I mean if he puts up a regular .700 OPS and lives up to his plus defensive scouting report, the kid would be a top half catcher in MLB. Yeah he isn't a star, but is a starter.

He doesn't have to be a star to have big value. There are 21 catchers in MLB who have put up 400 ABs since the start of the 2023 season. The median OPS of that group is .728. 6 of those are above .800, while 6 also have one under .700.

Hopefully the kid shows he learned something from whatever lesson he was being taught.

Better than his bat for sure, so he would fit right in, even at age 40.

Dude had 180 ABs in AA and an .851 OPS.

Is he playing 3rd tonight? We need another washed up defensive specialist.

Wait til today.

I don't get, what is this thread for?

One of your better troll efforts. 2.5 ?

Yeah he is making somewhere around a player minimum salary. I don't believe this post for a second.

This is just wild.

I definitely agree the manager of this team does matter at all. This roster is a tire fire.

His ego wouldn't allow him to say no.

Angry White Guy = Leader

And it isn't just futuresox, he got national attention.

Because rushing prospects is a large part of why the last 20 years have failed.

That's his wife.

I would bet money the Hobson deal includes an option to buy the majority share in the future. The Sox had always refused new minority partners until now. Putting 2 and 2 together, I bet this is already done for either Jerry's death, so some point in the near future, possibly contingent on the new stadium.

If I had to guess, the ownership change has already begun.

We did this already... it went back to his size.

Now that is loaded phrase.

Be nicer to have a line up that could hit, but micro victories, I guess.

I can't believe anyone who isn't paid to be there actually cares.
