I actually like this move. That he wants to save the “bullets” in his arm for *just* the Red Sox/season makes me love this man(iac) even more.
Positional players are one thing but pitchers are a huge risk. Essentially every additional pitch they throw slightly increases their likelihood of injury or wearing out by the end of the year. I enjoy the WBC but I’m not thrilled that the Red Sox have 4 pitchers / 2 starters participating.
I think it’s great that he chose to give the full offseason to his wife and new daughter. Hope the little piglet and mama crochet are doing great!
As a non-American Red Sox fan, I love this.
I bet he plays in 2030. And I’m cool with that. This is our window now, so save those bullets while we have em.
