I think SLG is a very underrated stat. I can see why many like OBP better, but SLG should be given a lot more due than the massively overused and borderline useless batting average...
-
I think the Beni Ship has sailed...
-
There is a partial trade off with those teams (and Tampa) playing each other...
-
Odorizzi needs to be the priority. Three years works for any timeline. Screw the tax limit; we just reset!
-
That works too. Schoop seems to only get 1 year deals, but they have in the $6-9 mill range...
-
So... Springs and Payamps? I'd go with Brice myself, but I think Bloom likes him for some reason. Wilson would be a candidate if the Sox had another MiLB outfielder ahead of him. Maybe if they have faith in Duran?
-
How about: C: Vazquez 1B: Dalbec 2B: Chavis 3B: Devers SS: Bogaerts LF: Benintendi/Renfroe CF: E Hernandez RF: Verdugo BN: Plawecki, Arroyo, Moreland SP: Rodriguez/Odorizzi/Eovaldi/Richards/Perez BP: Ottavino/Barnes/Brasier/D Hernandez/Houck/Taylor/Whitlock/Andriese/Pivetta Just two signings away...
-
Soxprospects.com does not him on the 40 man roster yet. But they do have Ottavino, which filled it up. So someone is getting DFA'd. Guesses? I'll go with Springs...
-
More cash, but less per year. There is not a huge difference in those deals...
-
I think they are very high on Pete Crow-Armstrong...
-
Reid-Foley is in the backend of the Jays' pen. Diaz had a future value of 40 per Fangraphs prior to 2020. The equivalent Sox pitchers would be Thad Ward, Tanner Houck, Jay Groome and Brayan Bello. Matz is OK, but would you give up two from Ward, Groome and Houck for him?
-
Why Would Philly want Vaz when they just spent a fortune to bring back Realmuto?
-
Three years with a team option. The option vests if he is traded.
-
Most accounts I have seen seem to say Cherington did a good job in both the Taillon and Musgrove trades, despite not really raiding either team's farm system...
-
The Jays finally added a pitcher in Steve Matz. Bloom was probably wise to not go all in after him, as he cost the Jays three MiLB pitchers the Sox probably don't have equals for, and he has only 1 season of control. And frankly, never really lived up to his hype as a former consensus top 20 prospect, although he is not a bad pitcher. He's just not a real difference maker, and certainly not an innings eater. More of a warm body who can pitch without being a complete embarrassment...
-
Actually if the Sox spent on a few players age 30 or less with 3 or 4 year deals, they become part of the rebuild that’s in play next season. Like Odorizzi, Kela, and Schoop, which I don’t think is a ridiculous scenario. Team could compete in 2021.
-
For most GMs, the ability to assemble a winning team is 100% dependent on the budget. If ownership says “no spending”, that’s when a GM has to be good...
-
Well, maybe he needs more than 18 IP in The Show first...
-
You're getting too deep...
-
Sure. Would they take it? Probably not. Maybe the Sox should inquire about Richard Rodriguez...
-
No.. Right now we have an outfield of Benintendi, Verdugo and Renfroe. We need an actual CF and to merge HR and AB into a platoon. Unless AB actually shows signs of life...
-
And because if they waited, they knew there was a legitimate chance they would not be able to unload him...
-
Taillon was available not due to his salary. but because he was a potential difference maker. But if they had a better feeling about him alsting until July, don't you think they would have held him that long? Nothing about that Yankee offer said "We have to take this deal NOW." So why did they take it now?
-
The Jays biggest offensive weakness might be at DH, which seems like an ironic place to have one...
-
And he also frequently misses every other year with injuries. He's the same type of pitcher as Eovaldi and Richards. Talent is not the problem...
