I want to wish Narvaez the best with his new team. He did a great job during his time with the Sox. An excellent defensive catcher, who handled the pitching staff extremely well.
-
I believe Mayer had a BTV of around 60 million before he ever put on a major league uniform.
-
I still find it puzzling the high BTV assigned to some prospects who have proven nothing at the MLB level.
-
Sox trade Mayer to Giants for Erik Miller

And a 5'9" prospect. -
I'm still amazed that anyone believes that Bregman is worth 35 mil/yr.
-
Trifecta contracts from hell.
-
He can always take up bowling again.
-
Here's an interesting stat. The Sox as a team have hit 111 HR's. Their pitching staff has given up 111 HR's. What's the odds?
-
Sox now only one behind the Yankems in the all important loss column.
-
Playing in markets like Boston or NY isn't for everyone. Just ask Carl Crawford or the Panda.
-
Mayer was a bigger reason Mayer got traded.
-
No, the Dodgers got swept by a team that was 57-51 before the series started.
-
The Cards just blew a 6-0 lead over the Yankems.
-
That's what is meant about hindsight being golden.
-
Plus the PO's, which I'm sure was the main motivation for the trade.
-
IMHO, based on the different attributes he brings to the Sox, I feel Rutch was the best non-pitcher pickup of the entire trade deadline.
-
Or Bailey does.
-
Except for rentals when does a team get more for less during the summer TDL?
-
An ex-GM, who knows more about baseball than I ever will, said recently that the best thing about a team having good prospects is they can be traded for good proven players.
-
Rutschman also gives the Sox another leader in the clubhouse. He also knows the AL East well. There's no doubt in my mind he makes the Sox a better team, especially going into the PO's.
-
When the Sox got Schwaber a few years ago, he too was injured and didn't play for almost a month after the trade.
-
I believe it's much too early to state that the Sox overpaid.
-
And they make for a good conversation piece for years after.
-
Actually, Wong is an above average backup catcher.
-
Well, we got a catcher. But the farm is now a dust bowl.
