    If May was capable of making a difference, why did LA trade him?

    It is interesting that the Sox very likely exit the deadline with less depth at first base than they had before…

    Not for Duran, no…

    Ethan Salas is still there…

    The Rangers did add LHRP Danny Coulombe, which is not nothing. Has pluses and minuses compared to Matz. Yankees also added Colorado RHRP Jake Bird Astros also acquired OF Jesus Sánchez from Miami…

    Maybe. Laureano has been hot recently, but this will be his 6th in less than 3 seasons, and he’s not bouncing around like that because he’s always awesome…

    You make it sound like a love triangle…
  8. notin
    That does make his acquisition less likely…

    Olney says they’re still having talks about Suarez and Cease…

    This all started with the unspent Devers savings. If it goes to (the right) extensions, I’m more than fine with that…

    I hope they make other plans. This guy keeps injuring himself with routine baseball activities. That’s ok for someone like me, whom did not make his living playing baseball. But for Casas, it’s a concern…

    Not all for $30mill, which was the subject at hand…
  13. notin
    That should plug the final leak in that Padres bullpen. Opposing teams now need to do all their scoring in the first 5 innings…

    True. The multi-position guys can see their UZR artificially inflated if they’re any good defensively. I call this Zobristing

    Bubic is done for the year…
  16. notin
    Some defensive metrics do trend towards being cumulative. You cannot save as many defensive runs if you’re not on the field. UZR also seems to favor players who play multiple positions…

    I would like to see the trades ranked by the combined weight of all the exchanged players from heaviest to lightest…

    He did extend Rafaela, sign a GG third baseman, and bring in a good defensive catcher. Sox defense is really only weak at 2b, at least until Mayer returns. 1b is arguable as part timers have a disadvantage on metrics…

    Marte has made one start in the OF. CES has played 65 games in the past two years. It’s hard to establish any WAR when you’re not playing. Don’t forget; WAR trends towards being cumulative. In this case, I know his 2024 was marred with injuries. I thought Hayes was an odd fit, especially for a team with fringey outfielders.

    Suarez and Schwarber will be free agents. Wheeler is talking about retiring. Nola is already falling apart. And they had no closer. Oh and the Mets are right there. Their urgency is not surprising…
  21. notin
    He also could return to 2b. Not like Hamilton is killing it…

    Most confusing leaguewide trade from day one. - Ke’Bryan Hayes to the Reds. With Noelvi Marte, Spencer Steer, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, Santiago Espinal and whoever is in their minors, not sure about the logic here. “We have a lot of corner infielders, but what we’re missing is one with an OPS+ of 60 and is still owed over $36million.”
  23. notin
    SP and a 1b. Although the 1b market looks weak…

    I do think Password is a prime trade candidate, as he is pretty blocked from the Sox OF. But I think if he is dealt in the next 24 hours, it might make more sense to deal him for Carter Jensen in KC. Given the depth of each team at OF and catcher, some stars do align. Tibbs ($9.1mill ) alone is a perfect BTV matchup for Cease (also $9.1mill), but I think they might prefer a corner OF who is a bit more MLB-ready…

    Apparently not as obvious as you think. Before trading Devers, the Sox averaged 4.84 runs per game. Since the trade, they are averaging 3.83 runs per game. It’s not hitters picking up the slack. The improvement has been the pitching…
