    These are trades you want made?

    Sounds like the defensive catcher we need. Apparently, he walks a lot, so he's not a total loss on offense, ERod had some hopes, but this looks like a good deal. EValdez was DFA'd to make room. He may end up being traded, but maybe not. The roster is taking shape, although some parts are still lumpy, as in Chapman as our closer and the lack of a big RHB.

    It can never happen. According to our resident Mariners fan, none of our players are better than any Mariner players, at any position, so we have nothing to offer as an upgrade.

    Good article. I have my fears about injury, but this guy can sure pitch. 2 years is not a lot of time for what we gave up, but maybe he'll like Boston and sign an extension, to hedge against injuries.

    Anthony Franco reports that the Sox are still "on the hunt for starting pitching, " and "is still engaged on Corbin Burnes as well as mid-tier rotation targets." "That could evidently, take the form of either a free agent or a trade." Jon Morosi differs with harmony and tweeted that the Sox "are still having discussions with the Mariners regarding their starting pitching." Franco on Luis Castillo: SEA is "open to discussing" him.

    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.
  10. 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.
  14. moonslav59
    We are weak at catcher and catcher depth, but he is a high risk prospect. I kinda dislike losing Montgomery more.
  15. moonslav59
    Gasper or Hickey! Zavala or Rosario!
  16. moonslav59
    Perales is extremely talented too.
  17. moonslav59
    That also assumes Teel will be a plus catcher.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. moonslav59
    Pivetta vs Flaherty vs Buehler? I'd like manaea over any of these. (Does he cost a comp pick?)
  22. moonslav59
    We can still swoop in and offer a couple hundred K more! Imagine, the Sox outbidding someone!
  23. moonslav59
    I was really disappointed by Grissom in 2024, but I'll give him another chance. Sale's success only made it worse.
  24. moonslav59
    I think the Cubs are close to signing Kelly.
  25. moonslav59
    I think Crochet was a pivot from Burnes.
