what are we doing

[SABR Boston @Boston_SABR]

Just a reminder that here at SABR, we don’t believe you have to have played baseball for a certain amount of time to “earn” the right to have your own opinion.

Any and all opinions are welcome! Whether it’s Day 1 or 10000 of your ⚾️ fandom! And we welcome them with open arms!

[Tony Wuench @twuench]

You didn't play baseball long enough, or at all, to understand the game & realize the pseudo "stats" your existence hinges upon have no logical basis in baseball (e.g. not analytical). You haven't earned the right to disagree w/me. Bill Mahrer nailed it. #SheGone

Mo was so nasty!

[SABR @sabr]

New @SABRbioproject: Mo Vaughn averaged 36 homers and 110 RBIs with the @RedSox from 1993-98, winning American League MVP honors in 1995: https://t.co/payLPhF5G2 #SABR

@Greg79190803 @redsoxstats He has not. Only 43.2 innings played at a different position than catcher defensively (5.2 on the mound, 38 at 1B)

[Jordan Leandre @JordanLeandre55]

Noticing Barnes is starting from the belt this Spring. Has always had a bit of separation between his chest-high hands.

Wonder if that was directed or if he decided to do that on his own #RedSox

[Jordan Leandre @JordanLeandre55]

Alex Cora: “We’re not rebuilding, if a player here isn’t thinking about winning a championship he better leave.”

[SABR BioProject @SABRbioproject]

Donning an old-school batting helmet is Carlton Fisk who played his first 11 seasons of his 24-yr #MLB career with @Redsox. Check out his @sabr bio https://t.co/KMWKlWtN9R

[SABR Boston @Boston_SABR]

Have to wonder how that changed once it was announced that players had access to in-game video.

Expect a HUGE year from JDM

Ted Williams, at age 39, became the highest paid @MLB_PLAYERS when on 2/6/1958 he signed a contract with the @RedSox for $135K a year; that's $1.238M in today's dollars.

In '58 a grandstand tix to @fenwaypark was $2.00, that's $18.34 today.

What’s next for Red Sox outfield after Hunter Renfroe signing? https://t.co/YchKP7zg0U

[Jordan Leandre @JordanLeandre55]

This would be a good get for the #RedSox

Not great last year at all (really bad, don’t look), but very steady from 17-19.

Not great defensively (-4 DRS last year) but could be a great, cheap option for the Sox

“Don’t let us win tonight!” #OTD in 2004, the @RedSox began their historic comeback in the ALCS, winning the first of four straight games against the rival Yankees. @SABRGames story by @RounderRedSox: https://t.co/5r1rvJ9VOL #SABR #postseason
