46DidIt

Yeah that was kind of my point in that response, that it wouldn't be a linear value as stated in post I replied to. (13m/WAR) Still not buying that 5 WAR is worth 50 million a year though. If the Sox signed a 5 WAR player to 50 million a year, would that result in an extra 50+ million in yearly revenue? I have my doubts

Sale never even had a 7 WAR season, but he had many seasons significantly better than any Crochett has had

Where you getting 7-8 WAR from? His career high is 4.1

So someone like Jose Quintana should be make around 35 million a year? Not sure where youre getting your maths. If I had twenty six 1 WAR players, I'd have a 330 million dollar payroll and a 74 win team, according to WAR.

You're telling me 4 WAR seasons are worth 56 million per now?

The ball went in the opposite direction of the runner though "No fielder has to have a direct path to the ball.The runner has to make the adjustment just like he's out if he gets hit by a groundball or line drive"

Looks like we might have some pitching and defense. May have to revise my 48-114 prediction

Ump ready to go home

Two of three. I'm guessing Perez is about to make it three

Nice recovery by Perez. Thought he lost his command there for a minute

I still don't expect much more than 50 wins but already have had more enjoyment watching this team than anytime in last two seasons

This lineup looking like murderer's row all of a sudden

He does seem less annoying so far. Couldn't stand him last year

Gordon actually a good defender but everyone remembers him for that play. That was true WTF moment

Aside from Amaya bunt very nice inning. Guys taking pitches well

Why show bunt so early like that, and then straight to first baseman. Horrible

Nice AB by Vaughn there. Hopefully reports of his demise have been premature

If that's the case, why would they want him around the developing players on the AAA team? They are allowed to cut him after all

Judge isn't even one of the players using a torpedo

Billy Hamilton, Craig Grebeck, Warren Newsom, DeWayne Wise

Pretty sure he was talking about the Crochet package part of that. Sox would be lucky to get half that package for Robert, ie something like Braden and Meidroth

I thought he was a plus defender Quero is only 5'9". Think it would be better to split them over catcher and DH

It would be nuts to dump Lee over Thaiss. Wouldn't surprise me though

Considering we have guys like Maton DHing and with Slater/Tauchman in a platoon situation, I don't think getting him at bats would be a problem. Play him in left and DH Benintendi. Taylor is a fifth OFer practically irrelevant

Mlb.com still showing no transaction related to Canario, although it shows Azocar cleared and outrighted yesterday. Doesn't there have to be some sort of transaction completed after dfa window?
