Phillies blockbuster mock trade gifts them elite Red Sox 3B -
I get that pretty much every player has splits that favor them playing against a RH or LH pitcher. But these guys aren't robots. Many of them don't want to be in and out of the line-up every day and need consistent playing time to be in a rhythm. It looks good on paper, but won't always play out on the field.
-
I'm not sure, actually. From his statement, it seems to me like he thinks he's the 3B. Time will tell how it all works out.
-
That's great, you can "think" all you like, that doesn't make it true.
-
Again, why are none of his Spanish speaking teammates refuting what was printed?
-
I'm not sure you get it. If he said what he said then it was not lost in translation. Smh........
-
There's other Spanish speaking players on the team, literally hundreds throughout baseball and millions of people in this country that speak Spanish, yet the only one claiming that he didn't say what he said is you. Surely one of those Spanish speaking people would have spoken up at this point.
-
Whatever, dude, it's what he said. You can claim the translator doesn't know Spanish all you want if it makes you feel better.
-
Well, I do agree to a certain point. He didn't simply say "I want to play 3B". He stated "I am the 3B". That's why people presumed it may be a problem. But I do agree that nobody truly knows yet and it is all our own opinions. I certainly did not try to be a jagoff to anyone. Sorry if it was interpreted that way.
-
Maybe, he said he has no beef with the sox. But he also hasn't been told that he's no longer the 3B anymore yet either.
-
Yeah, like I said, bunch of excuses. People can interpret it any way they want. I saw a guy who wasn't happy about the prospect of being moved off his position.
-
?? Nothing political about my statement. Smh......
-
I didn't claim that he refused. Simply because he can't refuse until he is told to move position, which hasn't happened yet.
-
So let's base it on what you think may or may not happen and not on what was actually said, Got it, thanks for playing.

I didn't get "played", I listened to the interview. He was adamant about not moving position, pretty simple. All I see is you trying to make excuses and tell us what we saw didn't happen.

The media didn't "serve up" anything, it was directly out of devers' mouth.
-
Maybe, maybe not.

Umm, that's kind of in a writer's job description.

Red Sox sign Alex Bregman

Going to be interesting to see how yoshida responds from torn labrum surgery. Usually not a good surgery for someone who's entire worth is relying on his bat. -
Who's to say that he wasn't 5% worse then?
-
Argue with the stat heads, not me.
-
Regardless, it is how it's measured. And, last I checked, 98 is below average.
-
So, like I said, his was below average last year.

That doesn't mean he's going to be happy about it.
