Joc was pretty terrible in 2020 for what it is worth

Tough decision ahead for the Sox. The tiny glimpse we saw in 2020 showed he can be an impactful bullpen arm right now, but it may be better to let him develop in the minors as a starting pitcher in the long run.

I believe in giving second chances. It is difficult to argue that any other candidate out there has a stronger track record though.

I think Hinch gets the job. Great track record of success with Astros. World Series champion. Would be a huge hire for the organization

My gut is telling me Hinch's positive track record has him as a leading candidate for the job. This is shaping up to be a fun offseason for the Sox

Highly unlikely that Vaughn could hold up and play passable defense in the major leagues at RF He simply does not have enough speed per scouting reports and would be a liability out there

Really interesting they are calling up Crochet. I do wonder if this means Bummer/Rodon are not likely to return this season.

I doubt the Sox rush Crochet to the majors at this stage. Why rush his development?

I do not think the Sox are going to screw with one of their top prospects and ask him to play considerably out of position. Short of an injury, I think they leave him in Schaumburg and work to get him ready for the MLB in 2021

Jonathan Stiever is looking like a quality draft pick^

Sox would be wise to wait a few weeks and call him up late April

That is not an ideal way for a true contender to go about managing a bullpen. Even though it is not always pretty, do not discount that Colome has gotten the job done for the Sox. I could see us bringing him back

Bauer is going to be the most sought after free agent in what is looking to be a pretty weak overall FA class. He would be a great rotation addition, but I think he will get paid huge money given the lack of other quality SP options out there.

I think the majority of Sox fans are loving every second of this ride, even the struggles, because we know what this roster is capable of doing. Nothing wrong with looking to the future, which should be very bright

Signing Colas would be a big win
