Hate Walker's name being mentioned. I would trade Walker in a NY minute in a package, but not for Mazara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry and the kids already have a buyer and they're going to Vegas. GMAFB. The Sox aren't leaving the Chicago market. A new owner would realize the potential this team has if willing to spend money. If a team is going to Vegas, it'll be a small market team like the Rays or A's or they'll do an expansion team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can take on a bigger pitching contract and sign a ryu or even a bumgarner (won't happen as I dont think either side are interested) because they do this, then I'm all for it.

Dick Allen Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) This guy is one month older than Moncada. If Moncada would have hit what Mazara hit this year would he be considered trash? I don’t want to put him at Moncada’s level, but there is reason to believe there is more there than what he has shown.

Counter argument: The Cubs are so entrenched that new ownership realizes it's a futile fight. Would rather be in a 1 team town than take the Cubs' scraps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Deep Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I dont mind Mazara. Lots of untapped potential. For rebuilds to work you have to hit on some unexpected players. If he works out great, if not then you move on from him in a year. There is lots of talent there with him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also said Abreu is a "phenomenal first baseman". Said it before, but I think he's going to play Abreu alot of 1B in the future than people think. And I also believe he is the guy who will keep the Sox (depending on moves too) from taking that next step as a playoff team because of his stubbornness and his stupidity. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Mazara, just mortified of the return. Plus, you know that if he figures it out, he's walking in 2 years because Scott Boras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also completely ignoring the fact that he's arb 2, already making just under $6M, and very likely will be a non-tender candidate in 10 months isn't exactly a fair way to frame it either.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 4 minutes ago, Baron said: His DRS has always been bad. Why would that change? That also factors in range. Theres really no evidence that DRS is a superior fielding metric than UZR/150. I certainly wouldnt ignore his DRS, which is why i said hes still below average despite his dead average UZR/150. He's not as bad as DRS says and he's not as good as UZR/150 more than likely. Teams, I imagine, have even better fielding valiation tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And like Parkman just mentioned as well, Boras is his agent. So even if he booms with us in the next two seasons, we likely won’t even be able to extend him anyways.

I am rolling the dice on him for a year with the full expectation to replace him next offseason. If the Sox aren't good this year, he's probably traded again.
