Bold to have Jesse Scholtens as the OD starter, but I'll trust Katz and Pedro. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird seeing Beni at 3, but I prefer Robert at #2. Put your best hitter at #2 seems to be the right move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4uckOffCommieScum Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I guess Grifol saved the regulars for the home opener, not realizing you’ll actually find way more Sox fans at East Valley games like yesterday at Tempe.

Benefit of the WBC years is most the regulars getting their hacks in early in spring. Wish I was down there, it's fucking miserable here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haseley isn't really needed with the various roster moves, so unless he tears up Charlotte I wouldn't expect to see him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 (edited) The Mariners have big bats in Julio Rodríguez and Teoscar Hernández, a platoon situation between former Sox fan favorite AJ Pollock (for declining his option) and SoxTalk's/Harold's very own Jarred Kelenic and an athletic utility outfielder in Sam Haggerty...and just signed former Sox FA target Kole Calhoun on Friday. Next, I know former Roy Kyle Lewis was traded to AZ...same fate for Taylor Trammell? Nope. (Former Top 30 Milb prospect would merit a look by Sox if the wheels somehow fell off due to key injuries and a prospect/suspect trade could be consummated. Boatload of defensive talent and athleticism...swing and miss issues galore, though.) Crowded OF picture even with Haniger to SF as well. Doesn't even count Dylan Moore as super utility.

Looks like Cairo, Menechino and Narron out of work for now. McEwing to Cards' bench coach as favorite/prodigal son returns to Cardinal Nation.

DirtySox Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I haven't paid much attention to spring training gamethreads yet. Are we just enjoying baseball being back, or are we onto the phase of teethgnashing about not winning meaningless games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 (edited) Nine years flashed by quickly...leaving Leury the longest tenured somehow. https://www.mlb.com/news/jose-abreu-makes-astros-debut-at-spring-training “A lot of things were,” Abreu said when asked what was weird. “The colors of the jerseys were weird, the climate here in Florida is a little bit different [than the Cactus League] and a little bit weird and obviously, new teammates I’m just starting to get to know, but very fortunate and very appreciative of where I am at right now. It’s just the beginning.” As for Leury, Alex Rios trade seems like TWO decades ago...KW outsmarting himself going with ability/potential over actual performance.
