Do you think Bellingers drop off after a right shoulder injury has suppressed Confortos market after a right shoulder injury?

Not charged, but the league did investigate and didn't let him play for a year and a half. Easy pass for me.

They are currently in arbitration. They may owe him some money, and if they do, they will also owe some luxury tax.

So is the message to Eloy you’re now pretty much a full time DH, or is Eloy on his way out?

Yeah but if you’re getting your info from Fangraphs, Gallos projected WAR in 2023, which is all most of us really care about, is half of ABs. 5 years vs. 1 year, I will give that to you, but we will see. I think the ball is going to have a little more juice in it in 2023.

Just throwing to the correct base or hitting the cutoff man will be a huge improvement.

You guys thought the Sox were signing Benintendi. They are signing Benitendi. JR saves a few bucks. He's buying a knock off.

Sox record with Rick Hahn as a GM. We whine about nothing. This is great. For someone complaining about whining, you sure do whine a lot.

That's because his sources didn't want it coming out. They are only good with the fake info that he tweets.

If Robert is healthy, he's got big power. Colas, i would think would be surpressed as a rookie. Benen10D has hit some in the past. Eloy as a DH is a 40 HR guy if he stays in the line up. This is one of the better options. This guy at least works a count.

Hopefully it's not announced on a news dump Friday afternoon. If it is, it's going to be someone not so good IMO.

The Nets got fined for sitting 8 of their best players the other night. They won. Shouldn't the Pacers be fined for losing?

I think its crazy to count on him, especially if the goal is multiple championships. But he looks like he could be fun to watch. One of these has to work out sometime, right?

looking at both rosters, its pretty evident KW, RH and JR have no idea what a good OF looks like.

He’s owed $24 million the next 2 years. The only way Rick can have him is if the Mets eat a lot of money. I’m thinking they are going to have to do that.

One year after the Sox wouldn't give Rodon a QO,he was paid $21,5 million by SF, and guaranteed $162 million by the Yankees. How do these clowns still have power to make baseball decisions?

If Robert, TA, Eloy and Moncada can't play 125-140 games, they are screwed no matter who they sign.

It wasn't so long ago Bene10D was in the place of Davers now. Why didn't the Sox take him instead of Moncada. Obviously flawed, but he works a count and plays good defense. I think Conforto would cost less, so that has to interest JR. A big risk, but huge reward. This guy turned down 9 figures not too long ago. Oops.

Is that you, Big Hurt?

Yes, Brantley to me makes Eloy logging a lot of time in LF until he gets hurt, almost a lock. As a hitter, yes, but I'm with you, the team needs to upgrade defense.

To me, Conforto is the guy who you could score the biggest, but it's a crapshoot after a year off and surgery, and switching leagues.

The bar isn't too high there. I have no confidence the Sox can fix Gallo enough offensively to make him worthwhile. I would prefer Benentedi, but obviously that is too much for a team with multiple championship aspirations. Conforto would be my second choice, because if he's right, his offense will more than make up for any defense compared to Gallo, and if he's right, the defense could be a wash.

Gallo's defense hasn't been all that great the last couple of years, and is projected to slide a bit more moving forward. But, at least he will walk to get the OBP to almost .300.

He's actually supposed to be one of the nicest guys in the media.

I forgot about Herrera. How does whoever pick these guys keep their job(s)?
