He was posting DRS at an unholy rate prior to 2022. 42 DRS total in 2019-2021, with 21 of them coming in 2021. Last year he went the other way with -9…

Brandon Belt…
-
Davis was worth -1.1 bWAR. Chavis was worth -0.1 bWAR. Davis was worse but both teams lost that trade…
-
How does the Chavis trade look bad? We released Davis, but the Pirates released Chavis just weeks later. To me the Pivetta trade was amazing. The Sox got multiple years of a decent SP for 3 months of two journeyman relievers who have combined to play for over 10 teams since that trade…

Not 210?
-
Latest updates have it at 3 years $60mill.

You’re assuming a linear drop. Are you sure it’s not a sinusoidal wave?
-
I like the idea of recent trends to spot decline. But sometimes OPS just don’t tell the whole Story Story. Sure his numbers dropped, but in some cases, for whatever reason, the whole league’s did. And he did have a significant home field change in there. If you look at OPS+ 2019 - 120 2020 - 120 2021 - 102 2022 - 102 It’s less of a steady trend, but it does show a difference…

I’m sorry. What?!?!
-
But he’s also the only one from outside the AL East. I see the Sox improving at catcher, but Omar Navraez is 1000x more likely than any of the Jays…
-
Stallings is basically a fatter, right-handed Reese McGuire…
-
Save one inning, Ottavino was good. Those Yankee fans whose opinion you prefer over data also yell at the TV and boo any player who fails to dominate in the same fashion a Division I college player would in a Little League game…
-
They had already traded for JBJ. Signing Suzuki likely meant Suzuki in RF, JBJ in CF and Kike at 2b. And no Story…
-
We could add Whitlock…
-
He never really was one…
-
Absolutely…
-
You know it’s bad when the closer on the other team calls out for Yankee fans to stop booing Judge…
-
Actually I think some of this is just your perception. For example, you single out Ottavino as struggling in NY, presumably based on his 5.89 ERA. But that year, Ottavino made 24 appearances and only gave up runs in 5 of them. And only more than one run twice. His ERA was so high because of one singular bad outing in which he gave up 6 ER. One half his season total. Was he really struggling when Bloom acquired him? So yes Ottavino had a 5.89 ERA. But he also delivered goose eggs in 19 of his 24 outings that year…
-
It was probably driven by finances and available options…
-
Bullpen today Houck, Schreiber, Barnes, Brasier, Rodriguez, Taylor/Kelly. That leaves two open slots. Fulmer and Estevez, barring any trades…
-
I don’t see getting Verlander or deGrom…
-
I’ve been anti-Brasier for years. But I suppose the counter argument is whatever other reliever you get for $2.3mill isn’t going to be substantially better…
-
I think they tendered Brasier arbitration because the Sox have zero plans to DFA him. While Brasier has been high on MY DFA candidate list for a while now, (years, actually) the Sox simply do not care for my input…
-
An arbitration is a non-guaranteed one year contract of value TBD. If you can DFA a guaranteed contract, I don’t see the difference…
-
Why wouldn’t it be?
