    i'm liking it more and more.

    Would you or the CWS have substituted Cespedes and Bleis for Montgomery? How about Mayer, Bleis, Meidroth, Wikelman vs Teel, Montgomery, Meidroth, Cespedes? Mayer, Bleis, Cespedes & Meidroth (no Monty & Wikelman?)

    You know this?

    One encouraging thing about Crochet's second half numbers: his last 3 starts- 4 IP each: 0.75 ERA (0.42 FIP) .460 OPS Against 18 Ks and 1 BB This should show he did not end the season with some sort of undisclosed injury.
  5. moonslav59
    His K numbers got a little better, but... OPS Against: .569 first 20 games (10 HRs in 107 IP) .823 last 12. (8 Hrs in 39 IP) He was not the same.

    For two years, Crochet will cost way less than Fried, and by the third year, Fried might be fried.

    With the loss of 3 top 8 prospects plus #18 Wikelman, soxprospects.com's top 20 would be: 1. Anthony 2. Campbell 3. Mayer 4. Perales 5. Arias 6. Blies, 7. Cespedes, 8. Dobbins, 9. Fitts, 10. Tolle 11. Sandlin, 12. Jh Garcia, 13, Romero, 14. Early, 15. Jo Garcia 16. Cason, 17. Guerrero, 18. Castro, 19. Valera, 20. Penrod The farm took a pretty big hit, today.

    We've signed so many injury-prone pitchers over the years, this worries me. His poor second half makes me wonder, if he was about to go on the IL.
  9. moonslav59
    We are weak at catcher and catcher depth, but he is a high risk prospect. I kinda dislike losing Montgomery more.
  10. moonslav59
    Gasper or Hickey! Zavala or Rosario!
  11. moonslav59
    Perales is extremely talented too.
  12. moonslav59
    That also assumes Teel will be a plus catcher.
  13. moonslav59
    Since Manaea would cost a comp pick, and signing Pivetta would lose a pick we would have gained when he signs elsewhere, would Flaherty be the guy we seek? How about revisiting the pen needs? Scott, Hoffman, Estevez or even Kittredge, Yates or ___? I do not think Quintana or Heaney are upgrades over Crawford.
  14. moonslav59
    They could have resigned him, even at his age. Now, that he's even older, let's get him for just the last year of an overpaid contract. NOT! If they take Yoshida and $35M out of $54M owed for Vaz, okay.
  15. moonslav59
    They tend to undervalue unproven prospects, but Montgomery has yet to play any proball. I can see thinking this was fair. I think subbing Cespedes or Bleis for Montgomery looks closer, but not on BTV.
  16. moonslav59
    Pivetta vs Flaherty vs Buehler? I'd like manaea over any of these. (Does he cost a comp pick?)
  17. moonslav59
    We can still swoop in and offer a couple hundred K more! Imagine, the Sox outbidding someone!
  18. moonslav59
    I was really disappointed by Grissom in 2024, but I'll give him another chance. Sale's success only made it worse.
  19. moonslav59
    I think the Cubs are close to signing Kelly.
  20. moonslav59
    I think Crochet was a pivot from Burnes.
  21. moonslav59
    Me, too. But, if JH was going to keep a tight budget, maybe signing him means nobody else for a couple years.
  22. moonslav59
    Why is Vaz everyone's favorite catcher, now. We traded him away for a reason. He does not get the most out of his staff. He's okay to good on defense and is better than Wong, but at $10M, why? I'd rather sign Elias Diaz for half that money. Now that we have Crochet, do we look to add someone like Pivetta plus maybe a pen arm like Yates or Kittredge, and then swap Abreu for a RH'd version of himself? I'll still be underwhelmed, but at least some sort of effort will have been made.
  23. moonslav59
    Now, factor in age and projected decline.
  24. moonslav59
    You called me out, and you were right. I was wrong. It costs much more than I imagined.
  25. moonslav59
    Yup. Within the context of having Crochet, I would not mind having Pivetta start over Crawford, and beef up the pen by putting an innings eater, like Crawford in the pen.
