    Agreed. He won't every become "capable" at one position, if they keep jerking him around. The thing is, even if we trade Duran, the OF is still blocked. 2B does seem like the best "lane" in terms of team needs. The OF might be his best chance at being "capable," or else he'll end up a DH, assuming he regains his hit tool.
  2. moonslav59
    We've added a few catchers "down the line." That can't be a bad thing.
  3. moonslav59
    We simply have to make this happen. The good thing is, that the desperation factor applies to HOU as much as us. We both have logjams that need clearing up. We both have high needs at the same area the other has the logjam. No brainer, here.

    I really don't see a better and clearly available target than Paredes. If he's a little below average on 3B defense, maybe Contreras at 1B and Mayer/Romy at 2B can make the overall infield defense a little better than 2025. If the OF stay healthy, and we don't need to use Rafaela at 2B, the OF should improve (LF Anthony/ CF Rafaela/ RF Abreu FT.) It's going to be hard to improve on the 2015 DH slot, since Devers was there for 300+ PAs, but with Duran, Masa and Romy there, we should be okay.

    Paying Hicks, too sucks. Good site. Clean & clear.
  6. moonslav59
    It will be interesting to see what position he plays in ST'ing. Gotta be LF or 2B (maybe both.)

    soxprospects.com slotted OF'er Garielvin Silverio IFA signee at #34. Is he our new "PASSWORD?" Or, could it be #35: Dawvris Brito SS
  8. moonslav59
    Brez has had a busy winter with trades- mostly prospects, although not many higher level ones. He's also added a few... Gone: 4. Perales (Bennett) 8. Clarke (S Gray) 10. Fajardo (Contreras) 25ish? T Gray (Guerrero) >later> traded for Nate Baez 33. Aita (Contreras) Added: 6. Jake Bennett (Perales) 21. Ryan Watson (Reimer/Rule 5) 29. Samaniego (w Oviedo & A Guzman for JhGracia & Travieso) 31. Adonys Guzman (w Oviedo & Samaniego for JhGracia & Travieso) 32. Luke Heyman (Hoppe) 50. Isaiah Jackson (Grissom) N/R Ronny Hernandez (Murphy) N/R Braiden Ward (Bernardino) N/R Nate Baez (T Gray)

    There must be at least 50 shades of Gray, as well as 50 ways to leave your borderliner.
  10. moonslav59
    One year of Peralta, but maybe they extend him.
  11. moonslav59
    Mets acquire Peralta!
  12. moonslav59
    I seems better on D than the metrics show, but I don't think they can be that wrong.
  13. moonslav59
    That must have been hard for you to say, even jokingly! 🤪
  14. moonslav59
    BTV rejected Crawford & DHam for Paredes! LOL! (Major overpay, when I took DHam out.) Other trades accepted: Bello for Paredes and B King Bello & Sandlin for Paredes, Sousa & Janek Bello, Hicks & $6M for Paredes & Abreu Campbell & Sandlin for Paredes
  15. moonslav59
    I think Paredes has a better OPS than Bregman & Bichette in 2026 and maybe even Alonso & possibly Schwarber.
  16. moonslav59
    Thanks for the breaking front page news. On the back pages: Sox made room to sign another bum pitcher.
  17. moonslav59
    Anthony has our top projected OPS at .801. (#36 in MLB)
  18. moonslav59
    It's not a good thing to have your top wRC+ projected player be #38 (Anthony at 122,) but what may be worse is that your second guy is #80 (Contreras at 115.) 114 Abreu is at #90, so he barely gives us 3 in the top 90 (38, 80, 90) 110 Yoshida at #114 gives us 4 in the top 120, which is the norm. 107 Duran is at #150, which give us exactly the norm of 5 in 150. We need help on O. The Yanks just brought Bellinger back.
  19. moonslav59
    ...and it's not really possible for great batters to get more PAs by a manager's choice. As great as Papi was, I found myself thinking, I'm so glad Pedro, or Schilling, or Beckett, Lester or Sale as being more comforting than hoping Papi can get up one more time with the winning runner on base.
  20. moonslav59
    Today's trade bringing us catcher depth. 2nd choice is a distant but thrilling presser when we signed him.
  21. moonslav59
    Some notable wRC+ projections for 2026: 1. Judge 172 2. Soto 165 11. KMarte 136 15. Schwarber 133 21. Alonso 130 29. Devers 125 & Paredes (wanna talk replacing Devers?) 38. Anthony 122 & Bichette 41. Bregman 121 62 Donovan 117 69. Polanco 116 & Bellinger 75 Contreras 115 & Vientos 85. Abreu 114 90. Chisholm 113 & Casas/Okamoto 100 G Torres 112 105 Bogey 111 110 Yoshida 110 130. Meidroth 108 & E Suarez/B Baty 140. Hoerner 107 & Duran 155. Teel 106 175. M Shaw 104 & Romy
  22. moonslav59
    I do agree that his wRC+ projection is better than anyone on the Sox is reason enough to make the trade happen-- like-- YESTERDA!
  23. moonslav59
    I think they just plan on everyone getting hurt for 50 games.
  24. moonslav59
    $162M/5 is almost Bregman money. With no deferrals it might be worth more.
  25. moonslav59
    In terms of DRS and OOA, yes, close. DRS Rafaela +1/ Romy -1 Okay, Not super close OAA Rafaela 0/ Romy -1 (in 123 more innings) very close. I'd pull out Flg% but then I'd be a hypocrite. 91 assists & 43 POs in 288 innings Romy 34 assists & 35 POs in 165 innings Ceddanne
