I don't think he really has a high enough ceiling. Would love to see him play 3B all next year to find out though.

That would be huge.

Yeah I think they're just spitting out s%*# that other reporters are saying is going on (FA and trade discussions) and also throwing out guesses.

Claim any and all

I have more of a problem with the teams that have like $50M payrolls not spending than the teams like the Dodgers and Yankees.

Especially since they gave up something to get those guys.

Yeah this was pointed out in the thread that it takes a lefty off the board and from a team that posters didn't really like as a fit.

Yeah, it seemed like they spent on the guys worth spending on like Betts, Freeman, Ohtani: true superstars in the game. Yamamoto if he lives up to the hype.

You naming off 3 guys who hit from the left-side made me take a look to see if they are a potential candidate for a bad contract swap for AB.

Feels safe to say that if Colas didn't get any shot in a year they lost over 120 games, he's a nonfactor to get much time in 2025.

Yeah as of now with the guys here, I would go with: LF: DeLoach CF: Robert RF: Fletcher DH: Benintendi Then gives guys some ABs in the DH spot here and there and let Benintendi play the OF. So again, for me, it would depend on if they did move Robert or AB.

He's a guy I think could get a starting gig somewhere so unless you're making him the starter in RF, I don't think he would sign here. I would also play many of the mid-20 year olds we already have here (some that we traded for) to see what we have. Edit: guess it also depends on how it shakes out possibly moving Benintendi and Robert.

Teams could get 2 outs on one pitch! IBB to Soto then first pitch double play. In all seriousness though, the guy knows the zone so well that he would probably walk at least 200 times.

If it’s 2 top MLB prospects and Bohm then sure.

He does nothing for the Sox with 2 years of control.

Play the young guys.

Right now, I think I would. They absolutely should ask for the moon. Having said that, Robert will be the starting CF on the Sox on opening day.

I can think of one: he’s terrible.

I will say, I'm really shocked you haven't been pounding your fists for Madrigal reunion.

What is a new hitting coach going to say that an old one didn't say about this exact situation other than "layoff the garbage."

Agreed here. No one is going to give them what they want.

"How Long Until Chris Getz Real?" A truly missed opportunity.

Dude just played the second most games in a season of his career at 100 games. It’s not “if he gets hurt” it’s a matter of “when.”

He really does need other hobbies
