    2018 first rounder Joey Bart did debut last season...

    1. So you think going from .636 to .550 is an improvement? 2. A .550 team will win 89 games. With 2 wild cards, a team with a .550 winning percentage or below has made the postseason nearly every season...

    Fool!! Only Red Sox players have question marks upon returning from injury!! Yankee players are all like Steve Austin! They get rebuilt and come back better, stronger, faster...

    See? Another person seized an opening to tell a story I was unaware of. Gotta love it...
  6. notin
    Nah. He was just looking for an opening for a Pumpsie Green story. I do stuff like that all the time...
  7. notin
    He did strike out 14 times in 40 plate appearances. He showed the league what he needs to work on...

    My understanding is Del Castillo is a hitter not likely to stick at catcher, but Davis is a catcher who can hit...

    Also Ryan Braun’s...

    One guy getting underrated in all this (assuming the scouting is accurate) is Louisville catcher Henry Davis...

    Betts was irreplaceable. Benintendi and Bradley were both good but very replaceable. Verdugo can easily wind up being better than Benintendi or Bradley (or both!). But it seems like no one wants to see any outfielders except Renfroe and Cordero...

    Would Price have made the Sox any better last year? Hint: No. He opted out of playing. Right now the biggest problem with the Sox is Sale’s injury. With a healthy Sale, there is a greater treason to build a competitive team around him. Without Sale, it’s very difficult. And replacing Sale is next to impossible...

    So in notin's mini-mock draft, the picks are 1. Pitt takes Kumar Rocker 2. Texas takes Jack Leiter 3. Detroit takes Jud Fabian. Since these see to be the three names everyone would like the Sox to take, I am going to assume MLB GMs feel the same about them and they will all be off the board.. So who should Boston take?
  14. notin
    The Killer B's were basically Betts and two good complimentary pieces. The Sox still had 2/3 of that outfield last year...
  15. notin
    MLB.com does have the Sox taking Fabian, but passing on Leiter. (This is from December with no updates.) Propectlive.com has the Sox taking high school SS Marcelo Mayer in the March update. Fueledbysports.com has the Sox taking UCLA shortstop Matt McLain. He is the first position player taken in their draft. MyMLBdraft.com has the Sox taking McLain, Their draft strongly parallels fueledbysports (and might be the same; I am not verifying.) MVPsportstalk.com has the Sox taking Jack Leiter.

    And from the same school that gave us Brian Johnson!!

    If he is not going to make the team, it might be better to see him struggle so he gets an idea what to work on. And really, what would be more frustrating than absolutely killing it in spring training and still going back to the minors?
  18. notin
    Our 2B options are all as good or better than a player cut by a tanking team while on a minor league deal...
  19. notin
    Because he missed almost all of Spring Training and probably won’t be ready any faster than ERod?
  20. notin
    Why not Chavis at 2B and move Kike to CF with Verdugo in RF and the platoon in LF? Chavis has done as much if not more than Duran to earn a spot and is already on the 40 man roster...

    It's not a surprise and he won;t be the only pitcher who has endurance issues after a partial season in which many players opted out. It's a big part in why the Red Sox are carrying 14 pitchers right now...

    Former Red Sox manager Ron Roenicke was the brother of former Orioles slugger Gary Roenicke and the uncle to former Reds’ pitcher Josh Roenicke. I think he also had a son-in-law who plays or played...

    Felipe also had a nephew who played. I think his name was Mel Rojas (?). Felipe was his and son Moises’ manager on the Expos at one point...

    I am surly I mention of the obvious ones - Barry and Bobby Bonds. Or Cecil and Prince Fielder Father-son trivia: Many people remember when Ken Griffey Jr. and Ken Griffey Sr. made history when they became the first father-son pair to be teammates when both played for the Mariners in 1990. What father-son pair has accomplished this since?

    Danny Tartabull. He also appeared in an episode of “Seinfeld” David Segui. No appearances in “Seinfeld”
