  1. Not great…
  2. The stuff visually looked real good that inning. Hopefully he keeps it up. PCA on the other hand...
  3. Rest easy, Dansby is getting at least 30 with the torpedo bat!
  4. Probably not a great idea to throw a hanging breaking ball to Suarez.
  5. I can't get over how ugly Matt Shaw's swing is.
  6. Great recovery Shota. Now let’s see what Shaw can do against a 93 mph splitter
  7. I’ll probably eat crow by the end of the season but I’ve been extremely bearish on them simply because of their pitching staff. They weren’t great on paper and now have lost Montas and Manaea to injuries that are likely to cause them to miss starts. Now they are relying on a healthy Senga and Clay Homes in his first year starting. I’ve thought all along that they would be the team who pays up for Cease
  8. Yep Cowles having a day
  9. Not sure where else to put this, but found it noteworthy - "Thankful for Tom (Todd & Laura), spent a long time talking about the pursuit of him (Bregman). They were willing to sort of greenlight us pushing our budget". Maybe I'm looking too much into those remarks, but there's some good and bad there potentially. The good is maybe Tom was willing to go over the Lux tax line. The bad is if that is true, maybe there was a world where Nico didn't need to be traded and we had a studly infield with a nice super util guy in Shaw, which makes missing out hurt more.
  10. Your giving Tom ammo with posts like this. Trading Mookie in the first place was the dumb part. But is it really stupid for the new Red Sox leadership group to sign a good player at a position of need if their owner is willing to go over the tax line? I wouldn't call that stupid, they've had a damn good offseason. Moral of the story, context matters for each team/move.
  11. Anxious to see what the final deferral numbers are - Sox choose to block a better prospect than Shaw in Campbell, and pay a premium AAV (Well at least until the deferral luxury tax value is finalized). This is going to be a fun follow over the next 2-3 years to see how it plays out.
