He was. What is he like now? And Schreiber wasn’t bad. He’s didn’t match his 2022 njj u miners but he still pitched well despite some injuries. No one has any idea what Hendriks has going forward…
-
Notin didn’t think Henry will spend that money. Does mvp think he will now all of the sudden?
-
Of course they just dealt away a healthy and cheaper Schreiber yesterday…
-
So now go get Brandon Woodruff?
-
2b could be better. The Sox didn’t even have a regular 2b last year. If they don’t get another OF and go with Duran in LF and Rafaela in CF, those are both upgrades over Yoshida in LF and Duran in CF. We’ll see if O’Neill (and his two Gold Gloves) is better than Verdugo in RF. There’s a chance the Sox have upgraded the defense everywhere except catcher, 1b and 3b…

The rotation isn’t a dumpster fire. Bello has looked outstanding so far, and just needs to stretch out a few more IP. Crawford has been an extremely pleasant surprise and is reportedly adding a split-finger fastball for those pesky lefties. I still have faith in Pivetta, especially if he can build on last year. Giolito is certainly a bounce back candidate. That leaves Houck. Houck belongs in the pen, where he can be weaponized. Even if the Sox avoid Montgomery and Snell, at the very least bring in Clevinger or Lauer or Lorenzen. Or someone via trade…
-
And maybe trading Jansen would make ownership think “Now this team isn’t good enough to keep investing in” and then they pass on Montgomery…
-
… unless you run the Braves…
-
I’m hoping it’s lower. If they project 50% +/- 10%, they could squeeze the whole league in there…
-
I got to go with Fistful of Dollars or The Outlaw Josey Wales…
-
That’s a really big range. Predicting 80 wins plus or minus 10% is not much different than predicting the sun will rise in the East tomorrow. 50% of the league will definitely settle in that range…
-
If you saw it, my condolences. It was among his worst from that era…
-
I think Bauer and Urias really don’t need a conspiracy to understand why they’re being avoided. Ditto Domingo German. Clevinger is probably asking for more money (or years?) than many teams think he’s worth. He’s super-talented, but his track record, especially for durability, is not great. And it’s not like these are the only pitchers sitting around unsigned. I doubt the league has conspired against Eric Lauer, for example…
-
Also it was a Clint Eastwood movie…
-
In that case they really should sign Bauer. Sure he’s a PR nightmare as well, but with a positive side. Like a serial killer who is also a clown got kids parties…
-
Do I want to ask about Mr. Projections?
-
I think that you assume players all maxed out last year and the best they can do is repeat. Does the whole “the team didn’t replace the production from Player X” really carry that much weight? No one even knows if Player X can do it…
-
Was he really there to pitching prospect? The Athletic had him as their fourth. Prospects 1500 had him fourth also. But that site puts him in tier four for prospects, which is basically sleepers..
-
They play better baseball. That’s the reason. They won 78 games last year despite going 4-14 against the White Sox, Rockies, Cardinals, Pirates and Nationals - 5 very bad teams. That means their record against the rest of MLB was 74-70, and that includes the beating they got from Tampa. Improve against the bad teams. And improve against Tampa…
-
Sign Bauer and Montgomery (or Clevinger). DFA Jacques…
-
One thing the Schreiber trade does do is open up a spot on the 40 man, since Sandlin (drafted in 2022) doesn’t need one yet. Another move coming? In the next 7-10 days?
-
I think Crawford was fine as a starter. Houck, Winckowski and Whitlock need to stay on reliever roles…
-
Or Winckowski, whom soxprospects has in Worcester. The Sox are hopefully not stops about making Winckowski a starter. The bullpen had the potential to be one of the highlights of this team; why is Breslow trying to dismantle it?
-
Schreiber makes $1.175 mill. That’s not even 1.5 times the league minimum…
-
1. But they are giving their fans reasons to get excited. 2. In the AL Central, they might be good enough…
