    Bregman or Bichette isn't even enough, anyway. We're running out of options. Tucker never was one. We aren't signing a pitcher large and long. Who here thinks we are going to get two big names out of the half dozen- if that= remaining choices?
  2. moonslav59
    This is probably why we don't trade for KMarte, either. His deal is too long. Hell, we can't even sign Polanco to $21M x 2.
  3. moonslav59
    There is still time to right the ship, but it's not looking good. What a waste of a window this looks to be.
  4. moonslav59
    $20M x 2 is the type of deal Brez could have made.
  5. moonslav59
    Not by himself. I have been saying we need 2 big bats for months. Now that Alonso & Schwarber are gone, maybe the best we can do is Bregman/Suarez & Marte (assuming Mayer is part of the Marte trade.) Even then, I'm not sure it's enough.
  6. moonslav59
    Although Ceddanne cuts off about $6M on the AAV, JH would not permit this trade.
  7. moonslav59
    2024-2025: 40 HRs per 162. (74 total) He's probably the best still out there.
  8. moonslav59
    Yes, excellent... “If you’re always rational about every free agent, you will finish third on every free agent.”
  9. moonslav59
    If Casas returns to pre-2025 form, he needs no platoon. Big if, though.
  10. moonslav59
    How does this change the fact that all three had very good numbers, when combined, and we lost them all? Just bringing Bregman back or replacing him with Bichette does not get us back to even- overall. Yes, we can project more production from Anthony & Mayer and maybe others, but we cannot say our offense will be as good as 2025. Plus, the 2025 offense wasn't good enough to carry us through the playoffs.
  11. moonslav59
    Huh?
  12. moonslav59
    Then the whole cake got traded to SF, the cupcake opted out plus the Gio crumb said bye bye
  13. moonslav59
    I’m against quantity . We lost more than Bregman. The others lost did as good as he did combined and for more PS combined. i want 2 and have been consistent on that.
  14. moonslav59
    You assume Anthony replaces Devers, Ref and Lowe?
  15. moonslav59
    Same or better. whar about Devers+Ref+ Lowe? That’s 650 PAs there of .825+ hitting.
  16. moonslav59
    I won’t be shocked if we settle on crumbs, again
  17. moonslav59
    Not if they honestly believed their offer had a chance
  18. moonslav59
    Hardly even close to ridiculous. im expecting normal injuries, progressions and regressions and this team looks way worse than last year, and we are two big bats away from being the same or better. its ridiculous to not see that.
  19. moonslav59
    Not surprising

    My updated top prospects list: 1. Tolle 2. Early 3. Perales 4. Arias 5. Witherspoon 6. Valera 7. Fajardo 8. Gonzales 9. Godbout 10. Phillips 11. Soto 12. Holobetz 13. Eyanson 14. Romero 15. Jo Garcia 16. Delzine 17. Sandlin 18. Mullins 19. Ramos 20. Rivas
  21. moonslav59
    The thing that gets me is that plan B (K Marte) will cost players/prospects and cash, when Alonso was just cash. What's plan C, because chances are plan B ain't happening. either. Bregman and Polanco? Plan D? Suarez and Polanco? We're gonna outbid two teams? LMAO!
  22. moonslav59
    Why? So when he and Anthony are primed, we pass on getting help, again?
  23. moonslav59
    These guys have to know their offers are woefully short, yet they keep letting the press know they are "interested" in so and so. Do they really think that please fans to know we are "trying?" It's not trying. It's deception and hocus pocus shams. You can't say you were serious about signing Soto and then say we can't afford to outbid the O's for Alonso at a small fraction of the reported offer for Juan. We'll be outbid for the runner ups, too, and this point, I'm about ready to think what difference does it make. Signing Bregman gets us close to where we were before- barely squeaking into the playoffs and an early exit.

    Paez was #20 on soxprospects,com. We've traded #6 Garcia and #19 Travieso for Oviedo and a couple prospects (Samaniego & Guzman) We've traded #8 Clarke with Fitts for Sonny Gray We've traded unranked Justin Riemer for Ryan Watson (Rule 5) We traded Grissom for a prospect Isaiah Jackson. Some players will move up by attrition. I'm not sure where Watson will place. I think they mentioned Samaniego might place in the 30's and Guzman in the 40's. Jackson may place somewhere.

    There was a worry about what to do with Mayer, if we signed Bregman and traded for Marte, but now we hear AZ is asking for Mayer, so that would solve that issue. Are Bregman and Marte enough? At this point, it's probably the best we could do, but "could" is so very far away from "will do." In this scenario, I'd be fine hoping Casas returns to form, and we'd have Romy as a decent back-up out of the gate. He does seem better than Toro, Garrett Cooper and the like. We'd still have Duran, so the O would not take the hit by trading him, but I still think it is wasteful playing him at DH, and that's not even counting the benching of an $18M .775 hitter, so the .775 Duran can DH. 1. L Anthony LF/RF 2. R Bregman 3B 3. L Duran DH 4. S Marte 2B 5. R Story SS 6. L Abreu RF/R Campbell LF 7. L Casas 1B/ R Romy 1B 8. R Narvaez C 9. Rafaela CF Or, we trade Rafaela, save $6M a year, and DH Masa.
