  1. Have any of you watched a Worcester game? There is not a lot there. Our minor leagues are in serious trouble. I watched a game against Buffalo recently, way overrated is how I would describe it.
  2. JBJ is a 0.228 career hitter with an OBP of 0.307. He's been a below average player forever. Why Bloom picked him up again is insane. But it's not just JBJ, Franchy Cordero is a 0.220 career hitter with an OBP of 0.288. And somehow it gets even worse with Jaylin Davis, a career 0.182 hitter, with a 0.261 OBP (why/how is he on our team?). Travis Shaw? Rob Refsnyder? Jonathan Araúz? Terrible.
  3. Hosmer is a professional hitter, though his OBP is sub-star.
  4. I've never heard this sound when Eovaldi pitches. Is it a grunt? It's weird. ESPN broadcast 8/1.
  5. Pham is 34. This is another nothing move by the bonehead CB. At least Pham has a career OBP of 0.358. We get C Reese McGuire for RP Jake Diekman.
  6. I imagine that half of the team will be (or are) on the block. The way we've played over the past week and half the writing is on the wall. The FA's (JD, Eovaldi, Wacha, etc.) will be on the move. Here's to 2024 or 2025.
  7. Even though he's 7 years older, I'd rather have Judge than Soto. I think the Yankees will come strong for Soto because of his lefty bat.
  8. Time to move on from these three guys plus JBJ and Downs.
  9. That pinky looks mangled. That will take another couple of months to heal.
  10. I'm not trading Xander. He is a good player (as a SS he's very good), but at this point he's not HOF. Next year he will be 30. Can he play 10 more years? I thinks so, but where is his peak? Are we seeing it today? Or in 3-4 years when his contract is up? Nomar Garciaparra peaked at 29. Then injuries. Our best shortstop until Xander was Rico Petrocelli (and he shifted over to 3rd at 28). JD, Eovaldi, Kiki, Vazquez, Wacha and Hill's contracts are up. JD has been solid and can continue to produce for a couple more years, but he's 35 next month. Maybe he gets a two-three year contract. I'd rather us put money into a big slugger like Judge. He's the premiere player going into FA (there is really nobody else). He'll be 31 next year.
  11. Offensively we are terrible. Of players with 10 or more at bats, only Bogaerts and Martinez have an OBP above 0.310. That's a serious problem. For us to be competitive we need to have 4 to 6 guys with OBP above 0.360 and a team OBP above 0.339 (we are at 0.280).
  12. The JBJ trade was beyond terrible. His career BA is 0.229, and his OBP is a paltry 0.310. Renfroe has similar stats but at least his OPS is 80 points higher. For Story, his career BA at Coors is 0.303, OBP was 0.369 and OPS was 0.972. Great. But away from Coors it's 0.241, 0.310, and 0.752 respectively. Not good. He was 4 for 18 (3 singles and a homer) for his limited career at Fenway before this season with 5 strikeouts. Clearly we need to have him hit at home, and against the East. I think he can adjust.
  13. He was good until he signed that contract.
  14. When does Story hit the field?
  15. Move Devers to 2nd base, Bogey to 3rd and have Story at SS.
  16. Sorry, but Correa is an average player. 0.277 hitter with a 0.356 OBP = not a star (he could improve). ARod 7 years in was star (he already had 3 - 40+ homer seasons and 1 - 30+ , 4 - 100+ RBI seasons, a 0.309 average, 2 - 200+ hit seasons. Sorry, not close. Try again.
  17. The Red Sox should grab Freddie Freeman while they can.
  18. Correa is not even close to being a young ARod. Correa will be 28 in September. He's never had 100 RBI's or 30 home runs in any of 7 seasons in the bigs. He's an average player on a talented team (with Altuve, Bregman and Brantley).
  19. It's going to be a long season. If we can get to 80 wins that will be a huge achievement.
  20. We got 162 after all.
  21. We are not playing 162. How many games will be played?
  22. Big Papi was a proven PED user. How did he get in if the standard is that PED users are banned? I get the BBWAA liked Big Papi, he was approachable and smiled and laughed with them (he was a good ambassador). He won several World Series. But tested positive in 2003 (when Sammy Sosa and Alex Rodriguez tested positive). What's different from Bonds, Clemons, Palmeiro, McGwire, Sosa, Rodriguez, Ramirez, et al. Unless these other guys are in, he shouldn't be either. And I rooted for him from the beginning. My first date with my wife was a walkoff hit by Ortiz.
  23. With 3 months until opening day, the lockout continues.
  24. This is just another terrible acquisition. Bradley was terrible before he went away. And amazingly he got worse.
  25. The Sox should be looking at: 1). Freddie Freeman, 2). Corey Seager 3). Kris Bryant 4). Clayton Kershaw 5). Robbie Ray 5). Carlos Rodon
