    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    I think when O’Neil returns they have to decide if they want Rafaela to play CF or get ABs in the majors. Because it can’t be both. Either send him to AAA or play him mostly at SS

    4/18 vs Guardians

    Yoshida better lead off here but Cora is too stubborn

    Dalbec sent down to AAA (recalled to BOS on 4/12)

    I honestly don’t think it’s that amazing. Seems expected to me. This is why I was more concerned with signing Soler instead of Montgomery even after Giolito went down. But it seems the Red Sox have basically given up on Yoshida in LF when I was willing to give him another chance. At least at...

    4/18 vs Guardians

    I almost made a joke yesterday that a catcher should DH but I was not being serious. This lineup is horrible my god

    What to do with Yoshida?

    A little more than 10% of the season is over. He was projected to be a top 50 to100 hitter by every projection system. Sure it's heavy OBP driven and his complete lack of defensive value hurts him. But I don't get wanting Devers at DH and I don't get paying 75% of Yoshidas salary to trade him...

    2004 WS Celebration

    This is what I am choosing to believe

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    You act like Yoshida and Duran are going to play 162 games. They can sit out once every two weeks vs LHP. Also the option to play SS once a week seems pretty realistic right now and he can 100% do that vs just LHP. And we still have the option of putting Refsnyder at 1b potentially. I am not...

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    I think he should play every day vs LHP and bat top 5 in the order. He can play anywhere in the OF or DH depending on if C-Note is in CF or SS

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    I don't think looking at career OPS without adjusting for context is a great way to evaluate what will happen this year. For example just take a peak at Story and his career home/road splits vs LHP. I don't think Ref is great but with Story hurt he for sure has a place on this team. And even...

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    What about the fact that he is the 3rd best hitter vs LHP on the team? I like the idea of having Rafaela play SS vs LHP when Refsnyder is back and having O'Neil play some CF.

    Someone tell Cora that O’Neil is the best RHB on the team

    Remaining Free Agent Speculation and Signings (Trades, too)

    I think if anything we learned over the past few months is that it’s easier to project talent over innings. Now I still might rather have Montgomery for the QQ aspect and not giving up a pick. But I just disagree with the innings premise

    Offseason rumors

    And now he is trying to get paid like that which is the problem. We will see what his contract comes in at. But personally I think Sox are better off seeing what they have in Houck and Crawford. This is assuming he gets more than say 5/115

    Offseason rumors

    Ya a lot can change in a year and the FA crop can be evaluated then. But one thing that won’t change is Montgomery being an inning eater 3 and without an ace ceiling. Something that I don’t think this staff needs this year at his projected cost.

    Offseason rumors

    As of now that does not seem true at all. Wheeler, Burnes and Fried are all legit #1s. If Montgomery is your game 1 starter you are not looking great. I am not even sure I would want 5 playoff innings of Montgomery over Pivetta. I am also very pro signing Pivetta to some 3/45ish extension right...

    Offseason rumors

    I do think that yes. Maybe at end of year he won’t be. But tomorrow he is. edit: I did almost say he has to be better hitter than Yoshida. But still I think that only fits Soler of what’s available

    Offseason rumors

    If Red Sox are signing anyone to get the majority of their bats at DH they better be the 2nd best hitter on the team. Only guy who fits that is Soler. I’m still holding out hope they bring him on for 1-2 years

    Moves I'd Make

    I am 100% out on signing Montgomery to whatever deal he is going to get. I am not convinced he is even going to be better than Pivetta this year. The Red Sox need an ace and at this point I would wait until next year to sign one. I would use the money this year to extend Pivetta, Casas and...
