Red Sox/MLB 2025 Hot Stove - Mets land Juan Soto on 15-year, $765M deal

[Joe Zanussi]

This rotation is good. Run 6 man to start so we can gauge health. Need another bat or two and we’re ready to go.

 

[McGarnagle]

Have they made any indications of what Garrett Whitlock's role is going to be next year? If you've got Crochet/Buehler/Bello/Houck/Giolito/Kutter and Sandoval in reserve mid-season, kind of points to him being a short man in the bullpen, no? Which is probably the best use of him. But given the likelihood that at least two of three of those starters get hurt at some point, maybe they keep him stretched out to be a starter again?

 

[McGarnagle]

Wil Myers announced his retirement. He had a good career but never lived up to the hype after his great rookie year.

I'll always remember him for ole'ing that fly ball in game 1 of the 2013 ALDS

High-leverage relief.

‘The 3,000th permutation of the deal got it done’: How the Sox landed ace pitcher Garrett Crochet - The Boston Globe

Go inside the four days during Winter Meetings in which Craig Breslow and the Boston brass landed a much-needed hurler.

Sox talked with Pittsburgh about Jared Jones, Alex Speier reports.

Just got in - they announce Bregman yet ?

Bregman incoming?

Sounds like it

Devers will pull something and Bregman will move to third ~ as is he’s Pedroia with power at 2B

Yankees fans going to hate him

I like that he’s a cheater will fit in well in Boston sports

This is nice spend some money to make it look we are doing it.

Enjoy going to Fenway to hang out with tourists this year.

Is anyone aside of Boston and Detroit even interested at this point? I feel like teams are waiting and feel like they don't have to over extend to get him now.

Totally hedging doing nothing at the deadline because "Pitcher Coming off surgery" scheduled to return in September.

Remembering Hall of Famer Rickey Henderson: ‘I ended up loving him’ - The Boston Globe

A compelling case can be made that the one-time Red Sox outfielder, who died Friday at 65, was the most electrifying player of at least the last half-century.

[DKH]

Only 10 players to play 3,000 games and 3 died in 2024

Rickey Henderson would have been 66 Christmas

Is there anyone pitching that didn’t have TJ surgery? WTF. Cheap f***s. Another year I won’t going to Fenway. All moves made were to cheap out.
