    When the Rays have guys like B Lowe just about killing the Sox way more than any other team, our chances at winning diminished.
  2. moonslav59
    No Refsnyder in your "lucky" column?
  3. moonslav59
    The facts can be blinding- I know.
  4. moonslav59
    I don't think anyone else said it, except you when mocking me.

    I was surprised, for sure. I'm also surprised Durbin has been this bad, Oviedo got hurt, Sandoval wont pitch even 1 inning with us and more. I'm surprised Devers has sucked, and yet that deal is still unliked by some. Was it lucky we passed on Alonso & Bichette? IMO, we lucked out not signing Bregman.

    Like just BA, okay... .283 MLB Masa .262 Abreu & Duran .258 Contreras To me BBs and SLG is part of hitting, too.... OBP: .353 Contreras .341 Yoshida .334 Abreu .324 Duran SLG .465 Abreu .459 Contreras .423 Yoshida .344 Duran

    I will point out that we call it lucky when Brez strikes gold, but he sucks when a deal goes badly.
  8. moonslav59
    It is rather stunning. He had a career 4.7 BB/9 before BOS, 5.4 from 2019 to 2024 and 6.0 from 2021-2024. It was 6.4 the year before BOS! It's been 2.2 with the Sox

    An objective viewer might actually think Brez did well with the Devers trade (dump.)
  10. moonslav59
    YRod, Romero & Uberstine? LOL
  11. moonslav59
    Shaw has been used mostly in the OF (112 innings) in 2026. He's played 3B 26 innings and 1B for 10 innings. In 2025 it was 1010 innings at 3B and 6 at 2B. Would the CHC take Duran for Shaw, now? Would we have to add a Phillips or Holobetz or more?
  12. moonslav59
    Yes to all of this, but these were guys mentioned that are young enough for Joe to maybe have considered. In hindsight, trading for Hoerner and extending him might have been our best choice. I agree that Neto as an almost impossible get. Paredes or matthews might have been the most "gettable," but apparently HOU did not want Duran badly enough, or Brez valued Duran too much to get a deal done.
  13. moonslav59
    Makes sense, so he still would need to be added to the 40 by DEC 2027 to avoid Rule 5, but gains a year of control, right?
  14. moonslav59
    Catcher Ronny Hernandez made his mark in his organizational debut. A day after his activation by Greenville, Hernandez was 4 for 4, blasting a solo home run in the seventh inning and a game-tying solo shot in the ninth. He scored four runs and drove in two... -Soxprospects.com

    The farm was called too pitcher orientated after years of being the reverse. This is a good sign that it is more balanced than expected.
  16. moonslav59
    Better than Contreras & Abreu?
  17. moonslav59
    Catcher OPS has gone from .653 to .642. Yes, Narvaez has dipped, but Wong's rise has almost erased that. I'd call Catcher even. SP looks better by names but not by results.
  18. moonslav59
    What's an "option year?" He can choose to opt out of a Rule 5 draft in '27?
  19. moonslav59
    Agreed- really good. Abreu is good. Anthony may become good, really good or great, but it might not be this year or even next. There is a slight hope Duran reverts to 2024 Duran, but I'm not holding my breath.
  20. moonslav59
    Abreu's catch was HUGE!
  21. moonslav59
    A night for dingers, for sure!
  22. moonslav59
    It wasn't a long linger, but Framber is a tightly wound up coil.
  23. moonslav59
    Nice win, and no need for Chapman.
  24. moonslav59
    Some discussed winter targets and their ages. CHC: Hoerner turns 29 soon and Matt Shaw 24. HOU: Paredes is 27 and Matthews is 24. LAA: Neto is 25 (not sure available) CIN: Matt McLain turns 27 this August but is at .631 since the start of 2025. Donovan is 29 and B Lowe is 31, but they did not have many years of control left.
  25. moonslav59
    I don't think there are exceptions. If selected at age 18 or younger, it's 5 years/ 19 and older is 4 years then Rule 5. Valera is eligible DEC 2027, so maybe he pitches some in 2027, and we know more.
