Eloy does look slimmer from last year.

Yonder wants you to not look at his stat line from 2019.

I feel like the new shift changes don't help lefties who go up the middle as much as lefties that are strictly pull hitters. They can still put a SS right next to 2nd base. They just can't put the 2B in the outfield.

Yeah I'd be fine with Gonzalez or Witherspoon if they're still there at 9. The secondary is probably the best part of the defense right now, but it's still not very good. Adding a top-end CB could help a lot. You could probably move Gordon to slot corner where he might not get as exposed as he did last year on the outside.

I think if Yoan were back to at least 2021 form, he should be hitting 2nd. That allows you to hit Benintendi 5th to split the righties.

Depends on what they do in free agency, but I think they go BPA if they solve the line today with some signings.

Cuba looked dead the first 2 games. Hopefully this Mexico game is a kick in the ass for team USA. They really haven't looked all that interested on offense so far.

If we don't win the WBC, it'll be because the pitching is mediocre at best.

Good to see TA not pull the ball on the ground with a guy on base.

The bobble is probably what cost him there.

Nice play by TA to start the game, but that's gonna get overturned.

Jason is calling the USA Mexico game

TA is playing SS tonight

Man can they just DFA Leury?

There was a video on Sox Twitter of Katz telling Kopech the shapes of his pitches look much better compared to last year.

Cuba advances along with Italy. Netherlands really blew it after starting off 2-0. I think according to the tiebreaker, Cuba is actually the 1 seed in group A so they will avoid playing Japan until the semi-finals. Looks like Robert and Moncada get to play maybe 2 more games.

If Cuba hangs on, they can advance if the Netherlands beat Italy.

How is Eloy not starting? They could just have Devers play 1B and DH Eloy.

Meatball Mark is a better nickname for him

It's crazy how Trayce Thompson has turned into a useful player.

Those Great Britain jerseys are so bad. Did they design that in MS Paint?

Apparently the Packers offered a first for Moore last year and Carolina declined. https://packerswire.usatoday.com/2022/11/06/packers-offered-first-round-pick-for-panthers-wr-d-j-moore/

We have to spend something like $240 million to meet the minimum this year. Moore has $40 million guaranteed, his salary is cheaper than what you'll find in free agency.

Brown at least had a competent QB in Tannehill. Moore's been productive except when Baker Mayfield was QB in Carolina. Moore isn't elite or a true WR1, but he's a huge upgrade over anyone on this current Bears roster or what's out there in free agency.

Looks like Poles pressed Force this trade
