    That just sounds oddly cannibalistic…

    More like a homeless man’s Ohtani…

    LOL Pretty sure he meant Miley. He might have even made that comment prior to Kimbrel’s part in the combined no hitter. Miley would go on to get released by the Reds that year despite having a very reasonable option year left…

    Are you calling him fat?
  5. notin
    But twice in 3 weeks is a bit frequent…

    Pivetta might be pitching himself back into the rotation…

    Joe Castiglione once mentioned of all the Sox players he’s met, almost if of them were nice people. And only one player stood out just terribly unfriendly and unpleasant. I got the impression if EEI let Castiglione say “*******”, he would have. He didn’t name the player, but he did follow up with “he has a no hitter this year.” Castiglione made that comment in 2021…

    He has a player option for $13.4mill with a $6.7mill buyout if he opts out, meaning anything over a one year $6.7mill deal is a pay raise…

    And Turner. It’s a $6.7mill buyout. He’s taking it…

    So… Stroman?
  11. notin
    Why not?
  12. notin
    He’s been a mildly pleasant surprise, but we probably never mention the name again after 2023…

    A team looking for a RHH power bat might take a flier on Dunn. Jorge Soler wasn’t exactly lighting up NL pitching when Atlanta acquired, presumably only because the price was right. And that deal could not have worked out any better…

    So he’s not in the bullpen?

    I think Kike gives them better OF defense. In the event they start needing to resort to non-starting players, the good gloves are more likely to meet your expectations. Duvall is certainly no slouch defensively himself and could be the player kept. (Most likely both are.) I’m fine with that as long as Kike doesn’t play SS…

    I think Kike is a good player who simply isn’t a shortstop. I also doubt he gets traded. Duvall might move. They signed Duvall to play CF, but Duran has shown himself more than capable. Refsnyder (and Kike) can handle right-handed platoon roles. So unless there’s an injury or unforeseen trade (Verdugo?), I could see Duvall moved at the deadline. Likely got an A ball player…

    The Cardinals need to wake up and realize they’re going nowhere and could lose Montgomery, Wainwright, Flaherty, Hicks and DeJong after this year followed by O’Neill, Gallegos and Goldschmidt the next. But hey, they get to keep Steve Matz…

    Too late. I already shot the message…

    1. Lugo is an interesting call. 2. It’s not an official MLB Trade Deadline until the Red Sox and Padres complete at least one trade…
  20. notin
    We at least agree it’s simple…
  21. notin
    Like Paul Blackburn? You’re coming around…
  22. notin
    Greatly prefer SP. Whitlock and Pivetta are just much better in the pen…
  23. notin
    The Sox like Refsnyder for his OBP, his ability to hit LHP, and his dirt cheap salary. But if he gets traded, they won’t struggle to fill that role. Kike and Duvall probably do for the rest of the year. And Worcester has Daniel Palka, Narciso Crook, Bradley Zimmer and Marcus Wilson - not exactly guys whose development needs more attention…
  24. notin
    Absolutely Verdugo over Duran. The main reason to move Duran now, however, is he should command a better return. But I play it safe and move the guy with less control…
  25. notin
    I think Rafaela can equal Chang defensively with potential for better offense. And like I said, it’s not looking like CF is waiting for him…
