  1. Oviedo - when he has command and control, his stuff plays well. When he does not have command and control, he is a train wreck. so far this spring, he is 50-50 on the command and control! Problem is, that’s not good enough a ratio and he would not transition well into the bullpen. he could be a long term Fenway flu candidate
  2. note to other mlb teams: If your team plays in a dome stadium, why aren’t you calling us up and trying to trade for yoshida?????
  3. Impossible to answer without more detailed data, but the question is moot unless story plays for the dodgers!!
  4. Last year I thought 87 wins. this year I am thinking 91 wins. crochet - 15 suarez - 12 gray - 8 bello - 14 Oviedo - 5 Cutter - 4 early - 5 tolle - 5 Whitlock - 4 chapman - 4 weisset - 3 slaten - 3 others combined - 8
  5. Maybe he should have accepted the Q.O. and saved himself a lot of drama!!!
  6. It is so painful to see story in the lineup in the top 4!
  7. If I had to guess 1 pitcher that is not on the 40 man roster that will see time in Boston this year, I would guess Mullins. if his control improves, he could be another option if our pitching staff is ravaged by injuries again this year.
  8. I finally got to see mayer’s arm in action at the ballpark for a few days. what shocked me was that the arm strength on the throws was ok, but not nearly as strong as I was led to believe from the writers!! (Maybe injuries are a part of it) the 3B for Toronto, barger and Henderson of Baltimore have much stronger arms than Mayer!! Barger throws bullets!!!
  9. I saw an interview where the Baltimore gm was good with his rotation. I guess, the reporters helped him to see reality
  10. I think Vegas would love this approach from everybody
  11. Does anybody have an update on Romy blown shoulder???
  12. Shouldn’t we wait to see who is healthy and who is not, before thinking about our 2026 record???
  13. Now that training camp has begun. I think bres-slow needs a huge round of applause!! - he got us a quality number 2 starter! - he got us a quality number 3 starter! - he got us a number 5 starter. - he kept Tolle, early and Witherspoon. - he revamped the leakiest infield in the majors. I know people will complain about Bregman and the lack of power!! but outside of a lefty or two for the bullpen, I feel very confident in the outstanding offseason he had!!!
  14. Arizona asked for Mayer and early and bres-slow said no thanks! best no trade of the off season
  15. Looks like romy has a bad shoulder and may need DL time.
  16. Excellent trade and I like the draft pick as well!!! bres-slow’s infield looks better defensively at least! (If everybody stays healthy)
  17. 3.) signing gold glover Brendan Rogers 4.) getting Contreras to replace Casas at 1st base.
  18. Seems to me that Mayer is coming off surgery and has yet to play a full pro season. Story breaks down more often than a 1978 ford pinto!!! maybe the ifk signing is a preemptive signing.
  19. I think another shift has been an emphasis placed on defense. Hang’em Chaim did not seem to care about leaky defense. bres-slow seems determined to not give the opponent extra outs! as bres-slow continues to accumulate ground ball pitchers, having above average defenders with exceptional range becomes super important
  20. Uberstine is definitely a bullpen arm. I read that Cora really likes Kelly in the bullpen
  21. Talking to framber about life in Detroit??
  22. We claimed gaspar off waivers. 40 man now at 39!
  23. I think they are hopeful uberstine and drohan can claim those spots. I think they see Bennett as a starter. I think samsniengo is not ready yet, but definitely a bullpen arm
  24. The last 2 spots in the bullpen should be a real dogfight. We got a lot of contestants and I think it would help if both were left handed
  25. As of today: 2026 starters - 1.) crochet. 2.) Suárez. 3.) gray. 4.) bello. 5.) Oviedo 2026 bullpen - 1.) LHP Chapman. 2.) RHP Whitlock. 3.) RHP slaten, 4.) RHP wiessert. 5.) RHP Watson. 6.) LHP Harrison 7.) RHP Crawford. 8.) LHP Sandoval if Sandoval and Crawford start the year on the DL. then 7.) LHP Moran 7.) RHP Kelly DL - houck Worcester - Tolle, early, uberstine, drohan, Bennett, samaniengo
