July 7, 20232 yr I love that Brett redacted the name of the 5th starter Hahn acquired that is on the IL yet again. I don't watch his starts and hope he gets healthy and is moved in July just to remove this stain from the franchise. Zavala's catching provides value, but the Sox could use a second competent catcher to help the pitching staff. Burger will fall behind Vaughn now that he has to play 3B as a regular for 1-3 more months. Really hope a team wants Eloy and the Sox are prepared to move him this month or in the offseason. Continue to play min contract guys like Burger or Sheets at DH during the upcoming latest "tear down / rebuild". Do not piss away more money on guys like Yonder ($8M) or Parrot ($13M) over the next few seasons. The DH spot should only be filled by a truly elite hitter that can't field (including 1B), otherwise rotate players to rest from playing the field. To dump significant money on a DH who can't field with an OPS under .800 is literally lighting a pile of money on fire. .850 is the bare minimum to consider to acquire an exclusive DH, .900 OPS plus should be the actual target, if one "must" acquire a DH only player.
