  1. So a hitter with a .270 OBP and .430 SLG is “terrible”? Sorry, Salvador Perez. You’re terrible...
  2. But when will they show up?
  3. 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...
  4. 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...
  5. And the majority of them are bad defensive outfielders, which experience has shown...
  6. And that’s one reason Trout makes a bit more money than Bradley...
  7. 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...
  8. 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...
  9. 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?
  10. I think Castillo is probably a better outfielder than Holt...
  11. 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...
  12. Injured.
  13. Ok how about “he might be better than Colten Brewer has been”?
  14. 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...
  15. He might be better than Colten Brewer...
  16. What’s wrong with Crisp and Pillar?
  17. I have a feeling this pen will look drastically different at some point...
  18. Or — Gorkys Time!!!
  19. I’m not even sure who the admins are, besides YOTN. And I’m actually not even sure about him. It’s one thing to complain about Yankee trolls. I tried posting on a Yankee board once was back on ESPN with a comment that was critical of a player but explicitly baseball-related. And I found myself immediately banned for failure to perform Pinstriped Fellatio. Ever since then, I’m all for banning blatant Yankee trolls. But complaining about Sox posters or even respectable yet misguided Yankee fans? It’s a Red Sox board! It’s incomplete without some Yankee presence! And I am ok with all Sox fans, whether I agree with them or not... S
  20. That sounds like Porcello’s problem...
  21. Or took Nunez. Kennedy is owed $16.5mill next season as well...
  22. I Can we get Bolt?
  23. Devers and Chatham for Merrifield and the contract of Kennedy? Cesar Hernandez of Philadelphia is another underrated 2b who might be available if the Phillies decide Scott Kingery needs to play everyday once he gets off the IL...
