    He had us signing Correa, so I think the idea was to move Devers to 1B and Bogey to 3B. (Kike at 2B.) It's not happening.
  2. moonslav59
    It's not about who has more money. It's about who is willing to spend more and perhaps tax line implications. (IMO)
  3. moonslav59
    They haven't done very well, either, but the sample is rather small.
  4. moonslav59
    We supposedly had a deal for Stallings that fell through at the last moment, so our idea of replacing Vaz might not have been so far-fetched as many felt it was, It may still happen.
  5. moonslav59
    I can't see skimping on the rotation then splurging on Correa & Susuki. I'm thing the odds are against us even getting one of those two.

    That was our easiest schedule I can remember in a long time. Yes, had we played Cincy at the end, we might have been undefeated. Opening against Ohio ST, next year under a new coach is going to be super tough. We also play Clemson, BYU & Stanford at home and NC and USC away.

    I can't imagine an Arrojo-JBJ platoon being all that effective, with Kike sliding back and forth between 2B and CF (RF?). If we sign Suzuki, then JBJ-Arroyo provide a decent platoon bench combo, but at a massive financial cost. Again, this all has to be about the prospects. (IMO)

    Agreed. We would have been throttled by Alabama in the first round. At least, we make a big bowl. Fiesta Bowl: 5 ND vs 9 Okl St Rose Bowl 7 Ohio St vs 10 Utah Sugar Bowl 6 Baylor vs 8 Ole Miss Cotton Bowl 1 AL vs 4 Cin Orange Bowl 2 MI vs 3 GA

    Hint of Suzuki? https://fansided.com/2021/12/06/seiya-suzuki-red-sox-instagram/?a_aid=36534&fbclid=IwAR28_gW_-_XlrUhikQUwW3AFYqzs_vfrH-gb5B0xjqrDXq7yHfPoA_8N0NY

    Well, they can work on setting up trades, for sure.
  11. moonslav59
    As far as I know, it's just a transaction freeze.
  12. moonslav59
    Owners are still talking to other owners and agents. When the lock out is over the moves will be announced. I doubt we suffer more than anyone else.
  13. moonslav59
    Sometimes, you make too much sense!
  14. moonslav59
    No chance of JBJ or Kike in RF?
  15. moonslav59
    I can’t see it coming close to outweighing the negative offended, and I’m afraid it might make it easier and more likely to use Kike at 2B more than I’d like to see. Now, that would improve 2B defense, but cancel the gain in the IF. If we get Suzuki, big changes are coming.
  16. moonslav59
    It's a blast! Maybe half the players like being traded.
  17. moonslav59
    Never said he was.

    Sox are one of three teams still in on Suzuki... https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/12/yankees-blue-jays-red-sox-reportedly-most-aggressive-suitors-for-seiya-suzuki.html
  22. moonslav59
    I'm wondering if we might not flip JBJ to another team for a pricey pitcher. Maybe he's the place setter for Duran. He's an awful expensive platoon/defensive 4th OF'er. The prospects are the only thing that makes this deal look like a possible winner. Emphasis on possible. I suppose he's still young enough to put up another .800+ season- or even just .775, but it seems doubtful.
  23. moonslav59
    Since so many professional players never make it to the bigs, let alone arbitration, and even less to free agency, the thought that there is a give and take is just too rare to be considered fair.
  24. moonslav59
    Bingo
  25. moonslav59
    Yes we are. They have us hooked like nicotine. I’ve all but boycotted all of MLB except the Sox. The Sox are my binky.
