1. Henry did pay for Papi for a long time. 2. They paid and are still paying Yoshida. 3. They started last year with 4 starting outfielders, clearly planning to use one as DH. And once A thing went down, they went to the Emergency Backup DH in Yoshida. The Sox have never used the DH to “rest starters,” but that is something fans always seem to want. Probably because they prefer star players not get too many days off…

A Realistic View at the 2027 Red Sox Part I

A missing season costs both sides much more. We have this “will there be another season” thing at the end of every CBA, but labor disputes haven’t interfered with a single regular season game since 1995… -
How major of an upgrade do people want at backup catcher? If they just bring back Jake Rogers, I’m fine with it…
-
I’ve heard about those two…

It’s not like we even pioneered it here. https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/4-red-sox-players-most-033500299.html

That’s exactly what I’ve been saying for 3 years. If the Ignore feature in this site actually worked, I would take Fred off it after this post… -

You were not alone. Sonny was clearly aggravated about being pulled early, although most teams in the same positions would have done the same thing (although probably not with someone as cold as Erik Miller has been). Don’t know if Sonny is one who always gets aggravated when removed or this one really got to him. If it’s the latter, it might influence his decision on his option… -
I think we saw a lot of odd-looking decisions regarding pitchers being on postseason rosters. Crochet was out on for the same reason a few others were - best option left standing. Don’t you think they would have preferred Guerrero or Slaten? Was there anyone else? Prefer Jedixson Paez? San Diego didn’t include Musgrove because they figured he was well-rested. Atlanta didn’t choose to start 31yo career minor leaguer Ray Kerr in a winner-take-all game because they were dazzled by his 18 innings this year and they didn’t miss Strider or Schwellenbach. These were the last names standing after a long season…

Dalbec is another cautionary tale for Gasper…
-
Well, he wasn’t out for 24 months…
-
Didn’t the Sox give him so limited 2b time over the last two seasons?
-
He seemed to be written out this year. Before Anthony got hurt, he was still only playing slightly more often than Monasterio and that was with Duran’s bad start (that never ended) and that Yoshida was pushing a .480 OBP…
-
I would think those 15 extremely ineffective innings Musgrove threw between A ball and AAA didn’t go far towards a TWO YEAR hiatus. If Crochet gave up 8 ER in 13 innings in Worcester, would anyone have thought “yup, ready to go”?
-
As I said, he does have options so they likely keep him. But players breaking out at 30 (31 next week) with as little MLB time as Gasper? I’m guessing it’s a very small list.
-
Joe Musgrove pitched game 1 against the Cubs this year but hadn’t pitched since September, 2024, except for a couple minor league rehab starts…
-
I have little to no faith in the journeyman Gasper, who strikes me as another Darnell McDonald type. But it wouldn’t surprise me if Boston held on to him in case he is an older second coming of Brent Rooker. He does have options left, which helps his cause…
-
Who does? He seems kind of grumpy, to be kind

While the Sox really can’t afford to go this, it’s hard to disagree… -
Did Contreras retire?
-
But if you don’t care if billionaires soend more money, then what’s the issue wuth signing guys that dont pan out?
-
I assume you’re putting Mead at 2b?
-
Did Manny?
-
Fair. Especially considering how boring Albert Abreu (yes there really was one) was as a player…
-
Why would you when Tatis is a two time Gold Glove right fielder?
