    I do for a bullpen role, especially with the difference in their strike-throwing reps...

    There's still plenty of time for one of your first three to pull a body part and wind up on Cripple Creek. No rotation has more downside. Strategically, I see Mata with his frame/delivery as more of a starter, even if it's one time through (with the hope he evolves into a 5-inning guy), and Walter -- with his as-yet-unhurt Sale-type stuff, as a lethal reliever.

    I have a Grade 1 strain of my hamhocks overtyping about it.

    Big day for Red Sox and fans marching towards '23: Chris Sale pitching in a baseball game! Instead of a bullpen cart, the plan is to drive him to the mound in an armored car.

    I'm biased, but in any ranking of Yankee/Red Sox players right now after Judge, I think I'd take Raffy Devers next.
  6. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    Well, it is for guys like Oddanier Skeeter Mosqueda.

    Turn-of-the-century Sox fans may recall the dashed promise of a pitcher called Paxton Crawford. Now we know he was just a construct, a preview of a future transition, from a passed-his-primetime pitcher (whose time is passed) to a hopeful with a last name that signifies a World Series winner (Game 2, 1986; beat Doc Gooden... more famously, Steve bailed Bob Stanley to win the key Game 5 of the LCS that kept Boston alive).

    Or healthy...

    You're all pessimists. Why can't you see the Red Sox pitching staff as half-full?
  10. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    They're lights out every October. By the end of the AL playoffs, the Yanks' bullpen turns the lights out on their season.
  11. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    And for the 14th year in a row, the Yankees have the greatest bullpen in the history of this century not to play in the World Series.
  12. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    I didn't mention Bello because I already expect him to evolve into the next ace. Nobody will call him that, in deference to the grizzled veterans who starred back in the twenty-teens, but he's been the best pitcher on every team at every level in his climb to the bigs. Other players from those leagues will eventually make the Show, but there's no reason Bello won't continue to dominate them.

    After watching Murphy, Mata and Walter pitch on TV in ST games, I'm leaning towards this promising trio -- and not the old veteran starter threesome -- as the real key to the '23 season... ... because when one or two or three of Sale/Paxton/Kluber breaks down, these youngsters will take their place in some role on the staff. Hoping and wishing and praying that Bloom makes moves to acquire outside pitching is by now a waste of time (and resources); who is coming to Boston from another team this season that looks any better than Murphy, Mata or Walter?

    Luckily, when Song finally took his first solo flight -- after all those years of never flying (but dreaming) -- the Navy didn't limit him to just a take-off... and vow to stretch him out to a landing for his next outing.
  15. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    Eduardo Perez on ESPN's telecast just called Rafaela an "absolute can't-miss star."
  16. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    Of course, but he's young and strong enough to keep his balance riding a bike, for instance.
  17. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    He has his own line of t-shirts for sale in Worcester!
  18. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    Skinny kids were always in the back pages of comic books, getting sand kicked on them by bullies at the beach. Then they'd enlist and come back as muscle men. The country would even pay them to work out, so they could buy rootbeer floats for their dates.
  19. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    No love for Fitzy?
  20. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    Yes it is!
  21. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    He's now 25 and has been working out in the military for the past something years. Song could now be in better shape than when he last pitched competitively...
  22. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    When Dombro drafted Song and smiled this winter, he was looking at this forum.
  23. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    That's more reasonable, if not realistic. Guys across the leagues are already dropping like flies in the '22 Boston outfield. And the WBC hasn't even begun.
  24. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    No way! Red Sox are the only unbeaten MLB team in the world!
  25. 5GoldGlovesOF,75
    I noah song: "Nothing from nothing leaves nothing -- you gotta have something, if you wanna be with me..." ... it's by a little-known Beatle (added to the group in the Rule IV draft, circa 1970)
