Oh I don’t like Ruiz at all and don’t expect him to survive the season with the Sox, but just expect Romy or Lambert to provide a bigger impact given the lack of talent or depth ahead of them.

My case for Sousa just got a lot stronger unfortunately by the injury to Crochet. Of course he could suck and be replaced very early but he's almost definitely on the 28 and if he can survive April  by looking good then he has a chance to stick on the 26 once May comes.

@bmags and the Burger Boys looking good.

Romy's injuries make me a sad man.

I'm really bummed about Romy too. Who knows if he gets injured if he's up to start year instead of Mendick. Underrated how insanely good his year was last year. Now he may get skipped for good from Yolby.

It's depressing as hell that there's a solid argument that these changes could produce better results at this point in the season:

Healthy Romy --> Leury
Yolbert --> Harrison
Perez --> McGuire
Burger --> Pollock (Vaughn horrifically takes RF, Burger takes Vaughn's DH/1B role - also, this one isn't a hypothetical)
Haseley --> Sheets

Obviously they need to perform at the MLB level, but my confidence in those 5 Sox players has just plummeted.

Can we vote for Luis Gonzalez? No? He plays for the Giants now? Oh ok…

Had to save money on the 40 man spot!

It was probably more about not having a dead roster spot on an injured player.

Looked at the poll a few days ago and Burger was at 35% and I'm sure some of those were added after his  earlier  good run.  He's now at 49%. LOL too bad there's no expiration date on "predictions" that are like actual beginning of the season predictions and not based on results of in season play.?
