    Reassigned him to HELL!!! Thinking some variation of that works as a movie title…

    Because that’s not true? Who are you thinking of? My understanding is this injury is fairly common and most players with it do not require surgery.

    Duran is already making $7mill tjis year. Next year he likely falls somewhere in the $10-12mill range…

    And that the talent level csndidates ranked 5 and 10 is obvious and apparent. The reality is thr Sox will do more towards rebuilding their franchise at the trade deadline this year than they will with a draft pick not likely to see MLB before 2030…

    Seems like he wants to manage his own game again. What a shocker…

    You do realize that’s comparing rounds, not pick 5 to pick 10…

    Welcome to the minority that doesn’t think Mayer snd his 350 career at bats isn’t already an AAAA player…
  8. notin
    Not really, since Breslow and his team have drafted twice. That we have seen a couple players already in MLB from those drafts is pretty good…

    He likes playing baseball?

    I haven’t heard that. Is this actual information or just cynicism?

    Sometimes a 101 mph fastball just means you walk the hitter quicker than the guy throwing 96 mph…

    He’s been known to throw it underground…

    But for what? Normally thats a good combination but he had more control last off-season, was shopped around, and is still here…

    Yoshida, barring a crazy turnaround, is a very likely DFA candidate sometime in August when the team needs a 40 man roster spot, possibly for a deadline acquisition….

    But the bottom line is if ticket sales do drop, zero chance Henry decides that means time to soend heavy and 100% he takes it as a sign to spend less..,

    Great. And that will help in 2030. Any recommendations until then?

    Like they have in Tampa? And Milwaukee? The Sox are down to big contributors from last year with Story stupidly deciding to play injured and Duran suddenly forgetting how to hit. They wouldn’t be the scariest lineup, but it might have been adequate for their staff if these two could replicate ladt year. They did score 4.84 RPG (8th in MLB) even after trading away Devers. Throw in 4 bats with less than a year, and 2/3 of the lineup is exposed.

    Exactly what team will be at the deadline thinking “you know what this team REALLY NEEDS? A head case amidst a career free fall!!”
  19. notin
    Right here! Right now! All that matters! That’s why that Christian Vazquez trade got bashed so harshly (which it did at first).

    One of the biggest issues with the Sox this year was a largely inexperienced lineup still developing. Anthony, Mayer, Narvaez and Durbin all had one year or less under their belts. I’m hesitant to think the best solution here is to add in even less experience…

    Like by adding a lottery? First of all, ranking draft csndidates by talent is far from an exact science, which is why no two mock drafts are the same. Not to mention, picking which high school player has the brightest future 4 years from now is an even more difficult task. Houston had the number one overall pick 3 years in a row and only selected one major leaguer who had an actual career….
  22. notin
    Not really. Unless there is a Bryce Harper or Paul Skenes available - a clear top talent - the MLB draft is largely a crapshoot. Most years have plenty of good players in the later rounds. Not to mention, it’s the slowest possible way to rebuild a franchise and gives the Sox more excuses to stay cheap..,
  23. notin
    Story and Mayer are both back next year. So no Arias until Story breaks a rib or strains an. Intercostal of lets his arches fall or…

    Colorado isn’t trading the cheap and controllable Goodman. In fact, they rarely trade anyone, unless it’s to dump Mr. Arenado’s salary.
  25. notin
    They seem to be hesitant on the long term free agent front, although they did sign Suarez. Not holding my breath for another. .So either deal some minor league talent or short term free agents. Maybe Chisholm, Torres or Lowe? Chisholm clearly gets the longest deal there. Could also trade a young pitcher (Early?) for a bat and sign a replacement SP…
