  1. When your problem is too many injuries, Cameron Maybin is not the cure. What’s the logic here? Grab one of the most injury-prone guys in the league and hope he takes the injury meant for another player?
  2. Who traded Yoan Moncada?
  3. Tampa? They did win 90 games last year and are lead by the 2018 Cy Young Award winner. Seattle won 89 games last year and is off to a very good start...
  4. Greg Bird getting healthy...
  5. They could start the year with someone like Jedd Gyorko or Yangervais Solarte at 3b. Or spend up for Josh Donaldson...
  6. So a hitter with a .270 OBP and .430 SLG is “terrible”? Sorry, Salvador Perez. You’re terrible...
  7. But when will they show up?
  8. Eh. Sometimes people use message boards as a cathartic way of expressing frustrations. If contributing negative messages to a game thread prevents a poster from taking out his frustrations in other ways, like, say, abusing his dog, then I’m all for it. Unless it’s a poodle...
  9. The Actually a safe bet. Cora has apparently hinted he isn’t thrilled with Devers’ defense at third. He has hinted he does like Dalbec’s. And the Sox are going to need a few cheaper players in the immediate future...
  10. And the majority of them are bad defensive outfielders, which experience has shown...
  11. And that’s one reason Trout makes a bit more money than Bradley...
  12. Catcher is defense. CF and SS are the next most important positions for it. If you think CF offense only matters a little, JBJ is certainly capable of a little offense, as history has shown...
  13. He’s getting paid the same regardless of where he is. If the Sox need to add an outfielder and it costs more than 40% of the taxable amount, it makes sense to just add Castillo. And it also might slightly increase chances of moving him...
  14. If anyone was sold on Larkin’s after his 2 career IP, I wouldn’t take them very serious. But there are still available options and money might not be a limiting factor. Kimbrel? Bud Norris?
  15. I think Castillo is probably a better outfielder than Holt...
  16. Coupled with defense, he’s not the bottom. From 2016-2018, he accrued 10.2 fWAR, which was 7th among MLB center fielders. He ranked 4th in the defense component in that time, behind Kiermeier, Hamilton and Pillar. And only 0.1 behind Pillar. None of Kiermeier, Hamilton, nor Pillar had a higher fWAR overall than Bradley...
  17. Injured.
  18. Ok how about “he might be better than Colten Brewer has been”?
  19. But he’s really all the Sox have for outfield depth unless they bite the financial bullet and add Rusney to the roster. I also like Cole Sturgeon, but I don’t think he’s going to be added any time soon...
  20. He might be better than Colten Brewer...
  21. What’s wrong with Crisp and Pillar?
  22. I have a feeling this pen will look drastically different at some point...
  23. Or — Gorkys Time!!!
