How about those RED SOX!

Went to the game tonight. One of the best games I've been to. Rodriguez looked fantastic, Papi was in 2004 form, and the middle of the lineup battered the Tigers pitching. Some concern for Brock Holt, looked like he tweaked his knee in the first inning and left in the 6th due to it.

would love to get freeman and unload ramirez as well

Unloading Hanley and/or Sandoval would be great.  I hated what they did last season and it worked out pretty close to how I expected.  I wanted to just go young and see who could swim.  Then spend money to fill the rest of the spots this year when the FA pool is much nicer.

I love Freeman but if he is too expensive I would be fine with Shaw at 1B.  Swihart, Shaw, Xander, Betts, Bradley, and Castillo would give us a very talented young core.  We also have Moncada waiting in the wings to replace Pedey eventually.

definitely. i was excited about sandoval and ramirez last year because i figured it would put some pop back into the lineup, but their struggles on defense essentially negated any positives on offense. really hope we move away from splurging on big name FA's that are entering their early 30's or late 20's like Cueto.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
