  1. Top OPS on the Farm (130+ PAs) 1.023 M Lugo AA/AAA 1.013 Campbell A+/AA .954 Kavadas AAA .943 JH Garcia A-/A+ .929 Gasper AA/AAA .898 Teel AA .864 Anthony AA .859 B Gonzalez A+ .855 Sogard AAA .849 Mayer AA .832 Meidroth AAA (.448 OBP) .820 C Coffey A+ .801 Jordan AA .800 Westbrook AAA .800 Alavarez AAA .782 Yorke AA/AAA .724 Bleis A-/A+ 50-129 PAs 1.063 Jo Garcia A- 1.009 Cespedes FCL (not counting today's game) .887 Valdez AAA .875 Ayubi FCL .860 Dalbec AAA .857 Arias FCL .757 Romero FCL/A+
  2. I agree. Pay 80-90% of his deal, if that's the only way to dump him. Ask for nothing back.
  3. This is getting absurd, the amount of players injured. DHam is like the back-up to back-up's back-up.
  4. I'd try to dump Yoshida and go with Ref/O'Neill at DH and back-up OF. I'd DFA or demote Dalbec, once Casas returns, but Smith and Casas both bat RH'd. (One could say which way Dalbec bats is of no significance, since he does not "bat." He K's. DHam got hurt, and I hope it's not serious, but Grissom may not be needed, at all, if our middle IF keeps going like this. Romy 2-3 w BB (now up to .717) Valdez 0-1 w BB DHam still at .776
  5. Agreed, although Smith has come on, recently... on O. .783 since May 22 (75 PAs) .879 since May 31st (47 PAs)
  6. When Bobby Dee gets us an rbi, you know things are going well.
  7. It's good to see Rafaela put together 4 weeks of decent hitting, and he also led the Sox in RBIs over the past 4 weeks, too (again.) 28 Days OPS / RBIs 1.185 Vadlez 13 .901 Devers 15 .877 Duran 12 .846 Abreu 6 (45 PAs) .811 Refsnyder 6 .805 DHam 7 (14 SB/1CS in 21 GS'd) .783 Rafaela 16 .760 Wong 9 .749 Westbrook 4 .746 Smith 10 (All others under .570)
  8. Apparently, Yoshida is not available for tonight's game, per ESPN. Our Injury Report: ETAs Day to Day: Yoshida June 17: Romy G (has been rehabbing in AAA games and went 4-6, last night) June 18: Chris Martin (expected to be activate, tomorrow) June 21: Abreu (has not started rehab, yet) June 21: Grissom (has begun baseball activities.) June 28: Mata (is rehabbing, currently and is out of options) July 2: Casas (swinging off a tee) August 1: Hendriks (throwing, now) Next Year: Giolito, Whitlock, Story and Murphy (mid '25)
  9. Yanks #1 in power rankings- overtaking PHI. BAL is #3. The listed the Sox at #12 (up from 13.) They have been anywhere between one game under .500 to two games over .500 every single day since … May 18!
  10. To whom?
  11. That was super cool. That has to rub off on the younger players, too.
  12. Agreed, and Romy G & Westbrook would get a look, before Yorke, if he's added to the 40.
  13. Much of the recent Sox success has been due to improved play from... last 14 Days OPS 1.067 Vadlez .893 DHam .857 Smith .779 Rafaela .717 Westbrook Whodathunk this?
  14. I think we stick with DHam, EValdez and Romy G/Grissom/Westbrook at middle IF for the rest of 2024. I doubt we trade for SS or 2B. I'm not sure we consider a rental type trade, but if we could find a big RHB that plays 2B, maybe... (Doubtful) I still think we make no deals that are just about 2024, unless we trade someone we are sure would not be in our future plans, anyway, and that begs the question about why would another GM want that type of player, unless it is a guy like Wink, who is apparently in the doghouse. I think we trade Jansen, no matter what. We may feel like Hendriks and ICampbell can fill a pen slot, and mayb e we try Slaten as the closer. We might trade Martin, if he is back and in form. O'Neill is another strong trade candidate, if we are sellers. Pivetta is the hardest one to trade, without it looking like a total punt on 2024. I guess we'll know more in 5-6 weeks.
  15. And, if Story ever writes a chapter in his book, there is DHam to add to the mix at 2B and middle IF. Story Valdez DHam Grissom Romy G or Westbrook Yorke (Rule 5 addition?)
  16. Lets say we add Fitts, Guerrero, Yorke, Dobbins and Lugo as Rule 5 protectees. Here might be the 40 man, before any additions or swapouts: 12 SP: Houck, Giolito, Crawford, Bello, Fitts, Criswell, Perales, Dobbins, Murphy, Walter, Winckowski, Wikelman 10 RP: Hendriks, Whitlock, Slaten, Bernardino, Weissert, Fulmer, ICampbell, Kelly, Booser, Guerrero 3 C: Wong, McGuire, ____ (Heineman or the like) 2 1B: Casas, Dalbec or the like 4 2B: DHam, Valdez, Grissom, Yorke 2 SS: Story, Romy G or Westbrook 1 3B: Devers 6 OF: Duran, Abreu, Rafaela, Refsnyder, Yoshida, Lugo Bubble to be replaced by trade or FAs
  17. Yes, I mentioned Hendriks, who will grab a slot, this summer, actually and Fulmer, but yes, Gio, Story,Whitlock and even Murphy will need slots, unless we trade Murphy. Casas will be taking a slot back, this year, too. You are right. Maybe there will be a bigger crunch than I thought. I think MVP is right about Wink being as good as gone (by trade.) My guess is that Brez & Co. have identified a few others that don't fit their plans or march to the same drum. If we weren't short on catching depth at the ML level, I could see McGuire being traded, this winter. Our OF seems crowded, and I can't see us dealing away Duran, Abreu, Rafaela or Refsnyder, but we need a big RH'd bat, and what other position has a player that fits that bill, except OF and DH. We currently have Yoshida and Ref to DH, and it may be hard to cut ties with Yoshida. Ref is great vs LHPs, and has even hit righties well, this year, but we need another RHB, besides him. Casas will not be platooned. That leaves middle IF or OF/DH. Maybe we role the dice with the same everyday roster, minus O'Neill or an O'Neill replacement, but that is very risky, unless we are counting on Story to come back, stay healthy and be that big RHB. DHam and Grissom should not be viewed as O'Neill's replacemenmt in the line-up.
  18. You must think the risk of Jh Garcia being taken is minimal. Lugo seems like he'll be grabbed by someone- not that this means we should protect him.
  19. With out lack of pitching prospects that are MLB ready, he and Murphy might be kept, despite some major questions. Agreed.
  20. I counted Anderson and Keller as gone, already, since their team control ends after 2024.
  21. He may be dealt at the deadline- likely as part of a package deal. He seemed to be redeeming the early scores given on that Beni trade.
