February 11, 20206 yr Sox should claim Kyle Garlick, who was just DFA'd for Mookie. RH hitting OF. Two options remaining. Mashed in AAA last year and played well in minimal MLB action. Not sure off hand how the glove grades, but would be at worst good AAA depth for Eloy or Mazara injury, and could even be an MLB bench piece / platoon option for Mazara. Maybe have to trade for him, but Sox should do it. The two options remaining is very valuable.

February 11, 20206 yr CBS new power rankings. Respect is still an illusion. Sox at 18 Twins 3. Fair to suggest that the Strohs may be falling back a bit. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mlb-power-rankings-dodgers-have-mookie-betts-but-yankees-have-top-spot-entering-spring-training/

I'm very happy with 18 going into the season, we have so many young guys and our SP's have very little track record so we are going to have to prove it to move up the list. Being ranked about Trout+rendon's Angels and the Padres is actually pretty surprising TBh.

After making a big deal up front about how "2020 is not 2019" they basically just reproduce power rankings from the end of 2019 with a few little tweaks. It would be fun if one of these would actually take a position and predict huge jumps/huge declines that will inevitably happen over the course of the season.
