    The Madstork has arrived, the season has officially begun.
  2. Hugh2
    Yeah but is that a slump? it's only been a few games. I wouldn't call that a slump i'd call it a small sample size.
  3. Hugh2
    The despair of a crappy start to the season is always somewhat mitigated by the insanely hilarious way too early hot takes.
  4. Hugh2
    You won't be happy if he has a .769 OPS come September
  5. Hugh2
    I'm not sold we should have got Suarez on one game.
  6. Hugh2
    Ohtani is 1-8 M. Betts is 2-11 Bo Bichette is 1-14 Aaron Judge is 2-13 Julio Rodriguez is 1-15 People it's still March. Why do we do this to ourselves every single year?
  7. Hugh2
    Early surely would have hit 100 pitches if they left him out there and it's still March. Weissert had also had an excellent spring. Hindsight is 20/20 folks. ANYWHOOOOOOOOO This guy right here has tickets to opening day at Fenway this upcoming Friday.
  8. Hugh2
    Yeah, I figured this was coming. What a crappy way to lose a series. Still, it's March so..... Lets see were Suarez and Durbin are at by the end of the year. Abreu looks good, heck Mayer looks pretty good. I'm pretty sure Duran and Anthony are going to be fine, if Story gets going I think they offense will actually be fine.
  9. Hugh2
    Lets hope for a win today, take the series. You win every series or most you're a 95+ win playoff team.
  10. Hugh2
    I think Story made up for his misplay with a HR too, but it still was very frustrating to watch, especially considering how this team is suppose to be all about "pitching and defense"
  11. Hugh2
    I'll take Durans second greatest season of all time over TCC.
  12. Hugh2
    Duran is my darkhorse candidate to hit 30 HR's this year.
  13. Hugh2
    Anthony with the go ahead home run and Whitlock mowing down the heart of the order in the 8th. Sox fingerprints all over that victory

    I’m all for upgrading catcher, but given the injuries Wong was battling last year why shouldn’t expect a 2026 healthy Wong to look more like he did in 2024? That would be better than anything that’s on the market right now and a really good 2nd catcher. it would be more encouraging if he was having a better spring, but I expect Wong to bounce back in 2026.
  15. Hugh2
    And Masa....what are we going to do with all these power hitters????
  16. Hugh2
    Sox have been well represented in the WBC, Anthony and Duran looking good. Even Bello looked good and Whitlock has been good out of the pen. I know it's ST, but it's nice to see.
  17. Hugh2
    Campbell hear us talking s*** and decided to hit a homerun
  18. Hugh2
    I'm actually probably higher on him than most and I'm encouraged that his swinging a faster bat now. I believe with consistency that will translate to in game production. But I think he's going to need at least a 1/2 a year in the minors before he breaks thru if he breaks thru. He might end up being fine and worth every penny in the long run, but the Sox certainly jumped the gun in giving him that extension. They should of waited.
  19. Hugh2
    He's still 1 whole year younger than Duran was before he made his debut, 3 years younger than he was before it took him to become a viable MLBer. He's young, I'm still hopeful he can be an impactful everyday player.
  20. Hugh2
    I'm not getting too worked up over spring training, Campbell looks a ton better this year if you're looking under the hood. His swing is better, his exit velocity is creeping back up and it's just spring training. But I do think he needs substantial time in AAA, even if he's hitting, let him have some sustained success for a while, he's still just 23 years old.
  21. Hugh2
    If Godbout takes to the Sox bat speed program I think you could be right, but in the absence of that I'm not sure his poor bat speed is going to translate to the major league level, he might not be anything more than a slap hitter. Arias has a good hit tool too but same questions around his power potential. At 20 years old, and two full years younger than Godbout I'd say there's a better chance that Arias is going to grow, fill out, and add size more than Godbout will. I'm not saying Godbout isn't going to add strength (which isn't the same exact thing as size) just that Arias has more room to fill out. They both might rise to that challenge. IF they both do solve these issues, I think I'm going with Arias because he has a much higher defensive ceiling.
  22. Hugh2
    Maybe, maybe not. They want Campbell getting regular at bats, Eaton is filling a utility role. Apples to oranges.
  23. Hugh2
    Ok how about this. If an outfielder goes down, I’d rather have Yoshida slide into an everyday DH role than Eaton, but as a bench player Eaton is a better choice with more versatility.
  24. Hugh2
    Well yeah, like if Duran goes down Yoshida because your DH. I don't think this is an apples to apples comparision because you can slide Yoshida into that everyday role while Eaton is a utility guy who is a better fit for that role and thus this roster.
  25. Hugh2
    Eaton is right handed, he's capable of playing multiple positions, and he has plus speed. If we were comparing them as DH's I could see liking Yoshida but someone like Eaton is 10000% a better fit for this roster.
