  1. MLBTR posted their predictions for the top 50. They no longer list a single prediction and instead each writer has one for each free agent. The following had two or more writers choose Boston for their destination: Kodai Senga, Nathan Eovaldi, Taylor Rogers, Michael Conforto. No shortstops. Agree with any?
  2. Adalberto Mondesi is likely available, as he ranks second even in the very small two member club of Royals Shortstops Whose Dads Were Major Leaguers.
  3. I was starting to wonder if the Padres had forged W2’s for their players just like the forged medical report on Drew Pomeranz…
  4. I don’t think the Sox are going to push Sale down to the #3 spot in the rotation. I only expect 1 starter to be added to the active roster (plus a slew of players on MiLB deals),. I’d prefer two starters so that Whitlock is pushed back into the bullpen…
  5. But right now, we’re operating on the assumption that because Heaney was mentioned, he’s the top and possibly only target. This might be a tad premature. For all we know, Heaney might get a minor league contract…
  6. And he discovered Sugar Twin…
  7. I hope that applies to both Houck and Whitlock. The pen has been much better when both of them are in it…
  8. Also, Bob Hamelin was on the grassy knoll…
  9. Austin Riley felt it was serious money…
  10. That’s the thing, too. What team that feels 2023 is just one third baseman away? Like say. there was this hypothetical team that had made the postseason in 2022 and then declined the option on Justin Turner. Can you imagine that fallout! “Bloom certainly can build a World Series Champ. Just look what he did for the Dodgers.”
  11. Bob Hamelin did win the job as a rookie for the Royals one year and went on to be AL ROY…
  12. I’m calling Shenanigans!! You? Not a fan of a platoon!???
  13. He does have a full NTC, which can complicate matters. He has no ability to block a DFA…
  14. I couldn’t be less wild about Heaney, but he fits too much into the “talented but always hurt” profile that the Sox have had going around for years now. I suppose signing Heaney is tolerable if you’re not counting on him. Maybe Sale + Paxton + Heaney = 1 good SP? Or maybe this is just some horseshit rumor, the type we will be inundated with over the next two months and over 99% of which were never based on anything more than some blogger’s imagination..
  15. I don’t like Houck as a starter although his career ERA in that role is like 3.68-ish. He’s had some success. But expecting 150 IP from him is probably insane at this point. I’d rather see Hill back…
  16. Do they need someone to replace Wacha and Hill on the IL? WhTs the logic here? “We need someone who makes Paxton look healthy by comparison.”
  17. If Devers is not singable, he should be traded…
  18. $200million isn’t serious money?
  19. Is that the one where you get the first 6 DHs for a penny, but then you have to buy lots more?
  20. Dalbec has one skill that’s always worked for him - hitting LHP. He still has a viable role in a platoon, likely at DH with Hosmer…
  21. I’ve predicted it. Yes. And I will be right. Maybe this year. Maybe next…
  22. He took the banning of the shift a little too far…
  23. Yes he could and very likely will get hurt. But that really also applies to all the top tier pitchers this year…
  24. Sox trade Easton McGee for cash. It opens up a 40 man roster spot, but probably not much else…
  25. A QO to Eovaldii - his other option - does make sense…
