Anyone that thinks a 4.9 bWAR is 'screwing up' doesn't know enough about baseball to warrant a discussion. He's the 2nd best CF in BB over the past two seasons.
-
That's the whole thing. We can weigh in, but GMs are using the best scouts in the world. We don't know what they are looking at and what they value. And a falling #75 might be a #150, and a rising #150 might be more like a #75.

Fred lays out all his opinions so he can claim he is right, no matter what happens. He doesn't really have opinions as such.

A Realistic Look at the 2026 Red Sox: Part I
JoeBrady replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Again, baseball is a game of wild variance, and some fans just look at short-term results. 110 games into the season, and we are roughly exactly where we should be. And some guys will out-perform and some will under-perform. -
This is borderline superstition on my part, but the Raleigh collapse always pops up in the back of my mind.
-
If Rutschman was healthy, and I got 1.2 seasons from him, maybe, if I thought it wouldn't affect the staff. Of if he was hurt, but I got two seasons from him, sure. That said, BA is only 1.5 back from the WC.
-
I wouldn't overdo it with Chapman. I'd go Guerrero plus the 3 Ws and hope for the best.
-
I doubt that the RS are looking at Rutschman.

A Realistic Look at the 2026 Red Sox: Part I
JoeBrady replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
I tend to think of things from an overall perspective. The full-season Py W/L is almost exactly what many expected (90 wins). -
We got lucky. That was a bad pitch for an 0-2 count, but it seems like those things happen when you're running well.

Should the Boston Red Sox Pursue Hunter Greene?
JoeBrady replied to Matthew Lenz's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
We have plenty of posters. If Moon needs to be traded to the Reds, then sorry Moon, but today is not your day. -
We could do that now, if you consider Bello pitching innings 2-6 as a rotation piece. Most teams don't like doing that.
-
Soriano has been for about 3 months. Webb is almost certainly not available. OTOH. your Gausman/Springer package almost seamlessly fits our team. Mayer would be an overpay, but I wouldn't hurl if they made that move. Maybe Mayer + some TO dinero if CBT is a concern.
-
He is re-habbing, so not really injured. IMO, depending on price, Holmes would an excellent get.
-
I didn't think they gave up much, but I just as soon the LAD get him as opposed to one of our competitors.
-
Weren't you the guy talking about Plan A?
-
So, even after admitting that no one knew what his plan was, you feel the plan was botched, even though it worked perfectly?
-
We have infielders and infield prospects as well.
-
When do you use it?
-
Ceddanne had a 3.0 bWAR in his first year. I'm not sure anyone knows less about the RS than Fred.
-
Too much of the plate on the 0-2 to Freeman.
-
Good, that's all I'm saying. No one knew what his Plan A was, and then they made assumptions based on, my guess, what the writer liked. And then blamed Breslow for not landing a player the writer liked. It's a nothing-burger, but we are now on the same page.
-
Moon-you have your own bowling team?
-
Read that back to yourself slowly, and let me know if you can see any inconsistencies.
-
He also projects to 7 HRs and > 200 Ks.
