After watching Franchy at 1B, and Duran trying to play CF last year i don’t think it will look all that bad.
-
No!
-
Where is Yoshida playing?
-
That will stir up some excitement in Portland. I saw Jacoby’s first game many years ago, and this will top that.
-
I agree, and like I said last year I don’t believe he is in any long range plans, which is to bad, because the Red Sox certainly could have used him the last two years if he was any good.
-
I’m ready to go.
-
I don’t know why you are so hung up on Duran, but to each his own. Duran is one of those guys I talk about all the time, which I believe has gone from prospect to suspect.
-
Portland is the best bet at some point.
-
Still hyping that 78 WIN team? Let’s give them a participation trophy.
-
Let’s pump the breaks a few times here. 2023/would be a real long shot.
-
When the zRed Sox needed a CF, or RF last year Bloom after 2 months went out, and got a LF, which then pushed Dugy to RF, which I agree is not his best position. No doubt that an alignment of Dugy, Kike, and Duvall would be the best D alignment, but Dugy in RF, and Yoshida in LF probably won’t win any gold gloves.
-
Ok Sheldon, but you missed the point. Cora, and Bloom thought JBJ in RF over Renfroe, and Arroyo backing him up would make the Red Sox better last year. How did that work out?
-
Wow! All this Dugy trade talk, which I don’t believe will happen, and Duran still getting way to much ink then he should for someone who is not that good, or highly unlikely teams are lining up for him in a trade.
-
Funny, but I thought Bloom, and Cora knew more about which move would better position the Red Sox to make a run at the playoffs, so if Kike plays in the IF that must be it, and that’s where Kike would rather play anyways. Didn’t ticket prices get raised this year? I believe they did courtesy of JH, and no a good GM would have gone out, and gotten a reliable 1B, and CF last year, and not just watched the circus continue for 2 months, which Bloom did, and not relied on 39, and 40 of the 40 man.
-
What position Kike plays in 2023 is not going to make, or break the 2023 Red Sox. Kike would rather play the IF anyways, and there are bigger problems really than where Kike plays. Oh no who’s going to go off that precious 40 man to make room for Duvall.
-
And higher ticket prices to boot. What a deal!
-
If it happens fine, but reports of being in on Duvall have been out there for a few weeks now, and nothing’s happened along with being in on a number of IF. I’ll believe it when it happens. I keep hearing all the Duran talk too just like last year like he’s in their plans, and I don’t believe he is just like last year, and just like last year I don’t think he is used unless a very last option.
-
Sounds like good arm, but not that good a C, and does K a lot.
-
$2M if makes Red Sox roster. Can opt out June 1, and Jul 1 if not on roster, and return to FA.
-
Baez was your guy. Yes I agree Story would have gotten more if healthy, but he wasn’t, and I don’t know if there were many serious offers out there besides the Sox for the obvious reason.
-
He didn’t get what others got last year, and he’s not, and wasn’t healthy, and he not in todays market.
-
I don’t think Kike will flip anywhere, so wherever he plays he stays. I don’t think Duran is in anyone’s major plan either just like last year, and will only play if everything else fails. I don’t see Valdez in any kind of plan either, and would only be a last option kind of thing too.
-
I still think he will be the starting 2B just like he was going to be, before Story came up lame. Of course you would need a plan B, and C for backup.
-
With it Story got more than he should have. When JH opens his checkbook I don’t think he would be alright with paying someone who sits out a year whether it be Story, or Sale.
-
They were supposedly in on Suzuki last year too.
