Good line by Merloni. " in a season where the team has been inconsistent, it has been consistent in its bad defense"

Leadoff walk to the ninth hitter who advances to third on a throwing error and scores on a ball to the third baseman wow this team is annoying af to watch

Checking in on the Red Sox defense: -52 OAA to lag the league. 2nd place has -19.

DOB pumping up Story and it coming out so bad cracks me up. Lots of words, little relevance

Adam Duvall really isn’t an everyday player. He’s a good complimentary player though

Checking in on the Red Sox defense: -52 OAA to lag the league. 2nd place has -19. Just gotta upgrade the rotation, offense, and defense next season, should be easy enough! If you go position by position there's definitely a clear path to upgrade the defense: 1B - Casas I think will improve, 1B OAA numbers seem to be prone to big fluctuations 2B - Arroyo was uncharacteristically bad, Urias or Reyes are closer to average than what he's been 3B - Devers you don't expect to be better but he clearly is capable of it SS - Kiké --> Story is like a 20 OAA swing LF - Duran might be average here CF - Rafaela could be a big plus RF - Verdugo is already solid Not saying they will move Yoshida to DH and add Rafaela but this is at least a reasonable scenario where they probably get to an average or above average overall defense

This guy sucks. This guy sucks worse. This guy sucks but it’s Bloom’s fault. This guy is never there for the fans and I’d assume his family as well.

If we could get something decent for Verdugo in a trade this off season I’d be fine with bringing back Duvall and then to start easing in Rafaela.
I’d hold onto Verdugo and let Duvall go if we can’t get something good for Verdugo though.
