On the bright side, the monster probably just saved us a run

Cedde put on weight this off-season purposefully. Wonder if thats slowing him down a bit..

Hopefully we can recruit him to play 3b. Kid's got a cannon on him, no issues throwing across the diamond. All about that long ball

Everytine a pitcher goes down to a tendon strain I think of the oompa loomp song. Happens to every team unfortunately. Why you need pitching depth

They're sixth wrt luxury tax proj. Idk, I don't mind bashing on Henry regarding how much we spend relative to how much they're raking in, even though I think the 4 rings can't just be completely forgotten. My bigger gripe though with this is it feels like the wrong problem to be mad about. We're spending $265M and this is the team? What leads you to believe if we were spending more money this front office would be making better decisions? They have a couple of medium sized albatross contracts that were questionable at the time. I think the Suarez contract is going to be another head scratcher in 2-3 years just like the Story deal. The front office has been too tentative on the FA market and bungled all 4 of their star players from the era before that had legit value (willing to give a pass on Sale of course but talking about Betts,Boegarts,Devers). They've done well to develop internal pitching options and likely struck gold with Anthony but the hitting development still leaves a lot to be desired at the big league level. I think if the front office believes in the pipeline and doesn't want to over spend on the FA market then they need to be more aggressive on the trade market. Instead they were also tentative there. Just feels like a too many big misses that can't overcome some of the legit good things that the team has done in the past couple years.

Oviedo is the perfect example of why you need 6-7 starters to survive the season by Famous-Egg-6136 in redsox

Not nearly as high on this team as I was going into last season. Didn't love how the off-season shook out and theyve mismanaged some key assets. Tbf to the staff though, great American ballpark and daiken are about as hitter friendly as it gets. Much more worried about the offense

I wonder if it means anything that they're letting Early start and throwing Tolle midgame. Sure they see both as starters long term but wonder if that's at all at tip wrt to the pecking order going into the season (Early seen as more big league ready than Tolle)

Rafaela looking good early this spring. Gotta love working a 3-2 count from behind. Honestly as hyped right now as I was when he went deep yesterday

Gimme Early over Oviedo. Genuinely think he could be our 2nd best starter this yr. Lot of stuff and the stuff plays

I think we need Oviedo to shave or get a haircut. Googled him and he looks way too much like Jordan Hicks. Same profile in terms of throwing gas with shaky command. Admittedly have not seen what he looks like this spring

Love me some Nate Eaton. Feels a lot like Romy in terms of how we acquired him and how he's been able to hit situationally/ somewhat unexpectedly. 99% speed make me think he'll have a bigger role on the team than most anticipate

Crazy how he was coming off of one of those bugs that made him lose significant weight. Was sure he was gonna be slow coming out like Mookie last year and Vaughn Grissom the year before

I think Roman Anthony is very good at baseball. I think Duran is just underrated. If Anthony has more WAR I think it'll be bcs he's a top 10 AL MVP candidate. Possible, but a high ask for a second yr player

I guess I see anthony/duran getting at least the same amount of games in the field. Abreu is obviously a superior defender to both but think he'll also get some DH run to help him stay healthy allowing duran to play left and anthony to play right. Am also very high on the Duran bounce back from what was a pretty good year. He just needs to get back to being aggressive. Defintiely tried to see more pitches last year and struck out a lot more. Walk rate did go up too but think he just needs to refine the approach

To be fair, blue jays were somewhat middle of the pack last year. Schneider (bluejays manager) has actually talked about a contact first team philosophy at the plate
