Not all "we".

What's the magic number in the Grapefruit league, now?
-
Maybe because someone will offer something for one of them, and you'd miss out on upgrading your catcher position by a little bit.
-
Wait until the state is 10 feet underwater after the ice caps melt.

MLBTR projected $24M/2. If he starts 23, he'll be doing well enough to deserve the money.
-
There's also not as many days off as is usual for the start of seasons. I like the idea.
-
I bought mine for $155 11 years ago. We just paid it off. Houses like mine are selling for $225 now, so I'm happy, but with the interest I paid, I'm still not at a profit. (Cheaper than renting, for sure!.)
-
Wasn't meant to be, but do you really think these teams would not sell for a hefty profit right now? Recent purchases: 800M SDP in 2012 615M HOU in 2011 593M TX in 2010 845M Cubs in 2009 450M ATL in 2007

I wish my house tripled in value over 5-10 years.
-
Yes, but even teams sold shortly after purchase normally make big bucks. http://www.afootinthebox.com/peter/every-mlb-teams-purchase-price-and-value-today

It just goes to show us how much money is made in baseball. 162 games TV Concessions Memorabilia Playoffs Look how much teams sell for compared to their purchase price!
-
I agree, but if we really need a RP'er later in the year and DH is doing well, I could see them maybe calling him up for the pen and to limit his IP over the full season. I want to keep him starting. Porcello will likely be gone next year, and if we want to keep Sale, Betts and maybe JD, we will need some talent on the roster making squat.

Mike Trout and Angels agrees to 12 year / 430 MIL
moonslav59 replied to redsoxrules's topic in Other Baseball
$35.83M a year for 12 years. Is Mookie worth $35M x 10? $36M x 8? $34M x 12? -
"Can't make a full season?" He's one of the top IP pitchers over the last 5-7 years. He's had 26 or more starts for 7 straight years, including 5 seasons with 30+. If you count his 3 playoff starts last year, he's stared 30+ games in 6 of the last 7 seasons with 4 straight going into 2019. He led the league in IP in 2017. Am I concerned? Yes, but let's not say he hasn't shown he can last a full season. He's been a horse, until late last year and one other brief time way back in 2014.

Leon probably has the least chance of being selected, but I'm not sure that's the top criteria we should use. Leon's biggest strength is his built up relationship with Sale and Price (and a little bit with Porcello). That has enormous (IMO) value to the Sox but not really to other teams.
-
I'm all for caution, but he's either ready or he's not. To me, it doesn't seem like another week matters, but again, I trust Cora & DD.
-
What if we keep Swihart and he never works out offensively either? It's not like the guy has a long record of raking the ball. .702 in A Ball (age 20) .794 in A+ (age 21) .843 in AA (age 22) .659 in AAA (22) .738 AA/AAA (23) .712 MLB (age 23) .720 MLB (24) in 74 PAs .655 AAA (24) .539 AAA (25) .575 Gulf RK (25) .613 MLB (age 26) I may be going blind, but I don't see how these numbers look any more encouraging than Leon or Vaz. Leon: .856 AA/AAA (age 23) 231 PAs .722 MLB (23) 33 PAs .528 MLB (24) 374 PAs .938 VEWL (24) 142 PAs .447 MLB (25) 70 PAs .692 AAA (25) 193 PAs .676 AAA (26) 111 PAs .439 MLB (26) 128 PAs .845 MLB (27) 283 PAs .655 AAA (27) 130 .644 MLB (28) 301 .511 MLB (29) 288 Vaz: .782 A/A+ (ages 19-20) .713 A+/AA (21) 424 PAs .824 AZFl (21) 43 .976 PRWL (21) 28 .771 AA (22) 399 .721 AAA (23) 270 .617 MLB (23) 201 .644 PRWL (24) 119 .713 AAA (25) 171 .585 MLB (25) 184 .735 MLB (26) 345 .540 MLB (27) 269 They all have had some decent to good seasons and some really bad ones.

...or waiting for the season to begin to announce it.
-
I can see your point, and you guys may be facing the same type of choices someday.
-
No. I'm not sure he opts out at all, and if he doesn't we may have $130+M in 4 players in 2021: Betts, Sale, Price & JD. It will only be for 1 year, but 2020, with a Sale extension and Betts' arb will be a lot as well.
-
...and there are many reasons to keep each of them, too.
-
Good points, but we are starting on the warm west coast.
-
I doubt we stick with a 13 man staff for long, and we do have Holt & Nunez who can play IF/OF and a DH who can play OF. What hurts of bench flex the most is carrying 2 basically 1B only 1Bmen. 1B might be Swiharts best defensive position, too. (Holt can play 1B, too, and we have Chavis.)
-
Pedey did not have further surgery. He's had a long time to get ready for ST'ing and opening day. It seems weird he'd need a week more, but I trust Sox management on this. (It's Mejia not Mojica.) Soxprospects.com has Colten Brewer as the 13th pitcher.
-
Yes, they'd be happy if the Sox won only 3 of 4.
