Agree on Moncada.

2021 Spring Training Cuts Thread
If they keep Lucroy, he can replace Zavala, as the Sox would then be 4 deep there on the 40-man.

Yep haha

Back to original point: Chris Sale...probably not a good fit. Might feel differently if upper management was different from last time he had issues with them.

So, thats not "sitting out 2019." Saying a guy "sat out 2019" implies he never threw a pitch.

Where are you seeing that he sat out for 2 seasons? He started 25 games in 2019.

Eh Sale is right where he wants to be. If I recall, he and his wife love Boston. He he even said Boston was one of the (the only maybe?) city his wife traveled to every year when they played on the road. Like you said, he has his ring so why would he care who pays him if he is right where he wants to be?

Idk that play happens all the time at third it seems and I've never seen it called a double play. Edit: if Maybin got back to second, then yes it would be his but I think he was tagged before he even got back.

If they tagged the runner who occupied first at second, first, then I think so. Edit: I'm not even sure this is right but I don't believe it was a dp. Feel like that type of play happens at third all the time throughout a season.

No, Chuck. That play isn't a double play...

Don't know why neither stream is working for me. Dammit.

Backup Catcher (update 3/29 - Lucroy won't make team, asked for release)
3 catchers to open up (1 DHing most of the time) with Vaughn in minors seems very possible. Then they dfa Lucroy or option Collins when Vaughn is up. The idea wouldn't be Vaughn + 3 catchers.

Good to head. I bet my first Pfizer shot on Wednesday.

Backup Catcher (update 3/29 - Lucroy won't make team, asked for release)
If Vaughn starts the year in the minors, they could break camp with 3 with Collins being the "primary DH." Of course Grandal could see at bats there too.

Thanks for the random weekly Torkelson update.

Game Thread - 3/13 Noon PST - LAA v. CWS
Same. I prefer Moncada 2, but if they want Grandal there and his OBP (I like Moncada there with his speed), I want Eloy 4, Moncada 5.

Rodon vs. Lopez
It wasn't when you posted this. He just signed with the Pirates.

Rodon vs. Lopez
He's a fresh of breathe air compared to Coop, who needed to go long ago.

Cespedes
The insider posted on twitter that they were discussing an extension so it's not that wild to think it will happen.
