  1. Chapman as a 37yo rental was not getting a package anywhere near what Duran got. Duran is over a decade younger and still has two seasons left after this one. The Sox should have been able to rival Phillies package with Bryan Clarke and Password…
  2. He’s not a lefty, but if Hicks can face 3 batters and get one out, I call it a successful outing…
  3. They are a good team, which why this was such a disappointing deadline…
  4. Who knows when he will be back, or when he will be gone again…
  5. I find it interesting they really need a 1b, but instead of acquiring one, they dealt away their top two in the minors…
  6. A lot of those guys were really young in 2004.
  7. If May was capable of making a difference, why did LA trade him?
  8. It is interesting that the Sox very likely exit the deadline with less depth at first base than they had before…
  9. 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…
  10. 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…
  11. You make it sound like a love triangle…
  12. That does make his acquisition less likely…
  13. Olney says they’re still having talks about Suarez and Cease…
  14. This all started with the unspent Devers savings. If it goes to (the right) extensions, I’m more than fine with that…
  15. 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…
  16. Not all for $30mill, which was the subject at hand…
  17. That should plug the final leak in that Padres bullpen. Opposing teams now need to do all their scoring in the first 5 innings…
  18. True. The multi-position guys can see their UZR artificially inflated if they’re any good defensively. I call this Zobristing
  19. 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…
  20. I would like to see the trades ranked by the combined weight of all the exchanged players from heaviest to lightest…
  21. 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…
  22. 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.
