Time For the Hypo Trade Talks to Begin ?
Deja Doh replied to vegasbob's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
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. -
7/17 SOX @ Yankems 1:35PM ET
Deja Doh replied to SPLENDIDSPLINTER's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
Time to move on from these three guys plus JBJ and Downs. -
That pinky looks mangled. That will take another couple of months to heal.

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.

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).

Suzuki vs Story - Early Returns on Investment
Deja Doh replied to vjcsmoke's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
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. -
He was good until he signed that contract.

When does Story hit the field?

Red Sox focus now shifted to SS Trevor Story
Deja Doh replied to Larry33's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Move Devers to 2nd base, Bogey to 3rd and have Story at SS. -
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.
-
The Red Sox should grab Freddie Freeman while they can.
-
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).
-
It's going to be a long season. If we can get to 80 wins that will be a huge achievement.
-
We got 162 after all.
-
We are not playing 162. How many games will be played?
-
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.
-
With 3 months until opening day, the lockout continues.
-
This is just another terrible acquisition. Bradley was terrible before he went away. And amazingly he got worse.
-
The Sox should be looking at: 1). Freddie Freeman, 2). Corey Seager 3). Kris Bryant 4). Clayton Kershaw 5). Robbie Ray 5). Carlos Rodon
-
If I'm the GM, I'd make a run at Freddie Freeman. I believe he easily has 3 to 5 years left in him. The last time we got him out was 2015 and he got hurt during that game. Dude can hit and get on base.
-
I'm really going to miss listening to him on NESN. The last two years with COVID, listening to him tell it as saw it on air with that NE accent, really gave the broadcast a local feel (nothing against O'Brien or Eck). I always rooted for him from when he was at the Angels. That kind of history and perspective will be sorely missed. He had a tough life. RIP.

We need to up our OBP. Bogey at 0.353 is okay (it's average). But Devers at 0.338 is terrible. He needs to up that career average. Can he become more selective, sure, but he needs to do it this coming year or bye bye. Free Agents to look at: 1). Freddie Freeman - OBP 0.384 ** 2). Kris Bryant - OBP 0.376 ** 3). Corey Seager - OBP 0.367 ** 4). Anthony Rizzo - OBP 0.369 5). Michael Conforto - OBP 0.356 6). Brandon Belt - OBP 0.358 ** He'd be my first choice.

The problem for the Red Sox is OBP. Too many guys not getting on base: Franchy Cordova, Marwin Gonzales, Danny Santana, and Jonathan Arauz should be looking for new job. Terrible is a good word for them. Bobby D and Jarren D either need to figure out how to get on base or they are done after 2022. While I don't mind Christian Arroyo, he needs to learn from Schwarber and figure out the strike zone. He needs to improve his OBP or he's done. And while everyone loves Devers, and he's good, he needs to seriously raise his anemic OBP (overall it's just 0.338). At this point he's a below average player. Lots of big swings, lots of swings and misses (at this point he's more like Cecil Cooper). Think Jim Rice at 0.352 is low. Dwight Evans was more elite at 0.370

You robot fans must really hate people.

After Rodriguez's taunting incident, the Red Sox scored just 3 runs in 3 games (okay, we scored 2 runs in the bottom of the 6th and another run in the 8th inning of the game after Rodriguez completed the Top of the 6th). After that game all the momentum shifted. We went cold and Houston heated up. Rodriguez is supposed to be a professional (that's on the manager to counsel his players appropriately). Correa didn't make the gesture towards Robles (who gave up the homer) or towards the Red Sox dugout, but to his own dugout. Is that any different than the head tapping and waving Red Sox players do toward their own dugout when they get a hit? Nope.
