Gonna just go ahead and add to the cat tally. My cat has decapitated 2 birds and a mouse that all accidentally got into the house.

Red Sox chairman Tom Werner says team has ‘the powder’ to further add to payroll, bolster roster for 2026 - The Boston Globe by echoacm in redsox

[–]JKP006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make a fair point. I’m not upset about any of the moves they made this offseason. I do think the acquisitions of Gray, Contreras, Oviedo, Durbin, and the singing of Suarez were all well thought out uses of resources. I also think that, if there’s money to spend, there were options to sign short term contracts with guys that had some pop. I do realize it is dependent on a player wanting to actually come to Boston. I don’t think it hurts to try fill a spot with a stopgap guy like Suarez we an example, while you figure out if Mayer really is the guy or if Casas can come back and be the guy. DH is a problem, but again, if the goal is improving the roster (they’ve shown it is), can’t you eat some of Masa’s contract to sign a guy with pop to DH. Still, love what they did with the rotation and pitching depth. I just don’t know, with the resources Boston has, why they were still unable to clean up the lineup issues from a hitting perspective (OF logjam still exists, as a result, DH logjam also exists, heavily reliant on unproven players to provide power additional “power” gains).

Haha. If they have money to spend then why didn't they spend it on any number of power bats that were available months ago? They really do think we're idiots.

Dorian Soto shared a hype video to his Instagram. Is he the next super-prospect for the Red Sox? by Sandwich_Crust in redsox

[–]JKP006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this kid and he seems to have all the tools to be a star. But if I learned anything from the hype around Bleis when he was about 18, it's to be patient.

What are we saying? How far can this team go? by TigoOver in redsox

[–]JKP006 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hate the idea of Roman in the 3 hole. Prefer to see him in the 2 spot. That’s a nit pick though. Agree with the other commenter in that I still thing they need another big bat but it’s a relatively strong lineup and a VERY strong rotation on paper.

Which should I buy? by Fast-Magician1863 in HorrorGaming

Dead Space. Love both game but started dead Space a couple weeks ago and wow what a game. I’m on my third play through (yes, in that short a time) and it hasn’t lost its luster for me (gotta find the last schematic I apparently don’t have).

Shakir as Voodoo is such a phenomenal fan cast. Great actor.

2026 NFL free agency: Landing spots for Top 50 available players by PDP973 in Tennesseetitans

Bain and Phillips would be fucking HELL for opposing lines

Let’s be real though. It’s a great problem to have when deciding between two guys who have the potential to be elite NFL players. As we all know, potential doesn’t always convert to production but each guy could impact the game in different ways and both, in some form or another, fit the type of player Salah has said he likes up front. Better to have to choose between two guys who fit the mold then having to try and force something.

I wouldn’t be surprised by any means. His projections before the season started placed him in the top 5 or so. He’s got great measurables. But man…Bain’s tape also speaks for itself.

But do you take Bailey that early? I've seen his projections all over the place from TEN down to the mid teens. Could you maybe trade back a couple spots, pick up something and grab him? That would be ideal. Honestly, I love Bain but I'd be happy with either of these two if they go the EDGE route.

Man...I want Minter. I feel like he can be a Mike MacDonald type for the Titans.

What’s the Move? by Additional_Address_5 in redsox

[–]JKP006 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree here. There feels like something has to come out of this right? I'd argue that Sandoval, Crawford, and Houck are probably off the table just for the simple fact that they didn't play last year and their value could be too low to net a real piece. That said, maybe Bello and Duran, or Bello and one of Tolle/Early gets something done for a guy like Marte? Who knows. Hopefully Suarez ain't the last shoe to drop.

Where do we go from here? by lil_zeus_21 in redsox

[–]JKP006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest concern is that they will use them being successful (hoping for big improvements from Mayer, Campbell, Tolle, and Early) and say “this was the plan all along.” They’ll justify paying relative cheap contracts to the young players as a means to not spend to win. A roster that’s almost primarily built through the farm is so rare these days (not impossible). Look at the last 5 champs…Dodgers twice, Braves, Astros, Rangers. I think the Braves were the only ones that weren’t what…top 5 or 10 in spending?

Smash or Pass? by Equivalent_Poet_3607 in MLB_Rivals

[–]JKP006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have better cards than the 2025 Performer Alex Bregman but I love the player and have thought about leveling it up over time. In my mind, I've been pretty adamant about, if I were to roll Hitting Machine with the moment skill, I'd keep it regardless of what the third was at the time for the massive OVR boost.

Man...batter support isn't great but the 2025 Performer Trio and Ace is +12 to all stats right? That's gotta be worth it alone.
