and Crawford pen arms.
  7. We agree. I'm not for giving up the future for a long shot at something special, this year. I'm hoping 2027 can be special, and selling this deadline improves those odds.
  8. FAs to be: Gray, Sandoval, IKF & Coulombe FAs after 2027: Chapman, Yoshida & Houck FAs after 2028: Contreras, Duran, Whitlock, Romy, Crawford, Kelly, Wong, Casas & Story
  9. You are probably right, but I read pitchers usually throw between 50 and 130 inning in their first season back. This is his second, after he pitched 75 in the minors, last year. I know Verlander is not human, but he won a Cy Young at age 39, the year after surgery (1.5 years after and 175 IP.)
  10. We will almost certainly need Bello or Crochet to eat some innings, if we stay in this thing and keep Gray. Early and Tolle will be limited, and Bennett will not be overworked. Gray & Suarez will need to max out. I doubt Crawford or Oviedo even pitch. Houck is a long shot, even in a relief role for 2026. Uberstine is a pen arm, and Holobetz & Eyanson are in AA and not on the 40.
  11. This September, it will be 3 years since his surgery.. I agree, it would be pushing it, but he could come close. It's not unheard of after 1.5 years off and rehabbing.
  12. Winning quiets the masses, except Fred, of course.
  13. Recent sample sizes don't count, unless they support the given position.
  14. We could see some big name pitchers traded, soon. Detroit has Skubal & Casey Mize- bot FA-to-be. Sonny Gray? Clay Holmes? Will Alcantara finally be traded? (MIA may be buyers) Joe Ryan? (MIN could be buyers.) Gausman? (TOR is like 5-15 in their last 20.) There is also some talk about some pitchers under control through 2028 being on the block: Lugo & Wacha from the Royals? Detmers & Soriano from the Angels?
  15. Indeed and maybe even RHP Guerrero might fetch a decent A prospect.
  16. Where did Verdu go? Did that trade do Judice for Bloom?
  17. The same reason the NYY are under .500 w/o Judge. Unforeseen drops by vets and players in or approaching prime. How about blaming the players, for once? So, when we get to 1 game over .500, you will move the goalposts, right?
  18. You crack me up. Of course he's hit more than he's misssed. If you count non moves, it's closer, but the roster is better than when he too over, and on paper maybe even better than 2025's roster. You talk of the Yanks without Judge, but won't consider Sox injuries into this W-L equation you put forward. He's certainly made mistakes and should have made trades he did not. Crochet, Gray, Suarez, Contreras, Durbin> Bregman, Refsnyder, Harrison, Priester & Drohan
  19. The Sox are 33-31 under Tracy, and according to some, W-L is all that counts. Under Cora: no chance for playoffs. Under Tracy, we'd be the 2nd WC team projecting his winning %.
