I think he put me on ignore after my first response to his nonsense.

Campbell hit well for about 18 games. That is not a large enough sample size to know squat. He then went 50 games and 194 PAs at a .558 OPS. The whole time he sucked on defense. This whole "He should have played SS" position is the biggest joke ever told on this site, and we've has some whoppers! Anthony's slow start was less than half the hot start sample size by KC. He was at .388 after 8 games. He hit .692 his next 8 games, then never looked back (.930 in the next 55 games and 245 PAs.) He was at .548 after 16 games, which is what KC hit in his last 50 games. To compare the "support" each had is too funny to even respond to. Roman is also a plus defender. Mayer is a plus defender as well, and was forced to play out of position with barely any time to practice 3B in AAA. Like Anthony, he struggled over his first 9 (.507,) but he found an earlier groove by going 1.041 in his next 12 games. He was at .800 after 16 games. He hit .601 in his next 28 games (86 PAs,) and played because we needed him to. When Bregman came back, he was doing well enough to stay in the bigs by playing 2B. The injury cut his ML time short.

Here is a look at our top prospects by age group: 17-21 Valera, Witherspoon, Phillips, Eyanson, Fajardo, Paez, Delzine, Travieso, D Reyes, M Patton, Ehrlicher Jose Bello, Foutch, Finley Arias, Romero, Soto, Godbout, Godbout, Cason (P,) Bleis, Cespedes, Azocar, H Ramos, H Rivas, Y Rod, Jo Garcia, Mason White, Jo Rodriguez, Nunez, Brannon, Alcantara, B Morgan, Fermin, Encarnacion, Anderson 22-25 Tolle, Perales, Clarke, Early, Holobetz, Aita Mullins, Sandlin, Wehunt, Monegro, McShane, Ingrassia, Tygart, Neely, Rogers Jh Garcia, Taylor, Castro 26+ Uberstine, Drohan, Wu-Yelland, Hoppe

Fair enough. I like Fajardo and hope he makes a jump after he's promoted. We seem to have a lot or pitchers with varying levels of promise.

I'm not sure anyone knows. All that matters is who the Sox like better, when Arias is ready and assuming Mayer is healthy. I'm leaning towards Arias being slightly better at SS by the time he's ML ready. 3B Mayer (Romero) SS Arias (Mayer) 2B Godbout (Mayer/Romero)

He's a year older and pretty much a DH only profile. I think they will gate close to the same.

Masa for Senga when? December! 🤪

LMAO! He wants you to stop responding to his posts, but keeps responding to yours. He's demanding the last word. Too funny! We know you would never let that happen. This poster is wrong more than the "poster not to be named." I never seen a poster where I disagree on nearly every word typed. He comes close.

Well said, MVP.

I think Bregman will opt out, if we don't extend him, first. If he does become a FA, I think we have a good chance to re-sign him. (Maybe the same deal but with an optout after 2 seasons.)

It's crunch time. TOR at NYY. HOU at TEX. SEA at ATL. BOS at AZ. (CLE at TBR & MV at KCR) Get it done, and we'll gain on someone!

Not for me. He has been worth about 4.0, to me.

Ceddanne's career fWAR by position: 4.3 CF (758 PAs) 0.9 SS (301 PAs) -1.1 2B (100 PAs) 4.0 overall (1170)

Brock's highs were 2.8 and 2.1 w bWAR and 2.2 & 2.0 w fWAR. Ceddane has a -0.8 faWAR at 2B, so I'm not sure the versatility factor is adding much to his overall WAR. It's 3.7 in CF. fWAR lists his total as 2.9.

I don't think it does on the comp in debate. (bWAR is more in line with what I see.)

True, but wouldn't DFA'ing Hicks essentially be doing the same thing?

Just about every injured Sox players returns after the expected date. I don't think we have to worry about any injured player being rushed back. If anything, the opposite may occur.

Let's hope we can keep the road trip mojo going.

Give up. It's no use.

I think I read somewhere that SFG did not demand we take Hicks, but maybe that also meant we wouldn't get Harrisson or Tibbs, either.

No Tolle highway.

The Sox have the best record in the AL since June 7th. That's nearly 3 months. Here are some numbers: 9-1 Giolito 2.26 9-5 Bello 2.68 9-1 Crochet 3.27 Chapman 0.31 ERA & Whitlock 1.67 ERA OPS Leaders 99+ PAs .867 Story .860 Romy .859 Anthony (IL) .822 Abreu (IL) .815 Duran .808 Refsnyder .740 Bregman .731 Rafaela .676 Narvaez .654 Yoshida .567 Wong (DHam .613 in 84 PAs)

I think, if they felt he was ML ready and the clear best choice, he'd add him to the 40 and call him up.

Very strange gameplan. The announcer wondered if Love was hurt, but he didn't look it, later in the game. ND is ranked 9th, right behind 2 other 0-1 teams (Texas and Clemson.) Remaining schedule: 19 Texas A&M 9/13 Purdue 9/20 at Arkansas 9/27 Boise St 10/4 NC State 10/11 USC 10/18 at Boston College 11/1 Navy 11/8 at Pittsburgh 11/15 Syracuse 11/22 at Stanford 11/29 (No more currently top ranked teams after A&M.)

Is this the first time this year you did not project a loss? 🫢
