    It sounds like Cora is keeping a close eye on Mayer that’s for sure.
  2. Old Red
    How about Bloom?🤔
  3. Old Red
    I would think KC would be playing everyday.
  4. Old Red
    I think teams already know what Masa can, and can not do, so I don’t think the WBC showing will have any effect either way.
  5. Old Red
    I don’t see that happening, but I’m not so sure the Red Sox are that confident at this point in Mayer either. Durbin is still a cheaper option also.
  6. Old Red
    Wishing/thinking the results are both the same, so continuing to differentiate doesn’t change a thing. You trade an outfielder, and then are left with 3, and if one goes down what have you got as a replacement the highly suspect KC? Like I keep saying Abreu hasn’t proven he can hit LHP yet, and prove he’s a full time player as it is, so I don’t see the outfield as being so deep that it’s roster problem.
  7. Old Red
    A better workable roster with more options.
  8. Old Red
    Who are the Red Sox going to trade ahead of Masa. I know the talk has been the Red Sox have 4 outfielders, and one has to DH, but 3 of them 4 are LHB, and Abreu hasn’t proven he’s an everyday player. I don’t see any outfielders at this point being traded. I don’t think Romy being healthy, or not have any bearing on Masa, but more so on Mayer.
  9. Old Red
    Even if Masa is on the team as it stands now with one of the outfielders being the DH I don’t see where he would get AB.
  10. Old Red
    You’ve got 4 bench spots. Wong, and IKF will get two of them. Do you want to tie up one of the remaining spots with a backup DH like Masa?
  11. Old Red
    Thanks for the kind words, but I don’t have to do that with you, because you do it all on your own. Just like all the times you said you wasn’t apologizing, or defending Bloom, JH, or #12 when you really was. Great job, and keep up the good work.👏
  12. Old Red
    And yet he doesn’t have a position, or a spot to get AB.🤭
  13. Old Red
    I think the perception is that the Red Sox have 4 full time outfielders at present time, and that hasn’t been proven yet especially with Abreu, and if he’s not another LHB like Masa doesn’t help that situation where another RHB would, and that is why Masa can be in the way.
  14. Old Red
    Versatility is fine, and that’s what you have guys like Romy, Sogard, and the IKF types for. KC in my opinion just isn’t one of those guys IMO. KC is still nothing, but a suspect at this time, and a work in progress.
  15. Old Red
    Can, not will, or even should doesn’t really change anything just like suggestions, opinions, or predictions differentiating doesn’t change anything.
  16. Old Red
    You’re right. I forgot when the Kut Man, and Houck got hurt.
  17. Old Red
    I don’t think at the time there was a good reason not to sign Betts in most people’s eyes. You know I’m like you when it comes to huge, and long contracts, but I think most Red Sox fans wanted hm signed. He was a great player in the prime of his career. One poster on here would have given him 14 years. The Red Sox were trying to sign Mookie before he became a FA, and there was nothing wrong with that. It didn’t work out. It doesn’t look as bad now as he’s nearing 34.
  18. Old Red
    I agree on depth, but versatility doesn’t necessarily mean it’s all good like all the 2B/1B the Red Sox went through the past two years.
  19. Old Red
    That’s why the Red sOX used 11 different 2B in 2024, because of versatility, and all the players who passed through playing 1B led by the great Franchy Strange Glove, because of versatility.
  20. Old Red
    That so many should be a DH?🤔
  21. Old Red
    Has 8 SP been enough for the Red Sox the past 3 years??🤭
  22. Old Red
    The Red Sox went out, and got Durbin, because he was a cheap option compared to Bregman, Marte, and all the other options that was mentioned on here to play 2B/3B.
  23. Old Red
    Still don’t see it for KC. Not this year anyway. Woo is the best place for him to improve not only with the bat, but with the glove if possible. Many things would have to go wrong with injuries ect, which could happen, but outside of that he’s still a suspect in progress.
  24. Old Red
    Yes it seems the more they moved him the uglier it got.
  25. Old Red
    I don’t see KC back in the IF. That’s what IFK, and Romy is for under your circumstances.
