  1. Am I wrong to think Martin will be the only significant pen addition, this winter?
  2. What would be worse? Knowingly doing this trade was going to hurt the tax budget or mistakenly thinking there was not tax budget hit? Are we going to have to hold out hope on Ferguson or Rosier?
  3. Based on a longer sample size of data, and watching opposing SSs make way more plays than Bogey makes.
  4. I just saw that. That frees up a roster spot for Houck & Duran for Crawford.
  5. Sox sign Chris Matin to $17.5M/2: https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/12/red-sox-to-sign-chris-martin-to-two-year-deal.html

  7. Even then, he was 10th out of 30 in UZR/150 and 13th in DRS (his best number in his career.) He's middle 10, in my book, at best. (IMO, he's probably more like 22nd to 26th, at best.)
  8. Yes, but not great enough to project 6+ years of even near the same, and what GM goes by just the previous season? (Okay, maybe a couple...)
  9. How do you win organization of the year with a crappy farm?
  10. I guess I'm just letting the defeatism that is widespread on this board, and apparently even more so on sports talk radio take hold of my soul.
  11. We aren't signing Judge or deGrom- probably not Turner, Nimmo or Rodon. We might still be in on Correa or Bogey. Like I pointed out before: I don't want 9 x $10M contracts, this year. I don't even see 9 big holes in the 40. I suppose there are 6 x $15M contracts out there, or if we sign Correa, 30-15-15-15-15, but what does that mean? Correa Conforto Contreras Nate Hill and a couple RP'ers that equal 15 together?
  12. It might help his case, if he was really good at playing SS.
  13. The point it, Tommy would and did kick Jimmy's ass.
  14. I get a feeling there will be no "major spending" on pitching. Maybe a trade. Maybe a $10-15M x 3 or 4 year SP'er and a RP'er at $5-8M a year. I'm not seeing how we spend the $90M some of thought we'd be spending.
  15. Oh, now it's 7 years. You got this year thing mastered, (unlike me...lol)
  16. Seems like just 4 years ago! LOL!
  17. I've never known positional guarantees to be put in writing. How about this a new twist on contract wording? If Bogey "plays any other position more than 25% of his starts, he gets an opt out, the following winter."
  18. I'm not sure how much positional talk is tied to the money offered, but it does make a difference on where Bogey will be projected to play for his new team. (See how I did that?) Story got $140/6 at 2B. Let's say Bogey as FT SS would net him $180M/6. Does than mean, if he's okay with 3 yrs and 3 yrs, he should get about $160M/6?
  19. If he is truly insisting on staying at SS for the full contract, he may be the last guy signed. Yes, we can't wait it out.
  20. I would not sign Bogey for more than 3 years as a SS only. It was truly nice knowing you Xander. Lot's of fond memories.
  21. I wish I said that. Oh, wait...
  22. Too many key players are sitting out bowl games, now. I'm not sure what solution can be found.
  23. You could flip him to another team for a non 40 man prospect. BTV has him worth about 10 Flexens!
  24. I'll stir it all up again: we play in a tougher division, so the 13 win gap may be misleading. Also, nice strategic choice on the last 3 years not 4.
  25. It might keep some teams from entering the bidding. If I was a GM, and I told Boris I'd play Bogey at SS for 3 years then somewhere else for the remaining 3-5 years, and he said "NO, SS every year," I'd lower my offer.
