    notin, meet Sigmund.
  2. moonslav59
    Since Mayer can play 3B or 2B, if Arias makes it and sticks in the bigs, we'll be looking good.

    One idea would be to sell every asset that is a FA after this year. Surely, that would add to a better outlook for 2026 and beyond. Unless we spend the money saved with the Devers trade and departing contracts, it would all be for nothing. (Note: I am not for selling, but if we did, we'd likely be a top contender in 2026, if we just spent to the tax line, without going over. Assuming we have a success rate like last winter.)

    1. Other top teams have more than 3 holes. 2. If we cant fill 3 big holes and a back-up catcher (You missed closer), while losing the Devers contract, all I can say is "Wow!" 3. Last offseason, we filled over 6 big holes, not counting some filled by prospects: Ace: Crochet 3B & RHB: Bregman Closer: Chapman Catcher: Narvaez (was supposed to be the back-up) LHP/Set Up man: Wilson #2/3 SP: Buehler (has not worked out well, so far) (We also signed Sandoval & Toro.) We lose a lot of contracts, this winter. Your outlook is overly bleak.

    Sox are 4th in wins in the AL (T6th in fewest losses.) 56-48 NYY 55-49 SEA 56-50 BOS (1GB NYY and T w SEA) 55-50 TEX (-0.5 GB SEA & BOS from WC)

    I like the $12M club option on Yandy for '26. Maybe we could pry Garrett Clevinger from the Rays in the deal. (He has 2 arbs left and is a nice lefty RP'er.) What would it take to get Diaz & Clevinger? I doubt they want Casas (to DH) and would likely hang up, if at least Campbell is not headlining the package. Maybe Campbell, Bleis, Cespedes & Sandlin?

    All teams have holes to fill, and at least 20 have more than we do. We have a solid core of young to very young players, with mostly low cost salaries and several years of control. Even our weakest everyday positions have some hopes: 1B: Casas, Campbell-Romy 2B: Mayer, Campbell-Romy (Assuming Bregman returns) We will need to fill the Chapman, Wilson & Gio holes, but we should have the money, and 4-5 holes is not as bad as you seem to think it is. How many holes will the Yanks, Astors, Tigers and Jays have, this winter? (4-5 minimum.)
  9. moonslav59
    Maintain value, yes, but not as high as it looked when he was over .800.
  10. moonslav59
    Joe Ryan just turned 29. He has seen his WHIP go from a decent 1.169 in 2023 to 0.985 to 0.903 over the past 2 years. .657 OPS Against in 2024 (.593 in '25.) Crochet was at .642, last year. I'm not a Duran hater by any means. He's an offensive weapon, and our offense sputters, too often. I dislike trading him, but the step down to his back up (Anthony) already has a higher OPS, is cheaper and rates to get way better. I'd trade Duran, Arias, DHam, Early and Sandlin for Ryan and their Duran. (Please say no to Vaz.)
  11. moonslav59
    I'm starting to worry if Arias can hold his trade value. He's been in an awful slump and is now down to .691.
  12. moonslav59
    Grissom homered, again, and Campbell had 3 hits. Rosario homered twice to help Tolle get win. (5IP, 2H, 1ER, 1BB, 4K: 1.96 ERA) Song got the 1.2 IP save. GRE & SAL lost and scored just 1 run, total, but Fajardo went 5.1, 5H, 0ER, 2BB, 3K. (We got him for Cam Booser.)
  13. moonslav59
    Yes. As of now, we are 3-4 in our last 7. (We are also 3-3 in our last 6 ve very good teams.)
  14. moonslav59
    I respect all you say, Fred. I really do, but that 3-4 years away mantra is tough to not think you've gone too far.
  15. moonslav59
    15Ks by Sox pitchers! Wow! Nice game.
  16. moonslav59
    The Dodgers have 5 guys at .747 or lower in tonight's line-up. We have two. Don't just look at the glitzy top 2-3 batters to determine who has the better line-up. (They do have 4 guys over .820, while we have 3, balance beats a couple or three beasts.
  17. moonslav59
    Judge out with elbow issue.
  18. moonslav59
    Play some D might help. We have enough DHs. That b eing said, he should get a look over DHam and others.
  19. moonslav59
    Jh Garcia hits both RHPs and LHPs well enough, and then some. He's good on D, but most likely corner OF. I think some short-change him.
  20. moonslav59
    Kerrrr- PLUNK!
  21. moonslav59
    Wong, Casas, Campbell, Jh Garcia, Valera & Early for Kurtz & Miller
  22. moonslav59
    Leave Vazquez out of the deal.
  23. moonslav59
    I missed the injury update. Typical Red Sox move.
  24. moonslav59
    I disagree. Yoshida, almost all his money plus Garcia and Romero would be a very competitive offer. Subbing Arias for Romero would seal the deal, IMO.
  25. moonslav59
    If we get a really good SP'er (hopefully not a rental) I'd be fine with no RP'er. We could move Fitts or use Sandoval in relief.
