Rafael Montero off the board. He re-signed with Houston.

Want to feel old? Josh Taylor is the 5th longest tenured player on the 40 man right now!

The free agents OF'ers are not terribly good fits for these Red Sox. I don't see them dishing out the money for Judge or Nimmo, so that kinda only leaves Yoshida (not a great fit), Conforto (risky) and Haniger as potential fits. I think it's more likely they go the trade route for the OF. Laureano? Varsho?

Red Sox don't have anyone in Australia, but old friends list: Adelaide Giants: none Brisbane Bandits: none Canberra Cavalry: Justin Erasmus (reserve list), Boss Moanaroa, Jake MacKenzie Melbourne Aces: Daniel McGrath Perth Heat: Josh Reddick (officially his retirement tour, which is kind of cool) Sydney Blue Sox: non (Kind of stunned there's no Beau Bishop...) You forgot Tzu-Wei Lin on Auckland Tuatara

If you told me before the season that none of Xander, J.D., Bobby, Story, Kiké and Verdugo would surpass 17 home runs I would've thought you're crazy.

The front office and Cora are probably on a really short leash next year, like a month into the season short leash. The suck this year has been multi-Factorial, but this team is miserable in the sum is greater than it’s parts sort of way. Either Bloom can figure it out or he can’t. I think he can’t, that Bloom is a really sharp mind that isn’t suited to the big chair. I have only been following the Sox for 19 years, but this is by far the least engagingly, most worthless team that I can remember. That's some recency bias. 2012, 2014, 2015 and 2020 come to mind.

Bello is giving me Fausto Carmona vibes, really good stuff but vulnerable to solid opposite field approaches Edit: what a play by Kiké wow Roberto Hernandez also comes to mind

Cora needs to pull Schreiber, he shouldn’t be throwing this many pitches… His velo seems down all inning.

The NESN broadcast just had a graph up that said Refsnyder is a FA at season's end. That's not true right?

How is he not related to Yoenis and Yoelqi Cespedes?

Great to hit on another international star. I love when we dish out big bonuses to young elite potential. Sometimes it doesn’t work out (diaz, flores, Castillo ) but when it does work out we smash (Devers, Bogaerts) That darn Daniel Flores! Dying of complications from cancer treatment at 17! I suppose it is true that it didn't work out, but I'm not sure that's the language I'd use. I think he referred to Antoni Flores.

My guess is still more likely to be no on those two, but definitely would not rule them out. For all we know Zayas got over slot. It might be the reason he opted to go pro. So he ended up getting 'only' 47,5K. Kinda surprising!

I feel like we always struggle against Urquidy. I didn't bother to look it up. Anyone knows a quick way to do that?

So BA is much higher on Valdez than Abreu. Law and Fangraphs have it the other way around. MLB haven't updated their list yet...
All in all, seems like a decent return for Vazquez. And they're close to the big leagues. Seems to match with the idea that Bloom wants to contend again asap.
