Meidroth, Quero, and C. Montgomery in the lineup would make games a lot more enjoyable to watch. Like we are surprised at the fool's gold known as a Sox prospect. Sox hitters are 29-30 in almost every MLB category. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only disappointed he may make his debut on a Thursday day game. Would've definitely made it to his first game had it been a night game.

WestEddy Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 1 hour ago, caulfield12 said: Omar Narvaez in his prime offensively is one of the best comps...kind of ironic he's now back with the Sox at the very end of his career, with Quero perhaps taking over his spot, essentially. Ironic, like a result that was the direct opposite of that which was intended, almost as if to mock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Quero can put up some of Narvaez's career numbers, that would be a net win for the organization. 1.2 0.5 2.8 age 29 with the Brewers 1.3 1.5 per season in his "prime" years I guess most Sox fans would have to hope for closer to the 2-3 fWAR range with Quero, but I'm certainly not expecting it.

Yeah. Montgomery shouldn't sniff the big leagues anytime soon. That dude is absolutely lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, whether they think much of Elko as a player or not, they may as well find out. It’s not like he’s a young top prospect and you want to save his service time for later in the rebuild. And they are already starting a bad 28 year old journeyman at DH in Maton. It’s too bad Schriffen wouldn’t understand your post. He’s not a Seinfeld guy. 😞 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
