    So it’s February 22nd. Jake Odorizzi is still unsigned. He was arguably the second best free agent starting pitcher. His demands are reportedly reasonable and for less late bloomer and off and on closer Liam Hendricks actually received. Yet no one wants Odorizzi? Either he has some medical issues or a seriously toxic personality...

    I was saying this just the other day to Dale Berra and Pete Rose Jr...

    Payamps is back!! For maybe a week...

    It’s February 22nd and you think it’s time to cut the cord? He’s on the COVID list, which means he’s either sick or been exposed. You know? That pandemic thing that was in the news...

    Can the Brewers afford to have a Boras client as their fourth OF?
  6. notin
    Maybe so. His OPS of .610 seems low, but after 204 PA, even Pedroia only had an OPS of .636. Those first 203 PA are not always representative. Of course, if Oakland thought he might turn into even a fraction of Pedroia, they might not have DFA'd him...

    The A's DFA'd CF Dustin Fowler, who should get claimed. Fowler's MLB OPS is only .610, but also only in 203 PA. In AAA, his OPS was .842. If nothing else, he could be a cheap stopgap until Duran...

    Or why the Brewers are interested in JBJ, as they have Yelich, Cain and Avisail Garcia already...
  9. notin
    Pivetta!!
  10. notin
    Cain has 2 years $35 million left. He's also 35. So it had better be a whole lot or they need to include a pretty tantalizing prospect (which is not exactly something they have a lot of)...

    Sort of like saying "at this juncture, Chris Mazza is a better pitcher than Deivi Garcia...
  12. notin
    Think you're 90 games better if the Sox have Sale and ERod? The Sox 3rd, 4th, and 5th most frequent SPs were Zack Godley, Chris Mazza and Ryan Weber.

    So move Correa to 3B. Story is actually the better all around player anyway...

    At age 23, Devers had a .793 OPS in MLB, but apparently that was not a good year. At age 23, Aaron Judge posted a .777 OPS in AAA and AA, but he has "mashed every year." Got it...

    MLBTR has a post up abouyt the Sox using a 3 man bench (which Soxprospects has had up for a while now). But they also mention Chavis as a versatile piece.. Seems to me, Chavis is the 4th option on the bench if he is on the team, barring injury. I would assume Plawecki, Arroyo and Marwin Gonzalez are all higher on the depth chart than Chavis...

    And maybe then they can bring in Correa or Story to play SS, move Bogaerts to 3B, move Devers to 1B, and move Dalbec to LF/DH...
  17. notin
    Bogaerts is the SS. Devers is the 3B. The rest of the infield is in flux...
  18. notin
    Yes, 9 games better than a Sox team that was down it's TWO bet starters. Put the Yankees in that position, and maybe Seattle replaces them as a wild card...

    Wouldn't a good leader do what was best for the team, even if it affected him personally? Or is sacrifice only for lesser players?
  20. notin
    He's 24. Think he stays 16th best 1b?
  21. notin
    How good would the Yankees have been last year without Gerrit Cole?
  22. notin
    Was Jeter really the Yankees "best player" once they acquired ARod, who was a two time MVP and worth about 40 more fWAR?
  23. notin
    Yeah I am not sure what all this "moving him to 3B" is. Who are the Sox making room for? The only other shortstops on the 40 man roster are Arroyo, Arauz, and maybe Jeter Downs. How many people is this team moving to 3b? Are they going to keep Devers there while still moving Bogaerts and Dalbec to third? I think this plan might be slightly flawed....

    ... which then turns into the other side of the exact same criticism...
  25. notin
    That was in 2014. 7 years ago. The last time Jordan Montgomery threw more than 45 innings he missed the next two seasons, but that doesn't stop the boasts about the Yankee pitching staff, which as fan as I can tell is Gerrit Cole and 4 guys who averaged 11 IP last year. And Montgomery's issues are way more recent than anything about Bogaerts, who is also the rare Boras' client who signed an extension just one year prior to free agency. In fact, in that regard, he might be an only...
