  1. Meant 16.4, but when you said minor leaguers, i think you meant pre-arb.
  2. is adderall allowed? If you have a script? Kinda gray area Cuz like its medical, but it would help his production. Give Duran some speed (the drug, not the attribute) and hes back to 8 WAR+ lol
  3. doesnt give me hope he'll be serviceable at infield.
  4. probably because they had a 2b who couldnt play OF and this way they could get both bats in the lineup.
  5. Id do it. In 2026, elite Catchers pick up a CF glove and become elite CF's in a year. Everyone is moving around. Duran's CF defense + 2b Raf's defense vs Raf's CF defense vs Durans 2b defense 80+80 vs 100+ ? Does Duran clear 60 (on a 1-100 scale), eh, honestly probably not. So I wouldnt do it, becuase Id play Cedanne there instead.
  6. 820*20 = 1.64, the difference is prob like Campbell (minor leaguer making more than pre-arb)
  7. Not with sales body, though. You gotta have the frame to pitch like that for that long. Crochet will leave Sale in the dust because he works out.
  8. This is probably the first time a pitcher has been my favorite Red Sock since Pedro.
  9. Crochet changed everything. We are now a playoff team, looking to get better and the next step is deep playoff run aka true championship contender (I wont split those hairs) He starts the clock in a way, because in a world without Crochet, we dont make the playoffs and we are talking about developing, building a core. But with Crochet, that hurdle is cleared and that is why I suspect some of us (certainly me) are more aggressive (on here) with wanting the team to be more aggressive with roster building/improving. Im not sure how long Crochet will be at or near the top of the mountain, and thereby how long the window will last. But Im feeling a sense of urgency to maximize his prime, and thats a big reason why I really want to improve the offense.
  10. Yes, but not a real ring (the phone answerer). There are two tiers of rings, all players get the real one. Non baseball employees, and GM rank-and-files get replica/costume. But I would imagine GM himself and maybe top assistant get real rings. Dont think scouts do.
  11. And do you think youre helping that by needling him?
  12. My issue is that I seem to hear / read that defensive player x has fallen off a cliff defensively based on advanced metrics when they look the same to me and I wonder if theres sample size issues or other weird variables are skewing data.
  13. Careful. He will punt on the season.
  14. I lean towards Narvaez being good because he was only a rookie last year, he has a short/stout body with tree stumps for legs, and he grades well defensively.
  15. I feel like I could construct a player prototype to manipulate WAR
  16. Yeah, TY for the details, I just remember his defensive metrics being a mixed bag, then somehow, they all flipped (so still a mixed back, but inverse to the previous mixed bag). Which I found weird. And I feel like defensive stats , even the complex ones are wonky and I feel like WAR is wonky.
  17. Why is that a pipedream? Baty sucks.
  18. I would pay money to see gary sanchez footrace triston casas. In a 40 yrd dash, we'd prob have time to watch the beginning, go get a beer, and make it back for the end.
  19. Not Drohan because he went to florida state, and my friend is a seminole and i like that friend and he likes drohan.
  20. well there will prob be some lefty starter overflow into the pen right?
  21. Wait nevermind, hes dead RIP hold on..... Nobody is going to catch Barry Bonds HR record in his lifetime (career, single season might get got) but that doesnt mean....
  22. Nobody is going to catch Rickey Hendersons sb record, but that doesnt mean that hes an elite player in 2026.
  23. Tough thing about catcher position is that we dont know if Narv dropping off at the end was him reverting back to the player he is, which is still solid but not like a no-doubt starter. Or if he just fatigued/rookie wall, and what we saw from him prior to the end of year drop off was the real Nav (which would make him a no-doubt starter) In either case you prob want to plan for more reps for the other catcher, but Im not sure Wong isnt a solid backup C in his own right. He is quite athletic for a C so hes not without tools. ANd I think on the D side (which is prob most important for backup c) - his metrics seem to be all over the map, which makes me distrust the metrics.
