My point exactly…
-
I was assuming Tiant, given the arbitrary 1974 date. As it odd clearly not Tiant (who makes the list of the date gets pushed to 1972), I cheated and looked it up…
-
The easiest way to use BTV is to start with the highest-valued acceptable prospect, rather than using two or more to build up value. Quality trumps quantity. Unless you’re trading with Oakland. They seem to prefer quantity…
-
The answer to every trivia question about the 2007 Red Sox is Mike Lowell. 2018 - going with Benintendi as the hits leader…
-
Maybe he likes the idea of being a consultant and being his own boss, setting his own hours, and overcharging insanely lucrative rates for everything he does…
-
I imagine the White Sox (who have stated they plan to hold on to Cease) do not trade Cease without getting Roman Anthony at a minimum…
-
But you might find you get what you need…

Schmidt with 548 home runs, all for the Phillies is correct. My first thought was Killebrew, but apparently some of his 573 home runs were for the Royals. Mantle with 536 home runs all for the Yankees was second…
-
The Braves count as one team in 3 different cities, but Aaron hit 10 home runs as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers, a second team. Most home runs all for one team. My first thought was wrong, even after I looked at the all time home run leader list…
-
Not the most home runs for one time. Most career home runs in which they all came for one team. Bonds hit home runs for Pittsburgh and San Fran - two teams. It’s a tough question than I thought when I was wondering about it…
-
Marlowe posted a .781 OPS in the PCL, which translates to roughly a .950 OPS in Little League. This trade would be a poor PR salary dump in which the Sox acquired a borderline LHH outfielder who likely falls behind Wilyer Abreu on the depth chart. Easy pass…
-
What player hit the most career home runs in which all of them were for a single team?
-
I have no idea what these guys will sign for, although the buzz on MLB Network is Montgomery could surpass the earning power of Blake Snell due to his performance in the postseason and this will not change if Snell gets his second Cy Young. Of course, they’re not the most reliable for predictions. But if he does, you’re looking at probably $30mill AAV for Yamamoto, $25mill for Montgomery, we’ll say $10mill got Wacha and $8mill for Duvall. $73mill for those four. Is it possible? Sure. Will they actually do it? No idea…
-
Not to mention the notion that the Sox are only going to spend on pitching (not true) or going to get 2 starting pitchers (not likely) or need to add a #1 and a #2 (Entering “Flying Pig Territory” here)…
-
I don’t think Pivetta’s $8mill is preventing a second tier starter. Pivetta has been a useful pitcher the past 3 seasons capable of starter and reliever roles.
-
How so?
-
It’s not like the Red Sox are talking about him. Just us on this inconsequential message board forum. The Sox people do not read what we say, and probably wouldn’t care if they did. If we talk about pitching, think it makes a difference in what the team does?
-
Anderson expressed willingness to move to 2b in Chicago. I do like this idea…
-
He isn’t a terrible pitcher. Just a terrible human being…
-
He is definitely declining. He was asking for numbers like in the option (2yrs $32mill) and was rejected by multiple teams. San Diego obviously didn’t want him at that price, but they are also reportedly trying to trim $50mill of their payroll, and that is probably a larger part of why they declined the option. They’d probably love him at his player option price…
-
Agreed. He simply isn’t an MLB player. His ceiling is utility bench player, but he lacks any real versatility so far. There are teams that will be interested in him because he doesn’t make a lot of money, but his appeal ends there. DFA him and then call Cherington or Forst and let them know…
-
That’s being said by a lot people outside the organization and zero people inside the organization…
-
Is Yamamoto really guaranteed to be a top 3? Not sure this contract will be a bargain either. I’d place him as the biggest or second biggest contact handed out to a pitcher this off-season, vying with Aaron Nola for the honor. Not sure I’m on board there. I’m more intrigued by the potential return of Trevor Bauer, assuming he’s innocent. If he still hates long term contracts, all the better…
-
Too early for free agency but not trades. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/11/tigers-acquire-mark-canha-from-brewers.html Go get ‘em, Craig!
-
Duvall will get (possibly) multiple offers. That’s never been the question. Duration is the issue…
