Reportedly they lost the team over some forced makeup games on a scheduled off day. It had nothing to do with Tito with the exception of his ability to reign the team back in...
-
Why? In the words of AJ Pierzynski on that whole thing. “I’ve been on 3 different teams and seen that in 3 different clubhouses.” Why do some fans think the Red Sox have to be held up to the ideals of their high school coach as opposed to normal MLB behavior?
-
Not big spending teams. Just the Yankees. I believe the new CBA will be very specific in this regard. Apparently any adjustment to the luxury tax threshold won’t be applied to Betts or Bogaerts if they get new deals in Boston. That benefit is solely reserved for Judge...
-
Has anyone topped the rumored $25mi yet? Let’s see him get offer at least $26mill before we assume he gets $30...
-
So Bogaerts will top Machado’s offers? It is intersting that all Sox players will command well beyond market dollars to resign, but the new CBA will benefit the Yankees for retaining Torres, Severino and Andujar. Which side do you think the current CBA favors?

The Yankee farm might not be as great as you think. MLB.com had only one prospect (Flovial) ranked ahead of Chavis at 69. Loasigia (sp?) was technically ranked ahead at 66, but really he was so close it was essentially equal. Bleacher Report does give the Yankees 2 top 100 and 3 Tier 2 prospects, but acknowledges at best, the Yankee farm is average. And BR seems to be the only one ranking the Yankee farm as high as 15. The Sox farm is still awful. It’s just that us Sox fans recognize it...
-
Ball hasn’t done much as a starter and one season as a reliever, but it might be early to say he can’t hit,too. He only has 9 career minor league at bats...
-
Apparently nothing to this rumor. If you ask me, wrong side of the diamond anyway...
-
Fair. Harmony doesn’t strike me as one who will tell you how doomed the Sox are while they’re winning the World Series.
-
No. The biggest difference between him and Jacko is frequency...
-
Harmony’s goal is to tell you every player on the Red Sox is inferior and every prospect is inferior and no team wants anything to do with any of them, unlike the World Class Seattle Mariners, an organization for all others to be modeled after and who can do no baseball wrong in every aspect of the game except making the postseason....
-
The Sox have less than $70mill guaranteed on the books for 2020. They do have up to 10 arbitration cases, some of which will be very costly, and some of which will not. They can make other moves, you know...
-
Then why don’t we have their closer yet?
-
He’s also 23 and his unprojectable MLB career might be resting on questions with his bat. He can hit AA pitching, which is good. But that’s no guarantee of anything going forward. It is worth mentioning he was ranked #7 in a Reds’ system that achieved its own high rating due to the top six...
-
Bleacher Reports ranks Shed Long as #7 in the Reds’ system, but identifies him as a Tier 3 prospect, which means he is either a fringe MLB talent or too young to project... and
-
Asking as he is constantly playing teams that are tanking.,,
-
Might be worth pointing out Sonny Gray was a tad under "dynamite" on the road. It would seem he pitched 26 of his 71 road innings in Baltimore and KC, and he did very well in those two parks. In the other parks, his ERA was a less than stellar 4.60. That's not a bad road ERA; plenty of pitchers having good seasons have road ERA's over 4.00. But it's really not dynamite. And last year, the only teams he pitched against on the road and kept his ERA under 3.00 were KC, Baltimore and Chicago. He got lit up in not only Boston, but also Tampa and Minnesota. The Marlins might give up a ton for him, since Jeter (not so) secretly still works for the Yankees. But I wouldn't hold out for a good return from anyone else. Gray is nothing special, unless his opponent is actively tanking. One of the ten best pitchers in the NL? No chance. He might not crack the top 30...
-
Only Yankee mid-season acquisitions count as upgrades. Learn the rules!!!
-
Steamer also projects 1.1 fWAR for Christian Vazquez and 1.0 fWAR for Felipe Vazquez from Pitt. So there you go. Perfect trade...
-
I’m taking the under on Sonny Gray being one of the ten best pitchers in the National League. And you haven’t gotten more for him yet. Let’s see what the return actually is...
-
While not for a full season, you did have Britton last year. But if that doesn’t count, then the Sox have already replaced Kelly with Brasier...
-
If we’re suddenly taking DD at his word, we’re not getting a bullpen arm and Pedroia didn’t have surgery last year...
-
I would get why waiting might help free agent costs, but why wait so long if it’s a trade? There’s no team out there waiting out the market for some combo of Vazquez/Swihart/Chavis/Johnson/Leon. These are all players DD has tried to move before with little to no success...
-
Best bets are Greg Holland or Justin Wilson. Kimbrel os possible if you believe he’s talking him down to keep the price down...
-
Well, Rotoworld is refuting it’s both Stephenson and Long, but believes one to be involved. Both sites often use the same sources, so it’s tough to tell exactly what’s happening...
