Wasn't Smith still the 15th ranked prospect after three or four jumped in there immediately after the draft? That's now somewhere between the 7th and 10th rated system in baseball. And still having a hard time believing Boston Smith is actually behind a rehabbing Mason Adams...who was around 11th. "Grow up" is pretty darned hilarious when the guy's at -0.9 bWAR and almost $25 million...and in the books for next season as well like that's supposed to be reassuring somehow. Control...though. Why would we want control versus payroll flexibility to pick and choose on the open market? At any rate, embrace mediocrity!!! Some of these so called experts really struggle in the face of criticism...taking their guess from Crabby Steve Stone I guess.

Not really...seen as more of a middle reliever at this point. Thorpe still the likeliest from that deal to get a chance as a starter.

The attention Sato is generating remains undeniable — representatives from the Mets, Angels, Diamondbacks, Cubs, Cardinals, Reds, and Tigers were also present. Phillies Yankees Dodgers as well https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/dodgers-scouting-japanese-slugger-amid-191141402.html&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwjcwJnW-JOWAxVCOTQIHc__BAUQFnoECAQQAg&usg=AOvVaw2aWBklaSlSx3UKQQqwZyRz

https://www.instagram.com/p/DYQOVPYvNqG/comments/ A 2026 surge has established Teruaki Sato as the best player in Japan, and the NPB superstar looks bound for MLB. After winning the Central League MVP in 2025, an amazing season so far in 2026, which MLB team will sign the 27 year old outfielder? https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/source-mets-recently-scouted-teruaki-194759368.html Doubt the Sox win if the Yankees and Mets are in a bidding war over Sato...

If we were a desperately overfinanced team that had to dump salary, sure

Use your GM skills to find/identify a catcher, please!!!

The catcher's position (aggregated) itself is already Bottom Five historically over the last 120 years...

Kudos for Vinny/Buzz Capra references!!! wasn't Brent Lillibridge originally a catcher? can't we just nullify the Luis Castillo deal due to injury and get the great Boston Smith back? Crash Davis??? Tom Berenger Costner's father in Field of Dreams Robert DeNiro Bang the Drum Slowly

Puig, Trevor Bauer, TA or Clevinger conversions at this point M.Maldonado out of retirement Yermin Mercedes Grandal/Moncada platoon Doesn't Max Stassi still owe the Sox for basically disappearing?

His whole season is fake. PCA doesn't exist.

Just read Messi's father died Big headlines in China...where he is kind of an adopted son

Would settle for just durable #2/3 guys at this point to solidify the rotation and not get hurt.

Magnum PI, NCIS and Matlock...

Poor imitation of Bradley Cooper? Cool? California? Not according to the media. Jon Garland was the last Cali cool Sox playerI can remember, unless you count Giolito, but his family is/was too rich to be counter-culture skateboarder cool.

Only when over $1 billion is it no longer real...

Edwin Diaz blew yet another save but AZ also choked on three opportunities to get the winning run in from third…and also had first and third, one out in the bottom of the 10th but hit into a DP to lose 2-1.

I would take Yerminator at this point. K.Lee with over an 800 ops at Charlotte, meanwhile.

game over what a week still not out of it but can breathe a sigh of relief for day or so Three game lead over CLE MIN Three and one half over Los Tigres

two outs

sigh run doesn't matter I guess

Quero looked like a real player at that point still

Genao at .438 this week

except JGonzalez
