    No Romy? Before the season you said you wouldn’t be surprised if he was DFAd..

    3. Justin Wilson. I figured he’d be released by July and not be a key member of the bullpen. 2. Narvaez. From minor league scrap heap to legitimate All Star snub. 1. Devers trade. Never saw it coming and once it did, I figured it to derail the season.

    At the time of the trade, Campbell had played 14 games at Greenville (A+)…

    I wonder what the actual heights are. Yoshida is listed at 5’8”. But when you see him in person, even that looks like a stretch…

    They might non-tender him simply because he would be a cheaper free agent than arbitration candidate. They do risk losing him that way. Not sure how much of a concern that is…

    They could . And then clearly draft the next Campbell, Casas, and then some…

    I agree Santana will cost less than Naylor. I disagree that two months of Naylor will require Campbell, Casas, and then some…

    Burger is a waste. Texas is reportedly looking to add a 1b at the deadline. If Burger was a good solution, that wouldn’t be necessary. Very, very doubtful the Angels trade 23yo Nolan Schanuel, a player they like so much he went right from signing his contract out of college to starting at 1b in MLB the same year. Hes 23 and IMO. a future star, better than his more hyped fellow draftee Wyatt Langford…

    Casas is a non- tender candidate. If the Sox do drop him, hopefully that action doesn’t injure him further…

    This accomplishes the same thing. Odd choice because maybe outside of Rafaela, Yoshida is probably the shortest player in the Sox system above A ball…

    Because he owned the Twins by the third movie. And then he went on to take over his son’s psychic detective agency….

    Instead of upgrading Wong, maybe the Sox need a catcher with an option left. They have only Wong and Narvaez on the 40 man roster and only Seby Zavala with any MLB experience in the minors, where he’s not exactly dazzling. With no more August trades, the Sox might want to add depth just in case of injury at catcher. Unless they’re fine with Zavala, who is there for them without taking up a 40 man spot…

    Scott Kingery? there was a Mike Kingery, but he was a nondescript outfielder for Seattle in the 1980s. Scott signed the big MLB deal out of college before playing a single professional game..

    I actually didn’t like it much for Boston from a talent perspective, but the deal made sense all around…

    I think it helps a lot. His $7.5mill AAV is basically utility infielder money. Years are longer, but his AAV is in the same neighborhood as what Jorge Polanco, Enrique Hernández and Jesse Winker got last year. If he even lived up to half of his Top Ten hype, he’s a steal. If not, he’s not immovable. Will Cleveland be happier paying Tanner Bibee $18mill in 2028 and $21mill in 2029 if he stays as the middling pitcher he’s been this season? Or if he misses time due to TJ?

    His struggles in 83 PA? They might not even be real struggles. If he’s working on pitch recognition and hitting breaking pitches, his instructions could be something like “dont swing at fastballs unless you have two strikes.” If thats the case, his AAA struggles are not real and the impact on his stats (lower BA/Slg and higher K%,BB% and OBP) would look a lot like his current line in Worcester now. Not to mention, with only 83 OA, Hes one 4 for 4 day away from adding 80 points to that OPS…

    So? Are you out of minutes this month? Call them and find out! Did you not understand the assignment here?

    Also, Yandy Diaz needs some mention. Former batting champ whose 2026 $12mill option was already picked up, and has a $13mill 2027 option. With the Rays being for sale, they might be willing to move more money and change their financial picture somewhat. Also it would be really nice to no longer have to face this guy…

    Campbell has a surplus value of $46mill on BTV, as mentioned before. His closest matches among SPs is Tanner Bibee, valued at $47.3mill. Bibee is having a rough year, and is owed some $45 mill thru 2029 with an option for 2030. Cleveland heavily backloaded this deal, a common tactic among small market teams, often with the plan to move the player before the yeas get to expensive. Would you trade Campbell for Bibee? Would Cleveland?
