Because we all know no other city in the USA has talk radio and sports media.
Probably safe to assume Kyoto had it as well, and there the media might have even spoken his first language!!!
I believe comments on MLBTR from multiple people, and they all got it from that notoriously fake account.
Ort is still with the Red Sox. It’s a sad day…
I’m not sure he had other options in many cases.
I think he made some good moves and some fairly awful ones. The awful ones will probably be the ones that pan out…
I think moving Dalbec around and making him more versatile is a good idea. The only idea I’d be more excited about would be making him a weak side platoon corner outfielder. He has surprising speed and a cannon for an arm. If Dalbec could learn to judge flyballs (and not from whoever taught Duran) he could have a legit future as a weak side platoon bat.
Duran really needs to return to 2b. This whole OF experiment has been a mega flop…
Story could be out for a while.
But when healthy, Mondesi is one of the most exciting players in MLB. The problem, as you guessed, is he’s rarely healthy…
Duran and Dalbec are certainly tradable, but as neither is all that much of a player, that’s basically what they would get in return - someone else who isn’t all that much of a player…
With Baltimore, it needed to be the 26. And he was already left off our 40 once; that’s how Baltimore got him.
But honestly, I’m not so sure Politi is much of a prospect…
I don’t like a lot of things about the opening day lineup. But injury has had an effect.
I don’t like Duvall in CF primarily. But if Mondesi returns and plays SS and Kike moves back to CF, the defense looks a lot better to me.
Especially if Duvall slides to LF and Yoshida to DH and Turner to a corner IF/OF supersub. But that’s probably too much to ask..
