I’m actually ok with Hedges. This team is going to suck. Let him help the pitching and young catching. Just hope that whenever he bats, it’s in a situation he can lay down a sac bunt.

Jake Eder update...
Won’t need to sign as many free agent pitchers thus off-season* haha

I guess you'd be subtracting Clevinger's 3.3 WAR as well.

2023 World Series- Rangers/Dbacks
I'm sure people are watching and just haven't come to this thread. I've watched all 3 games fully and haven't signed into Soxtalk at all while watching.

Seems like a missed opportunity
He was making the team regardless of the Eloy injury. (yes I know you’re joking obviously)
-
Jake Eder update...
He started improving before the trade. Who knows if it would have continued here though.

Where would one find said streams?

2023 League Championship Series
It’s been refreshing seeing starting pitchers goes 5+ consistently in the playoffs this year rather than the plug being pulled around 3-4 innings (if that even).

'23 -'24 Free Agency
It doesn’t but they literally got to the playoffs with 2 of the worst OFs in the corners in Schwarber and Castellanos.

I think it’s more that we didn’t sign him and yet, here we are playing slow 1B in the OF the last 3 years.

Perfect blueprint for what not to do during/post-rebuild

Adam Frazier, Michael Lorenzen

There’s no desire from the fanbase. Just connecting dots.

And then would still need another quality arm to slide into 4-spot. Permanent marker Kopech into 5 spot.

Blue-chippers? How about even quality major leaguers lol

Garfien latest podcast 10/17...
I still have a feeling they'll pair Korey Lee with a veteran. In that case, Lee can at least be in a platoon with a lefty/switch-hitter. Korey Lee also has 1 option left so not completely necessary to HAVE to carry him I guess. Already 25 though so maybe at least give him a shot in a platoon and learn with a veteran.

Agreed. Snell is a bit older but he can still get a decent sized deal. Even a shorter term, high AAV one.

I’m thinking Austin Hedges lol one of the few you guys in the league you don’t mind sac-bunting lol
-
'23 -'24 Free Agency
They def need some sort of veteran backup, preferably a strong defender.
-
'23 -'24 Free Agency
Lol this is where I'm at. We know it will happen. Let's see the damage.

'23 -'24 Free Agency
Merrifield is a lock but I would prefer Frazier. Honestly, I thought about it the other day, but maybe signing both makes sense?
-
'23 -'24 Free Agency
That Polanco option a slam dunk to get picked up. I think the Twins could move him though for pitching help.

Also Soler in the OF? I would put money on Eloy being available to play more games in the OF than Soler.
-

Being able to DH definitely helps. What happens to Eloy in some of these scenarios? Guess I will have to listen.

Candelario for 3B? Are you predicting they dump whatever of Moncada's contract they can?
