    Beat the Giants today Maye 2

    first 3 games: 5 innings pitched 1 hit, 0 walks 6 strikeouts probably earned a 4th outing no?

    4.5 - Angels in the Outfield

    Obviously praying it’s not but if it is then this is a year for the kids. You call up Mayer because he’s that good. I don’t want to move Rafaela from CF

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Tweet from Jeff Israel: “Welcome back to SportsCenter Presented by ESPN Bet, for more on the Ohtani situation we go to our FanDuel MLB Insider Jeff Passan at our DraftKings Studio in Los Angeles brought to you by Caesar’s Sportsbook. Jeff, how could something like this happen?”

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Agreed. That’s the part that just doesn’t smell right. Given that the payment was made to an illegal bookie it may well be that Ohtani is going to be in potentially bigger trouble with the feds than with MLB. At least that’s what Yasiel Puig told me….

    Glass Half Full nuggets for 2024 Sox

    It is ALL exciting. I love baseball and I love the Red Sox. Have I joined in on the “front office should have signed a couple more players?” Of course I have. But now it’s spring training and everything seems possible again. I am imagining every young player breaking through…(Casas as an MVP...

    Sox trade John Schreiber to KC for minor league right-hander David Sandlin

    From MLBTraderumors: “ ESPN’s Kiley McDaniel recently ranked Sandlin as the fifth-best prospect in the Royals’ farm system, while The Athletic’s Keith Law ranked the righty seventh.“ I liked Schreiber but this seems like a big win to me. Especially given the lack of pitching prospects in the...

    Let's Lay Off That Throttle

    ding ding ding. Given it was a minor league deal I thought you’d notice the tongue in my cheek.

    Let's Lay Off That Throttle

    Sam Kennedy just said that the Sox were in on Miguel Sano until the very end….but the sides just didn’t line up..

    Offseason rumors

    I have come to the conclusion that the only SP worth “backing the truck up” for is Corbin Burnes. He’s the pitcher who I would like to be our ace for the next 6-8 years. I know he said he would want to test free agency UNLESS AN EXTENSION BLEW HIM AWAY. So, I am curious: - what player package...

    Offseason rumors

    I don’t see a whole bunch of empathy / understanding for players going thru personal off the field stuff. Yoshida had off field and on field adjustments to make. Giolitto had a divorce and two team changes to cope with. I remember the year that I got divorced and it had a huge effect on my...

    The Newest Vaughn

    We can’t know how Grissom is going to turn out but there’s several data points that cause me to really like his makeup. This highlight reel shows a young hitter willing/able to do the little things that can create runs. Hitting the other way and laying down a bunt. Attributes that we see too...

    What Happens Next if They Sign Teoscar?

    I’m pretty underwhelmed by the idea of signing Teoscar Herndez, especially if it’s 4 yrs and $70-80m. If we want a RH outfielder who has proven he likes to hit at Fenway and has a gold glove I’d rather re-sign Adam Duvall. Should take fewer years and less $.

    Not our Star Blazer: Yamamoto signs with the Dodgers for $325 million, 12 years

    not sure that there are many people who think that the Bogaerts contract was a good one. I’m a Sox fan living in San Diego and I’m still scratching my head.

    Offseason rumors

    Depends what that price was. If we would’ve signed him for 3yrs $39m but balked at 3yrs $45m because we want to sign a couple of $1m Cooper Criswells then color me not impressed.

    Red Sox sign Cooper Criswell for 1 year, 1 million

    I would prefer an off-season in which rather than Craig Breslow attempting to show that he’s smarter than everybody else, that John Henry showed that his wallet is bigger than anybody else’s….#where’sYamamoto??

    Shohei Ohtani is an LA Dodger: 10 years/$700 million

    yeah, will be fascinating to see how CA views this. Do you pay tax on the $68m per year based on your residence when you “earned” it, or when you “receive” it?!?

    The Dugie Down Bronx: Red Sox trade Alex Verdugo to Yankees

    I am a huge Wilyer Abreu fan. Wouldn’t be surprised if he put up better numbers than Verdugo next year if he gets the chance. Would happily give Verdugo’s money to Adam Duvall.

    The Dugie Down Bronx: Red Sox trade Alex Verdugo to Yankees

    He’s definitely said stupider things. Would make sense for the Padres if he were included as part of a bigger package for Soto and Grisham.

    What does the Red Sox middle infield look like in 2024?

    Of the trade options my preference would be Drury. He plays good defense and he would enjoy hitting the ball at the green monster. but my personal choice would be Rafaela. He is probably the best defensive in-house option and there would be less pressure on him offensively if he is only being...

    What does Red Sox starting pitching look like in 2024?

    i had thought the same thing. Having watched Snell here in San Diego since he got here it took him quite a while to feel comfortable after leaving Tampa. I think that he would see pitching in his hometown as a huge plus for him. it then allows Seattle to improve in other areas by trading a...
