    Is Connor Wong a starting catcher?

    I think I've said this before but I'm a huge fan of Connor Wong. He's just entering his prime, he can whack the ball, he has to be the fastest catcher on the basepaths, and he can control the running game. He's also inexpensive. Also, I know whatever is going on with the staff is due to that...

    May: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    I know- this has been huge, along with Duran playing good defense in center. Good pitching and good defense is like a nice warm sleeping bag.

    May: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    I freaking love this team. How can you not? It's like they can do no wrong. I know it's early, but there's something about this season that feels special. Maybe it was the low initial expectations. Or the freaking awesome starting pitching. I think it's all these "non stars" playing like...

    SS possibilities going forward

    I don't know if this is still the approach used by the rays, but I know a couple years back they had what seemed to be an entire team of solid players, and they all got roughly the same playing time. This is an interesting approach, I think, and one that I could imagine fitting the team well...

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    I know he was pretty good before we got him for 2023, but he seems to have fallen off quite a bit since. I'll be glad when we finally move on from him.

    He just makes me nervous, every time he goes out. But hopefully he proves me wrong, and no sense dwelling on the negatives. Great game, exciting team... Lets go sox!!!

    What an enjoyable game. Loved the energy and the defense, and the speed and the youth. Only negative was Joely. Hopefully he can get things together and contribute.

    Let's Predict the 2024 Red Sox Season

    I noticed that too. It could also be that early spring feeling. That hope and optimism and "if I squint just right...." I was really hoping for JM until a little while ago. I think until I saw rotation fall into place as it is. I really like these guys, and I'm glad they're all getting a...
