#2 was true this winter, and it's still true now.

Yeah, I'm not sure anyone that's in the minors right now that works out isn't just another trade piece. They are so barren on the position player side that it's hard to see the Sox sniffing a playoff spot before the stadium deal expires in 2029.

What would you consider an acceptable deal?

Yeah, don't get attached to any of the prospects.

The Dodgers know what they're doing. Shame on us for getting excited about Nastrini based on one good year.

Doesn't Wolkow have a ridiculously high K%?

Not only that, but their top 3 position prospects in Montgomery/Quero/Ramos are flirting with Mendoza.....in the minors. Montgomery has a .392 SLG. In Charlotte. Quero has a .377 SLG in Birmingham Ramos had a .323 SLG in the minors and a .239 SLG in the majors All of them are barely hitting over .200. So it's not like they're getting tons of XBH.

I believe in Iriarte more than Thorpe, but Iriarte has risk to be the next Kopech. Kyle Hendricks is the ceiling for Thorpe. There's also a good chance that Thorpe comes up here and the entire league just sits fastball and crushes him.

No I'm concerned he's gonna just be throwing BP up there.

Anyone else concerned about Thorpe not missing enough bats? Struggling to get to a 9.0 K/9 in the minors does not bode well for major league success.

Bring back Ozzie chants at GRF. We have lost our minds as a fanbase.

Might be a reliever.

Wow. Another Hahn target failed.

Hahn and Kenny are idiots for misusing Crochet.

How long until they bench Benintendi?

Moncada was also worth 4 fwar in 2021.

The jury is still out on Shirley but the early returns are promising Crochet, Montgomery, Schultz, Gonzalez. I'm not sure that Gonzalez was a Shirley pick because one of these things is not like the others; one of these things does not belong.

As of right now Getz is more of a clown than Hahn. We shall see if he learns on the job or not.

Doesn't miss enough bats regardless.

Fedde regression szn

I don't think he has any value until July 2025 at the earliest.

The question on Crochet is that he's likely to bolt in FA before the Sox are any good. He only has 2 years of team control left after this year. I believe in the stuff.

Dumb ass baserunning.

I feel like Colson needed more time in Birmingham. I'm seeing the same pattern of rushing prospects as the previous regime. He has looked terrible aside from the occasional XBH in the upper minors. Also feel like they're making the same mistake with Schultz and Gonzalez. They're not ready for Birmingham.

This is great
