  1. Eugenio Suarez, who was traded at the deadline, was not eligible for a qualifying offer. Ranger Suarez, on the other hand ...
  2. In a heartbeat. Kristian Campbell may be hard-pressed to match the career of one-time top hitting prospect Dustin Ackley, another ACC college product who likewise made an MLB debut in his age 23 season. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/a/ackledu01.shtml Baseball Trades Values likely undervalues Isaac Paredes, although FanGraphs' Roster Resource does not even project Paredes in the Houston starting lineup: https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/depth-charts/astros On Friday Seattle podcasters speculated on Paredes as a Mariner trade target: https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/a/ackledu01.shtml BTW Paredes and the Astros may be headed for an arbitration hearing after failing to agree on a 2026 salary. MLB Trade Rumors projected a 2026 salary of $9.3 million after Paredes earned $6.625 million in 2025. Paredes has filed a salary of $9.95 million, while the Astros have filed a salary of $8.75 million.
  3. After Alex Bregman reportedly signed with the Cubs, numerous proposed Red Sox trades for Astro third baseman Isaac Paredes popped up at Baseball Trade Values: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trades?page=1&q=paredes Scroll down.
  4. FWIW in 365 games with the Seattle Mariners, Eugenio Suarez posted a .227/.317/..424/,741 line with an OPS+ of 112. In 715 games with the Seattle Mariners before joining the Red Sox, Adrian Beltre posted a .266/.317/.442/.759 line with an OPS+ of 101. Seattle is a tough place to hit.
  5. AB Part 2. Alex Bregman and Adrian Beltre were 31-year-old third basemen who spent only one year in Boston before leaving town.
  6. Is Wilyer Abreu back from Venezuela after winning a home run derby in Valencia last month? https://worldbaseball.com/the-latest-mlb-players-stuck-in-venezuela-after-maduros-capture-future-of-lvbp-playoffs-serie-de-las-americas-uncertain/ https://worldbaseball.com/amid-military-action-by-the-u-s-venezuelas-lvbp-playoffs-scheduled-to-continue-tonight/ https://bosoxinjection.com/red-sox-news-wilyer-abreu-home-run-derby-kristian-campbell-offseason-update#:~:text=Prospects-,Red Sox News: Wilyer Abreu Home Run Derby%2C Kristian Campbell,Francisco Rentería and Yasiel Puig. The Milwaukee Brewers reportedly are working to bring rising star Jackson Chourio and others back from Venezuela: https://heavy.com/sports/mlb/milwaukee-brewers/chourio-brothers-shining-amid-venezuela-uncertainty/ The projected Red Sox lineup has three Venezuelans in Abreu, Willson Contreras and Carlos Narvaez.
  7. Is Alex Bregman a "done deal" for the Arizona Diamondbacks? https://x.com/AZSports/status/2004602775838359694 https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/alex-bergman-done-deal-arizona-232246453.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQFxnF0sj9c Probably not.
  8. Tjhose stats provide a significant difference in production. And Ryan O'Hearn can play in the field (and is 11 days younger).
  9. The Seattle Mariners were an absolute mess 10 years ago but have posted 90, 90, 88, 85 and 90 wins over the past five seasons (88.6 average) while the Red Sox posted 25 fewer victories with 92, 78, 78, 81 and 89 wins (83.6 average). Last season the Red Sox closed the significant gap of the previous three seasons. The Red Sox and Mariners have reasons to be optimistic about 2026. In last week's preliminary ZiPS projections, columnist Dan Szymborski speculated: "There's a high probability the Mariners enter 2026 with the most projected wins in the American League, at least according to ZiPS." https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2026-zips-projections-seattle-mariners/ No need to address the payroll differences.😉 Today Szymborski concluded: "At least according to ZiPS, the Red Sox have a roster that ought to have them competing with the best in the AL." https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2026-zips-projections-boston-red-sox/
  10. Have the Red Sox adopted the Seattle Mariner model of the past decade?😉
  11. Too rich for the Seattle Mariners IMHO.

  13. The Red Sox and the Cardinals have been active on the trade market. Is Brendan Donovan next?
  14. St. Louis Cardinal podcasters were live when the news of the Willson Contreras trade came down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzwozNNaogE ... at 33:00.
  15. A Washington Nationals podcaster reacts to the trade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EznnTRRWJY
  16. Baseball Trade Values likes the Washington Nationals: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trades?page=1&realTrades=1&q=Nationals Scroll down. 😏
  17. FWIW Baseball Trade Values gave Luis Perales a surplus value of $17.3 million and Jake Bennett a surplus value of $6 million: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trades/205682
  18. At MLB.com, Luis Perales was the seventh-ranked prospect in a well-regarded Boston farm system while Jake Bennett was the 11th-ranked prospect in a lightly-regarded Washington farm system. SoxProspects had Perales ranked fourth in the Red Sox system.
  19. The Red Sox trade Luis Perales to the Washington Nationals for lefthander Jake Bennett in a swap of pitching prospects: https://x.com/JeffPassan/status/2000716983034106004?s=20 https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/12/red-sox-nationals-to-swap-luis-perales-jake-bennett.html#comments
  20. No, https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/12/red-sox-yankees-orioles-finalists-for-michael-king.html
  21. Does Michael King move the needle? https://x.com/ChrisCotillo/status/2000253715501158632 https://www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/14/sports/red-sox-michael-king-free-agent/?s_campaign=bostonglobesports%3Asocialflow%3Atwitter&utm_social_post_id=622793588&utm_social_handle_id=19780938
  22. Perhaps: https://www.forbes.com/mlb-valuations/list/#tab:overall https://www.forbes.com/sites/justinteitelbaum/2025/03/26/baseballs-most-valuable-teams-2025/
  23. What would be the luxury tax consequences? https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/boston-red-sox/tax
  24. That's like calling Rafael Devers the face of mediocre Red Sox teams 2022-24.
  25. The Red Sox reportedly are trading for former Giants reliever Ryan Watson, whom the Athletics selected with the No. 8 pick in the Rule 5 draft: https://x.com/ChrisCotillo/status/1998835447548576039?s=20
