  1. In all fairness, wasn't this based on someone from the organization wondering why DHam was so much improved after leaving the Sox? That does seem noteworthy, but IMO, he's not improved.
  2. The season started with Bennett, Tolle & Early in AAA. (soxprospects had Bennett starting at AA on their projection charts in January.) Now Eyanson is jumping up to AA. Maybe Holobetz or Mullins goes up to WOO next? Woo is kinda short on SP'ers, right now.
  3. Eyanson was promoted today to POR!!!
  4. AZ might have demanded Mayer & Tolle or Early for KMarte. I'm not sure I do that, maybe and unless they take Yoshida too. (Hint: they would not.)
  5. Looks that way, although Cora was resisting Duran up first for a long while.
  6. It is exciting seeing Early, Tolle and Bennett in the rotation. Gray starts, tomorrow, so I hope Bello gets bumped (pen?) - not a kid.
  7. Story up 4th is idiocy. I realize none of the 5 through 9 batter look like good choices, but Story (4th) and Durbin (7th) are the worst batters on the team, next to IKF (9th tonight.)
  8. Paredes now has a .362 OBP and a .760 OPS. His 3 HRs and 6 2Bs are low, but he's a much better batter than Durbin, Mayer, Monasterio & IKF. I still can't believe HOU would have or did said no to Duran for him.
  9. 60 Day IL: Houck (Sept/ 2027?) Casas (June/July?) Romy (June?) Oviedo (June/July?) Sandoval (imaging showed nothing) ______________________ 10-15 Day IL Gray (coming off tomorrow) Crochet (mid May?) Crawford (may go 60- June at earliest) Slaten (started rehab & will pitch again May 6 or 7th) Coulombe (May 17th is the earliest he can return) ___________________________ Anthony is flying back to BOS to visit hand specialist. Suarez has not ruled out making his next start.
  10. The way our offense is doing, it might be sooner rather than later.
  11. Facing a lefty, so I wonder if there will be a change to the line-up.
  12. Sonny better be sunny!
  13. Weird that they mentioned DHam doing better with MIL, and he is not, and should have mentioned Grissom, instead.
  14. I do think he disrespected Bregman by doubting the Cubs offer was even there. I'm not sure it was because he was a hitter.
  15. I think he wanted Bregman and felt he was a big enough bat to fill our needs. (I didn't.) When that deal fell through, there really wasn't much left, so he pivoted to pitching. I'm not sure he respected pitching more than hitting. Suarez was not his first choice.
  16. Indeed. Anthony, Duran, Story & Durbin have fallen way short of expectations, but only 2 (Contreras & Abreu plus maybe Rafaela) have met expectations. Couple this with so many injured and underperforming pitchers and it's no wonder we have sucked.
  17. True, but overall the players ages 22-26, who should be progressing/improving have, as a whole, not done so.
  18. I'd rather have Pena than Story, but I don't see a match. Paredes is good, too. One major aspect would be how much money HOU would be trying to gut. I doubt they'd take Story and prospects for Pena & Javier (a salary dump that cuts into Story's cost.) Why would HOU take Story, Yoshida and a bunch of good prospects for Pena, Paredes, Javier and Hader? I doubt JH takes on that much salary, too. I don't see a fit.
  19. Word down here in Houston is that a firesale may be brewing. The team is 14-22 and would be 9-21 had they not played the Sox 6 times. Yordan will not be traded, but he's only owed $27M x 3 (to age 32.) Javier makes $21M x 2 and would be a salary dump (Yoshida? Story?) Hader gets $19M x 3 but can't stay on the mound. Imai makes $18M x 3. Pena make $9.5M and has one arb left. Paredes gets $9.4M with an option for 2027. Yainer Diaz has 2 arbs left. Hunter Brown has 2 arbs left but is likely untouchable. RP'ers King (pre-arb) and Sousa (3 arbs) have been hurt.
  20. Whitlock may end up on the IL, at some point. Yes, no way Chapman could repeat 2025, but he has been okay.
  21. I think this is true, and our offense was about the same pre and post Devers in 2025. I think they also expected upticks from Abreu, Rafaela and maybe Mayer, Wong and others as they neared prime years.
