Only 12 qualified on that list. He is 6th out of 12 in DRS. If you increase the sample size to 15 (one for each AL Team), Bogey placed: 5th in UZR/150 7th in DRS By far, his best season, but not top 3.
-
Being a "caddy" does not mean taking anyone's starting role.
-
Hosmer can take over that role.
-
BTV is not always right. There is a reason you would trade Hosmer for Winker. Despite his trouble with the team, I think he's worth way more than Hosmer. I'd be happy, if we got him for Hosmer & E Valdez. I'd even throw in Seabold.
-
Pretty good= GG? Was he really top 3? He's 8th in UZR/150 at 4.7 DRS has never been his friend, but he was a +4, this year. Thatw as 14th and 10 runs below the top 3. Don't get me wrong: I was thrilled to see him have his best defensive year,ever, but I don't see him as being top 3.
-
If Casas plays near FT at 1B, are the rest of these guys good enough to keep us respectable at DH?
-
It really is true: no Red Sox player is wanted by the Mariners. You guys are better at each and every position.
-
To me, the GG votes have been the most absurd of all. It's mostly a popularity contest.
-
I'd still rather just sign a cheap SS with a great glove as a bridge to Mayer and keep Kike in CF. I'm fine with trading Hosmer, but it's hard to know which team might have interest. He's not very good on D and looks like a platoon at bat, but at least he's on the bigger side of a platoon,
-
It wouldn't be as bad as Jeter winning not one, not two, not three, but 4 Gold Gloves.
-
I figured they moved him with the promotion to AA, to keep Koss at SS.
-
I really like Kike in CF, but maybe Kiermaier in CF is better than the declining Iggy or Simmons at SS for cheap.
-
I heard it was the biggest strike out disparity in history. 17 Ks NYY batters 2 Ks HOU batters
-
You guys are killing me!
-
Sometimes, just sometimes, managers do know more than we do.
-
Agreed. He's very likely worth $320M/8, so going $320M/10 helps on the tax line for 8 years. I seriously doubt the Sox make a strong play for Judge, but it would be a major coup and set the Yanks scrambling to counterstrike. We do need a RF'er, badly. If we go lighter at SS, maybe Swanson or even a cheap bridge to Mayer, Iggy (maybe Lugo in 2024), we can afford to splurge. Someone, wake me up!
-
.800 from 2018 is pretty good, and I'd rather have a r trending upwards than the other way. I'm not totally sold on Ref, but I do think he has earned a spot of the 26 as our 4th OF'er and possible platoon RF'er or DH. It would not upset me, if he starts the year in AAA, either, but I think we need to target our spending on 5-6 key slots and not spread the money around on mediocrity.
-
The opposite of Rizzo.
-
6 or 7 quality additions or bring backs should be all that is needed, as long as we don't botch more than 1 of them. If we don't bring Bogey back, we'll need to upgrade at 1 or more positions by more and more, but that, too, is doable. I'm not sure management is prepared to trade a top prospect or two to try and fill one major need area, but I think we may have to do so, unless we spend more than I'm thinking they want to do. I do think we can field a competitive team without a major prospect trade and staying slightly under the tax line, but it's a fine needle to thread.
-
I honestly don't know. Tito had a lot more information than we did. I don't just assume Bieber was ready to go.

2021-2022 v LHPs .901 Refsnyder (137 PAs) 2020-2022 .867 Refsynder (158 PAs) 2018-2020 .800 Refsnyder (220 PAs)
-
His great versatility.
-
If we go with what we got at 1B and DH, we have a lot of choices, but many are not too encouraging, and there is not room for all of them on the 26. LHB Casas 1B/DH Hosmer DH/1B E Valdez 2B/DH (AAA) Cordero DH/LF (AAA) Duran LF/DH (AAA) W Abreu OF/DH (AAA- may not be ML ready until mid season) RHB Dalbec DH/1B/3B (2B?) (??AAA??) Refsnyder RF/DH Arroyo 2B/3B/SS/DH If Rafaela ever gets called up, maybe Dugo can DH some.
-
Yes, I think we leave the bottom 3 slots I listed "untouched," or we add a cheap depth kind of player.
-
Earlier, I wrote 4th OF'er/part time DH, but go off.
