    BTV is using a projection that has him as a 2-2.1 fWAR player. If they have him getting paid $25-26mill in the next two years but only generating $37mill in WAR, there is your surplus value of $11mill. My guesses had him performing slightly better and getting paid slightly less..

    With Bellinger, Bichette, Valdez and Tucker still unsigned, rankings will change…

    Not really. In fact, with Crochet, Suarez, Bello, Sandoval, Crawford, Gray and Oviedo, I’m not sure how many of these starting pitchers have options left. I think Oviedo does..

    I could see Paredes surplus value at $17-24mill. Over the next 2 years, he probably makes $20-23 mill. In that time, he is probably worth 5-5.5 fWAR, valued at about $40-44mill A mean surplus value of $20.5 seems fair…

    Saw him a lot, too, during his brief stay in Chicago. Dead pull hitter. Has really good power when he pulls the ball. I thought his defense was nothing special. Hes not bad or anything. Just didn’t excel. Awful, awful haircut…

    Fans always overvalue their own. That said - Bello for Paredes straight up. Who says no? (Besides BTV…)

    On BTV, Bello plus Duran gets you Ketel Marte. Honestly, AZ would be stupid to turn that down…
  8. notin
    Based on what? Paredes makes more money (even if loses his arbitration, which he won’t), has fewer years of control, and accrues fewer WAR…

    Why not Duran?
  10. notin
    Trade Duran for an infielder nowy
  11. notin
    BTV overvalued Duran? He has as many fWAR in the past two seasons as Ketel Marte and more than Trea Turner…

    3 one year deals…

    I never knew the plural of Suarez. Thank you…
  14. notin
    He was out in the garage peppering the wall with bullets…

    It won’t be Stott…

    Bleis and Romero?

    I like Hoerner, who is an excellent all around 2b. Breslow, the former Cubs farm director, might have stronger preferences for Massachusetts native Matt Shaw, who was the Cubs first round pick in his final year with the organization…

    While he brought in a lot for 2013, it was on the heels of unloading a lot in 2012. And even then, not one of those contracts was longer than 3 years…

    Cherington didn’t have the same kind of free rein to spend. He had to juggle salaries just to get Marco Scutaro on the roster at one point…

    No. What people are tired of is waiting on comebacks that don’t pan out. I don’t recall anyone being upset with Aroldis Chapman last year…

    I’d just assume go with Early. Focus on 3b/2b (or SS if an opportunity arises) and bullpen…
  22. notin
    That’s another option. Theres not much available for good shortstops on both sides of the ball right now. My prediction right now thr Sox will wind up with Alec Bohm at 3b. I have mixed emotions there. Most of them are not good…
  23. notin
    No. I will just repeatedly needle my daughter for stopping her dislike of him for the exact reason I did…
  24. notin
    If the Sox are focusing on run prevention, then get a better SS. Push Story back to 2b. Mayer is fine at 3b…
  25. notin
    My silver lining is I can go back to hating Alex Bregman, although he actually did seem to be a pretty positive addition overall. Still, it’s nice to have the option again. But I’ll probably see him play in person at least half a dozen times this year…
