  1. 1. Give Arias a shot at short. Monasterio to 2b, until his bat stops playing. 2. Trade for a LF and maybe some pitching. 1SO and one RP. More for depth. 3. Dump Duran out in SD for a solid bench bat in Ty France. 4. Read duck boat manual and learn safety procedures.
  2. We just watched a very limited range SS let an easy double play groundball go through for a hit leading to a 3-run inning. Per StatCast, Abrams range ranks in the bottom 1%, which is as bad as it gets. Sure, more RBIs. But how many of them does he give back? Just use the MI players we have. Including Arias…
  3. Monasterio really is a bad SS. Either call up Arias or call up Cheng. Monasterio can move to 2b…
  4. Or the flip side - what are you fixing? The Sox are 27-5 in their last 32 games, including 11-0 against teams in first place. They’ve done that with guys named Seigler, Monasterio, Narvaez, etc playing every day. They’re 12-1 with Cheng and Seigler starting at SS and 2b. Why bring someone like Abrams into the mix? It’s not broken. Also it’s beyond silly to make Arias expendable because Campbell didn’t make an immediate impact
  5. That is rare nowadays, but the Dodgers do have a 2,500 hour window to work out an extension…
  6. Actually last year baseball-reference credited him with 2.6 oWAR and 2.8 dWAR…
  7. Well, it’s 5 years of Marte vs 2 months of Skubal. I didn’t think the Sox would deal Eyanson plus Arias for 2 months of Skubal..
  8. No, Uberstine was an exaggeration. I’m really not seeing the “ hey this is what we got for our two time Cy Young winner” value in River Ryan. Especially post- injury…
  9. I hope they don’t waste time upgrading catcher. There’s a reason catchers rarely move at the deadline. LF, SP and RP. And if they add a veteran bench bat like a Ty France, that’s fine
  10. Playing an ungodly 27-5 in their last 32 games hopefully swung a few people...
  11. Back then, everyone had Mayer in their top 15, and i some cases top 10 prospects for all of MLB. I do not think any values him that way today....
  12. But the Orioles have also already traded away Dean Kremer. Granted, not a key piece of their staff this year.
  13. I admit I find that surprising, Or I'm surprised that none of Baseball America, MLB.com or Baseball Prospectus have ever ranked him anywhere.. Fangraphs gives him a future value of 50, which is very high, but none of this does Detroit any good if he cannot ever take the mound...
  14. I don’t see it happening without Arias. Especially since most (all?) organizations prefer quality over quantity…
  15. I don’t see the Royals unloading Witt for a slew of prospects just so they can hope and dream one of them turns into the next Bobby Witt and they can revisit this exact same scenario in 4 or 5 years…
  16. Mayer for Rutschman? An IL for an IL. Very biblical trade…
  17. I think all of our catcher rumors are red herrings. Possible this trend started last year with all of that empty Dalton Rushing chatter…
  18. You want Red to admit he was wrong? It’s easier to get water to claim it’s not wet…
  19. Thats the “glass half full” description. Now I see a 27 year old pitcher coming off TJ with a 4.68 ERA in AAA and a pedigree built on all of 20 MLB innings (pre-injury) and no Top 100 ranking anywhere per baseball-reference. I don’t see him as the #2 piece for the top pitcher in MLB, even as a rental. (Hope does make some sense as a top piece.) If the Sox were selling, would you like to see River Ryan as part of the package for Chapman or Gray?
  20. I struggle to believe half of those teams are looking for catchers…
