what about a big swing for something big middle infielder/3b, like Corey Seager or Ketel
Maybe we can trade for Devers?
Isaac Paredes seems like the perfect fit…. I think theres really something to those rumblings
Go get a Home Run Hitter
I like this signing…. A lot!
Need to find a 2B by trading Duran/SP/farm, it’s so painfully obvious. Cover 3B with Mayer, keep him on the left side so when Story is gone he can just slide over to short. Mayer arguably looked better defensively at 3rd than Breg anyway. Hoerner on a 1 year deal actually isn’t terrible because others could very well be ready to contribute at 2B by this time next year anyway (hence KC/Romero/Godbout etc.). As long as you don’t overpay for Hoerner I don’t think it would be awful, if you overpay it looks extremely bad in every way possible.
brewslow should call Minnesota and ask for David Ortiz.
With all the respect, GUYS! this team is good at least better than last year, we should star playing and by the summer we will really know what will need to be polish. In my opinion the options remaining on F.A. is not what we needs do not make desperate moves that you will regret later
I don’t think Boston really wanted Bregman for 5 years, they wanted him on their own terms. They can trade Bello for a right hand batter
Detroit would trade Skubal to the Sox for the right package
I like it, he's a pitcher not a thrower..if he tops out at 150 i.p., rest him in the middle and end of the season..I don't know if he's a #2 & I don't care..he is coming from NL to AL east which not every pitcher transitions well;however,it was NL east big bat division and DH has been in a few years..so he should be a'ight 😉🤔🤞
Lou spot on as usual. Of course being well rounded has always been that way. If the Braves had any hitters they would have won 6 World Series in the 90's. Maybe more that rotation was so off the brutal
On Lou's jock today lol but yeah thats exactly what we want. A number one thats a two in this rotation. Sonny and Ranger are threes in the rotation we're talking about
If they were signing an FA pitcher, this is who I wanted. Over Valdez and Cease. Trade Harrison for Donovan.
Donovan 2b, Story SS, Anthony LF, Contreras 1b, Duran DH, Abreu RF, Narvaez C, Mayer 3b, Rafaela CF.
Crochet, Suarez, Gray, Bello, then one of Crawford, Sandoval, Early.
If they want Marte it probably costs Bello, which I’m ok with.
They need a monster right hand bat. Spend some of those profits, Breslow! Get your head out of…
I think they're gonna roll the dice with what they've got with the possibility of adding before the mid-season trade deadline. Just a hunch
Sign bichette for 1 year 24 million. Then he can have a great year and get an even better long term contract next year 🤷♂️ everybody wins
Ketel Marte will be here by next week. Stay tuned.
In my opinion was getting ranger Suarez this opens the door for a high-quality bath where you have at least Bello Duran Duran now to move was maybe a less prospect not named early or Tolle I personally would love to get Nico Hoener but there’s risk involved with that because they have to make sure that they’re gonna be able to extend him past one year so they can keep him and I was thinking like as soon as our story is done playing in the next few years you can slide him right to shortstop that’s what I would do, but you have to make sure that you can extend him or it’s not worth giving up anybody
Sox went from losing 10-9 to losing 3-2 & this coming from a Sox fan. What a time to be alive.
How much Baltimore Orioles fan but I have to admit the Boston Red Sox is probably got the best pitching in all of baseball and it looks like that the Boston Red Sox could easily get you the world series this year anybody but the Yankees anybody
