.@Buster_ESPN on the Red Sox:
“What I’ve heard today is, they’re aggressively looking for a right-handed hitter… It might be a case where the Red Sox are willing to take on a bad contract.”
(via the Just Baseball Show // @JustBB_Media)
@BenCampb_ But I get it, the Red Sox can do no wrong in your eyes and you’re more than satisfied with the bull shit product we have to watch every year. Glad you’re satisfied with it
@BenCampb_ He did a great job moving prospects for major league talent. Go ahead and tell me one of those prospects you’d want back and any move he made. I’ll wait
@BenCampb_ Tell me any level where Mayer was a good to great offensive player. Did he dominate at any level? No! So yeah, a guy who didn’t dominate anywhere in the minors I should be thrilled that he’s an every day player. Wooo yayyy
@BenCampb_ No, you act like a big market team and have intelligent human beings running your organization and you determine the prospects are you know are going to be good at the major league level. Please tell me any level Mayer was good at with the bat? Please tell me
@BenCampb_ Fans like you acted like Mayer was the next great shortstop in the game. No fanbase in the sport overrates their prospects more than Red Sox fans
@BenCampb_ Only thing I’m positive about is this roster sucks and Craig Breslow needs to be fired. I’m not saying anything positive about this dumpster fire of an organization
Franklin Arias is now a top 5 prospect in baseball, according to @BaseballAmerica:
4. Franklin Arias
43. Anthony Eyanson
88. Justin Gonzales
Kyson Witherspoon fell out of their top 100.
Anthony Seigler fascinated me a ton when he got dealt here. Pat Murphy was a big fan of him with the Brewers. It sucked he wasn’t healthy all spring.
He’s been impressive in Triple-A though. 127 PA - .298/.425/.471/.896 - 3 HR - 7 2B - 15 K% - 17.3 BB% - 140 wRC+ - .372 xwOBA.

David Ortiz on John Henry being worried about the state of the Red Sox:
"He knows the direction of this team and he's worried about the team's situation more than what people think he is… I sat down to talk to John, and he wants to figure it out. He wants to have the formula to go back to the old days”
