  1. SS, CF and catcher…
  2. There are a few (re: very few) exceptions. And Bregman is a whiny little cheater. Cheating is one thing. But if you’re going to cheat, at least man up and don’t whine about fans not liking you for it…
  3. So not RH power bats? Most of them strike out a lot. Swinging and missing pairs up with swinging hard. The two go tohgether like peanut butter and marshmallow fluff…
  4. So you want to ruin Renfroe’s “15 teams in 15 years” tour of MLB career goal?
  5. It was absolutely a reasonable theory. I’ve learned you don’t give up on a player after one bad season…
  6. At the very least, this variance shows the advantage of offense over defense isn’t as definitive as once suspected…
  7. So yesterday, my Cubs’ fan teenage daughter in the midst of a baseball discussion said, unprompted, “the Red Sox should just sign Matt Chapman and fix that infield.” She’s learning right…
  8. At that price, Wendle becomes a safety net if you can’t get a better player. I’d take Wendle at 2b over whoever is slated to start there now, which I would guess is the superior offensive talent Enmanuel Valdez…
  9. His career wasn’t as long, but he did compile bWAR at a faster rate than the superior hitter/worse fielder…
  10. I didn’t make excuses. I said he was a good bounce back candidate and didn’t mind the trade. That’s not the same at all…
  11. Jeter had 71 bWAR in roughly 2750 games. Simmons 37 bWAR in 1225 games. That doesn’t support your point…
  12. Why was he late? Apathy?
  13. Was Verdugo benched for his attitude?
  14. Was Verdugo benched for his attitude?
  15. JBJ’s defense became a much bigger deal when he dropped that toe tap and started to hit. I don’t mind watching my #9 hitter strike out or hit weak grounders nearly as much as I mind my “up the middle” fail to get to seemingly routine or makable plays, or as much as I mind watching innings extended by a glut of errors…
  16. True. I doubt they even know this individual Red Sox forum exists. I do disagree hitting is straight up more important than fielding. I think at a minimum it’s situational depending on position. I also think our opinions of Verdugo’s attitude might be overblown or based on incomplete information…
  17. Although it doesn’t do much when you’re looking for a shortstop…
  18. And when you can’t get a player who can do both hit and field, which individual skill do you prefer?
  19. I stand by my comments about Sox fans and defense on the other thread.
  20. And that’s just one position over less than a full season…
  21. I do think a lot of Sox fans hate defense. Alex Verdugo was nominated for a Gold Glove, and that’s why they want him gone and replaced with a right-handed bat that can’t field…
  22. Mets signed Joey Wendle, one of the best defensive middle infielders in MLB, to a 1 year $2mill deal…
  23. I care much more about the years than the money….
  24. Scratch that. Apparently Burnes hired Boras last March and B-R.com never updated, which is a rarity for them…
