    Enrique Hernandez extended for 2023, 10M

    What does 2023 look like?

    You should expect it to change because the Red Sox have not had a payroll less than 197M since 2017. I have them at around 98M for 2023 assuming they pickup the Pham, Paxton, Sawamura options, Xander opts out and before any of the Arb players get a raise just using their 2022 salaries. So this...

    What does 2023 look like?

    Dansby Swanson - 2022 fWAR 4.8 Age - 28 Trea Turner - 2022 fWAR 4.4 Age - 29 Xander Bogaerts - 2022 fWAR 4.4 Age - 29 Carlos Correa - 2022 fWAR 1.6 Age - 27 Carlos may be the youngest of the group but he definitely is not producing as well at the other pending top SS free agents. He is also a...

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    I got ya reverse Chris Sale right here. One gently used Big Sexy. He's timeless. Short, fat, durable, happy.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    Injury from punching a wall or something similar that would be characterized as grossly negligent. I'd be lying if I said it didn't cross my mind this morning.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    I offer up my 15 year membership as a lurker to the baseball gods. Please bless us with a Devers extension and an Aaron Judge FA signing this offseason. Thank you.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    If you are talking to me? No problem. Just trying to honor the spirit of Plympton91 in your signature box.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    Reply You seem to be having a similar analytical problem as Joe. We are talking about the rate of an occurrence per mile. I can now completely understand why this has been difficult for both of you.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    You are almost there. Now you need to find the total miles riden in both. Unless you think they are exactly equal? I guess asking for a full minute of thinking was too much.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    It was a truly maddening signing. Declining and 1 free extra year to evaluate. There was zero reason to do it. You both toss around antidotes and subjective superficial ruminations and demand data. My turn. Show me better data that proves your point.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    If you weighted the data to the location (metro city, his experience, his personality (mr angry punch walls), his body type, his current physical condition (injured hand) ... I would bet you his risk per mile is at least 50x a typical cyclist mile and at least 200x riding in a car per mile. The...

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    If you are going to be a pedant. Risk of injury from cycling compared to driving. 45,000 cyclists vs. 2.4M motorists were injured in 2005, from traveling 6.2 billion miles and 1.6 M-M miles respectively, yielding 7.3 injuries per million miles for cyclists and 1.5 injuries per million miles...

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    How about spending some of that 30M on a car service? Maybe we can stuff him in the back of a Brinks.

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    What happens when you fall off a bike... you brace yourself with your what? I get it we all know how to ride bikes hands free the point is taken. Still a stupid way beyond non zero risk. Tell me you don't take your job and injury recovery seriously without saying it. I'm sure he can also...

    Chris Sale aiming to return

    Entirely unacceptable. You get paid 30m per year to play a sport professionally. Your hand is hurt.. a very necessary thing to ride a bike competently. You go and ride a bike and and break your wrist. Selfish. Predictable. Stupid. Hard to like anything about Sale at this point. Thanks...

    Red Sox Trade Deadline 2022

    RE JD and and EVO. Same story as Story last year at the deadline. Comp pick has more future value than the prospects they were being offered. Big headline is they think they can compete and fixed the worst part of the roster IMO w/ 1b.

    Red Sox Trade Deadline 2022

    I see we are at the complaining about payroll and rehashing the now ancient Mookie trade part of the discussion. Is that anger or bargaining? I like the Vazquez trade. Thank you for your service maybe we will see you again next year. Enmanuel Valdez hitting .327 with 21 homers and a .410...

    Red Sox Trade Deadline 2022

    I honestly don't think it matters. Bloom put it best you don't allow a few games before the trade deadline change your organizational plan. If you can't win a series against any of your AL East opponents in the regular season it seems pretty silly to magically think it would happen in the post...

    Red Sox Trade Deadline 2022

    Coming up with potential trade proposals seems to be as difficult as it's ever been. We have an expanded playoff format which in my opinion throws off the balance of buyers and sellers. More marginal teams that can reasonably believe they will enter the playoffs should = more buyers. My...
