    A Dream of 2025, What is Going Right and Looks like the Sox can Build On

    Not sure Xander is the answer to your question here /s

    The Newest Vaughn

    Yeah, there's conversation all over the board about how large a jump it is to MLB. Scuffling for 100-200 at bats should probably be the expectation at this point. He had about that much with ATL but it was between 2022-2023 so I'm not sure that really counts at this point, and he's at 37 plate...

    A Dream of 2025, What is Going Right and Looks like the Sox can Build On

    There's also reason to believe that Abreu could be some approximation of this guy. He has an elevated BABIP but it's not THAT elevated (0.394) en route to a 143 wrc+, he's had years in the minors with 0.200+ ISO and he's not so old (24) that this power couldn't mature. He has a great approach at...

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    Did we actually have a guy named Short playing 2B today? Or is the MLB app box score f#cking with me?

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    This is a bit of a black box to me, but Fangraphs "offense above average" is a sort of counting stat that combines batting and base running: https://library.fangraphs.com/offense/off/

    Is Connor Wong a starting catcher?

    BABIP is 0.430 which is quite a bit higher than he's put up in the past. Will be interesting to see where he winds up when it drops 100 points but this has been a fun stretch!

    Casas has a left rib fracture. Transferred to the 60 Day IL on 4/27.

    Strikeouts are just outs, not sure why'd you'd fixate on that versus any other kind of out. Beats grounding into double plays every time he comes up. I like WRC+ because it weights the value of the different batting outcomes. Anyways, for a platoon player on the taxi squad that can play all over...

    Actually, it's not clear that refsnyder is that much of an upgrade over Dalbec as a platoon guy against lefties. Dalbec has pretty consistently hit lefties at an above average clip, he just can't hit a lick versus righties.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. Transferred to the 60 Day IL on 4/27.

    Choi/Refsnyder would actually be a potentially nice pairing. Looking at career splits, Choi hit righties at 120 wrc+, and Ref hit lefties at 111 wrc+.

    2024 NFL General Season News and Notes

    I do feel like, overall, folks on this board have been more positive about the guys graduating this year than in 2021. My recollection is that Wilson was sort of a LOL Jets pick, Lance was a "wow that's a lot to move up for a guy that's barely played" pick and folks were skeptical about Mac's...

    2024 NFL General Season News and Notes

    Does this close the door on the non- pick 1/1 QBs of the 2021 draft class? Wilson traded to Denver. Lance traded to Dallas. Fields traded to Steelers. Jones traded to Jags. Ok, Trask (2/64) is still with Tampa. Mills (3/67) is still with the Texans. Next QB I've never heard of (Ian booke) and is...

    Wave of mutilation: The latest injuries

    1B, 2B, SS, backup SS, 3B, RF, Giolito, Pivetta, and Whitlock. And I'm not sure how many relievers. That's a bingo!

    Dalbec sent down to AAA (recalled to BOS on 4/12)

    4/10/2024 - Uwasawa today's games?

    Remind me which deal Sandlin came in? For reasons unknown, possibly osmosis from reading these posts, I keep wanting to call these guys Norma Jean (Noah Dean), Sandman, and Sir Isaac Coffey. I might be cross-eyed and/or in dire need of sleep.

    Following Former Red Sox 2024...

    Lol obviously it's not over. After making tens of millions of dollars, and earning a world series ring, he's still playing baseball. Because Jackie Fucking Bradley Jr loves to play baseball. The fans of Long Island are in for a treat!
