Adrian Houser traded to TB for former top prospect Curtis Mead
Mead just doesn't have enough power for a corner spot, definitely isn't a SS...and we already have about 7-8 potential 2B men. Sox love collecting former Top 100 prospects 2-3 years after their expiratoon dates.

An ominous future...
They simply couldn’t take the risk of an extension without major incentives. Naylor gone, Kwan likely out soon (trade in offseason) as they turn to impressive minor league depth. Baltimore broke through for two years…Cleveland could make the WC. Seattle and SD are decidedly not first tier markets. Detroit as well this year. But it’s really really tough now at below a $150 million payroll. Fwiw the A’s will be a real interesting case with their young lineup.

An ominous future...
Arguably four of the Top Ten players are out with extended injuries…Reese at least in terms of name recognition. Clark, Collier (MVP favorite), Stewart, Reese Paige Bueckers has been hurt a lot too…and they’re not guarding her 94 feet with double teams and traps like they do with Clark.

An ominous future...
Fed up with dumping contracts...half measures...getting left behind by Milwaukee and now the Cubs. Collapse of the Arenado/Goldschmidt teams. Lots of youngsters like Jordan Walker scuffling. Dumping some of their long time studs like Helsley whole scuffling around the .500 mark go for most of the season felt like White Flag trades. The leadership change in the front office isn't being all that well received either. 29% fall in attendance 2025 18th 29000 2024 7th 36000 2023 4th 40000 2022 2nd 41000

Would you be on board with a rebrand when Ishbia takes over?
Was everywhere in Osaka and Kyoto last month...only Dodgers and Yankees hats were ahead, arguably. Korea, same thing, Taiwan as well.

An ominous future...
No longer the case with their new media rights deal, which the NBA negotiated to their own advantage due to the controlling shares in the W. Look at the value of Golden State, Conn as there are already two competing buyers, LA, NY Liberty and the Fever. They've all gone from tens of millions a decade ago to the top franchises now being worth between $300-400 million. Three more teams being added and another 3-5 more on the horizon.

8/10 Cle at Sox
TOO many flares to RF. Too much topspin on his tomahawk swings.. resulting in 75-100 fewer career homers. Poor defensively. Terrible thrower...especially to second or almost never third. Couldn't bunt. Not a team player, stats first. Not clutch in the post season. Poor personal finance history until the last 10-15 years or so. Not as exciting as Auburn teammate Bo Jackson. Failed at being an NFL tight end. Best hitter for the first 7-8 years of his career (without PEDs) than all but those guys like Ruth Gehrig etc. Seems Montgomery comes out on top.

Burger? Although he never was ranked as highly in the Top 100 only to fall completely out of it due to his performance...rather it was the back to back Achilles' injuries.

Seen quite a few lists of FAs for next year and Civale is in the mid to late 40s and Houser's not even listed. Fedde might even get more...possibly.

https://padresmission.com/news-rumors/san-diego-padres/david-morgan-is-off-to-a-strong-start-but-can-he-keep-it-going-r2468/ Cool story about undrafted kid from a college nobody's ever heard of becoming a key member of one of the better bullpens in the game. Another guy who throws 97-99 in that pen, to go with Suarez M.Miller Morejon Estrada and Adam (soft tosser).

Colson Montgomery has arrived
He's not a fast runner and will eventually grade out around average to slightly below at SS and likely a lower batting average due to selling out for power...but sure why not? It's going to be a period of adjustments for both pitchers and Colson. Nice to see a Sox hitter as a rookie getting some intentional bb's.
