    I agree on hope that he becomes an impactful everyday player, but he’s still a suspect who might have been set back a year by rushing him last year, and bouncing all around the field trying to find a position for him. He’s still a work in progress and needs more time in Woo.
  2. Old Red
    Haters is a pretty strong word. I have no problem with Masa if he is the full time DH. What I have a problem with is if Masa is taking up a roster spot as a backup DH.
  3. Old Red
    Romy could still DH depending on what they do there, and if Abreu plays full time.
  4. Old Red
    Both could be right. Romy if healthy would bat somewhere.
  5. Old Red
    I agree. Campbell is still a suspect who needs regular playing time, and more time in Woo is more beneficial right now IMO.
  6. Old Red
    I agree, but at least they didn’t pay part of his contract.
  7. Old Red
    Fred he thought he was answering me, but he posted you instead. LMAO. Wrong all the way around. Keep up the good work Fred you got em rattled as always.👏😉
  8. Old Red
    Yes, and all on JH who could have had Lester for half the price he paid for Astro.
  9. Old Red
    Who met Lester out it the parking lot? Yes it was JH, and that offer was all on JH. It didn’t matter then who the GM/HOBO was, and it doesn’t matter now the money is all on JH, so JH was relevant then, JH was relevant with Mookie, and JH is relevant now. Fred nailed it again.👏

    I not so sure about that. The Red Sox might of wanted Marte, but the price in terms of pieces, or money was out from what they wanted to pay, and that’s why the Red Sox Settled on the Much cheaper option In Durbin.
  11. Old Red
    Either way having Masa on the roster, or not is not going to make, or break the Red Sox season. If he was going to get regular AB I’d agree with you about keeping him, but I don’t see it, and if not he’s just clogging up a roster spot, and I mean clogging up.
  12. Old Red
    Every game counts once the season starts whether it’s in March, April, or any other time.
  13. Old Red
    The rush is right now. Where is Masa going to get AB if he’s on the roster as it stands now? There are only 2 bench spots open, and someone who as it stands now being only a Backup DH shouldn’t get one of them IMO. Eaton can play multiple positions, which Masa can’t do, and especially if Romy is out most likely would get more chances than Masa will get. Not being able to undue the loss of Masa is not even a minor concern to me.
  14. Old Red
    I get that, but I was just saying that an injury, or two could change the need for another IF that isn’t there now.
  15. Old Red
    Especially if Chapman doesn’t come close to what he was last year, and, or Whit, or Slaten goes down.
  16. Old Red
    I agree especially since there isn’t the need there was before the Durbin trade. Of course an injury, or two could change all of that.
  17. Old Red
    It sounds like Cora is keeping a close eye on Mayer that’s for sure.
  18. Old Red
    How about Bloom?🤔
  19. Old Red
    I would think KC would be playing everyday.
  20. 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.
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. Old Red
    A better workable roster with more options.
  24. 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.
  25. 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.
