  1. In 2021, the Sox big deadline acquisition was a .250 hitter on the IL. And folks have lamented losing him ever since…
  2. I would assume Wong is heading to Baltimore. Lower trade value increases the returning prospect capital to Baltimore. And wuth Basallo on the IL, Theyre going to need a catcher to prevent their pitchers from firing everything into the wall behind home plate…
  3. He’s a three time All Star, Silver Slugger with two top 12 MVP finishes, was a ROY runner up and has been invited to the HR Derby. What else does he need to do? Part the Red Sea?
  4. This is what I like about Breslow. If something doesn’t work out, he’s pro-active. Take Curtis Mead. Big acquisition that unfortunately fractured his wrist almost immediately. Breslow’s new plan? Move on Rutschman, who is already on the IL with a wrist injury. Take that, Karma!
  5. Only briefly. Story likely suffers a debilitating paper cut while flipping the calendar at the end of August…
  6. Agreed. Mostly because it’s too late to have a good first half…
  7. Well, Ive had my butt handed to me by SoxPhan and Hugh recently…
  8. First of all, is 2.6 oWAR. good, bad or average? Second, OPS is based on percentages and division. WAR trends towards being cumulative. 587 PAs help.
  9. But both of the Sox AAA shortstops - Arias and Cheng - have high defensive floors…
  10. 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.
  11. 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…
  12. Monasterio really is a bad SS. Either call up Arias or call up Cheng. Monasterio can move to 2b…
  13. 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
  14. That is rare nowadays, but the Dodgers do have a 2,500 hour window to work out an extension…
  15. Actually last year baseball-reference credited him with 2.6 oWAR and 2.8 dWAR…
  16. 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..
  17. 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…
