  1. If they end up being over by $3-4M, we can think back and wonder if trading Yoshida and all but $3-4M paid out.
  2. Fred gets under my skin, sometimes, but for some reason not as much as he apparently does to others. He does make some valid points, and when someone that negative is a Sox fan who just watched us suck for 5 of the last 6 years, he tends to be "right" more often than wrong. I think that just emboldened him. I can't see how any Sox fan can't be optimist about this team. Maybe thinking they won't win a ring in '25 is understandable, but thinking the window opens in 2027 is just plain stubborn or extreme negativity. That being said, I don't really have issues with Fred, because he is respectful and knowledgeable.
  3. Agreed, but with the money we have, we should be able to replace Gio, Chapman and Wilson, in kind or re-sign/extend them all. Bring Bregman back and replace those 3 is really the only major priorities for this winter. (Maybe 1B, if we don't like Campbell there.)
  4. I was thinking of taking a break from them. I fully understand the "anger of the moment" and frustration when watching bumble and stumbles. Mix that with a few beers and you can see what we get. I know much of what is said is not fully meant to be true, but I just don't enjoy hyper negativity.
  5. Finding a taker for Yoshida would be nice, even if we may 75-80% of his deal.
  6. I though Brigham was DHam.
  7. Well, there is still Devers money left over, and soon we'll have Buehler money, Chapman & Wilson money and maybe Gio's money, too. If JH does not spend to the tax limit line, this winter, I'm gonna be really pissed. He should really go up to the second line. The window is wide open, despite Fred's 2027 claim.
  8. It would be great if KC could play decent 1B defense and find his groove at the plate. He is probably blocked from OF play, and 2B looks like a long ride to get to just decent.
  9. I think Murphy will be on the 40, next season, unless traded.
  10. I think some might be underestimating just how good our non pitching prospects are. I also see so many young players on the 40 that are locked up for 3 or more years, so the need for replenishments from the farm should be minimal. 1B (Casas hurt?) Campbell/Romy & Toro (Jh Garcia?) 3B (Bregman bolts?) Mayer, Romero 2B (Mayer or Story hurt?) Arias, Romero
  11. Arias w 3 hits
  12. Godbout 2-3 w 3BB!!
  13. There should no longer be a leash on Yoshida. Let him run free.
  14. It might take 2 healthy seasons to "prove it," and by then the contract dynamics will have changed.
  15. If 70% of pitchers were lefties, Ref would be an all star.
  16. I'm really liking the direction this team has taken since Brez took over.
  17. A single & double in his first two ABs!
  18. Tell that to Fred... oh wait, you just did! LOL!
  19. I didn't either. I just wanted a solid SP'er by more than I did not want to trade someone good. BTW, you mentioned Campbell: his best position might be OF, where we already have 4 deserving OF'ers w 3+ years of control, plus Jh Garcia, Refsnyder and even Yoshida in a pinch.
  20. Among others, as well as some SP'ers moving to the pen- maybe a little more quickly than originally expected.
  21. Does this count as some of the Devers money spent?
  22. Yes, I knew that, but I figured he might be a 0 or just -1 at 2B.
  23. Does Campbell count?
  24. We added a lot of pitchers in the draft- all but one from colleges. We should start seeing some more attrition moves.
