May have had an injury too minor to sit out with. Maybe just a bad streak. People go back to what they are over the long run. But don't mind me. I've been on The Bryan Ramos Train for 3+ years.
May 10, 20241 yr What a pleasure to see a Sox minor leaguer come up and have some success and the team puts some wins together. All I can say is, MORE please
May 10, 20241 yr If you heard his post game interview earlier in the week, I think he is going to stick around for a while.

Unfortunately, I think he will be gone soon. When Moncada comes back, there's nowhere for him to play. He hasn't played anything other than 3B since 2021 from what I can see and there's no point in having him up and not playing.

Moncada at 1B might be the most realistic development. And I seem to remember somebody saying in ST, here, that Getz is very interested in collecting extra draft choices, particularly for the top 3 ROY voting.

Im not going to pretend to know what happens outside of my field of view but I would be pretty shocked to see Moncada at 1B or RF as far as I know hes never even taken a rep there. He hasn't played 2B since 2018, which doesn't mean he couldn't, but again it seems ridiculous that this would just happen now. I still think Moncada has a chance to be traded for something as well. If you're going to decline his option you are going to pay him anyways so pay him now and see if you can get something for him. That would require him getting back and performing and sticking him at positions hes never played before doesn't seem to support that.

If he comes back at the earliest portion that would line up with early-mid July. In my eyes Ramos has 2 months to stake his claim to third base. Ramos has played second in the past and received solid reviews defensively there, so they could try him out there if they had the urge to do so in a lost season.

Maybe im confusing Moncada with Robert then, I thought he was due back at some point by the end of the month.
May 10, 20241 yr If Moncada comes back, and Ramos is still playing well, this would be a good problem to have. This would be quite rare for us.

Moncada should be back by middle of July or maybe late July. No rush for Ramos right now he has at least 50 games ahead of him at 3B before a decision needs to be made. Ideally Moncada would get hot as the DH/3B and then be traded for anything.

He's hitting right now. This is good. Hopefully he keeps hitting.
May 10, 20241 yr Every time he comes to bat I think it’s Eloy because of the red gloves and I wonder “why is his stance all weird” before I realize it’s Ramos lol

I'm sure he'll get into a slump but for now I think we can put any talk of being "rushed" aside.

But the Getz stans making this face with Ramos succeeding as Soroka gets lit up, Lopez grounds out, Maldonado struggles to hit .100, Brad Keller exists, and the team fails to reach .300 feels incredibly thin.

I think you're going to have to tell teams: we'll eat the cost of the buyout for 2025, and we are willing to pay down half of whatever is remaining when he comes back and take back the best offer you can get with those parameters.

May 10, 20241 yr Moncada had years to cement himself as the 3B. He didn't hit enough the last 4 years to guarantee his spot when he returns from injury in his final year with the team. I have no issue with playing him at 2B, 1B, RF or just dumping him. I don't hate him as much as some people here (I like him more than Eloy, who I think is beyond worthless) but when he gets back on the team, there's no reason you need to give him his spot back.

Some people still hate him from the time he said he puts ketchup on his hotdogs. His play on the field is waaaaay under that for them.

My dad was talking to me about Ramos' english being really good and I told him about the Sox program for LatAm prospects to learn the language (which is actually really, really good thing that the org does and was started by Getz!). He all of a sudden criticized Moncada for...skipping classes? And I had to remind him that Moncada wouldn't have been attending English class at the Dominican or Arizona complexes since he never played there for the Sox.
