oldsox Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Red Sox sure have a bucket of worms here. They are in Year 2 of a 10-year deal. The only people smiling are Devers and his agent. It blows my mind how easy it is for agents to fleece the GM's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snopek Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I didn’t realize he’s already 28. I think he’ll still be an elite hitter for at least half that contract, but he’s already a full time DH with no real path back to the field, so he pretty much has to be an elite bat.

Harold's Leg Lift Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I'm in a HR pool and I wrote in Devers. I watched their game the other night and he looked completely lost at the plate and the announcers were saying how much he's struggling with the move to DH. He have until April 1 so I swapped him for Bregman. It's a long season but that doesn't look like a situation that's going to end well.

They only ones that like it are the aging players that can still hit a baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The biggest mistake was the Mookie Betts trade...they should have invested all their money into him and cast the one-dimensional Devers aside, if forced to choose between those two and Bogaerts, how has been a big disappointment so far in SD. They have the Top 15 in all of MiLB trio of Campbell-Anthony-Mayer and broke in a bunch of youngsters last year in Rafaela, Abreu and then Duran had a breakout season as well. It's all going to come down down to Trevor Story's health, starting pitching (health/effectiveness) and how long Alex Bregman can remain one of the best 3B in the majors.

Expand Yeah, that's why the Casas to Seattle for a SP chatter in the offseason was so interesting. Seemed like a great fit for both teams on paper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
