The Grandal will come out tomorrow, you can bet your bottom dollar
I think it’s fair to hold Rick Hahn to a higher standard than Soxtalk.com, yes.

Until other teams released superior players, nick williams played LF. That was before Robert was hurt. Our top prospect had to become a LF on a dime. Just because it somehow worked out doesn’t mean that planning was A1

Not sure if using the result the measure the process is the best approach, but nonetheless it has worked out. Counting on Billy Hamilton and Brian Goodwin being released and being contributors isn’t really something you can bank on. That’s more of a fringe competitor strategy. Counting on guys like Jake Burger is absurd. I’m not suggesting they don’t know what they’re doing, moreso that they have a tendency to act like second place teams instead of big boys.

Bad at creating depth *in the off-season* Not suggesting they don’t deserve credit for in-season maneuvering, but there is a distinction between the two that I thought was clearly made.

Farhan Zaidi (apologies bc I’m too lazy to check name spelling if I’m wrong) recently said the most overrated thing in terms of roster construction is the 26 man roster. He is 100% correct. Most teams never/rarely see this offseason primo roster actually come to fruition. as usual, the Sox were bad at creating solid depth in the off-season. To some credit and some luck, they managed piece things together.

Active roster, as it currently stands, is pretty damn good in terms of available players. That excuse doesn’t really exist anymore. I’m ok with some tinkering/rest/experimenting, however. I think health should take precedence over anything else until October hits.

WSJ article about Tim Anderson
It’s corny as hell but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t cry at the end.
